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.).

AlbaniaThe room was good enough, but there was the smell of mold could be felt, especially in the sink pipes in the bathroom. And the air-conditioner in the room was not functional. And imagine, there were a hotter day during two ours day in Joaninna. Breakfast not good enough. We waited something like bacon and boiled or fried eggs, any tomatoes, cucumber, any piece of excellent Greece cheese and not food like Croissants and dry food.
Staff was very hostable, especially the girls of reception. I would thanks the girl that was afternoon working. Eleni. She was very useful for us and helped us so much with information. Anyway, all the workers of the hotel were very hostable. And the ambient was very quite and comfortable.

AlbaniaCatfished, photos dont match the real condition of the rooms. Toilet door had no keys. Very poor amenities in the bathroom due to the fact that they consider themselves a 4 star hotel. There was unpleasant smell from the lockers. Furniture were old. Absolutely not a good value for the price we paid.
Mostly the breakfast. Staff was friendly.

PolandWhere to start..... 1. Terribly uncomfortable soft bed. My husband has extra kg, when he sat on the bed I was falling to a ditch. Couldn't sleep for 2 nights in the raw. I was only able to sleep when they changed it to 2 single beds, which were very small and again soft. 2. Dirty! The cleaning of the room is very poor, I add the photos here. Dust on the lamp, dirty table, not to mention the bathroom peed wall or dirt. The room was also damaged and had bad paint jobs, or broken elements. It was like a bunch of people came and had a very good party there. 3. No comforter only blanket (i wonder if they even wash it for every customer). When we asked comforter we heard that our clients do not want the comforter because the conditioner is overheating 😅 so the room had 27 degrees. After 2days we got the comforter but the bed sheet wasn't big enough and it was sticking out. 4. Breakfast was poor and sad and seemed low quality, not even nutella available. Coffee was one of the worst from all the 4* hotels I have been to. This is not a 4 star hotel! This is a joke. They even put one toilet paper in the room and the paper holder was installed 5 cm above the floor.😅. Paper was such a low quality it was not enough for 3h. I overpaid for this stay. Because they doubled the price due to NYE. It cost me around 140euro per night. I was so devastated by the conditions. No comfort unfortunately. I will not recommend this hotel to anyone.
The only good thing about this hotel is the staff. People working at the reception were friendly and trying to be helpful and cover for the bad decisions of management that lower quality of first use products. They also offered a dinner as compensation, but we didn't use it.

GreeceThe photos of the room I booked do not represent the actual room they gave me. I booked the single adult room which has pictures of a double bed and a balcony, but when you get the actual room, it's a quite small single bed and a window looking at the mountain. My room wasn't ready when I arrived, and it was already 1 hr past check-in. So i had to wait for it to be prepared. Value for money gets a 1, as for a similar room anywhere else in Greece during high season, I'd pay half the price reluctantly. Extremely expensive for what it offers.
It's a nice quiet hotel, with good breakfast and easy parking. The staff were welcoming and polite.
