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 reviewClose to city center
No enough space in the room if you go with 2kids. No elevator, so need to climb 3 floor. Room window next to corridor, u hear all noises in the room. I think we didn't like Ksamil at all ( beaches small, crowded, no clean etc.).

Verified reviewThe property was well located very close to Paradise beach and close to town. The owners were wonderful who take pride in their property and it shows. We arrived thirsty and tired and extremely hot due to the heat wave. One of the owners brought us a big bottle of water so we didn’t have to go out and buy one. She also offered to wash our bathing suits and towels after our afternoon swim. We can not say enough good things about the property and the owners. The sheets were crisp & clean. We also loved the restaurants around the area.

Verified reviewJust a 2 minutes walk from a good grocery store and another one minute to the brand new public beach. In the evening we walked 10-15 minutes to the northeast and had good drinks and food. Good parkingspot and just 11 minutes from Pema e Thatë. The "public" balcony was nice to relax. The outside area is filled with nice flowers and statues and a shower to clean your feet. Owners always present and greeted us with a smile. They even cleaned and made the beds when we were away at the beach.
Kitchen was missing basic equipment like wine glasses, small pot for boiling eggs and kitchen knife.

Verified reviewTruly a great place! The owners are incredibly friendly, and the housekeeper even changed the bed linen daily. The kitchenette had basic essentials like a kettle and a frying pan. There was a hairdryer in the bathroom, and aside from the shared corridor balcony, we also had a small private one with a clothes drying rack. The owners also allow guests to use the washing machine. The property is literally 2 minutes from the beach – much closer than it looks in the photos! On the way there’s a small shop with food, toiletries, beach items, and a restaurant. This seems to be one of the few beaches with a large public area (no paid sunbeds or loungers). Beautiful sea view, too!
Probably the only small downside was the shower curtain. It’s definitely a big plus that the shower had a proper tray, unlike most similar places in this price range – but the curtain was awful. It kept sticking to the body while showering, which made it hard to wash properly. It also felt quite unpleasant, as it's likely not replaced or disinfected between guests. The curtain definitely needs replacing!
