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.).

United StatesThe only small issue we ran into was that the Wifi was slow at times when the restaurant adjacent to the hotel was busy as everyone was using the same network. However, this was not too much of a big deal.
This place was a great, family owned hotel. The staff was super friendly, and the hotel manager, Toni, was amazing (he was also cute). He made us feel taken care of, and he asked how our day was every time he saw us get back to our room, which we appreciated a lot!

TurkeyEverything about Vila Melina was very good; Location, rooms, calmness, A wonderful family business on the street close to everywhere. Also, there is a steakhouse of the same family right in front of the hotel and their food is very good. Lamb chops and chicken shish were very delicious. The team works like bees in the mornings and evenings. Tony was managing everything very well like an orchestra conductor. Definitely don't forget to drink coffee in the mornings. Thank you for everything.

United StatesWe couldn’t get the TV to work (we mostly just use the music channels while getting ready, not a huge deal). It would be nice to have a little bathroom stand for your soap/shampoo when using the shower.
Absolutely beautiful hotel with a spectacular view of the coastline. The rooms were spotless! Breakfast was quaint but definitely enough. The best part was Toni & his family/team as they were exceptional hosts. Super friendly & they have a great restaurant. Location is safe & walkable to anywhere in the area. We plan on coming back next year!

TurkeyWe had a lovely and comfortable stay at Hotel Vila Melina. The rooms were spacious and clean, with all basic needs like towels and shampoo provided. Items like cotton pads or slippers are not included, so best to bring your own. I'm not sure if there are rooms with balconies, but ours didn’t have one, still, the staff kindly provided hangers and space to dry our wet clothes, which was really thoughtful. There is private parking available, which is a big plus. Breakfast was varied, delicious, and filling. But what truly stood out was the dinner, the grilled meats were absolutely fantastic, cooked to perfection and full of flavor. Definitely worth staying in to dine. They even offered us their traditional homemade raki, which was a special touch. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. It’s a family-run place, and you can really feel the warmth and hospitality. It's not a big chain hotel and that’s exactly what we loved. We prefer supporting and experiencing local businesses like this. The location is great, just a 5–7 minute walk to the center and 8–10 minutes to the beaches. In short, a cozy, relaxed, and heartwarming stay. Highly recommend!

It's great place, brand new, not in the main fuzz of Ksamil, but all in walking distance. The facility is great. Business run by the family so everything feels very comfy and welcoming. It's easy to park a car right in front of the building.

Ukrainesoundproofing, you could hear everything through the entrance doors, when you take a shower the water flows into the corner, even more as a recommendation: add hangers, glasses or cups because there is nothing to drink water from, and add a stand for toothbrushes, since they just lie on the sink
good accommodation, everything within walking distance, we were without a car. Tony is a wonderful host, always helpful, the restaurant downstairs has very tasty food, we will definitely visit again when we are in Kasmil
