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.).

DenmarkOur stay at Alberti was amazing! The place is located in Llogara Park, very close to hiking tracks and also perfect, if you want to try paragliding. The accommodation was modest but very cosy and clean, surrounded by beautiful nature. The restaurant serves fantastic food! The homemade ravioli with orange and cinnamon sauce stole my heart and I need to go back just to be able to eat it again! The place is run by a lovely family - each member was extremely accommodating and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and we highly recommend it to everyone. Greetings, Izabela and Magnus

Excellent food and very nice staff. Homemade pasta was absolutely delicious. Staff made us breakfast for early morning as we would miss it, because we were going hiking to Cika mountain.

United StatesWhile we ate dinner the restaurant was slow and a lot of the staff was watching videos on their phone. Obviously don’t care about them being on their phones at all (small family run place) but I just find it very rude when people watch videos with the volume up, especially in a restaurant. This seems to be an issue in general these days and I wish there could be a little more awareness of loud phone videos, especially at a restaurant. But we loved our stay here this is just a little room for improvement advice
Very close to Llogara national park. Rooms are older / outdated decor but the room was comfortable. No AC which we were worried about but the temperature was good. We ate dinner there and breakfast was included with the room; also came back from a hike for lunch and all 3 meals were great. Staff was very friendly

CanadaThere was a rain and windstorm the entire time we were there. The power was out and there was no hot water the entire time we were there. The generator was turned on to prepare meals in the restaurant but was turned off at 8:30 in the evening. The room was very small with no place to sit.
The food was excellent and the family was very helpful. They gave us good information about hiking and packed a lunch for us to take on the road.

SloveniaEverything needs some maintenance, plus we were really cold. The heating was on when we arrived, but during the night they switch everything off. The shower is not separated from the floor in the bathroom, no curtain, so everything gets wet. Without heating nothing dries. Also for the dinner in their restaurant, at 6pm they were out of many dishes.
The staff is friendly but thats it.

GermanyWalls are thin-we heard all footsteps, doors banging, people talking, etc. Unfortunately, the evening we stayed, there was a dog barking for a few hours in the early morning which kept us awake.
The hosts’ sons were friendly and very helpful. They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and more.

AustriaThe room was quite small and full with flies when we checked in (like 50-100 flies). They killed all the flies with fly-spray and we cleaned them away. Worst part was the missing sound-isolation from above (you will hear steps 1:1 until after midnight) and the dog that started barking continuously from 04:14 until 05:00 when the rooster started. Solid 4 hours of sleep.
Very nice location, only 10min drive to the pass with an awesome view!

IsraelNo curtains and noise from corridor/stair case and other rooms. No sound isolation. Small bathrooms with the usual flooding when showering - but slippers were provided. Only white light, as usual in Albania.
The staff was very warm and friendly and the home made pasta/wine/ olive oil/ yogurt /honey were delicious! Mother of the house aka chef did spend 20 yrs in Italy and learning culinary arts there. It shows. Hiking trail starts right there too. Beautiful garden to sit in. Bed was very comfortable too.

United StatesThe bed was shaped like this - W. Huge dips on both sides, really uncomfortable. The food is great, but the service is bad. Everyone is just sat on your phone and you can’t get their attention. The mom was attentive but she was mostly in the kitchen. Wouldn’t stay again.
The food is excellent. Very fresh pasta and a big breakfast included. The coffee is extra which wasn’t indicated to us when we ordered. The location is beautiful and close to hikes.

AustriaWe absolutely loved it at Alberti. The owners are so sweet, the home made pasta are delicious, and the dining room with its big fire place is super cozy! The room had everything we needed, and we went on a beautiful hike which started just outside of the hotel. We will come back some day!

GermanyThe price was too high for the size of the room without a view. On top of that, the breakfast was too small and just okay. I also can't recommend their restaurant. The home made pasta portion was small, served at room temperature and pricy. The typical Albanian food was nothing special either.
The staff was friendly, always willing to help and communicating in English was possible.
