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 fact that it was a family-run guesthouse, which gave it such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The property itself was beautiful, comfortable, and well cared for, making it feel more personal than a typical hotel. What stood out most, however, was Mirel’s kindness and hospitality—he was very accommodating, attentive, and made us feel truly looked after throughout our stay.
Nothing!

Verified reviewSTUNNING location- only downside is that it is about 1 mile walk down the hill into Theth and the hikes. But stunning views of the Albanian Alps! The food was AMAZING- you should buy dinner one night for a great taste of traditional Albanian food. The family running the place was so kind and they went above and beyond to make us feel welcome as two younger girls traveling!! Could not recommend enough.
Far from town.

Verified reviewA warm and welcoming family-run place that we would love to visit again. The business is mainly managed by the son, who does a fantastic job. The room was excellent and the view from the dining area was absolutely stunning. Make sure to reserve dinner in advance. It was the most delicious meal we had at any accommodation. Ask for some local tips — everyone is happy to help.

Verified reviewThe guesthouse is in a beautiful place and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is really good and if you have a car I would highly recommend.
I didn’t realise how far it actually was from Theth village, about 3km uphill. So it is basically impossible to get back up there easily, you always need to drive (walking down is okay although still long). The family offered to drive us and pick us up and did not mention any cost, although we assumed it would be something we did not expect a 60 euro charge at check out for 4, 5min drives up/down the hill… also out of their control but the house is incredibly noisy and guests kept us up all night after a massive hike :(

Verified reviewThe accommodation offers a stunning panoramic view from the restaurant, which was definitely a highlight. Keep in mind that the place is located in the hills above Teth, so if you’re traveling on foot, it’s best to hitchhike or arrange a ride (would cost around 15€). It’s also important to check whether the bathroom is private or shared before booking. The staff, who are a friendly family, were always smiling and welcoming. The Albanian food served was delicious and authentic.

Verified reviewFamily were lovely, and location was beautiful. Breakfast included was exceptional and left with full bellies.
A little rough and ready but it is a traditional guest house. Dinner is a little expensive compared to in the town but you definitely get a lot of food for your money.
