Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

IrelandI would recommend a renovation because the furniture and the interior decoration are quite old. However it was super clean
The people make the difference in this place! Very welcoming, they gave us all the smart tips for the island, they were vey easy and flexible! The apartment was very clean and at a very good location. They were cleaning it every day and they were changing the towels which is quite rare! Only 15 minutes from Apollonia and 5 minutes from the local beach which was very nice.

New ZealandSo cute! The hosts are such lovely people, they are so generous with all these foods in the room and she was always so helpful and sweet when we had any questions. She gave us traditional almond flour cookies as we were leaving. Lots of cats around if you’re into them. Great beach walking distance. Very nice experience!

It is not easy to feel like at home when you are in a foreign country, but somehow Mihaela and her daughter managed to make us feel like we belonged there. Mihaela doesn’t speak a lot of English but somehow we managed to understand each other, she even invite us some delicious stuffed tomato and home made bread one night. Her daughter on the other hand was very nice and speaks perfectly English and Spanish! The apartment is cozy, very comfortable and in a great location, just few minutes from the beach and 10 from the Chora. Opening the door and seeing that beautiful view every morning was a gift. Please don’t lose this magic and take care of my little family of cats :)

GreeceOur hosts Michaela and Kostas were very welcoming to the point that offered us a warm Greek meal that they just prepared for their family, discreet and very informative. Every day our room was thoroughly cleaned, with fresh bed sheets, in the style of Michaela. After our trip, we were welcomed with a spotless room (really clean), fully equipped fridge. Really close to three of the best beaches on the island, like Faros, apokofto and glyphos beach. On Faros in about 5 mins distance from our room, we found an excellent restaurant named "Limanaki" with fresh fish and amazing shrimp pasta, warm and welcoming staff.

Mihaela is a fantastic host. I was greeted by Mihaela and her daughter. The room is clean, well equipped, lots of food including breakfast essentials, ham, cheese, water and not to mention Mihaela kept bringing me home cooked food daily! Mihaela was very kind during my stay and also helped me with my washing. Thank you for a perfect stay and I’ll be sure to come back.

GreeceIt was dirty, unlike the high score in cleanliness. The pillow case was strained with something brown on it. In the pictures and in many reviews it was mentioned that the fridge had cheese and Ham for the bread, while in reality there was none. One of the reasons we picked this over other hotels was due to the food that was mentioned as an extra. In our case there must have been an exception as we didn't find the expected food in the fridge. The WiFi was ok but not that strong as the high score implied. There was no shampoo or shower gel, only soap bars. The window's mesh panel in the toilet had holes, so insects could enter. There was no road sign and the maps pointer was placed a little bit down the road, so sometimes I missed the parking's entrance. There was only one functioning light in the bedroom, the others didn't work.
There was available parking. Good to have both air conditioning and a fan available.

SpainThe room has a beautiful view over the town and the sea from where you can see a beautiful sunset. The place is owned by a family. Communication was easy and they kindely picked me up from the bus stop. They also offered some food in the room. There is a beautiful path that takes you to town in 30 min by foot. If you dont have a car (like me) the location might not be the best.

VenezuelaMihaela is truly exceptional. She received us like family, allowed us to do an early check in to rest after our trip and filled the fridge with a lot of goodies! After we rested she made sure to bring us her delicious mussaka! The place has everything you need for your Greek summer adventures, comfortable, clean (and Mihaela made sure to clean it everyday with so much care!), conveniently located near beaches and the two main villages of the island but quiet enough to have a good night sleep after discovering Sifnos. The view from the terrace is, along with Mihaela’s hospitality, a true pleasure that makes you want to go back. To top up, she insisted for us to do a late check up for us to take our late boat back to Athens fully rested. Cannot recommend this place enough!
