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.).

Excellent value for the money. Rooms are €30 in off season of Sept - April. No need to pay extra fees to booking service. Large dogs are welcome. 75m from the beach and 24hrs supermarket downstairs.

United KingdomThere are no shower curtains/box, so the bathroom gets all wet. We also didn’t have water in the room when we arrived, but the staff fixed that in two minutes by turning on the water pump. Just make sure to double check with them if there’s enough water when you check in, before going up to your room. But other than that, can’t really complain.
It’s just across the street from the beach, so it’s very convenient. There’s a 24h market next to it, if you need any last minute snacks. They have chairs and umbrellas if you want to use at the beach. The breakfast was good and very well served, with a sea view. The room was big and the bed was comfy. The staff was friendly and very helpful when we needed assistance.

Norway-
I recently had the pleasure of staying at Seashell, and my experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I stepped into the lobby to the final goodbye at checkout, every aspect of my stay exceeded expectations. The staff's warmth and professionalism stood out, making me feel genuinely welcomed. Their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring a comfortable stay were evident throughout. The room was not only impeccably clean but also tastefully decorated, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The hotel's central location made exploring the city convenient, with key attractions within easy reach. The hotel is 2 minutes from the beach and only 15 min drive to the city. We weren't able to taste the food that the hotel provides as we wanted to explore nearby places. Ended up having lunch multiple times at another great hotel nearby AMR Hotel. The food was extraordinary and the staff's professionalism was at the highest levels. The hotel is a 4star, highly deserved! In summary, Seashell exemplifies excellence in hospitality. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a comfortable and a normal budget stay. I look forward to returning and relishing the outstanding service and comfort.

New ZealandEverything was perfect.
The cozy Rooms are perfectly located, 1 min to the beach by foot. We stayed there one night and came back for another 3 nights at the end of our trip. Antonela and Vincent are the kindest host ever. After an accident they drove me in the middle of the night to the hospital and helped with all translations. We will definitely come back. Highly recommended!!!

DenmarkVery friendly and helpful staff, with a small but lovely little hotel. We had all we needed, it was clean and near the beach. The area was safe, there were a lot of restaurants nearby. The sunchairs were included in the price, which was a huge bonus. All in all we loved staying here and would for sure come back again!

Netherlands"Simply the best in the area in terms of quality and price. You might be fooled by the outside appearance, as it will seem unfinished, but when you enter inside, you will be amazed. The rooms are curated with details, cleanliness above all, comfort, and niceness. A pleasant smell can be detected in the corridors, and the flower decorations are very cute. I'm sorry I didn't find this place earlier. A beloved puppy named Miki will wait for you at the hotel - how lovely! We ate breakfast on the balcony in our privacy and comfort. Breakfast was only 7 euros, but it was worth it. Nothing was missing from it. We went to the beach, and we also had free beach umbrellas. It only took me 20 seconds to walk to the sea. Parking was included, and I have no complaints. We will see each other again in September. Thank you. I suggest it to everyone, and you will be satisfied."
