How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Verified reviewGreat location, not far from beach and promenade. Comfortable room, friendly staff especially at reception and in the downstairs restaurant
Some facilities werent working- for us hot water would work in the morning but would in the evening or when their technician tested which was odd. Walls very thin, unfortunately had people arrive next door at 3am and could not have best sleep.

Verified reviewVery friendly staff, a very relaxing swimming pool area at the top, perfect to get some peace.
Not being allowed to consume any food or drinks in the hotel room (apart from water) - I was informed of this upon arrival. I need a small snack in the night for my own physical well being, so I disagree with this rule being implemented.

Verified reviewThe room was excellent, nice and big, however, it was let down by the quality of the furniture installed, there was no closable cupboard, and all the furniture was cheaply made. The bed was also excellent, however, the balcony was not big enough for 1 person to sit, let alone share with the family. Additionally, the division between the neighbours room on the balcony was missing. Rooftop pool and bar area was the best part of the hotel, with staff being very pleasant and polite.
Breakfast, was a huge disappointment, despite it being a 4 star hotel, the breakfast was from a 2 star. We were told that we would get reserved loungers on the beach, but we had 4 days where we only had two loungers, and were 'refused' to have a 3rd by the beach attendant, who despite him telling us he would call the manager, it was not until we complained at reception did we get anything changed, and then only for 1 day. We had to cross a busy road to get to the beach. The roof top pool, had two many people at any one time, and some guests were taking photos underwater!

Verified reviewWe stayed for night and we had a great night and then we went out there for dinner.food nice and simple and beautiful atmosphere. Nice and calm .Bed 10/10 room with an air conditioner. Staff were so friendly and welcoming. Traditional Albanian breakfast with an other choice of food. Ladies in the morning let us stay and used facilities after checking out. We had flight at 8 pm so it would be long day to wondering around. Honestly thank you so much . Hope to see you again in the future.
I would say roof top should be for adults only because the beach is literally 2 minutes away . So families can have time with their children there Roof top is nice to be only for adults so it could be more comfortable and romantic for couples 😃

Verified reviewThe location was really good, close to the beach and restaurants. Great sea-view from the roof-top pool (none of the rooms have see view).
I was unpleasantly surprised with the WI-FI speed, I was constantly losing connection (from the room and the balcony). I was mislead with the good reviews in relation to the internet... Also, I shocked to hear that we were not allowed to consume even fruits in the room or the balcony. I get it in a way as they could've had issues in the past with some guests but that is not a good enough reason not to be allowed to even have a fresh fruit (peach / nectarine) in the balcony. There is no room service. Lastly be prepared and make sure you bring towels for the pool as those are not provided and using the hotel towels in the pool area is prohibited. If you are ok with a loud noise (music) from the shisha bar next door till 12am then you will be ok, but if you are looking for a more relaxed place then probably this will not be the right choice for you (personal preference).
