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.).

CanadaThere is nothing
The family that runs this place is fantastic. So friendly, accommodating and helpful. This was our first time in Crete and they were helpful to teach us how to bus around and to get us organized to hike Samariá gorge (which was different for us because we weren’t coming back but rather carrying on to Sfakia for a few days. We had balconies facing the ocean and a quick walk around the corner to get to Apostoli Beach. The facility itself is quaint, has AC and was kept very clean

GermanyI wish there was a breakfast option
The location is great, just three minutes from the beach. The apartment is neat and tidy, has different kitchen appliances. You can see the sea from the balcony of the room where I was staying. The host is nice and professional. It is a budget friendly stay, but excellent as one

GreeceThe accommodation was excellent in every aspect: size, facilities, comfort and proximity to the beach, bars et al. The specific one had fully functional smart TVs (thanks to the internet connectivity mentioned below) in the bed and the living rooms, which is a nice feature. The internet connectivity that the hotel offered was excellent, something that many many other properties did not have. I would love to return to the property to work remotely for a while from Chania! The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, giving useful hints and tips!

PortugalThe apartment was really cozy and the beach view was breathtaking. But the best part was Adonis and his wife. We felt super well received. And when our flight to go back was cancelled, they were extra supportive. I cannot recommend enough... Thank you so much for making our time in Crete feeling like home :D

GermanyThere was not something we didn't like in particular -- it is a great place for an apartment stay. If you are coming for facilities like pool or bar, perhaps it is not the right choice.
Hosts were very attentive and nice, the hotel is in great proximity to the beach. It is also clean, and has everything one might need for a comfortable stay (kitchen, balcony, etc.)
