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.).

IrelandEverything was great, there was nothing to dislike!
The apartment was beautiful, clean and well furnished. There were two balconies with wonderful views of the sea and mountains. It was lovely to watch the wild goats on the mountain side The hostess was delightful and extremely helpful and friendly. The beach was a short walk away as were the restaurants and bars. Everyone was very friendly.

GreeceThese are older facilities but this was expected, as many buildings in this area are. Facilities were honestly and accurately represented online so we were fine with it!
Kind owners! This place is exactly as described online and in photos. It’s a great value for the price, especially for those with families that need a larger room. It has one building between itself and beach but some balconies may have a partial sea view. Short 3 min walk to beach. Had everything we needed. We would return again in the future. Thank you!

United KingdomWe loved everything about the studio. Some may find it unsuitable due to steep staircases to apartment and to mezzanine bedroom.....but it was absolutely perfect for us.🥰
Wonderful peaceful location with the most welcoming, helpful and gracious hosts, Athenia and Eva. Thank-you. We feel very fortunate to have stayed in your comfortable and spacious studio apartment for a whole week. The beds were oh so comfortable! Excellent location for all the walking and exploring we did. Lovely stony beach nearby with crystal clear waters. We hope to return one day. It really was a little bit of heaven! We also ate twice at Artimis restaurant and it was one of our favourite places to eat out of all the restaurants in Agia Roumeli. Well done to this lovely family who are working hard to give those who venture to this remote and rugged place, such a wonderful time.

United KingdomMezzanine bedroom area was very hot. Problem only solvable by using the air conditioning for a couple of hours before going to bed, which lasted most of the night (remote control available for A/C for quick cooling if required). Eva and owners aware of the issue and offered this advice/solution.
Apartment - enormous and spacious, especially for a single person. Separate mezzanine bedroom area and two balconies, one mountain facing and one side sea view facing. Air conditioning available, but two enormous high windows provided enough breeze during the daytime if both opened not to need it. Location - at the end of the beautiful village, a minute from the quiet black sand and pebble beach into the crystal clear blue waters of the Libyan Sea. Better location for having a little distance from the many day trippers and hikers exiting the Samaria gorge most days. Village located at the end of the gorge, and only accessible by ferry (stunning ferry ride along part of the south coast of the island). Very easy to walk up the bottom end of the gorge (which I did). Host - Eva was lovely. Always on hand for information and advice, and we even managed to have a lovely conversation in my broken Greek and her broken English!

DenmarkMy dad and I spent a week travelling around Crete and this was the best place we stayed. The host was super friendly and made us feel so welcome. The accommodation was perfect for us to relax in between adventures and we especially liked having coffee on the balcony overlooking the sea. Agia Roumeli is a very cute town surrounded by stunning scenery and has some beautiful walks. Can't recommend this place enough!

Good location away from the beach crowds, but still very close to the beach and restaurants. This is a very well-run family operation: friendly, helpful and professional, and full of local knowledge about the area. They also have a restaurant nearby (studio guests receive a discount!). The studios are large, comfortable and very clean. The wifi was acceptable. We would definitely stay here again.

GreeceNot possible to pay using a POS for debit/credit cards. I was offered instead, to type in my card details into the manager's smart phone (which I found inappropriate to say the least), or to pay cash on the spot and receive a receipt the day after.(which I think is very bad form and possibly illegal)
Clean, decent room at a fair price.
