Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

GreeceReally bad breakfast, a la carte from which you could only choose one option. Very uncomfortable parking place, small and unprotected, risky for the car. Location was a disaster, main road closes at night, lots of bars and people, loud noice and no soundproof windows, you cant sleep and rest and generally hotel is old but it tricks you because it seems renovated. Doesnt worth staying there, especially if you travel for business.
Receptionists were ok, room and bathroom were clean. Very friendly waiters.

United KingdomThis is my third stay in 3 years. Breakfast has a regulated menu that, allowing for individual tastes, inevitably over 3 days repeats itself! 2 out of 4 days l got the fresh leaf tea, one day l was charged for water! They have a design towards healthy eating, yet serve, horrible white bread! The tv never worked despite complaints and the WiFi on the 3rd floor was intermittent.
Furniture, receptionist was most helpful, location.

United KingdomThe breakfast food is not nice at all. The Turkish Bath is included in the price but there’s no massage etc. just the ability to walk into the warm room, with taps and bowls. The hotel is on a main road so it’s very noisy and difficult to sleep until the early hours even on a weekday.

EstoniaOne of the bed lights were broken. Room dusty. Bathroom had issues with drainage. Breakfast was disappointing: juice was already finished by 8:30, portions very small and unsatisfying. Service arrogant and inattentive. Loud noises from the bar below until 23:00.
Good location. Considerate receptionist.

FinlandI did not like the blanket. During night whenever I switched from left side to right, I woke up to the sound it made. Every single time. It was pretty "loud" blanket, if it makes even any sense, however, it was comfy. The noise isolation was also pretty poor. Even the silent music in the hallways could be heard inside of the room, let alone neighbors talking or walking in the hallways.
I liked the general overview of the hotel. The decoration inside was beautiful, also my room was very pretty - I liked the wooden theme. I also enjoyed the turkish bath. I also liked that the cleaner lady had folded my clothes while I was eating breakfast.

United KingdomThe room was unfortunately far from being clean. This was the same in the bathroom. The shower had no screen or curtain so when showering the water splashed everywhere. Unfortunate design.
The hotel is located on the main street and it is a very beautiful period building with nicely furbished rooms. Staff was kind and helpful. We particularly loved the breakfast in the courtyard,

United StatesThere was a street party taking place directly outside our room that did not end until 12:00 midnight. When combined with a loud call to prayer at 4:30 in the morning, we did not get much sleep. Parking is public parking on the street. Because of the street party, we had to move our car in the morning to avoid getting a ticket. Bathroom is charming but the shower is small. Breakfast was nice and the staff very friendly but the service was very slow. It took almost an hour for the food to arrive and we were the only guests in the breakfast area at the time. I would have liked to take advantage of the onsite hammam but was told the open hours didn't line up with our check-in/check out.
The property is beautiful. The dining area and the garden are stunning. The room had a very nice balcony and historic features that are charming.

NetherlandsA very noisy place. Maybe its the Dürres vibe, but the experienced hospitality doesn’t come anywhere close to all other experiences we had in Albania (on more than 1 trip). Staff seems uninspired. Albania is famous for its genuinely heartfelt hospitality towards guests and visitors. No signs of this here whatsoever. An underwhelming experience in that sense.
Location in the city centre. The building and its style
