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 reviewWe absolutely loved our stay. This is a charming little guesthouse run directly by the owners, surrounded by fruit trees — truly a beautiful place and an ideal stop either before or after visiting the Shala River or Lake Koman. The hospitality we received from Arturo was beyond excellent; he treated us wonderfully and even helped us resolve a small issue in the most generous and unconditional way. It is rare and refreshing to meet people as kind and honest as him. We also loved the special breakfast set-up they prepared for us in the middle of the fruit trees — such a beautiful experience, and the food was absolutely delicious. There is also a restaurant within walking distance, where you can have dinner or lunch, managed by another part of the family, which we also highly recommend.
The only point to mention is that one of the rooms we booked required sharing a bathroom between two families, which can be slightly inconvenient, though we were informed that a renovation is already planned (the rest of the rooms have their own private bathroom). In any case, the outstanding attention and kindness we received made this a minor detail, and we still give the highest rating to this beautiful place. 100% recommended.
We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the consideration you showed us, and we thank you for the friendly language you showed us, we wish you the most beautiful holidays everywhere, full of health and happiness in your lives 🙂

Verified reviewThe place is near the ferry parking spots, the hosts were good and the breakfast was amazing.
It was hard to get there because the signaling was not clear, we had to ask in a nearby restaurant. Also a bit expensive for what it is, compared with many other european countries.
I don't know what you call expensive. Your accomodation was 50€ including the breakfast. Moreover, 3 people can be accomodated to the room. I personally have visited many countries even overseas and only the breakfast in hotels with low score the breakfast costs no less than 15€/person.

Verified reviewThis was by far one of the if not the most amazing experience I had in an accommodation. Everyone working there is really nice and always there if you need something. The view and surroundings are amazingly beautiful with various fruit trees surrounding the house and a terrace from which you can enjoy the sun. The breakfast was like everything else really good with a mix of different foods and a homemade fig jam.
Thank you for the consideration you showed, we are grateful to each of you, we work together with the family on all the details so that you feel as comfortable as possible with us, we wish you all the best everywhere, Thank you 🙂

Verified reviewOur stay at Lakeview Escape Koman was short but a pleasant and cozy experience. We only needed the place for a single overnight stay so we could continue our journey on Lake Koman. We stayed with a truly hospitable and kind host family. Armando and his family really made us feel at home. It was (and still is) a wonderful little and very peaceful place. Armando was friendly and welcoming, just like the rest of his family. The breakfast was perfectly fine. We truly felt welcome and would gladly recommend the place to others. Armando was kind enough to offer us a ride to the ferry so we could get out on Lake Koman – and even picked us up again the next day. He had a hard time accepting a tip, which shows how humble and polite he is.
Nothing negative to say about the place.
We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your appreciation, we are glad you had a great time, our family wishes you all the best wherever you are❤️🖐🏻

Verified reviewVery good experience. We were welcomed by a young couple who did everything to make their guests feel at home. Very tidy room, lovely garden, homemade breakfast. We booked a boat tour of Komani Lake and Shala River through them. Everything was well organized: the host took us to the starting point and brought us back after the tour. There is a small restaurant nearby where you can have a delicious and inexpensive dinner. We wish the young, sincere and hardworking couple success)
Our family thanks you from the bottom of our hearts for the consideration you showed us, we try with every opportunity we have to make every tourist feel comfortable and at home, we wish you all the best everywhere ❤️
