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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

We loved every thing about Baven-Toven Naturae. We are touring Montenegro and Albania on bicycles, staying in lots of different sorts of accommodation and this has been our favourite. It was not the easiest of locations to access on a bicycle but Biron came down the hill in his car and took our panniers and even offered to come back and collect us and the bikes but we walked up and it was worth the climb. It is stunning, so peaceful. We booked the small house and it is small, Biron offered us the biggest chalet for no extra charge but we just loved the location of the little house. We stayed three nights there and to truly appreciate the location it is worth staying more than one night. We did two lovely walks directly from the house, one with Biron and Jessie, their cute dog, to a waterfall, more of a scramble than a hike, where we could swim and another walk going towards a church perched high on the hill. There are 3 or 4 restaurants within walking distance but we just enjoyed the lovely food offered by the family. So much lovely food. We loved that when we woke up in the morning we could hear the sound of the river from below. We loved sitting on the sun loungers in the afternoon, chilling, listening to the sounds of nature. Thank you very much Biron, your mum and the lovely lady who did all the cooking, we absolutely loved our stay.

United KingdomThe roads around the area are a little daunting if you are not used to driving in Albania, if you take them slow and steady they are ok though.
You are in a lovely area, the mountains surround you and there are lots of walks to go on and many interesting things to see. A great spot for nature lovers. The pool is from mountain spring water and although not crystal blue it is lovely and refreshing and you don't smell of chemicals. The owners are lovely people and offer tasty meals You have a mix of nationalities going here and everyone is talkative, it makes for a nice atmosphere. We will be going back 100%

Beautiful location with stunning view, very friendly host (family) and delicious dinner & breakfast. Also we found out at Berat that we forgot our wallet and the host offered to drive to Durres (half way), where we met. You can’t imagine how grateful we were with this very kind gesture and that shows how contributed the host is to serve his guests the best service ever. Again, many thanks for your support!

We stayed 6 nights with this warm family. Good stay with beautiful nature. Dinner and breakfast were very tasty and cheap, we always had our bellies full. There is air conditioning in the rooms that works perfectly, and you can also cool down in the swimming pool. Bajron, Tonini, Mimosa and the whole family are super hospitable! We were allowed to use the car or Bajron did small errands for us. We will definitely come back.

NetherlandsNothin. Even the beds were perfect !
This place is magic on earth. The family is the sweetest people you will ever meet and will do anything and everything possible to make you enjoy yourself. We came with 2 small children and truly felt like we had moments to relax because they even helped keep an eye on them and entertained them. We went for an adventure to the waterfall and they helped us the whole way and watched our oldest. We were planning to leave after 3 nights but decided to stay for an extra because of how lovely this place is. There’s a reason they have perfect reviews ! I’ve never left a review before in my life but I couldn’t not for them. 12/10!!

The guesthouse is fully immersed into nature. Apartments are new and clean. The family who owns the business is really nice and available. I arrived late at night and one of the owners helped me bringing the car to the guesthouse as the road might be a bit difficult (quite steep) if it's night. Then I got offered a snack before going to bed (cheese, bread and beer). Breakfast is delicious. Everything is locally produced and tastes amazing. Stop in here! I definitely recommend.
