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):
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.
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.).

SloveniaNothing especially.
We stayed in Bora Hotel in Gjirokaster only for one night. Although only for a short time but we experienced a very nice welcome especially from Lola. She was very nice and she also speaks very good Italian.

Close to center by foot. Greate breakfast. Staff was very attentive. We booked a budget double room and do not regret it at all.

United Arab EmiratesVery helpful, friendly staff. Great sized room and bathroom. Good hot shower and toiletries provided. Easy parking in front of the hotel. We walked up into the old town, rather than taking the car and trying to find parking. 20 mins walk, up hill, but quite doable for most people, I think.

RomaniaA perfect stay! Me and my girlfriend stayed for two days to visit the amazing city of Gjirokastra. From the moment we arrived at the hotel we were greeted with warm smiles and exceptional hospitality. The check-in process was seamless, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was nothing short of perfect. A comfortable and quiet place with a perfect location just 2 minutes far from the Old Bazaar. A delicious breakfast for a good start of the day. I highly recommend it. We cannot wait to return!

CanadaWifi is good enough to post your pics to FB but terrible if you need to work remotely. Location seems close to city centre but it’s all uphill so if you’re not up to the challenge, do yourself a favour and take your car 😅. Breakfast doesn’t come close to what you come to expect in Albania-do not let this be the reason you book because you will be very disappointed. Despite all this, you won’t find anything cheaper. We’ve been travelling Albania for one month now and we’ve paid a lot more for a lot worse. We were actually pleasantly surprised with this one.
For the price we paid, we really can’t complain. The room was comfortable and served its purpose.

It was a little bit far by walking to the center of Gjirokaster. 25-30 min by walking ( Gjirokaster isn’t a flat town 😂). Also I wouldn’t recommend a breakfast there. It was good but maybe you can try better. It included fruits and cake.
Its was a cute& clean room. The staff was friendly. They had a parking space if you are going there by car. There were supermarkets right across the street.

DenmarkPoor wifi, the hotel is located next to the main road so it is very noisy even with windows closed. The breakfast included in the price was symbolic (small bun and banana) but it was possible to pay extra to order good breakfast (eggs, cheese, vegetables, bread).
Very clean hotel with good location (1,5 km uphill to the centre). Good value for money!

CanadaThe room was very nice with beautiful pictures, brand new washroom. I broke the wheel on my luggage on the way to hotel because the roads do not have good asphalt and the owner glued it to the bag and refused to take any money. He also gave us free ride to the bus. He also bought us kettle and cups when we asked yo have something warm to drink. Besides, breakfast was delicious.
