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 reviewI stayed at Chania Design Suits with my girlfriend and we absolutely loved it. The apartment is comfortable and smart and has everything you need, it is perfectly located and close to everything with the port of Chania and the old city accessible with a short pleasant walk. And Vangelis is the perfect host: he welcomed us and was so helpful and gave us so many great tips and suggestions, we highly appreciated it and cannot wait to come back!

Verified reviewVery cozy and lovingly furnished and decorated apartment with a lot of stuff so that definitely nothing was missing, also air conditioning. And a very kind and hospitable host who gives a lot of good tips about Crete.
Bed mattresses are very firm. For big people it is good or for someone who likes it. But I am a small person and so it was not so good for me personally.

Verified reviewSpotless clean, very spacious, great shower and beds, wonderful balcony. Details are extremely curated, from welcome treats to first aid kid and sewing kit in the bathroom. Nothing is missing. It’s a 10 min walk to the old center, in the evening it was nice to be away from the noise. Plenty of parking places for the car around the apartment, but the ktel station is also 5 min away. Vangelis was super helpful and even offered to call a doctor when our baby got sick. We could not recommend his place more!
Everything was perfect

Verified reviewThis apt. is modern, clean and comfortable, tastefully decorated. The owner has made a real effort here. Air conditioning was appreciated because it was hot during our stay. The washing machine (with English guide!) was appreciated for the same reason. There is cooking equipment, dishes, etc. which we didn’t use. Two sofas provide comfortable seating. On-street parking close by, easy to find. The apt is on the upper level of a 2-story building with outside stairs. There’s a small table and chairs outside on the walkway in front of the unit, to watch the world go by. It’s an easy 12-15 min. walk to Old Town and the harbor with lots of restaurants and shops. We felt safe walking back at 11 pm (keeping eyes & ears open as in all cities) although few people were around. We’d happily stay here again.
There’s not much in the neighborhood which is not a complaint. Maybe a coffee shop a couple of blocks away. Just to be aware you have to go closer to the harbor area to find places to eat or shops.

Verified review- Apartment is very well equipped - Very clean - Owner is very nice - Parking in the street near the apartment
- Wi-Fi was not working well (so have a mobile data plan if you need to contact the owner) - A bit far from the center (although in a distance of about 15 minutes walking)

Verified reviewA very modern 1 bedroom apartment with a living space, kitchen and bathroom. Lovely decor, very comfortable and clean! Very nice host who left us with delicious pies and a wine bottle upon entrance. He also can provide you with information about Crete.
The only downfall I would say could be the location. It is around a 15min walk from the port of Chania. Which is obviously still very doable.
