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 reviewLocation was good (up the hill from the main road, so you have a good view of the lake and Macedonian mountains). Taku met me on arrival so no stress finding the place and parking. Taku and his wife (Zara?) were both super hospitable. They showed me the goats (and I got to milk one .. the milk was surprisingly delicious), and I had some of their Raki (brandy) and goat cheese. Using Google translate, we had conversations about many things. The place was clean and comfortable, and I liked the outdoor area (lots of plants, flowers, fruit trees and even a visiting rabbit).
no complaints ... everything was good.

Verified reviewVery nice hosts, they waited for us outside (it's not easy to find). It's a nice and simple acomodation. They have very tasty fish, cheese and wine. Fresh milk and cheese is your breakfast if you like that. I'd recommend it to people who like simple things, nature and animals. Otherwise go to Hilton.

Verified reviewOur hosts don't speak English, but prior communication was smooth with the help of their son. Dad was waiting for us at the agreed time next to the local school, from where I only had to drive a few meters to safely park near the house. The upper floor of their house is entirely available to guests, with a living room with a kitchenette, two bedrooms, a bathroom and a small terrace that offers a wonderful panorama of the lake and the surrounding mountains. Towards the end of April, the air still gets cold at night, so they lit a stove for us in one of the bedrooms, which was very cozy. The bedding and towels were wonderfully clean and fragrant, and the hosts were so kind and hospitable that words cannot describe. I've never met such eager hosts who didn't even know what to offer or how to make their guests' stay even better. I owe them a debt of gratitude that I cannot express in words. Another thing that comes to mind about words. Although they don't speak languages, they use all their strength to communicate with the visitor. They don't just want to express themselves, they want to understand the other persons. They are wonderful, respectable, and lovable people.
I'm not saying that the design of the rooms, the furniture, and the decor of the apartment reflect my taste, but it's not mine either, I was just a guest there, and hospitality doesn't compensate, but makes you forget anything you might not like.

Verified reviewIt was amazing. The best thing that could have happened to me on a cold rainy day in Albania. I was welcomed warmly and with a tasty traditional meal. The host cared about me and I really felt that he wanted me to feel comfortable. I slept well. The view from the house and terrace over the ohrid lake is wonderful. I'd go there again!! Perfect for couples and even families.
