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.).

PolandThere could be a coffee machine inside the apartment to enjoy the mornings even more. Otherwise nothing to make a point at all
Morning breakfasts outside with amazingly tasty bread, home made jams, milk, vegetables straight from the own planting area. All eaten under the leaves of grapes and kiwi literally 150m from the Ohrid lake. Great hosts, very humble and kind. Great place to stay. Highly recommended even though it might seem a little odd at first glance

AlbaniaGreat location by the lake and walking distance to traditional restaurants in the Tushemisht village, yet in a tranquil environment, surrounded by a nice garden and away from the street. Contemporary furnishings with everything a family needs for a comfortable stay. The beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was great with homemade jams and fresh farm eggs from the property's own chickens. The owners even brought us some kiwi fruit from their lovely garden. Would definitely go back to this well maintained property by the lovely owners Gjyshi Ilo and Shpresa.

AlbaniaThe hotel was right on the lake. It was not directly in the center of town, so it was quiet but close to everything! The room was clean and up to date. The beds were comfortable and the floors were heated! Gjyshi and gjushja were very friendly and gave us fruits to taste from their garden.

North MacedoniaWe met two very sweet elderly hosts. Their hospitality was delightful. Their breakfast includes homemade items. Everything is fresh; the eggs are from their own henhouse, the jams are homemade, and the pastries are made with their own hands, resulting in delicious food. The apartment complex has a large garden, filled with numerous fruit trees and vegetables. The apartments are clean and furnished with new materials. We have just one recommendation: they could provide a kettle, which would be very useful for the guests.

AlbaniaThe bottom floor of the building was quite low and it gave us a strange feeling at first. There were some small bugs in the house, but I think this can happen in any country house.
The house was all renovated and everything was like new. There was a fireplace that gave the house a very special feel. The bed was big and comfy, and the heating system was one of the best. The location was perfect and the food very good. Also, i loved the bathtub. The owners were very friendly and helpful, and gave us wine and apples for free.

Everything was perfect, the miracle of that beautiful place will remain in our minds for a long time. The hospitality of the lady of the house was always great, simple and hardworking people. The room was very clean and fresh air everywhere. The view in front of a river inside in the courtyard of the house it was beautiful. Breakfast organic and abundant. Grandfather Ilo gave us fruit from his garden and wine he made himself. Amazing place!

AustriaThe very small shower without a curtain and the missing hooks, but hooks for your clothes are hard to find in most of the accommodations anyway. The construction works in the vicinity along the lakeshore although they are absolutely necessary and promise an even better experience in the near future.
cunning solution over 2 floors, small but you really get in touch with the local owners who do their very best to make your stay a unique one. You can experience perfectly that the persons your dealing with make the difference.
