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.).

MaltaPerfect location, 1 min to Saranda beach. Very neat and quiet location but we mainly liked the host. She treated us like her own kids, we had to leave early before they serve breakfast and she made us come and have breakfast at our ideal hour. Apart from that she gave us some food with us for our long trip we had. will definitely come again! Thanks to the host (apologies I forgot the name)

United KingdomThe hot tub didn't seem to actually get hot. The cleaners kept leaving the window open and the AC was turning off so we would come back to a hot room. The final full day of our stay, the cleaners did not come and replace our towels etc.
All the food in the restaurant was delicious and great portions for the price. Room was stylish and comfortable and the staff were extremely attentive and helpful. Beach was on our front step.

Everything was great. The staff is amazing: everyone is always concerned with you, making sure you are having a good time. The hotel is very clean and it’s in a very good location. Parking is not exactly in spot, but they have a free private parking that the owner made sure to take me there and it’s indeed very safe.

CanadaIts located down a hill, so you have to carry your luggage up and down when you’re entering and exiting which is a bit challenging
It’s located close enough to everything but also far enough to be quite and secluded, its also sea front which is a bonus

United StatesI’m not a fan of pebble beaches. With proper footwear of course it’s OK.
The owners: Maria & her husband are very involved in all aspects of the property, from checkin to the restaurant/bar below the rooms. Maria’s breakfast is delicious (& filling)! Maria has a gentle energy & a ready smile as she genuinely loves being your Host. And she truly cares that your needs are met, so that you enjoy your stay. Location: Overall it’s good. A medium walk from the Ferry/Port. ~20 min. Note: The sidewalks are “in progress” as is much of that common city infrastructure, so your roller-bag will have a very bumpy journey. (I recommend you use the road, watching for the speeding e-scooters etc) Easy walk to restaurants & shops. Room: Very tastefully decorated with new furniture & bathroom fixtures. Lovely atmosphere. View onto their shared private beach (pebbles). AC works great!

MoroccoLeaving from this hotel We would have loved to stay longer
Everything was perfect during our stay. The FOTOS family was lovely and took care of us in the best way. The food was brilliant, with various traditional homemade dishes for breakfast and fresh items from the menu. The view from our room was great, and the beach access straight from the hotel was a fantastic bonus. Highly recommended for your stays. Thank you again for everything. PS: Atis gave us cake slices for our road back to the airport

United StatesEverything was PERFECT!
This is THE hotel! I’ve never had such a pleasant stay in my life. The room is great, nicely decorated, and very spacious with everything you need! The balcony to the sea has a spectacular sunset view. The shower pressure was awesome! Bed was very comfy as well! 24/7 parking is easy in the adjacent streets. Now, let me tell you about the BREAKFAST! OMG! The hotel is family owned by a couple, Mimosa Maria and Themistokli. Mimosa is a chef and makes fresh breakfast every morning with different food every day! Coffee, juice, typical pastries, eggs, bacon, sweets, cakes…The cakes, omg the cakes! I would go to bed excited for breakfast the next day. There’s also a restaurant with a lunch and dinner menu. The beach is small but great because there aren’t many people. The location is awesome, far enough from the crowds but still a walking distance by foot. Make yourself a favor and book this hotel, you will not regret it. We initially had it for 3 nights but added an extra one because of how amazing it was! I usually never leave reviews, but this place deserves EVERY compliment. Thank you Mimosa and Themis for making our stay unforgettable. Can’t wait to be back! I left feeling like I made new friends!

United KingdomOnly wish we could have stayed longer ☺️
This is a beautiful small boutique hotel with its own private beach area. It’s spacious, stylish and spotlessly clean, in a quiet location but just 10 minutes away from the port and main promenade . The owners ensure your stay is special - A lovely couple who look after you like a family member going over and above . The breakfasts are plentiful and cooked to order and we also had dinner there one night which was just delicious . If in Sarande, stay at this property !
