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 reviewVery nice room in a quiet, central location on the edge of the old town. The view from rooftop was wonderful.
It was confusing to find - there's no sign, so you have to ask people the tourist businesses around the address. And while there is parking provided, the space, which is marked with a chair saying "King's Guest House" or something instead of "Arben Qemeri" - was always filled with motorbikes, so unless the guest house staff were just there to help move them all, it was tough to actually park independently. But I made do just fine.

Verified reviewAbsolutely ideal location with a personal parking space out the front. The owners even helped me to park my car. Nothing was too much trouble. They had the best shower of my entire stay! And a wonderful view from the roof.

Verified reviewNice rooms, and a very good location. We had a warm welcome when we arrived!
We expected more from the breakfast, based on the pictures they showed on booking and the reviews about the breakfast. It was an okay breakfast(banana, 2 cheese patries, small piece of cheese and a bit of cucumber+espresso and a juice), but we booked mainly because of the big variety in breakfast that was mentioned in reviews and shown in multiple pictures.
Thank you for your feedback! We're delighted you liked our rooms, location, and warm welcome. We apologize for the breakfast not meeting your expectations; we'll work on providing a more consistent experience. We appreciate your valuable input and hope to have the chance to host you again in the future.

Verified reviewBreakfast with lots of fresh fruits, which we loved! Easily reached by car. Yes, you have to walk uphill for 1km to the old city, but you know that when you book this lovely guesthouse with a small terrace and really you do not want to drive up there. Just free exercise! And in Mangalemi self are also some nice restaurants and bars! We also had a small fridge, which was very convenient because of the heat!
