Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

AustraliaAmazing hotel located just out of the noisy part of El Niño . Immaculately clean , beach front with great views. Good fridge / freezer , great A/C and fan. Great staff and owner go beyond the norm. Secure and reasonable price for what you get . We spent 3months travelling around the world staying in hotels like the intercontinental ect. And we rate this hotel as the best overall. Very happy

CanadaSometimes the shower pressure fell very low and wasn't hot..but that is a minor complaint.
We loved our stay here, even though we were very sick for 4 of our 8 nights with a flu. At first we were disappointed our room with a balcony was on the 3rd floor but then we really liked the location of the room because it seemed like we had a whole floor to ourselves with privacy. There is even a water cooler on the 3rd floor so you don't have to go down 2 flights for water. Nora, who runs Chislyk Inn is wonderful. She helped us book a day boat tour and tricycles them we needed. She made sure we always had clean towels and clean sheets. Our room was clean and beautiful, the view outstanding. There is soap, shampoo and conditioner in the rooms. I whole heartedly recommend staying at Chislyk Inn.

NetherlandsThe bathroom is a bit small and basic. Unfortunately you couldn’t look out of the window and enjoy the view from our room. Housekeeping was daily and very nice but a bit too thorough since all our stuff was constantly touched and moved.
Great location on the beach and on the main street. Nice clean room and a very kind and helpful host. Amazing view and nice place to sit outside. We had a great stay!

United StatesOur stay was perfect. This place is small, but so comfortable and welcoming. Laura is friendly and makes you feel 'at home' as soon as you arrive. The rooms are minimal but have everything needed. The location is great. There's a fantastic breakfast place next door and you can enjoy breakfast on the beach. Laura, the owner, can set up tours for you, and you'll leave right from the beach at the hotel. There's many shops and restaurants all in a 0-10 minute walk. The only thing I needed while there was a bigger freezer. But that's my fault for not packing our bag cooler. Other than that, it was perfect. This place is inexpensive and definitely worth more.

ItalyIt is very noisy… if someone is having a conversation in the reception or the next room it feels like they are in the room with you… but it’s very quiet at night. The bathroom is also very small (the shower is just a shower head over the floor). But to be honest I write these things only to help others, in case it’s not what they want, but I didn’t find them a problem at all. For what I paid and for what I wanted it was perfect.
A very simple room and bathroom, but it was perfect for what I needed. The patio area looking onto the beach is amazing. Great location. Some good bars and restaurants nearby. Excellent coffee next door. But the best thing was the staff. Nora was very lovely and accommodating. I originally booked for just myself but then my friends needed to join, and there was no problem in accommodating them. Thank you! I really appreciate it.

DenmarkThe only thing that made us feel a little bit uncomfortable, was the re-placement of our all our staff, especially when this was not needed for the cleaning. We don't want to sound ungrateful, but for example, folding of all clothes (including dirty laundry) which are already in a suitcase on a suitcase stand, was not necessary.
THE VIEW! Omg, we have never stayed in a room like that. One word - magical! The cleanliness was impeccable! The room literally smelled fresh and super clean. The location was amazing - still in the city but far from all the noise. it was perfect!

TurkeyThe Bad: The rooms are not sound proof. It means you will definitely hear every single word spoken in the next room, every motorbike passes by etc. Some guests might be very noisy at night, good luck with sleeping if that happens. The chairs could be more comfortable instead of wood furniture.
The Good: Location, cleanliness, staff and the owner Nora are all great. I felt welcome everyday of my stay. You can book your tours with them.
