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...).

ItalyThe only things that were inconveniences were the lack of consistent hot water. I will say that Iva was so quick to respond, and we did happen to arrive while they had technicians to replace the hot water heater specifically - so this would not be a problem for anyone else I'm sure. We did find some very unpleasant, and gross trash left from previous guests, we only found it when we were inspecting the rooms upon our departure. People must be respectful and responsible when going anywhere, and the family running Villa Iva is wonderful, so please treat them and their home with the upmost respect. ***PLEASE UPDATE*** This was not an issue for us thanks to Iva's recommended location (8 min walk, or 1 min drive- delicious!) but due to renovations, they are unable to provide breakfast at this time. Not sure when they are able to provide this service again.
The family running this beautiful stay was absolutely stunning. They have four generations staying on this homestead, and they are beyond kind, accommodating, and easy to talk to with so much rich, personal history. I wish we had more time to converse with them. The location was perfect, you really feel completely immersed in the nature, and true local life in the hills. It is peaceful , quiet, traditional, and all around amazing So close to everything you want to experience in the area. If you love nature, and truly appreciate and want to experience authentic life in the hills if Croatia, this is for you.

United Arab EmiratesTowels should be replaced. There is no Wifi or AC. Which is not a problem for us, (weather is cool at night) but it’s mentioned at booking so it should be clear when someone book this room
Our toddler loved to play and run around in the playground and the garden. Very convenient to visit the Plitvice lakes and the small town closeby has shops and restaurants. Bed is comfy, kitchen is ok. Good enough for a short stay.

Out in rural Croatia with a real honest family feel. Wish we could have stayed longer. Room was large & bed comfy. Good advice from our hosts when we needed it but gave us space to do our own thing as well. Breakfast was fresh with lots of local produce. Not far from gate one into Plitvice Lakes Park.
