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 KingdomNothing at all.
Guest House Denis is a fabulous place to stay in a lovely quiet area of the old town about ten minutes walk from the Bazaar. A real home from home atmosphere with comfortable bedroom and en-suite shower room, hair dryer, toiletries, slippers. Without doubt the highlight of our stay was the breakfast on the roof terrace each morning. I doubt you will find a better breakfast anywhere else.

Everything! The breakfast is genuinely the best breakfast either of us have ever had at a stay anywhere in the world. They are super friendly and generous, giving us beer and cake on arrival, pomegranates to take with us on our journey and even helped with parking! Location was great and an easy walk into the centre on Gjirokastër

NetherlandsFriendly and very welcoming stay. As said Denis (or his father) can park (in and out) for you the car in the garage or the narrow street (just stop the car where the tarmac ends). Drink and cake on arrival, a sumptuous breakfast on a terrace with incredible views. Very good location for visiting the historical center (yes, it is as all of Gjirokaster up and down).

The views are incredible and the breakfast is outstanding. They helped us with taxis and recommended places to eat. I highly recommend this place to anyone. :)

United KingdomThe road to her there is a little scary and our car almost didn’t make it up the hill. I would recommend driving through the town rather than exciting the main road early as we did.
Everything was fantastic. Great location, comfy beds, clean rooms, beautiful views and gorgeous cats! Dennis and his parents were fantastic hosts, greeting us with a cold beer and home made cake on arrival. Fantastic breakfast was the cherry on top of a lovely stay

Denis's family is phenomenal. They are so warm and helpful. Denis even had to some get us as our Google Maps wasn't cooperating. They fed us so much delicious food. The view is stunning.

AustraliaNothing about the property was at fault but the walk to town is a bit uphill which we didn’t mind, helped us digest !
the rooms are cozy and comfortable with cute thoughtful additions. The rooftop terrace was so lovely to chill at night pre heading into town and to start the day followed by the most beautiful breakfast from Ava 🤍 Denis welcome us with drinks and helpful suggestions for our stay. The location was a short walk to town and back. They gave us ample water for the entire stay as well. They have the cutest little garden with vegetables and pigeons !

SwitzerlandOrganize yourself in terms of transport, especially if you have heavy luggage, either by asking the host for help or getting to the bazaar and then walking around 10 minutes without a very demanding uphill climb. I made mistake of walking there from bus station and needless to say I don't recommend to do so.
I had a fantastic stay at this homestay in Gjirokastra. The location is convenient, just a 10-minute walk from the castle. The place was very clean and aesthetic, with good air conditioning. If needed, they can also help you with laundry. The highlight was the lovely rooftop patio with a view of the castle, which was especially pleasant at night. Although the host didn't speak English, they were very enthusiastic to help, and we managed well with Google Translate. The breakfast was delicious and generous—I felt spoiled! Additionally, the host kindly gave me a lift to the bus station. Highly recommended!
