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 were given a room in the other hotel just up the road which was simple but fine. The bed was comfortable with nice sheets. We enjoyed a good breakfast in the dining room prepared by the friendly host. It's a great location between the old town and the new pedestrian area, close to the river.
It's not a problem of the host, but Berat is busy and there is limited parking on the streets and we had to stay in a paid parking place. The hot water ran out quickly in the shower. Stephen

Verified reviewLocation is fantastic, close to the most important places.
The payment was ment to be done by card, but due to some technalities i had to play on cash. This situation can cause some problems. It is better to advertise payment on cash and then allow with card, as options, then the other way around.

Verified reviewExcellent location to explore Berat, with easy access to all points of interest, shops and restaurants. The room was comfortable. Hosts were welcoming and helpful, although English language communication was difficult (which was fine)
The parking situation is unclear. We were shown to a semi-street parking spot by the hosts, but later received a ticket from the police for parking there.

Verified reviewthe location is good and it was clean
The owner was not there for arrival. They did ask us for an arrival time but we did not see that request as we were travelling. We chose the place because there is parking but it was very difficult to park without being given directions and guidance beforehand. The shower leaked everywhere which made the bathroom a mess. We were disappointed to be told that we had to pay in cash without notice ahead of time. We were told the machine was broken.

Verified reviewThe room was clean, and the Wi-Fi worked well without any issues. The host prepared a nice breakfast for us and was very friendly. I think it will be difficult to find something better in such a good location at this price level.
The shower didn't have a curtain, which was quite a unique experience but manageable. Despite what Booking says, you cannot pay with a credit card. It was also the first place in Albania where we couldn’t use Revolut or a similar solution.
