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):
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.
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.).

BelgiumHonestly it was nearly perfect. I think maybe the food could be a bit better and the restaurant area a bit cleaner but honestly it was nothing important.
I was sad to only stay one night. The staff is super nice. The room was good and comfortable, there is everything that you need (towels, balcony, etc.) The terrace and the beach are super nice. The breakfast is good, there is a lot of choice and fresh orange juice!

United KingdomNothing really to say here, apart from that I often struggle with those modern thick pillows. A choice would be nice, especially as the mattresses were on the medium to firm.
Lovely start to our holiday on Crete. We had only booked a night, but if returning to North Coast near Chania would consider this hotel for a longer stay. So close to the beach, lovely room decor and service. Amazing bathroom, too.

United KingdomNothing!
The room was spacious and stunning. Really well equipped. And a nice drying rack attached to the wall on the property. The food is home cooked, nothing fancy but delicious and not over priced. Breakfast pancakes were delicious and their version of Cretan salad was yummy. The home made lemoncello which they left in the room and served after meals (offering a choice of that and Ouzo) Beach bed policy was not to charge on days with a lot of cloud or some rain even though lots of is still used them for at least some of the day.

PolandWe stayed there for 7 days and used the apartment mainly to access all of the attractions in this part of the island. So we did not use beach or other services. But the apartment was very good, clean, quite, we enjoyed terrace to rest in the evening. Very good breakfast. There is a pool as well. We did not use it, as we traveled everyday somewhere. Very good location with easy access to main street in Platanias and parking right at the building. So it had all we wanted. :-)
