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.).

No complaints.

Verified reviewSuper nice host who met us upon arrival and showed us the accommodation. The complex was very welcoming, nice and clean. Also just a few minutes walk from the sea. We asked for advice on restaurants, places to visit and where to buy food to hopefully avoid the tourist traps. We got the best tips ever. Thank you so much Doriana with family.
If I could have wished for anything more it would be a balcony. There were of course balconies but not in our particular apartment.

Verified reviewGreat place to enjoy summer holidays. New, modern, extremely clean, spacious apartments with everything what you need during the whole stay. Parking in garage without overheated car is a big plus. Few minutes to the beach by walk. Not overcrowded areas, quiet surroundings. And the biggest plus is the owner Doriana, who is always ready to help with everything, so many tips for restaurants, activities, shops. We were happy to meet her everyday around and to have a small talk. We were leaving relaxed and happy that we’ve found place like this. Thanks!

Verified reviewWe had a fantastic stay at this apartment! It was absolutely spotless honestly, we've never stayed in such a clean place before. Everything we needed was there, from kitchen essentials to little thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. The owner was incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay, which made the experience even more special. Her warm hospitality truly stood out. Thanks to all of this, we are definitely planning to come back again. Highly recommended.
We loved everything about our stay.

Verified reviewEverything was amazing! The property is easy to find, it’s in a clean, quiet area, perfect for a relaxing holiday. The nearest beach is a 5 minute walk, and if you feel like exploring, there are plenty of other beaches relatively close by! The accommodation is super cosy, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and the entire apartment is air conditioned, which is crucial in the summer heat (and each window has shades, which comes in handy if you prefer to sleep in pitch-black darkness :p). The kitchen is equipped with everything you need, and every appliance works perfectly (we were especially excited about the coffee machine!). The bathroom is spacious, the shower has very good pressure, AND the water was warm even when the last of the group took a shower! The icing on the cake was the hostess, Doriana. She contacted us before our arrival and was very fast at replying whenever we had a question. She explained everything to us, gave us some tips on what to do in the town, and we truly felt cared for. This was the perfect stay for a relaxing holiday. ABSOLUTELY recommended, would stay again!!! :)

Verified reviewCommunication with the owner, Doriana, was great from before we even arrived. She was so kind and accommodating about everything, and answered all questions we had quickly. The apartment itself was clean, comfortable and located a short walk from the beach. The appliances (washing machine, dishwasher, oven, stove, fridge) were all new and worked perfectly. There were pots and pans, cooking utensils, cutlery, plates, cups... Truly everything we needed to eat at the apartment and plenty of space to cook comfortably. The air conditioner worked extremely well. We even turned it off in the evening because it had cooled the apartment down so well during the day. The nights were calm, quiet and relaxing, and the beds were very comfortable and spacious. There was also plenty of closet space to put everything away. We've never felt so at home in a vacation apartment!
The only possible criticism would be tiny things, like that it would have been nice to have a bit more plates and cutlery so we wouldn't have to run the dishwasher so often. We also had a pretty tight parking spot in the garage, but Doriana offered that we could park in a larger one when it was available, which worked out most of the time. So nothing major at all. Overall an extremely positive experience.
