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...).

United KingdomThese apartments are spacious enough to relax in, plenty of storage room for clothes and luggage and the bathroom is nice and spacious with a great shower. The cleanliness is spot on, the host is very friendly and the rooms are cleaned daily and are spotlessly clean. We have stayed here previously 6 years ago and they are great value for money. The location is at the top of the Main Street and up a little hill but more than manageable for people of normal fitness. There’s a lovely balcony to sit on with plenty outside drying availability and the gardens are very pleasant to look out on.

United KingdomThe studios do have a very good WiFi, but there is no television which was a shame as we missed BBC World with the Queen's funeral.
Koukounaries studios don't do breakfast, however there are plenty of local supermarkets. The host, Sophia is tremendous; she keeps the rooms spotless. The location is up the hill from the town towards Old Skala and has great views over the surrounding countryside. It's also very quiet apart from the odd cockerel that must make itself heard in the morning.

Sophia is very kind and friendly. The owners live in the apartment next door so check in and check out was very easy. Every day the room was cleaned. Air condition was very effective. The kitchenette was equipped.

United KingdomNothing we were unhappy with. Only thing to be wary of is that it is a continuous uphill walk back to the studios from the centre , which would be something to consider if not particularly mobile.
Feels like a country retreat despite only being a 10 minute walk from the centre of Skala. Nice views of both the sea and the countryside from the balcony. Room regularly cleaned and tidied- towels and bed sheets changed every few days. Air conditioning very useful during the hotter than usual weather…Wi fi reliable.
