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.).

AustraliaThe lady that runs the place is very friendly and helpful. The room was great. It was located at the start of the Theth Valbona hike and we ended up booking again on our return. They were kind enough to let us store a bag for a few nights while we hiked. The breakfast was great. The fried dough balls were some of the best I've had. The views from the restaurant were epic. Highly recommend.

Czech RepublicWe would appreciate having a black out curtain due to the light from outside.
We enjoyed the location above main part of Theth and the beautiful view of the valley. It was a 30 minute walk to the church. This guesthouse is a perfect starting (or ending) point for a Theth-Valbonna hike. Each morning we got a tasty breakfast. The room was cozy and clean. The sheets were soft. Our host was nice and funny.

United KingdomThere are no negatives, we had the perfect stay.
Surla was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to give us the best stay possible. She put us in a double room, despite plus booking a twin, as it became available and she saw from our notes that we are a couple. She gave us amazing advice on getting to the Blue Eye, and cooked some incredible home made food (more details below). Surla was kind and thoughtful, a perfect hostess. A massive thank you to her for making our holiday so relaxing and peaceful. The location was beautiful. It was the perfect place to start and end the day, especially for trekking as it took 1/2hr off the journey each way if you are heading to the Valbona pass. The breakfast was amazing and a very generous size, it kept us going all day! Surla was incredibly kind and made sure we had a vegetarian breakfast which was massively appreciated. We also had dinner there both nights. We ordered a mix of dishes (vegetarian soup, chips and bruschetta) and it all tasted incredible. It was lovely home made food which was comforting for the soul after a long day hiking. One thing to note if driving is that the road up from central Theth is a little treacherous but we managed it in a Skoda Fabia.

PolandGets a bit too hot in a cabin, so if you plan to spend a bit longer there there is a bit lack of space to relax during a day. Otherwise if you are out for hiking when day it doesn't matter.
Beautiful views, lovely owners, delightful breakfasts, spectacular location. Conveniently located on way to Valbone. Quite. Clean.

AustraliaThe shared bathrooms needed a little bit of work, daily cleaning/ frequently flushing toilets would be nice. Whilst we were staying there was a bit of construction going on so the noise and staff around was quite loud at times, especially since they didn’t stop till quite late and we were exhausted after our hiking so a bit of the peace and quiet was missing unfortunately.
Absolutely stunning guesthouse, the view was just magical. The lady running the guesthouse was so kind and helpful and the rooms were very comfy and cute. The breakfast included was delicious and super fresh and we ate dinner there both nights of our stay and thoroughly enjoyed it, the food was significantly better than Valbone.

Gorgeous guesthouse with fabulous hosts who went above and beyond. Beautiful food - fresh fish, wonderful pancakes with fig jam for breakfast. Views to die for. After hiking from Valbone to Theth on a warm day we were so pleased not to have to continue down the mountain into Theth and walk into our guesthouse directly on the path. This does mean that you have about 1.5 Km walk into town down a rough track not suitable for cars

United StatesThere is no heat, but warm blankets are provided. It took awhile for my feet to warm up, and I should have thought to put warm water in a bottle at the end of the bed or to warm my socks with the hair dryer.
The guesthouse was welcoming and had a hot homecooked breakfast and excellent coffee. You can arrive in the evening and order dinner off of a small menu. The location is up the hill from Theth on the trail, so it gives you a head start on the hike to Valbone.

Stayed in this guest house in the summer. Very much liked the warm welcome. Communication with the hostess was as comfortable as possible, and what stunning views open from the terrace, where you can sit and eat, or just look at the mountains.... Very tasty and hearty breakfasts and you can order equally tasty dinners. And also sells insanely delicious homemade wine, which I also definitely recommend you to try

United StatesGreat peaceful location away from Theth center, up the hill with a big view of the local peaks. The walk from Theth center is about 25 minutes with a bit of a hilly and rough road, consider a taxi if you’re not a walker or have a low clearance car. If you’re coming from Valbona this place is perfect, right on the trail. Clean and comfortable room. Delicious and generous breakfast included. Dinner is available too, good prices for a hearty meal. Best of all is the person running the place, who works incredibly long hours yet is kind and caring with the customers. We were sad to leave such nice company!

United StatesChose this guesthouse based on good reviews and location right on Valbone/Theth hiking trail. It is perched up the mountain about a 20/30 min walk from center of town (we walked to/from guesthouse but it may be possible to get taxi back up from center). Views are incredible and you feel nestled in nature. Hostess was lovely, friendly, helpful and provided expectational hospitality. Breakfast was filling and delicious. There did not appear to be any heating in our spacious room but blankets kept us toasty and we slept well. This is the type of guesthouse and service that makes a vacation truly wonderful.

SwitzerlandIt’s far from the “center” of Teth but you can have dinner at the place and it’s close from the starting point of the hike to Valbona, so worth it!

Great location for hiking Valbona and Pejes passo. The people are so nice and welcoming. They helped us when we discovered that our car is not able to reach the accommodation and picked us up even when it was evening. Food was great and we had amazing stay and felt like home 🙏.
