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 reviewI stayed for two nights at Cruso Hotel in Herceg Novi, Montenegro, and had a wonderful experience. The hotel is very clean and well-maintained, the rooms are comfortable, and the atmosphere is welcoming. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and I’d like to give special thanks to Ivan for his exceptional service and providing many interesting information about the country. Highly recommend!

Verified reviewThe staff is great, warm welcome and good byes. The breakfast is ok as for our taste. For a decent price they make a good cappuccino for you. The hotel is on the main road and does not have rooms facing the backside (the mountains). The rooms on the side of the building are also not very quiet. The rooms on the first floor on the sides are dark and facing the wall. The apartments themselves are newly renovated. The furniture items though do not match the room size. A huge table for 4 people, a huge coffee table and an armchair take half of the space. It is not possible to open the sofa bed in the living room at night because of that.
We could not use the oven as the electricity went off once we turned it on.

Verified reviewThe breakfast was quite nice and had lots of options. The staff was attentive. The view was lovely. The roof top pool area was great except the chaises and the step to the pool was breaking apart and splintering off and in need of repair as it was borderline a hazard.
Our first evening we noticed a significant leak from the ceiling onto the bed. Luckily we noticed before we went out for the evening, otherwise it could have been a real disaster. As it was they had to move us to a lower quality room for the night. The best they could offer was the difference in what we paid for the superior room and the next day a beverage on the house, in spite of this being a fairly significant inconvenience as we could not enjoy our accommodation fully. We found the bedding to be quite scratchy and did ask for a sheet which helped. The bar menu was great except when we requested certain drinks they were not actually available ( a prosecco, a pina colada...). Also, there is a lot of road noise that could be heard while sitting on the balcony.
Dear guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations, despite our team’s best efforts to resolve the situation swiftly and professionally. As we explained during your stay, the leak in your room was caused by an unexpected flooding incident from the room directly above, and unfortunately, such unforeseen technical issues can happen in hotels around the world, no matter how much care is taken. As soon as the issue was identified, our maintenance staff came during the night and worked diligently to ensure the problem was resolved as quickly as possible. In the meantime, we offered you an alternative suite to sleep in for the night. While the room had a different view, it was still a suite-level accommodation, and we did our best to ensure your comfort. Although this incident was beyond our control, we decided to go a step further by covering the full cost of the difference between the rooms ourselves — in fact, we paid more than DOUBLE the rate difference — as a gesture of goodwill. We are truly disappointed to receive such a negative review, especially considering the effort and urgency with which our team responded to make your stay as pleasant as possible under the circumstances. Nonetheless, we sincerely thank you for your feedback and wish you all the best in your future travels. Kind regards, Aleksandra General Manager

Verified reviewThe staff were extremely helpful and accommodating - especially Ljliana, who worked at reception. The breakfast was delicious, and they have a nice pool on the rooftop. We didn't end up spending time on their private beach, but we walked by and it looked really nice (chairs and towels are provided).
The hotel is on a main street, so it can be a bit challenging to cross it to go down to old town.

Verified reviewGreat location, 20 min walk to old town along beach promenade. Lovely breakfast and really sweet staff. Very comfy bed. Shame no air con in bedroom.
The pool has bird poo on the sides for the whole 2 days we were there. there were no staff to get you a drink at the pool during the day - you had to go down 4 floors to reception and even then there were no bar staff on shift until the eve. Staff did bring a drink up but it seemed like an effort having said initially they couldn’t do it.

Verified reviewSuper clean with a very good breakfast! But the best part was the pool with the view and the sauna. We went in the beginning of May, and we’re still able to swim a little under a hot sun, even though it’s isn’t heated.
The doors aren’t completely soundproof.

Verified reviewGarni Hotel Kruso offers impressively clean rooms that come equipped with small kitchenettes and all the basic utensils—a nice touch even for guests like myself who didn't plan to cook. The breakfast, while somewhat limited in options, proved perfectly adequate to start the day. I particularly appreciated the availability of garage parking, a valuable amenity in Montenegro. The staff demonstrated consistent helpfulness throughout my stay, ready to assist with any needs. Another convenient feature was the elevator access from the parking garage directly to the lobby and guest rooms, making luggage transport effortless.
The parking situation in the garage reflected the broader Montenegrin parking culture—chaotic and frustrating. Local guests parked with little regard for others, creating situations where I couldn't even access my own vehicle without staff assistance. While this disorderly parking approach seems common throughout Montenegro, the hotel should implement stricter measures to prevent such chaos in their garage and ensure all guests have proper access to their vehicles.
