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.).

Location and view. Amazing private little deck with the best sunset views.daily room cleaning. Easy access to public free parking. Unique original place built high up into the hill. We loved that EVERY day was leg day and if you're not a fan of that,there are the sweetest donkeys that take you up and down.

AustraliaThe railing on the private platform just needs a minor repair / screws tightened but that’s all.
Fantastic location. Amazing viewpoint which is private, you cannot put a price on this at Oia. Daily cleaning service so the apartment was always clean. Great apartment facilities, hot shower. Fontino organised transfers and laundry at our request which was very easy - great communication. Thanks Fontino!

TaiwanIt might be due to the season, but the sunset view from our terrace was somewhat obstructed by buildings. However, this wasn't an issue since Oia has many spots for watching the sunset, and the view from the room's window is irreplaceable! Additionally, the bathroom ceiling is a bit low, and I bumped my head a few times, but this is part of the unique charm of Oia local house.
The furnishings in the suite are very cozy, making it feel like staying in a local's home. The room is fully equipped with everything we need, including a basin and laundry detergent for hand-washing clothes! The view from the window is unforgettable and stunning, making us want to stay in the room all the time. We stayed for two days, and the thoroughness of the cleaning staff the next day was impressive, with even the smallest details meticulously cleaned. On our way back, Mr. Fotinis arranged luggage delivery for us, solving the problem of carrying luggage on the Oia stairs. We are very happy to have stayed at Fotino’s House.

The terrace from where we could see the sunset is amazing! Also, it is a great view on the bay from the same terrace. The room is really cosy and homy, well equipped, with great view, practical kitchenette and a very charming bathroom. Fotinos is very prompt in answering, and very helpful and friendly.

AustraliaThe chairs provided on the balcony are way too large for the space - two cannot sit side by side and see the sunset. Luckily we could use chairs from inside the property.
The view of the sunset was fantastic and our balcony area provided us with privacy and space to watch it despite the huge crowds.

United StatesOnly complaint was no breakfast in the morning, but there are so many great restaurants to serve you, it was of little importance.
What a beautiful spot the Fotinos House was. Asproulis was a superb host, and his staff were amazing keeping the place clean daily. The location is magical for sunset time, and very close to restaurants and stores, the bus station, and the town square. We loved the private spot this place has for viewing the sunset!! Very romantic and just a wonderful stay for my wife and I. We would most definitely love to stay here again. Thank you Fotinos House for a dream vacation.

Beautiful location.Private viewing area at sunset. We stayed in the cave house, just as pictured, traditional, just lovely. Very clean , good wifi. Our host organised a taxi to and from the airport which was great. Quite a few stairs to the property, a wonderful man carried our bags which was greatly appreciated. The house was cleaned each day by a lovely lady , who was so friendly. When we arrived the fridge was stocked with water, beer and fruit juice , the kitchen was stocked with pepper, salt oil, herbs , coffee and sugar, great to have some basics. We would definitely stay again.
