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.).

This ethereal haven radiates tranquility, with a picturesque swimming pool. Beyond this, it’s the warmth and hospitality of the people here that truly elevates the experience. The owners, gracious and inviting, serve up a perfect slice of paradise. Each morning, we were greeted with an impeccable breakfast served in our room. Furthermore, the convenience of arranging a rental car and transfers through their assistance was the cherry on top. It made exploring the island's enchantments a breeze. Last but not least, their suggestion for local places and catamaran experience made our vacation unforgettable!

PolandNothing, I loved everything about it. I really wish I got a chance to stay longer, but that was beyond my budget 😅
About the stay - extremely spacious, clean, calming and most importantly, very comfortable rooms and furniture. I also loved their breakfast spread, I’m vegan and hence giving them a prior notice was helpful. About the staff - I travelled solo and was extremely scared at first about the safety, food, etc, but Panos (who runs AVAL) put me at complete ease with a warm welcome. He was kind enough to provide me an early check-in given my flight schedule and assisted me with the bus connections.

United KingdomEverything was amazing at the hotel! It is only the first year open so everything is immaculate. Although not situated in one of the main resorts, we loved staying so central on the island - as visiting the beaches and the main towns was made easily by the local bus network and our stop was only a short 5 minute walk away.
This boutique hotel, with its exceptional cleanliness and modern facilities, was the most perfect place to unwind and relax after a busy day on the island. Breakfast was beautifully presented and our own mini swimming pool in our 2 bedroom apartment was a very pleasant surprise!!

United StatesThe location was not a walk to the cool sites and shopping areas but honestly not a far taxi cab away either.
It is very conveniently located close to the airport. The staff, especially Dimitris, made us feel like we were home with family. The breakfast was absolutely delicious. We also had a light meal late the night of arrival that was better than many of the best tavernas. The decor of our accommodations also made us feel like we were returning home.

United KingdomThere was no shade around the pool which was a shame. Sun umbrellas really needed so you can stay outside. Not much to see/do in immediate area of hotel but five mins walk to bus stop and easy to catch bus in and out of Fira/Oia.
We loved it. AVAL is very new, so everything felt new and clean and smart. The decor is beautiful, all very tasteful. The bed was the comfiest bed I've slept in in years! Great big shower and good kitchen facilities though we only used the kettle and fridge. Lovely pool. Hot tub on the terrace, though it was so hot we didn't feel the need to sit in hot water! Lovely staff, very helpful.
