Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

PolandEverything was great. We liked that our room was on the 2nd floor because we saw the sea from the balcony.
The host, Effi, is a charming lady. She met us and showed us everything. The service is very flexible. You can ask anything you need. We also ordered breakfast at the property and enjoyed our meal in the beautiful garden. The territory is very lovely and comfortable. The rooms are clean. The furniture is in good condition and has comfortable beds.

NorwayEffi Apartments was absolutely stunning. Super location directly on the beach - perfect for an early morning swim, beach day, and late night dip. The room is spacious with a little kitchen and a nice balcony to drink your morning coffee and dry your beach towels. There’s a nice outdoor area and garden that you can use which has a beautiful view of the ocean. Effi was a fantastic host - very accommodating, service-minded and kind. Overall, 12/10! Would definitely recommend to stay here if you’re going to Platanias.

The owner Effi and all her staff were so wonderful, the apartment was super clean, modern, and comfortable, and walking distance to everything - shops, restaurants, bars, grocery stores, the bus stop, etc. It was also right on the beach and had a beautiful little garden area to hang out in. Even though it was in the heart of Platanias, the apartment was in a peaceful, quiet street away from all the noise. I would recommend it to everyone!

SwedenThe host was super friendly and made an effort to ensure my arrival and stay was top notch, I arrived late on Tuesday night and she had prepared with a taxi pick up, water, and snacks in the room. She suggested places to visit and was always available through whatsapp if and when I needed to sound board with her - 10/10 stay! The area was calm, but still in the very center of Platanias, and had good agreements with some of the restaurants and bars in the surrounding area.
