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 reviewStaff, location, food are very good.
Breakfast wasn't good enough. Need a little bit more variety. Sometimes you can see a few things are missing. They fill it up but not on time.

Verified reviewWe loved the pool, the room was lovely decorated for us, the staff were nice and the breakfast buffet was well-balanced.
We had a room with an exit to the pool. However, people were sitting on our table and chairs outside our room… which are suposed to be just for us (same as the ones people have on the balconies).

Verified reviewSpacious, clean room. Excellent air-conditioning. Good location, in a quieter area but close to all restaurants and beaches. Staff couldn't do enough for you. Breakfast was varied and tasty. We would happily return.
A few things would make the room a little more comfortable... 4 people, only 1 small hanging rail for clothes, we had to leave our clothes mostly in the suitcase....a set of drawers or shelves would have helped. A space to dry towels/swimwear on the balcony would have been helpful..eg a fold away clothes rack or retractable line.

Verified reviewThe structure is very new and recently made
The staff was always rude and non-existent. The reception was always empty and without anyone to answer information if needed. We asked the owner if we could get some info about the bus to Saranda and he refused to do a simple search online claiming "It's a private company". During the breakfast (included in our booking) I asked a coffee. The owner told me: "For the coffee you have to pay, the bar is not included in the breakfast." It's surreal considering I was just asking for a coffee, I paid for the included breakfast and 70% of the customers are italian. The soap in the toilet was totally empty, and it was never refilled.

Verified reviewNew build, super kind staff, nice selection on breakfast.
It’s a tricky one and I don’t want to be unfair, it’s a lovely place however it’s misleading classing themselves as a 4-star hotel as it’s not a hotel. I’d score it 10 out of 10 as a fantastic premium/boutique Bed and Breakfast with a pool. There are several conveniences you would expect in a hotel that are inexistent here, and it’s ok if the expectations are clear.

Verified reviewDelicious breakfast, kind staff, comfortable room and beds. Great location. Great room cleaning everyday.
I don’t recommend pool rooms because there are no windows (only entrance to the pool area) so it’s hot at night. Some accessories could be improved - lack of bin in the room (only in the bathroom), no toiletries, no place for teeth brush etc. Pool is quite small.

Verified reviewI really enjoyed my stay at the hotel. It was very clean, and the staff were incredibly helpful. My baby has many allergies, and I was pleasantly surprised when they prepared a special meal just for them at breakfast. The breakfast itself was delicious with a wide variety of options. Highly recommend!

Verified reviewThe hotel looks amazing, clean, safe. The staff always nice and willing to help. We stayed 5 nights and they cleaned and change towels everyday. Breakfast was great. Nice swimming pool but we couldn't use it as the weather didn't help, too cold. (Mid April) I will definitely come back to the same hotel next time in Ksamil. 💯
Breakfast is cold if you are there after 9:30am Nothing bad, just wake up a little bit early.
