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...).

SlovakiaDuring our holiday on the island of Kos, we were extremely satisfied with the accommodation. Everything was perfectly clean, cozy, and equipped with everything we needed – and even more! In addition to standard comfort, we were pleasantly surprised by practical extras like a washing machine, dishwasher, toaster, hairdryer, and other useful amenities that made our stay even more enjoyable. Besides the comfortable interior, we also had access to a spacious terrace, which was perfect for drying our beach clothes or relaxing with a coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. Although parking wasn’t available directly in the courtyard, we had no problem finding a spot just 20–50 steps away on the roadside, which was absolutely fine for us. Right next to the accommodation, there is a smaller hotel with a swimming pool, which we could use for free – or grab a refreshing drink at their bar. As a result, we could sometimes hear music from the hotel, but we didn’t mind at all – we actually enjoyed having “free music” and a pleasant atmosphere! 😄 Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would gladly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and well-equipped place to stay on Kos. We would love to come back again

United KingdomI would have liked a hook for the shower, but that's only a small thing and in no way would it stop us from staying here again.
Nothing not to like, everything was excellent. Very helpful host Sandy, and friendly neighbour Chris. Would definitely recommend a stay at The Back Yard to anyone 🤩🥰

United KingdomThe shower was hand-held, it would be helpful to install a bracket to hold the shower head.
The property is conveniently located close to supermarket, restaurants and a karaoke bar, with a few minutes' further walk to the harbour-side and main beach. It felt very safe walking around later at night, though the immediate area seemed somewhat run down. The apartment was equipped with absolutely everything we might need for a week's holiday, including comprehensive laundry facilities. The kitchen was exceptionally well stocked with 'home from home' levels of crockery, cutlery and glassware and the bedlinen and towels were of excellent quality. Particularly liked the quiet and easy-to-operate air conditioning, the comfortable beds and the integrated filtered water tap.

United KingdomThere wasn’t anything we didn’t like
The owner met us and was absolutely lovely, very thoughtful and genuinely cared that we enjoyed our stay. The apartment was very comfortable with good quality beds and bedding. Fully equipped with every need catered for. The hotel next door was equally welcoming with great pool to use. The owner and The Agrilli staff went above and beyond. Location was excellent, supermarket just a few steps away and beach within minutes. Thank you for everything!

United KingdomThere was only one set of keys, which made things a little more complicated if we didn’t go out as a complete group - but not the end of the world
It was clean, there was plenty of room. The facilities were perfect. It was within walking distance to the main town, access to the pool next door. Very helpful couple and neighbours A nice touch would be a guest book, for guests to write there thank you’s in

United KingdomWe've just returned home from spending a week in The Back Yard. The apartment is perfect, it has everything you could need for your holiday. The kitchen is so well equipped, the beds are really comfortable. The shutters and air con give you relief from the heat. It has been refurbished to such a high standard, and beautifully decorated, it feels like a home from home. Right next-door is Hotel Agrelli, the staff there are so welcoming, and the pool & bar are lovely- try the greek BBQ night, you won't be disappointed! Thank you Sandy & Socrates for being so welcoming, and to Chris for the superb cleaning. We hope to be lucky enough to stay in The Back Yard again in the future.
