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.).

Amazing hosts! Thank you Stella for responding to messages quickly and providing information about Sifnos. Lovely breakfast and the lifts to and from the ferry port were great. Thanks for letting us leave our luggage on the day of checkout and use the pool area later to shower and change before leaving on the ferry to our next destination. Quiet location with lovely sea view.

FranceOur stay was perfect at the Margado. Stella and Nikos are the best hosts. The room is comfortable and clean. The breakfast is delicious and if you’re there on Sundays you have to try the traditional chickpea soup, cooked for hours by Nikos. The pool offers a moment to relax after the beach or trekking, with a beautiful view of the mountains of Kamares. Stella is kind and always available to share the best tips about Sifnos. I strongly recommend it!

United StatesThe only thing we found a little challenging was that the air conditioning did not go down enough to make our room cool quickly and it wouldn't work unless all the windows and doors were closed and we were inside the room. We found a method to first open all the windows and doors to let the breeze blow through to reduce the stuffiness and then shut the windows and doors, so the air conditioning would work--it was hard in the in between--when the room was still hot but we couldn't open any doors or windows.
From start to finish, the stay at Margado was beyond our expectations. The owner team (husband, wife, and adult daughter) found the perfect balance of professionalism and familiarity. I felt like a valued client but also a warmly welcomed friend. They treated us with sincere kindness, as though we were new friends visiting in their own home. The facilities were flawlessly clean and beautiful, and the location, perched above the port town overlooking the harbor, was stunning. We loved the vigorous walk up and down the hill to the shops and restaurants. The food served for breakfast was varied and delicious. The owners had two sweet, clean, and calm dogs and an entertaining parrot.

I enjoyed every minute of my stay; particularly in the afternoons when I would sit on my little balcony and watch the boats sail in and out of the port. The room was clean and comfortable. Stella, Nicos and family made me feel very welcome. I enjoyed my breakfast each morning with fresh orange juice and superb coffee.

New ZealandSifnos is such a cool island and this property was quite the gem! The staff are so friendly and welcoming, they picked us up from the port and took us up to the hotel. Breakfast each morning was great and the room we were in had amazing views! The pool was a must after walking up the hill and being able to cool off easily. Only 5 min walk down to the main food area and beaches. Would recommend and stay again!

United KingdomNot really a dislike but for awareness, the accommodation is up a very steep hill (probably 40-50° incline) which may be problematic for those with mobility issues - the transfer is essential for luggage!
