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.).

HungaryIt was very dufficult to find it by car, Google map took us to a deadend streets twice. Better to navigate to Hotel Gjirokastra, because it is very close to it.
Excellent location, friendly staff, good breakfast.

AustraliaThe check out time said 12pm but we got a knock on the door at 11am requesting to vacate the room for cleaning. 11am is reasonable we just weren't ready for it. The only other thing I noticed was that the shower curtain rail was attached to the light bulb wiring which seemed a little precarious. We had no problems with it though.
The family who runs the BnB is wonderful, really friendly. We sat out on their verandah with the main host and he offered us some Raki. Their breakfast was authentic and tasty. The room was spacious and had what we needed. Location was fantastic, easy walking distance to all the main attractions and the town. Their little dog Cappuccino is hilarious and a ball of energy (although they usually keep him out of sight from guests).

NetherlandsThis has nothing to do with the quality of the place but with the navigation towards it. Google maps does not work and points you to the wrong location. Make sure to search and navigate towards the cinema ( check foto). Behind the cinema you will find the street and the gate of the house. To park your car you can park it alongside the (steep) steet for free.
Friendly hosts. Great location and beautiful views towards to mountain and city itself. We also enjoyed a lovely Albanian breakfast. The place is authentic and we slept very well in this house.

CanadaWe had the room downstairs and we were really cold but we had lots of blankets to keep us warm at night. But the temperature was OK upstairs. The bathrooms were flooded (and there weren't any separation between the shower and the toilet) , when we took a shower, maybe a shower mat could improve that.
Very well placed in the medieval city. The hosts were very nice, we needed to leave early so they gave us lots of Petulla (albanian fried dough) to compensate the second breakfast we didn't take. The albanian breakfast was really good and complete.

United KingdomNothing in particular.
The location is second to none. You are in the center , but far from noise and busy streets, who can be overcrowded and noisy. The welcome is really great, warm and very friendly. The Manager is very social and puts you at ease, enjoying the Albanian Hospitality. Staff very friendly and helpful, not only carry my suitcases in the famous steep streets of unique Gjirokaster, but also drove me to catch the transportation to Saranda. Room is spacious and comfy bed.

The included breakfast was good, the view is stunning, especially when you go the 5 minutes to the castle. The turnishing was oldschool which we liked a lot.

United StatesGuesthouse host and his friends were up until after midnight sitting and talking very loudly near our room. Had to go out and ask them to be quiet. Also asked about a bus to Berat. He called his “cousin” who was the driver and we were told we had two seats in from reserved. Not true, no seats reserved and lucky there was two seats left.
Good location. Drove us to bus terminal.
