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.).

SloveniaThe only thing I would suggest is that the owners of the hotel try to correct the defect in the entrance door from the room that I noticed. The front door of the room does not block sounds well.
I was with my wife for 5 nights, we felt great, relaxed atmosphere thanks to the hotel workers. The hotel together with the pool are really clean. The breakfast is excellent, there are very nice beaches and good restaurants near the hotel.

CanadaGreat manager, Ina! Friendly, knowledgeable, attentive and helpful staff. Pool was great and clean, loungers very comfy as were all the amenities in this near-new hotel. Set back slightly from shores but between 2 little beaches. Drifting off to sleep to the sound of waves lapping in the distance was a treat. Parking was available with in/ out privileges. Great food in hotel for dinner. Try the fish and fish soup! Delish! Well appointed larger rooms with HD, fridge, Great views from all balconies-big enough for comfy private enjoyment with great chairs and table. Lots of details addressed. Fine wine and bar selections served throughout the day and poolside. Good typical morning breakfast with single small coffee included. A great choice. We e tended ur stay to enjoy touring more area sights and offerings.

DenmarkThe breakfast could be improved. The coffee was more or less lukewarm or cold every morning. They should find a better way to store it so it keep being hot. It was quite sad to not have a proper morning coffee every day for a week. Also it could be nice with a plant based alternative to milk, because not everyone can use cows milk, but this is of course a minor thing, I bought my own oat milk and the friendly staff stored it in their bar fridge for me, very nice of them:) There was no place to put your plate while taking food from the different boxes with eggs etc. so very difficult to open the lid and take the food while holding your plate. It would be nice to have the option to get plain croissant without the chocolate. It would be nice with some cheese slices for bread, some fruit yogurt and musli and the eggs seemed over cooked
We really liked the place and the people, especially the receptionist Bella was very welcoming and helpful when we arrived and throughout our stay, everyone was nice and helpful, also in the restaurant

IsraelThe hotel is not beachfront, most of the view is blocked by another hotel in front of the beach. The breakfast is the same every day, you get really sick of it after a few days, it's somewhat basic. There was a sewer smell coming out of the bathroom and the shower was clogged, and you feel everything is kinda not built in a good way.
The staff was nice and very accommodating, and the room was overall nice and clean and spacious. Its a bit far from the center so the beach was cleaner and not crowded. The pool is nice.

ItalySleeping for four was an exercise in discomfort. One of us had what was basically just a sheet thrown over a couch—I’m not kidding—while another was “treated” to a sofa armchair bed, which sounded better than it felt. Communication with staff often felt like a game of charades gone wrong. The outdoor swing chair was rusty, the windows looked like they’d given up on ever being cleaned, and the terrace door required the strength of a professional weightlifter just to budge. When we mentioned these things at the front desk, the response was simply: “impossible to fix.” Inspiring. Noise from outside carried straight into the room, water damage festered under the fridge, and the WiFi had serious commitment issues—slow, unreliable, and constantly kicking us off. The pool didn’t help either: dirty, hidden behind another building, and plunged into shade just when you’d actually want to use it. The little frustrations piled on, too. Parking needed a staff escort instead of a simple room key system, we were charged an extra 3% just for using a card, and a cappuccino cost €3—daylight robbery disguised as foam. Worst of all, when my card didn’t process due to a CVV typo, the manager flat-out told me I “had no money.” Not only untrue, but unnecessarily rude—and frankly the most memorable part of our stay, for all the wrong reasons.
We hated this hotel. And not in the casual, “ugh, Mondays” sort of way—but in the genuine, counting-the-hours-until-checkout kind of way. To be fair, the hotel does have a couple of strong points. It was “near” Ksamil—close enough that, if you squinted at a map and ignored scale, you could almost believe it. Parking was also conveniently nearby, though it felt like an escape room challenge: first, locate the front desk staff, then convince them to unlock it for you. Honestly, solving that puzzle might have been the highlight of our stay.

Switzerland- the location isn’t optimal since there isn’t much to do around the hotel, however the public bus stop that takes you into sarandë town / ksamil is a 1‘ walk away from the hotel!

Hotel was fairly cleen and close to the beach, though you have to pay extra to use sunbeds. Shower, beds and the overall state of the room was good. Food quality served at the pool was nice. The view from the suite terrace is gorgeous.

United KingdomAttention to detail lacking, it seems if things break they are left without being replaced. No shower door, clearly broken previously and not put back. No plug in the sink, blood spots on net curtains. Pool is basically shared with everyone around/people who walk in and mostly staff and family. Numerous broken sunbeds/parasols, pool not that clean with lots of grit on pool floor and broken tiles. Drinks seem a bit unreasonably priced for the quality, you are not allowed to even have your own water by the pool without being asked to remove it. Lots of confusion about mini bars with each room having something different in the fridge so check out was a bit confrontational. All in all just fell below expectations for the price
Very comfortable bed, ascetic look throughout. Modern look, great food in the restaurant. Some Staff are polite and friendly. Generally clean. Beautiful view(around hotel built in front) depends on which room you are in.
