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.).

PolandGreat place! When I was in Heraklion, I returned here for the second time. The apartment, as usual, met the greatest expectations, great and helpful host. Clean, atmospheric and comfortable. A big advantage is also the location, literally 2 minutes from the bus stop from where you can get to every place. The great view from the large terrace is impressive in the morning. I'll be happy to come back again.

I was in Heraklion for three nights. It was my first time and everything was excellent. The apartments are wonderful. Very responsive owner. In my opinion, an excellent combination of price and quality. Good location. There is a bus stop nearby. You can get there in any direction - to the beach, to the city center and to the airport. Everything is very close. Nearby there is a wonderful cafe and grocery stores. Not far from this location I found an excellent hookah bar at very good prices. The apartment is clean, has everything you need, good internet and a wonderful bedroom. I really liked the large balcony with stunning views of the city, sea coast and mountains. Thank you very much, I give it a rating of 10/10. I'd love to come back here again.

CanadaThe bedroom lighting could be improved. It's a fluorescent ceiling fixture. Bedside reading lights and a bedside table would help. Hot water was plentiful but the shower is very tight so hard to avoid splashing water everywhere.
A very spacious, private and quiet apartment in a small building with the host living downstairs. There is a large balcony with seating and a table for eating outside. It's a 45 minute walk to the centre but the local bus service is cheap and convenient. One bus takes you directly to the city centre. Lots of coffee shops, supermarkets, bakeries and tavernas in the immediate area. There is free street parking and it was not too difficult to find a spot. The host was extremely helpful and accommodating.

CanadaI didn't mind the walk to/from the center - like 10-15 minutes. it's nice since there's a park and a boardwalk along the seaside all the way to the center. I'd gladly take that together with quiet good night sleep and privacy (not possible to get if you stay in the center). Anyways, there are tons of buses (direct to the airport/port) running all day
Everything was extremely clean, comfortable, and spacious with a great view from the terrace like others have said, and the super friendly and accommodating host. The apartment is well thought-out and arranged for travelers' needs. There are lots of cafés, markets, and eateries in the area, but the apartment itself is quiet all day.

We were there for a whole month and enjoyed our stay so much we would’ve happily stayed for longer. The apartment looks just like the pictures, apart from the balcony view where it doesn’t do it justice. Such a nice spot to eat in the morning or at night as the suns setting. Sometimes local cats come visit which is nice. They provide you with everything that you’d need in the flat even a grater which I was surprisingly excited about as I don’t think I’ve used a grater more in my life. The bed was comfy and there was plenty of space to hang your belongings. Living room includes a sofa bed, 2 tables and tv with Netflix included. Kitchen comes with a microwave and 2 hobs which was plenty enough for us! We didn’t have any mode of transport other than our legs so we basically walked 10km in all directions. It’s a About a 10 minute walk to a beach, 2 minutes to a local large supermarket, 2 Lidls within 15 minute walk, and 2 gorgeous bakeries under a minute walk away that we’re both open late. Lots of cafes too! We found an amazing little plates restaurant which was so affordable and they give you free raki and dessert as a custom! Not sure about the name as it’s in Greek but it was on Elefthernis road, 5 minute walk from the apartment. Overall really lovely location. Our stay was made much better by how lovely the hosts were, we have promised to come back again :D

HungarySmall bathroom, but manageable. The other features of this apartment however more than compensate for this.
We chose this apartment based on the very good reviews, and we were not disappointed. The location is just right, somewhat close to the centre (Venetian Gate is about 15-20 mins of casual walk, port is about 25-30 mins), and we could always find a parking place for our rental car in the street (free). By car, we were on the ring road in just a few minutes, so it was a good base for exploring the region. The host communicated well, and provided a small welcome package with a craft local drink and some items in the kitchen (water, jam, butter, some bicsuits, etc.). The balcony is huge, and the view is just as good as you see on the pics, we enjoyed it a lot. There is a shade for the table on the balcony, and we had our home meals there. The apartment was clean and spacious. The kitchen is well equipped. The washing machine was a big bonus for us, as we could refresh our clothes during our stay. All in all, we were very pleased with the apartment, you simply can not go wrong choosing Sunrise Apartment for this price. We will be back... Try out the pistachio ice cream at the bakery at the main road corner, it is worth it :)

NetherlandsThe bed was not very soft and that might take a night to adjust to. This is personal preference though and doesn't take away from this amazing apartment.

Bus stop is a 2 minute walk but if you enjoy walking, you can get to the centre in less than 30 minutes. Great restaurants and bakeries/cafes close by. We would absolutely recommend staying here.
