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.).

IsraelNot a bad thing but note that the beach isn't walk distance but around 5 minutes drive (it was OK for us)
Everything. This is the perfect place to stay in Palakias. It is designed beautifully, the room is so pretty (and huge in size). The hotel is running by 2 amazing sisters which are willing to help in everything and make the guest feel great. The pool is nice after a long day at the beach. There are breakfasts to the room (that unfortunately we didn't have a chance to try) and really the best value for money you could ask for.

GermanyExtraordinary hosts! The whole atmosphere at Amente is very relaxed and chill. The design of the whole place was done in a very thoughtful and deliberate way with great attention to detail. But what really did set the stay apart from others was the hosts generous hospitality we were able to enjoy. We felt like home within minutes and your proposals to explore the area were spot on Irini! Thanks again!

We’ve been here for 7 days now and are very sad that we’re leaving tomorrow morning! The location is perfect (only 15min walk to town), the ‘Highway’ is 2 min away, there is 1 big super market next door and the area is suuuuper quiet. You only hear crickets at night and verrrry softly the live music from town which you only hear a little bit from the balcony if you listen closely. The staff, Chara in general is very friendly and helpful and warm. The breakfast possibilities are endless. They also have a Google maps full of food and beach and leisure activities so you don’t even have to think twice about what you can do in the area. The rooms are clean, spacious, romantic, modern and beautiful! Also the cleaning staff doesn’t come till after 12 so even if you want to sleep in, you don’t even have to put the ‘do not disturb sign’ on. Overall a 10 out of 10. Make sure you have a car so you can explore the island, but coming here feels like a home away from home! Will deffff come back here again when we ever choose Crete again! Thanks for the amazing hospitality !!!!

Poland!Nothing- Everything was fabulous
What is unique about this hotel is the personalized hospitality, the magic of ‘filoxenia’ that tradition of welcoming and treating guests with kindness and warmth. Beautiful property, the building is new and modern, as well the décor is modern with clean lines. The owners, especially kind, charming and truly welcoming. They helped me in any request I had and they had a vast knowledge of the area. The room is specious and clean. Breakfast is delicious and rich. Everything is handmade. The hotel is located in a peaceful surroundings. Everything was perfect, in my opinion is small luxury hotel. Highly recommend Dear Sisters my respect .

United StatesNothing!
From the moment we checked in, this hotel proved to be a cut above the rest. Nestled conveniently close to town, the location was ideal for exploring and returning to a comforting abode. One standout feature was their website, which not only provided restaurant recommendations but also allowed us to select our breakfast choices and specify a delivery time - a touch of modern convenience that made our mornings delightful. The rooms exuded elegance and charm, ensuring our stay was truly luxurious. But what set this place apart was the staff’s extraordinary hospitality. Their unexpected gestures, like surprising us with warm homemade cookies, wine, and tea, made us feel like esteemed guests in a friend’s home. If you’re seeking a place that beautifully melds modernity with heartfelt hospitality, look no further.

RomaniaSo so lucky to have been one of the first guests at Amente. We stayed for a week and it became our home while exploring the island. - as beautiful as the pictures, perfectly clean, peaceful, great breakfast, loved the shower, well isolated rooms, parking available, beautiful pool (though a little cold), subtle music throughout the day, great lightning, mirrors and curtains. - big and small acts of kindness from our hosts - did their best to welcome us a little early, extra coffee and food at breakfast, and just always authentically kind and smiling - we weren't familiar with the surroundings but Chara gave us the best recommendations and we fell in love with it. Believe it or not, the Plakias beach became our favorite beach on the island, especially at sunset

GreeceWhy am I praising Amente so much? Because I left with a feeling to eagerly return again. To be honest, this is also due to the fact that I was well biased from the pictures on what to expect, the splendid timing having spent the most relaxing part of my vacations there, or the fact that I love the area, maybe more than any other place in Greece. But still, as a place I would boldly argue that Amente should set standards and any other hosting place should follow such principles in the architectural / aesthetic part, the practicality or the size. We do not need mash production in tourism. Amente has 10 rooms in total on two levels. No need for more, no need for less. Let's not forget our ancestors. "Pan Metron Ariston", "In all, Modest is Excellence" . BUT. To be fair. What I didn't like was, the pillows. BUT, I only had to complain about it and it was fixed. I also didn't like that there were no trees to block the view from the street, BUT, this will take some to get fixed, till the trees grow. In fact, Amente has opened a few weeks ago, so let's see what the future will bring. Best luck and thanks for everything!
There are some rare cases when your staying goes beyond your expectations. There are some equally rare cases when the words or pictures or ratings cannot capture well the feeling you had while leaving the place that hosted you. I have never given a 10 before in my travel life, and I have traveled quite a lot for business or leisure purposes. What makes a 10? I think it is when multiple factors converge in being fulfilled to an uplifting state. What does uplifting staying means? It is when the place can spark emotions, can forge memories in a subtle manner when fulfilling your basic needs. It is for example the feeling of the dropping shower water on your body, the sun rays meeting and flirting with the color of the wall, the smile of the owner while saying goodbye, their eagerness to resolve any unexpected incident, the breeze in the cozy yard that can inspire you to read a book or write a poem or just relax by the pool. From an aesthetic perspective Amente has managed what other hosting places have forgotten in Greece. Respect the architectural tradition while being modern, respect the land space by blending in with its prime colors, so comforting for the eyes. From a hospitality perspective Amente has managed to answer in advance my needs before even expressing then. From practicality perspective Amente has managed to be equipped with all what you need to relax.
