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...).

United KingdomNothing - perfect as it is.
We loved every thing about Villa Lydia. The location is perfect for a trip away to relax. It’s close enough to Vathy that you can walk for an evening out but far enough away to be nice and quiet. Faye took very good care of us with wonderful breakfasts and kept the apartment spotless. The view from the balcony is amazing!! And finally, the massive comfy bed was perfect. It really is big!

United KingdomWhat an amazing view from our own private balcony over the harbour - perfect for delicious breakfast and pre dinner drinks. Spotless and clean throughout. Our host, Fotini, was so friendly and helpful with suggestions of where to eat and beaches to visit. And the breakfasts each day - wow! Fotini even sourced gluten free food for my wife. We stayed in a room called Fay, which was on the ground floor. There is a lovely small swimming pool, which we used only once as we prefer swimming in the sea.

IrelandThere was nothing we didn’t like. The steep incline was worth every step.
The property commands a spectacular view of Vathi bay. It is beautifully kept. Fay is an exceptionally attentive host. We had the most scrumptious breakfasts brought to our room every morning.

GermanyVilla Lydia was the highlight of our holidays. It is a lovely room overlooking the port of Vathy (5min walking up the hill) and every detail is well thought-through (quiet fridge, quiet AC, comfy bed, towels for the beach, nice shower, cute decoration, gorgeous balcony with magnificent view). The owner Fay is exceptional, one can really see that she loves her job. She made us great breakfast every day, provided us with a lot of tips for restaurants, told us a bit about the island and made us feel like at home. We can only recommend this place and would love to come back soon!

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike!
Our wonderful host Fay was absolutely amazing. So kind and thoughtful. She collected us from the ferry in her little green car and could not do enough for us during our stay but also with a good balance of privacy. The studio apartment exceeded our expectations. Fantastic views, perfectly designed and everything thought of, toiletries environmentally friendly, welcome wine and the bed linen and towels were of beautiful quality. Our host offered cleaning every day, if required. Great location and a 5-minute stroll to the pretty harbour, full of great restaurants and little shops. Our host asked every day what we would like for our breakfast and it was exceptional! The breakfast was brought to the room every morning at the requested time. There were extras, like freshly made pastries, jams and juice made from the fruit in her garden. Nothing was too much trouble! A wonderful experience and we will DEFINATELY be returning. We did not want to leave!
