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.).

United KingdomAs above. Strange choice to give bathroom the better view. Nothing could be done to change this now.
We arrived a little early (20 mins or so) and were immediately greeted by Elena who was fantastic and spoke excellent English and we discussed dietary requirements of my partner who suffers from celiac. We talked about food options for breakfast and dinner. Normally they do not cook for lunch but made an exception for me and I had a very delicious beef and cottage cheese with peppers. The staff were all super friendly and accommodating. The only thing stopping me from increasing rating from a 9 to a 10 would be the lack of view from the room. Oddly the bedroom faced inwards with the bathroom having the better view.

United KingdomNot really a bad thing but just be aware that the hotel is about 30 mins hike (not a leisurely walk!) or 5 min drive outside the Theth itself- the location is good for the Theth to Valbona hike but adds on quite a lot of extra time for the Blue Eye/Waterfall hike.
Everything about the hotel is great, we really enjoyed our time here. The 3 daughters help with English translation and are very sweet and make it extra fun. Food is very nice with a couple vegetarian options. Rooms are very comfortable and cosy! Hotel was easy to find and lots of parking space.

United KingdomIt would be nice if there were more vegetarian options in the dinner menu.
We spent two night at this guesthouse in Teth and we had an amazing time. The rooms are very comfortable and the views are beautiful. The three girls, daughters of the owner, were very lovely and helpful. They even showed us their secret spot with great mountain views. The breakfast was also really good, there was a wide variety of traditional food. The guesthouse is not located in the centre of Teth, but there is an improvised footpath/trail that takes you there. Would definitely stay here again.

United KingdomThe owner was very helpful and accommodating, lovely man. The room is very clean and comfortable with heating that’s great for the cold months. It’s a short walk from the village and due to bad winter weather the owner actually drove us, which was every kind! There is a good restaurant on site with friendly staff. Wish I could have stayed for longer! Theth was My favourite place in Albania, I loved it and will be returning :)

PolandGreat place with great host and great food. If you are looking for a nice place to stay in Theth you definitely should book this lovely appartment. We were really tired after few days of hiking and sleeping in the mountains in a tent. On our way back to this lovely place,the Host was waiting for us to pick us up and drop off quickly to his place. We could warm up faster and finally eat something. The Host was very helpful. He even booked a shuttle to our next location. And the breakfast...Best ever!!! This place is a MUST on your way!!

CanadaThe beds were a little firm for our tastes, but I think they are normal compared to other places we've stayed in Albania. A sign at the start of the driveway would be nice, as the road isn't listed on google maps and is a little hard to spot.
We had a wonderful stay at Gjoni's! Our host was very kind and hospitable and made our stay very comfortable. We especially enjoyed the breakfasts each morning with an incredible view of the mountains and the valley below. The facilities are new and very clean.

GermanyYou need definitely a car for this location, it’s quite some distance of you want to explore the town and other restaurants. Also if you want to hike - please consider that it’s roughly a 30min walk upwards from the town.
Best breakfast that we had in Albania! Really kind and helpful owner, felt comfortable - even though it was really cold they provided us a second blanket right away. The view is amazing (Theth valley and mountains).
