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.).

North MacedoniaI would not list it like dislike, but it would be nice if there were bathroom curtains, because on every bath we took, the whole toilet was covered with water😆
- Very close to the center of Kolymvari and on 20minutes car ride to Chania. Also it was on pretty good location to all the famous beaches worth visit. - You have parking space provided. - The swimming pool was a good bonus. - We had new, clean towels everyday. - You have close supermarket and tavernas.

PolandI didn't like the most the fact that shower head was not mounted on the wall and we were forced to hold it. I hate when owners do that. If it's for saving water, it doesn't work, it only makes me take showers longer. Besides that bathroom had everything we needed, water was hot any time of the day. The bed was double indeed, but just enough for 2 people, far from king/queen size. Also very soft, if that matters for you, definitely too soft for my taste or my partner's. WiFi worked well most of the time, but occasionally stopped working for 20-30 minutes. Mobile reception was good (5G), so we could use it as a backup.
Location is quite good, I am glad we didn't end up in Chania, which is highly overrated and overpriced. There are enough restaurants and shops within 5-10 minute ride (you must have a car), but also a bakery and a small groceries in a walking distance. The beach is accessible within 10 minute walk, too. One with rocks and one with sand a little further, but still close enough. The location is good for exploring Western part of the island including Kissamos, Elafonisi, Falasarna, Chania and, a little further, Rethymno. Room was clean and serviced every second day and was spacious and had a small kitchen annex, but with everything you need to make breakfast or supper, including kitchen utensils. AC worked quiet enough to sleep. Small terrace with chairs, table and clothesline was also a useful addition.

United KingdomAs a swimming pool engineer I found the suction pipes in the deep end of the pool to be uncovered without an antivortex safety cover over. A small child could be sucked onto the pipe and die. In UK the pool would be closed. On the plus side we really enjoyed the spacious pool.
We ate breakfast out every day.

IrelandThank you karmi for a very memorable stay. The apartment was immaculately clean , with beautiful pool and breakfast facilities for a small charge. The apartment complex was so quiet at night , which was perfect for me. As a solo traveller, I felt very safe. There was always a member of staff on site. The location was perfect , with the choice of supermarkets close by. The Village of Kolymvari & beach were within walking distance, or you could take the bus , bus stop was across the road, with buses running frequently. I look forward to making many more returns to Karmi Apartments. 😊 Thank you Karmi Báirbre Ireland 🇮🇪

PolandFree wifi working in the room, FRIDGE with small REFRIGIRATOR, very close to the beach, near to the shops when you could buy what you like, POOL at the place <3 open from 10:00 (10 am) to 20:00 (8 pm). Air-conditioning at the room ❤️ We have stayed one extra night and the landlord was very helpful and charged us very little for the extra night 😉 Great location for seeing the west side od the Crete, you nearly have to pass the hotel location to go anywere on this side of the Crete (Falassarna, Balos, Elafonnisi). Higly recommended 😄

United KingdomNot that there was anything we 'didn't like' but they seem to be missing out on potential money making options. There are no poolside drinks or snacks provided, although there does appear to be a catering area with tables and chairs on a terrace. Although to be fair, the majority of guests do appear to be using it as a base to explore from. We were the only people around the pool the majority of the time.
We stayed in what appears to be the newer single storey build. The bed was so comfortable, lovely clean white sheets. Kitchen area was spotless, I imagine the cupboards are cleaned out after every stay, washing up liquid and a sponge were provided. Chopping board, sharp knives, cutlery, kettle etc all provided and spotlessly clean. A hairdryer was also provided. Washing up bowl in bathroom to rinse clothes out in. Excellent location, bakery for fresh bread in the morning was a two minute walk. Supermarkets within a few minute walk. Bus stops near by. Walking distance to Kolimbari or Tavronitis. We had a late flight and were allowed to keep the room on rather than vacate in the morning.

ItalyThe only minus was the shower. It is an open one and there is no way to hang the hand shower on the wall. But even if at the beginning we thought that would create a mess in the bathroom, the drainage system on the floor keeps everything in order!
The place is super functional and nice, all you need is there. Kitchen tools, a comfy bed, a nice balcony that fits a table and two chairs, and a quiet swimming pool to relax on those days you want to stay nearby. All the services you need are max 5-minute walk. A big plus is that if you are not a big adventurer the beach in front of Karmi, Rapaniana Beach, is very nice. For the adventurers, Karmi Apartments is located in a very strategic area. All the best beaches of the west part of Crete are reachable in a maximum of one hour by car! I would like to mention also the kindness of the owner who last minute gave us the possibility to add one unplanned extra night at the end of our stay. Karmi Apartments has also parking lots and a garage.

AustraliaThere was a bit of an ant problem, but no big deal if you're careful about not leaving any food, etc, out.
The room is basic but clean and good size, and really has all that's needed. Rubbish was removed daily, plus sheets and towels replaced every second day. A good location to be at if you plan to explore the western side of Crete. Close to Chania and a good supermarket is not far down the road. The pool is a big bonus.
