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 reviewWe really enjoyed the size of the venue The kitchen was very well equiped, we liked cosy design, and a very convenient location close to the town but still more in the nature.
We were surprised that there was no view from windows and that it was needed to keep all windows covered. Otherwise everything was really good. We enjoyed the place.
Hello, We are sorry to hear that your experience with us was reflected in a score of 7. We always do our best to make our guests feel comfortable and to provide them with a pleasant stay. We are always available to assist, and if you had let us know about anything missing or needed during your stay, we would have been happy to make your time with us even more enjoyable. Regarding the view, our photos never advertise a sea view or any other specific scenery — they clearly show the terrace of the apartment. As for the windows, it is of course logical to keep them closed while the air conditioning is running, but no one required you to keep the blinds down. The blinds are there simply as an option, to help keep the apartment cool during strong sunlight. Thank you for your feedback, and best regards.

Verified reviewThe bed is comfortable, and the natural beauty surrounding the house makes up for the rest. If you don't have a car, this place really isn't for you
We booked the Cozy Istrian House, a two-bedroom property(80m²), for four nights at a cost of €286.11 using the Genius Discount. After booking, Maja informed us that the room was for eight people and asked if we would be willing to switch to a smaller room for four people(27m²). We asked for a reduced price of €200 if we were required to switch to a much smaller room, but Maja said that the price for a small room was €250 plus €15 for the dog. However, she later told us that the larger room was not booked out and agreed to let us stay in the larger room we had originally booked for the price of €286.11. When we arrived, Maja's mother told us that the larger room was not available, and we would have to stay in the smaller room(Apartments Baredi), but we insisted that we had already paid for the larger room( Cozy Istrian House, a two-bedroom). They eventually refunded us €21. The property was disappointing, not only due to the price we paid but also due to its condition. The house was quite old and dark, with limited lighting in the rooms, and the toilet shower was very small and poorly drained. The decor was eclectic, with many small pieces scattered around. It felt more like living in a storage room than a holiday home. Additionally, we felt that the description of the property was misleading. It's also listed on Booking.com as Apartments Baredi, it has 8.5 points, not 9.(I never booked anything under 9) and the description says it's 2.5km from the beach, but it's on top of a hill, and it takes a 10-minute drive to reach Izola. (someone in the comment (list as Apartments Baredi)said 3 minutes. I guess he jumped straight off the top of the hill).We wouldn't recommend it for those who want to be close to the beach or restaurants. Lastly, we want to clarify that our disappointment with the accommodation was not solely due to the price we paid.
Dear guest, We are sincerely sorry you have had an unpleasant experience during your stay with us. Regarding the room availability and prices, we were sure your confirmation after the sent link of the other apartment (60m2, not 27m2), we came to an agreement, however there was obviously a misunderstanding, and we apologize for that. About the light in the apartment, the sizes of windows and light fixtures are clearly visible on the photos and we have not had a complaint about this subject ever. Also, the interior is visible on the property photos, the style is our choice and honestly we are proud of it we are very sorry it wasn't to your taste. Regarding the location, it is clearly written in our description that we are situated on top of the hill, surrounded by nature and away from the town hassle and the distance is automatically generated on the booking site in air distance. We are sorry you didn't express your opinions during your stay, as we are always here and happy to make the stay of our guests as comfortable as possible.
