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.).

SwitzerlandNothing - everything perfect.
Spacious, clean, practical, well built, functional, and a super location close to the beach. Easy access with shaded parking. Great bakery just across the road with good value-for-money. Last but not least very close to the airport, with a super view of the planes landing.

United KingdomWith the exception of a small card welcoming guests with the WiFi code there was no other information or 'welcome pack' for information or guidance (not even a bottle of water in the fridge or the usual 'don't put paper in the toilet' notice), so maybe they are more geared to the totally independent traveller with car. Manos did respond when asked so no complaints there, maybe I gave the impression I was totally independent (I'd been to Rhodes and Santorini before). Didn't bother me but noisy dogs barking next door to the bakery, and airport is not far so jet noise audible - but I wouldn't let that deter me from staying again, had a very good time here.
Room was very clean and tidy, overlooking the entrance garden with a small balcony ovelooking field behind. Wi-Fi good, air con kept the room comfortrable for sleeping during hot nights. Bakery opposite was great for coffee and drinks - open all hours and so friendly with awesome selection of cakes and baguettes etc. There was a minimarket and tavern nearby too, didn't use because I was out most of the day. Bus stops (I didn't have a car) very close made access to Heraklion easy for local bus to Knossos and excursion bus picked up at nearby Karteros Hotel for longer trip to Spinaloga. Ideal for a 'quieter' holiday away from the crowds but with good access to all the

United KingdomMy apartment was one of the old ones, so it felt a bit outdated and old. The airport is nearby and planes can be quite noisy.
The apartment was clean and spacious, and located in a great position, out of the traffic of the city and near the sea, you can easily reach the beach by walk in few minutes. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I loved to have breakfast on the balcony.

EstoniaAll was good, really nothing to complain about. The only thing we missed was a washing machine, but the staff was kind enough to advise us on a laundromat not far from the property.
The room was huge, with a nice living area and a big bedroom with a nice comfy bed and air conditioning throughout the apartment - which is a huge plus considering the temperature outside. The terrace was also big and with shadow. The location was super, with a 15 min access to Heraklion Center by bus, store and bakery with great coffee and deserts right across the street from the apartments, and a 10 minute walk to the beach. The staff was super nice and the room service once a day was a nice bonus. The location also has a nice small view of the sea, and all the amenities were awesome. A nice thing is as well that the rooms are very well sound proof, no noises from outside are heard. The cats were also very nice and a cool addition to the experience 🐱

CyprusThe toilet was on ground floor and the bedroom is on 1st floor , so need to walk downstairs in the middle of the night . Not convenient for older people . Shower very small .
The spacious apartment was clean and well appointed although decor and furniture seems to be from the 1980s . Nice gardens . Walking distance to beach . Bakery/Coffee shop opposite . Supermarket 3 minutes walk . Aircon worked well. Beds very comfortable . Helpful owners . Each flat has outside table ,chairs and sunbeds under pergola .

BelgiumNothing really.
We arrived late but were happy to be so close to the airport. With the windows closed, there wasn't too much noise from the planes though. The room was very spacious with enough light everywhere. They didn't serve breakfast, but there was a bakery across the door. Also several shops and restaurants on walking distance...

FranceEverything was perfect for me.
It's a great choice if you need a place near the airport (7-min drive, 20€ taxi). I stayed there for one night, and it was perfect. The communication with them was very good. My flight was a bit late, and they waited for me at the reception with the keys and helped with everything I needed. There is a taverna nearby to have dinner and a bakery to buy coffee and breakfast. Will come back for sure if I need to stay near the airport!
