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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

United StatesBreakfast was incredible. They had so many delicious options and the spread was my favorite part of the hotel. Its location downtown made it easy to walk to the port, shops, and the bus station.

United StatesBath lighting is not great. Shower did not have a proper curb so water runs under the enclosure. Not horrible but annoying.
Location is great for old town and accessible by car. They have a parking spot in front to let you unload and check in. Also a deal with a close by garage for parking. Clean hotel nice staff, rooms were tidy with a nice garden view balcony. 10 minute walk from port terminal and rental cars. Very nice beds and lift is big. For a one or 2 night stay I would recommend.

BrazilThe fridge in the room was unregulated, and the apples and yogurt I bought were frozen solid after a night. Do not expect a modern hotel. The premises look a little outdated; there are red buttons in the room to signal "do not disturb" that seem to come from a 70s Star Wars movie. It is not really bad, just looks outdated.
I went to Crete in January for two days to visit the archaeological museum and the Knossos Palace. The location of the hotel is perfect. There is a public bus from Heraklion airport to a stop that is a short walking distance from the hotel. Quite close to this stop, there is another bus stop from where you can take a bus to Knossos Palace. All these bus rides were short (maybe 20-30 minutes) and cheap. The archaeological Museum (2-3 hours is enough) is really close (walking distance) to the hotel. You can walk to see the sea. There are hundreds of restaurants and stores nearby that are very busy even on a winter sunny day. However, in front of the hotel, there is a plaza with a few restaurants around it that was very quiet during my visit in January. There is a nice grocery store 200 meters from the hotel. The room was of a nice size with a large window opening to the plaza. The queen bed was comfy. There is a small fridge in the room. The electronic safe is large enough for laptops. I liked the breakfast service with good options, including a good variety of Greek spoon sweets (made of grapes, oranges, and other ingredients). I needed to depart quite early, and they offered me a breakfast box. The reception gave me a map during check-in.

The. hotel is in a great location close to the museum and within walking distance of all the sites in the core area and fronting on a nice square for some green space and places to eat, right outside the main entrance. We chose a room with a patio so we could sit outside and enjoy a glass of wine in the comfort of our own space. Breakfasts were outstanding.

United StatesThe layout of the rooms is odd. Its weird there isn't a dedicated bathroom. The shower is on the complete opposite side of the bed room from the sink. All the shapes and designs are very abstract as well.
The hotel was great value for the money based on the location being extremely close to the city center. It was also close to the port so we were easily able to walk there to make our boat in the morning. I also really like the electronic do not disturb monitor inside our room instead of having to use a hang tag. The room was also clean and tidy. We didn't spend much time at the hotel or eat there so I can't say much else.

GreeceGreat stay, for me location is spot on. Rooms very comfortable. I don't understand the comments on here about shower being located in a strange part of the room and separate from toilet and sink. First of all the shower cubicle is huge plenty of space to shower and dry yourself in there. Water pressure spot on. The toilet is in a separate little room so actually more hygienic.
