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.).

Excellent location,close to sea.Stores and lokantas around,good food,decent prices. Supermarket 7 min walk,close ATMs.Excellent beach called Havana,free sunbeds but you must but a coffee, sodas juice.. Good food at Havana beach,sea food a little expensive but it's worth the grilled ones. There are stones at the entrance in the sea,bring swimming shoes!!!!

PolandWhat could be changed: - No utensils for the microwave; something like a glass (better) or plastic bowl for cooking is needed. - The frying pan is very bad, it should be changed. What cannot be changed, but please be aware: - The bathroom has a small shower stall that can be closed with a curtain, but water still ends up on the floor. No worries, though! There's a drain hole and a mop to help with that. :-) - As is the case almost everywhere in Greece in summer, remember to take mosquito repellents with you (or buy them in local shops).
Great localization. First, one can take a direct bus to/from the airport and Heraklion. Then, it is 170 meters to the sea. Plenty of grocery stores. The place is quiet (only one evening there was a concert in a hotel nearby). Other than that, no noise from the street or people. Excellent wireless internet!!! There is a drying rack on the balcony. Also, there is a patio space. Great air conditioning in the apartment, and it is well placed on the wall. Good and comfortable bed.

It was cleaned every second day and the towels and sheets were exchanges also. The host gave us spare blanket and sheets when requested. The neighborhood was safe a nd quiet. The entrance was beautiful. I loved the place.

Very nice and pleasant owners, picturesque garden in front of the house, well-kept building. The room is large and spacious, with a comfortable but old renovation. The shower may seem small. Distance to the sea - 2 minutes on foot, public transport stop - 3 minutes on foot, very convenient to get from the city center by bus.

CroatiaThe shower is a bit narrow and the shower curtain sticks to you which means it's either awkward to take a shower or you're going to flood the bathroom a little. We also had ants in the kitchen in our ground floor apartment, so don't think about leaving food on the counter. But these are all minor things.
The location is right next to the beach that was never crowded. A bus stop that takes you to the city center is also very close. The owners are nice and the place is clean. There's even room cleaning service which was a pleasant surprise for us.

The location of the apartment was great. very close to the beautiful beach of Ammoudara. We loved having two balconies, one on the beautiful garden and one with sea view. We very much enjoyed having breakfast and dinner facing the sea.. Shops, services, bus stop are within walking distance from the apartment. The host Maria, with parents Yannis and Nike are very kind and very helpful.

ItalyGood internet signal but not the best speed. It's fine for normal but non-business use. I suggest mosquito nets on all doors/windows to leave them open on cool evenings instead of using the air conditioner.
Apartment completely renovated with style and equipped with everything you need. Very clean. Equipped with microwave, balcony with table and chairs, private parking. The owners live in the structure so they are always ready to solve any problem. It is located a few meters from the sea and in a lively but at the same time not crowded area. Excellent base for visiting the eastern part of the island.

RomaniaThe kitchen furniture was very outdated -old, like going back in time 15 years ago. (we only use if for coffee) The bathroom had a small shower basin 60cmx60cm (I am very slim) with a shower curtain that could not be used and looked very unhealthy. The bathroom was flooding on each shower... it was a 2 star bathroom.. You can see the sea, but the palms in the pictures are no longer there...
The studio was clean, the bedroom was refurbished, There was a plastic filter for coffee, but we asked for an Italian style simple expresser that was provided. They changed the towels and swept the floors after 2 nights.

HungaryPretty much the only problem: no mosquito nets on the main doors to the two balokny, therefore nights are uncomfortable when there is no crosswind in the room. Please put on the retracteable nets! On both balkony doors. No mikrowave.
The best view in my 18-years experience. Top floor rooms (4,2) have direct seaview blakony in the best price when compared to adjacent apartments and hotels. Constant crosswind, which means no need to use AC! Two balkonies per apartment! Very friendly family keeping up the block.
