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.).

The property was ideally located minutes from the old centre in an incredibly quiet neighbourhood and pleasant pedestrianised street. It was so quiet we could sleep with open windows and didn’t hear a sound

Visible graffiti all around the streets outside of the historic old town was unexpected. Our host reassured us the neighborhood was quite safe, and we did feel safe after our few days visit. We would still highly recommend, and would stay here again no question.
We loved our stay at Balatura The Fine Bed&Breakfast. Our host greeted us warmly and was so accommodating to us. We needed help with laundry (after just completing a week at sail), and they were able to do for us same day. Our room was gorgeous, we had plenty of space, and were quite comfortable. The walk over to the historic old town was short and fun to walk through the local market. The breakfasts were so nice! We loved learning this is a family-run business, and the history of the property. The host was so sweet as she noticed my husband's birthday when she checked us in, and surprised us at breakfast with a small piece of cake for him :)

We wouldn’t change anything.
We loved our stay. The beds were so comfortable and it was lovely having a sofa in the room as well as the balcony. The shower was really hot and powerful. Everyone who we spoke to who worked at Balatura were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was perfect (we especially liked the black bread and pastries) and we liked they provided blankets on the terrace in case it was chilly. A 5 minute walk takes you to the old town by way of a pretty neighbourhood and the food market. We caught the shuttle bus to the ferry port from the airport and from here it was just a 10 minute walk to Balatura (recommend you check a map for directions - Google works fine for this).

Nothing to dislike
A beautiful traditional hotel, which is just a short walk from the Old Town. The building has been renovated in such a sympathetic manner to ensure none of it’s charm has been lost. The staff excel when it comes to hospitality and kindness and do everything they can to pass on their love and knowledge of their city to ensure make the most of your stay.
