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.).

United KingdomThe placing of the heater I kept bumping my leg on it 😂
The property was massive, well kept, clean and had everything you could need. The owner was super lovely, helpful and willing to provide assistance with transport or recommendations. Nearby Plaka - there is plenty to do there or easy to catch a bus from into the Port and arrange a quad to go exploring

New ZealandThe only down side is that it’s not close to the beach but that’s not a problem if you have a car.
Friendly and helpful, nothing too much trouble. Great communication. Comfortable beds and pillows. Loved the deck - good space for 5 people. Loved being able to walk into Plaka for dinner.

RomaniaOur stay at Viva Vivere Houses in Milos was perfect. The 1-bedroom apartment has a well-equipped kitchen (even refilled olive oil!) and daily cleaning service. Aris, our amazing host, provided tailored recommendations and was always available for any questions. The bathroom amenities went above and beyond, including body cream and a shaving kit. We also received beach towels which was extremely handy. The location, combined with Aris's hospitality, made our first visit to Milos unforgettable. We can't wait to return and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the island.

AustraliaNothing, everything was just amazing.
Perfect stay in Milos, Aris and the staff at Vira Vivere were fantastic. We stayed in Room 4 which was clean and had everything we needed. Room was cleaned daily and we had a lovely view of Plaka from the balcony. Aris was the perfect host, he organised our boat tour to Kleftiko and dinner reservations for the sunset at Klima. We had our carpark spot as well. Highly recommend this place, it made our stay at Milos even more memorable. Thank you!

Our favourite place we stayed along our travels! Aris was an excellent host, from organising transport, to recommending beaches and places to eat. Location was excellent, close to beaches and in between the main towns, definitely need ATV or car. Absolutely loved our stay, can't wait to visit again.

New ZealandWe attempted to do most of our cooking at the accommodation as there was a good kitchen, only comment is it would be helpful if there were a few more kitchen items to assist with cooking.
Ari’s was a great host and offered advice and recommendations for all over the island which was great. The property was very clean and comfortable. There was parking on site which was helpful. We would definitely recommend this accommodation to anyone visiting Milo’s, we loved our stay.

United StatesEverything was great!
We stayed in one of their very spacious homes which had three bedrooms, many outdoor spaces, a kitchen and living room. We loved the amazing outdoor patio which gave us a view of the sea and overlooked the soccer field, which my son loved. We had a car which was useful for this location as most things we did were not within a walkable distance except for a few cafes. However, as small as Milos is we could easily access Plaka, Adamas and all the beaches on the eastern side of the island. The host was very kind, accommodating, informative and welcoming. The facilities were clean (and cleaned everyday) and comfortable.

AustraliaOn arrival, the host sat us down with a map and gave us recommendations for all the places we should go and told us how to get there. He was super lovely and even went as far to make sure we were getting onto our ferry safely. This place had everything you need with private toilets, kitchen, aircon and even a couch with a tv. Quick walk to the bus stop too.

Hong KongWhilst the bedroom was lovely, the rest of the unit was a little outdated and in need of renovation. Otherwise, a lovely stay :)
Aris was a very attentive host and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Small things like allowing us to store refrigerated medication in his office on the day we left and carrying our bags made us feel well looked-after. The location is a short walk from Plaka and we found it suitable to see other places.
