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.).

Verified reviewThe location is perfect as it is super near of everything - city center / old town, docks for boat tours, restaurants and bars, and even bus station at a 15 minute walking distance. Despite being so close to the center, the guesthouse is located in a quiet corner, so we had no issues with noise whatsoever. The hosts are very friendly and available to help, provided a city map upon our arrival with some indications and advices - very sweet. The room is cosy enough, not huge, and has a lot of personal belongings it seems, but allows the necessary for a short and comfortable stay. Bathroom is okay as well, and the AC is a blessing for such hot days in Split.
Beaches are a bit far away from the city center, so it's a matter of the guest's priority. Either you wish to stay closer to beaches, and you will be a bit far from city center. Otherwise, if close to the city center, you will have to catch a bus for some of the beaches, or take a long walk. We only visited Bacvice Beach and we walked there - around 20/25 minutes, it's perfectly manageable, easy walking. We preferred to take the boat tours and for that, the docks are 5 minute distance from the guesthouse.

Verified review*Comfy bed, and I have a bad back, so I'm picky! *Amazing location! Really couldn't ask for better! *Small, but good mini-fridge *Powerful A/C *Spacious bathroom with good water pressure & temperature *Owners are very kind! It's a father and daughter. He helped us with my bag after I injured my foot. *Quirky things in the room that made it feel homey and like visiting a family friend *The dad is happy to share info about the area with you, but we really didn't see them other than check-in and check-out, so still loads of privacy!
*The owners addressed this as soon as I told them, but other people have mentioned it, so I'll note that one night of our multi-night stay, the main shared hall smelled of cigarettes. I asked the owners about it and they reminded all the guests about the non-smoking policy, then no more issues! I have asthma and am quite sensitive to it, so I don't think it's the owners who smoke (as others have suggested) - the father helped with our bags after I hurt my foot and I never smelled it on him at all. Unfortunately, a lot of Europeans smoke and some still think that sticking it out a window avoids the smell. The owners were great about helping though!

Verified review-Good location -Decent space, mini fridge and a table to sit at.
My girlfriend got stuck behind the slide bathroom door at around 11pm at night. She suffers with claustrophobia and was up with panic attacks for the rest of then night after this ordeal. We had to ring the property and her father came to fix it, the whole ordeal took about a hour and was very traumatising for my partner who was crying and hyperventilating, having being trapped in a small bathroom space for over half a hour. It was lucky I was there with her to get help as if you was a solo traveller and went in the bathroom without a phone and got trapped, the situation could have been genuinely dangerous. The next day, when we was lying on the bed, the door randomly came off its hinges after the temporary fix provided and again, it was lucky I was there to catch the door as it was falling and hold it up. We had to leave the door held up with the two chairs until her father came to remove the door. If this had happened when I was asleep or it was my girlfriend there instead of me, who wouldn’t have had the power to hold the door up, it could have fell and caused extreme damage to someone. We was then left without a door on the bathroom for the last night of the stay resulting in no privacy, although they offered us access to a bathroom in the hallway however when you pay for a private room it’s not what you expect. The owner offered us partial reimbursement at the time and appeared apologetic enough , however we are yet to hear anything further regarding this a week on from check out. A really disappointing stay which genuinely ruined our trip to split, and could have ended much worse in different circumstances. I am sure this experience is most likely an anomaly given the other good reviews however I must post our own experience, which was nothing short of terrible. The beds and pillows are also uncomfortable, although perhaps it was just after the trauma we were struggling to sleep.
Hi Paul, We’re sorry that your stay didn’t go as expected and resulted in mutual dissatisfaction. When you called at 11:00 PM regarding the issue with the sliding door, my father responded immediately and managed to temporarily fix the problem. I’d like to point out that we’ve never had any issues with that door before, nor did the guests who checked out earlier that same day report any problems. I messaged you the next morning asking you to let us know if the temporary fix was holding up, but we didn’t hear back until 9:00 PM, when you informed us that the door had come off the track — which, we agree, was a safety concern. At that point, we had to remove the door entirely. Your stay lasted only two nights, and since it was Sunday and also a national holiday in Croatia, we were unable to offer a better solution than the attempted repair. You requested compensation, but after check-out, we also found a completely broken trash bin in the room, and the repairman confirmed that the sliding door could not have come off its track on its own but most likely by forceful and improper handling. We must conclude that the apartment was not handled with the same care one would give their own home. We hope that your future hosts won’t encounter similar issues. Also, I must correct you — it was not us who offered you a partial refund, but you directly requested it from us due to your stress. We regret the stress this caused, especially for your girlfriend, but you also caused us material damage (expensive repair), which we could have claimed compensation for but we didn't. However, under these circumstances, we cannot offer you compensation either. Best regards, Jelena

Verified reviewEverything was perfect and very clean. The location was great, and the hosts were super sweet and helpful. They were very kind and understanding – we arrived very late at night, but they still welcomed us warmly. After check-out, they even let us leave our luggage there for a few hours. I would definitely stay here again – it will be my first choice next time!

The air conditioning would repeatedly turn on and off intermittently with a noticeably high-pitched buzzing and snap, making it a little difficult for light sleepers.

Verified reviewSuch a perfect place! :) Very affordable and amazing location. It was quiet and comfortable, and Jelena + her father were so accommodating when a group trip ran into delays and I arrived later than expected. They have recommendations for things to do in Split and places to eat, there’s WiFi, good water pressure / hot water in the shower, and overall just a lovely place to crash after a tiring hiking weekend. My luggage had been lost and everything I needed was in shops <5 mins away. Highly recommend :)
