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.).

SpainGreat beautiful place for us to spend our honeymoon! Amazing view in one of the classic Santorini houses, without having to get into a crowd of a bunch of other people to see the sunset. The son on the family run business took great care of us and provided top notch service, with the little extra touch. Very nice and personable. Would recommend for sure!

The location was stunning. The owner was lovely, he met us from the taxi and helped carry our suitcase all the way to the suite. It is quite small- cave like style, but very cute and we loved it.

Really great no matter the house location and the facility of the room,especially the host Chris who is really helpful and kindhearted,helped us to take the luggage and show all things about this island. the house is near the castle of the Oia which is the best view spot for the sunset and sunrise,the house is facing the Aegean Sea ,you just need to pull out the door you could see the sea and enjoy the sun and sea wind…That’s really amazing !!! By the way,Chris provided the free fresh orange juice ,toast,cheese ,the ham in the mini bar,and coffee ,a lot of mineral water,the bed is comfortable so that we slept really well…So lucky to stay here…

United KingdomChris was a really good host and he was very responsive. He made sure to pick us up from the coach station when we arrived and helped us with the suitcases. The cave house is located at a fantastic location, just slightly away from the busy path and we had unobstructed sunset view. Prosecco, water, bread, cheese and ham were provided in the fridge upon arrival. Would 100% come back if I were to visit Oia again!

Perfect location! You can watch the sunset from the balcony. Plus Cris was very helpful! He recommended us nice restos and places where to go during our stay. Also helped us with our luggage. We can also message him anytime if we needed help thru Whatsapp. Free Wifi was a plus! Also, plus points was the charging adaptor! We forgot ours and surprisingly, there’s one in the drawer!

New ZealandWould have been even more amazing with a pool
Chris was an amazing host!! He organized all our transfers as well as carrying our bags (down some steep stairs) to the accommodation. He was available all day on message for any questions we had and even provided us with a bottle of bubbles to welcome us to the island! The room was perfect, exactly as pictured and in a more quiet part of Oia, we were able to watch the sunset privately without the crowds. Would absolutely stay here again and have recommended it to friends!

United StatesThe sunset is amazing but you can't see the sun actually dip below the horizon since it goes behind other lodging shortly before actual sunset. It was totally fine with me but if you want to see it set above horizon you'll need to walk elsewhere.
Location is basically on side of cliff in a cave type setting. Very cool and amazing view!! air conditioning worked great since we were in a heat wave during stay. Host gave us a map and gave recommendations, carried our bags through intricate system of paths to lodging. No set breakfast but there was water in fridge along with bread meat and cheese and coffee. And a bottle of prosecco!

The view of the white houses and the ocean and the caldera/volcano and other islands is incredible. You can also watch the sunset from the private balcony. You can easily walk to Ammoudi Bay from the room too. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The shower was good. The room was spacious and also had Netflix. Our host, Chris, was amazing. he organised transfers for us, welcomed us and helped us with our bags, provided us with so many refreshments and treats. Chris gave us so much help and local advice.
