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.).

SloveniaWe absolutely loved the stay at the Gjin Thana! The family is very friendly and helpfull, the guesthouse is located in the perfect place for the best views. The breakfast was delicious and it was such a pleasure to have a breakfast with such an amazing view. The dinner choice was great, with plenty of foods and everything we had was delicious (but have in mind that the portions are big). It was perfect.

GermanyOne of the best hotels that we have ever been to. You HAVE to book a room if you stay in Theth - if you can get one. Especially the room with the mountain view is worth every penny. The room is very modern, clean and well designed, which we rarely encountered in all of Albania. The bathroom/shower is also big and comfy. Location is amazing since you have an insane view of the mountains, even if you don't have a room with a mountain view, you can enjoy it from the terrace. You even have a direct path for the Theth - Valbona hike which is nice. The food is also very delicious and all cooked by the mother of the family. We tried a few different meals and everything tasted great. They even have a winter garden when it rains, so you can still enjoy the view while dinning/during breakfast. The "staff" aka the family is extremely friendly and helpful. They will help you with anything you need. We asked for example for a sandwich for the hike which we got shortly after and it was big and very tasty. It was such a wonderful 2 1/2 days there which we will never forget.

Everything was incredible! The breakfast and really all the food is amazing! The property itself is to die for. It is a little higher up than some of the other places so there’s about a 7 minute walk from the center but completely worth it because the views, especially at sunset are to die for! You also meet a few nice cow along your path and a few cute piggies. Overall, a 10/10

United StatesThe WiFi was very strong but there was more time with no effective internet access than there was with internet. Normally we would assume that this effects an entire area equally, but we talked to others staying nearby who had much better internet access. Also our room had several water leaks in the wet bathroom (supply to the heater, sink, and possibly the toilet). A minor issue except that there was also an unpleasant odor in there. We engaged with many other guests, and none of them brought up an odor issue, so this may be isolated.
Very convenient to the trail for Valbona. For people leaving from here to go in that direction, the staff walked them up directly to the path through a closed gate. This saves a pretty uninteresting 1/2 kilometer, so is great. Breakfast is huge, and all the food and drinks that we had in a day and half stay was of good quality and value. Our room would have slept 4 and the bathroom was spacious. A very nice view from the property. Close to the market.

United StatesThe guesthouse is at the top of a hill. If you plan to do any hiking, you’ll need to add an extra 15 minutes or so to the front and back end. (But the house is nestled at the edge of the village with great views so we felt like it was worth it). There was also a problem with the electricity that meant the lights were out for 20-30 minutes. But this is not the fault of the guesthouse. The electric power in the valley is not so reliable. The family immediately tried to help when we told them our power was out and it soon came back on.
The beds here were so comfy! This was an unexpected treat to us. The staff and family were all very friendly and helpful. They keep the guesthouse impressively clean and smelling so good. The grounds are lovely if you want to spend time there. Also, the food at the restaurant is fantastic. We were also very very pleased with the complimentary breakfast. Our stay was so great and we would’ve stayed another night if we could!
