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 reviewIt was a lovely room, very spacious and cool.
There was live music in the restaurant below, it was fine but went on until midnight and was very loud in the room. It is good to know this before booking, incase you like an early night.

Verified reviewLocation was great in the center of town and the room was nice and clean.
This is a restaurant with a few guest rooms above it which was misleading on the website. As a result, there is no hotel staff - we got our key from the guy serving tables in the restaurant. Additionally, because the rooms are above the restaurant it was very loud and they play music until late at night.

Verified reviewGorgeous room. Fantastic, helpful staff who even made us a packed lunch to take with us on our journey to Valbonë the following morning, and also allowed us to keep our luggage there for later pickup. We also had the nicest meal of our entire Albania & Montenegro stay there - the duck risotto is to die for, and the restaurant itself has such a pretty, intimate vibe outside in the courtyard. 10/10 would recommend.
The hot tub was dirty and in the end we did not use it.

Verified reviewStaff very thoughtful and accommodating. Quick responses from staff. Excellent location..easy access to buses, restaurants. Very nice breakfast in property's garden. Tradional house.
Not a big issue for us as we live in Bangkok and it's always noisy...but pub next door had live music that was loud. But it stopped promptly at midnight.

Verified reviewThe location was good and central, making it convenient to get around. The room was also spacious, which made it comfortable.
The AC was positioned at a weird location, so the room wasn’t getting cooler and it was uncomfortable because of this. While the manager was amazing, the rest of the staff could have been more smiling and responsive.

Verified reviewThe room was great, in a lovely setting. The staff were incredibly kind, they looked after our bags while we hiked in Theth, and even made a packed lunch for us to take. Really thoughtful touches.
No real negatives apart from it being a little loud in the evenings due to a bar nearby which we wish we had checked for in reviews before as we needed to be up at 5/6am to get a bus to Valbone. However, we had a great stay!

Verified reviewGreat location with a beautiful courtyard and the restaurant attached was delicious.
We had some loud neighbours and could hear through the walls, but a great unique little spot minus that!

Verified reviewWe had a wonderful two-night stay. This hotel is a special place, and we enjoyed learning the history from our friendly waiter. This was a family home that was converted into a 3-room boutique hotel. The chef was trained at a Michelin restaurant in Switzerland, and the excellent food showcases his training. The rooms are beautiful, the beds comfortable. the staff very friendly and accommodating, and the location ideal. We ate our meals at the hotel, as the food was the best in town and the beautiful ivy-covered courtyard was a beautiful and quaint refuge.
It was all wonderful. The bar next door can be loud, especially during world cup soccer, but it shuts down at a decent hour.
