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 had a wonderful stay at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, the host gave us a warm welcome with a bottle of water and even helped carry our luggage upstairs. The room was spotless, beautifully kept, and made us feel both safe and at home. The hosts were absolutely amazing—amicable, friendly, and always ready to go the extra mile to ensure our comfort. Breakfast was delicious, with thoughtful touches that showed how much care they put into making our stay enjoyable. I recommend this place 💯 and will definitely be coming back!
The water wasn't hot enough in the morning.

Verified reviewThe hotel is walking distance from the main bus stop
Very noisy as the main road is next to it. It gets really warm in the room and the airco did not work despite I had put it at 17degrees. It is a steep 30min walk uphill to the old town. Would rather suggest to stay here if you don't go to town - the budget room is not recommended for the reasons described - for that kind of money you get much better value elsewhere.

Verified reviewClose to centre but not half way up the hillside. Brand new small hotel with nice fittings
It’s above a fast food restaurant but once in the room you wouldn’t know it - no noise or smells & my room had mountain views
Wait for you to come again in our hotel . Wish you all the best 🤗

Verified reviewHotel close to bus stops. I was afraid to hear the noise of the road, but i didn't hear anything. very clean room and the owner's family was very kind.
the room is small: If you stay for several days you will probably run out of storage space.

Verified reviewVery clean room. We arrived at midnight and there were people expecting us. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was one of the best we have ever had in Albania - simple but rich flavor - homemade honey, jam, fresh made cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, eggs, fresh fruit. Unfortunately we didn’t have our phones with us when we had the breakfast to take a photo, but we were amazed! The hosts are so nice and welcoming! We truly wish them all the best!
We stayed here on our way to Greece. The location might be less convenient if you’re looking to visit the city.

Verified reviewNew, clean and comfortable hotel, good wifi and reception on big TV screen. Very friendly host and family. Delicious breakfast and takeaway with huge salad portions. Hotel at bottom of the hilll, but was a bit far to walk to the old town. Need to drive up the hill (at the Big Market) to the public parking areas 'Free parking' or 'Parking' and then walk a further 10 mins up.
No ledge to stop water flowing from shower out to bathroom floor.

Verified reviewThe room is spacious and very clean. The shower is user friendly. The host is very friendly.
Eating at the first floor restaurant although convenient, but when paying the bill, we’re told that was the old price. It would be better to let us know before we order the food.

Verified reviewIt is very close to the Gjirokaster bus station that was the main reason we opted for Mega. Apart from the distance, the room is super cozy and very clean with the restaurant is really convenient. Owners family are very welcoming, helpful and amazing people.
From the outside it doesn’t really feel good but when you enter the lobby and room, you can definitely feel the freshness and cleanliness.
