How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Verified reviewThat was our one of the most expensive rooms during the stays in Albania, but that was on purpose. Most of things met all our expectations. We had a room on the third floor. The room itself is a piece of art. Very modern and stylish. The bed is super comfortable. The balcony and the view - worth almost all money. Breakfast was tasty. The host is super friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place. It is further from the center and all noise, what was also a plus for us. Host recommended us restaurants near, so no need to go to touristic center. If you want to feel the real atmosphere of the place, be surrounded by mountains, watch the stars, this place is for you.
The only regret was that we had a most beautiful bath, but couldn't use it in the evening after hike. There was no hot water. That disappointed us a bit. But in the morning, we used it with pleasure. P.S. that is not a problem of hotel. Later we were explained that all Theth has problems with energy. Next night in all village there was no energy. So i agree that problem is not in hotel but generally in all village.

Verified reviewReally friendly host and staff. Very helpful whenever help was needed, such as arranging for a mule to collect luggage to carry over to Valbone whilst we hiked with day rucksacks. Breakfasts and dinner at the guesthouse was also amazing, loads of food, perfect before/after long hikes! And lastly Theth is just an amazing place amongst the mountains, lots of great hikes nearby including to the various waterfalls including the Blue Eye and Grunas.
There is a bath/hot-tub but the water didn't last long enough to fill up the tub with warm water. TV also didn't work.

Verified reviewEverything about Marashi is exceptional - it’s the perfect place to relax after hiking! So glad we stayed here for two nights - we wish we could have stayed longer! Our hostesses was so welcoming and friendly, the room was incredible - clean, breathtaking views, comfortable bed and hot shower with good pressure. Breakfast everyday was delicious, and we are so happy we had dinner here too because wow! We were treated to a range of traditional, home cooked dishes for only 15 EUR. 10/10, cannot recommend this place enough.

Verified reviewWe had an amazing stay at Guesthouse Marashi. The family that runs this place is so kind and you can tell they truly care about their guests. I will dream of the traditional fried dough breakfast dish, it’s SO GOOD. Coffee was also excellent which we appreciate.
Nothing.

Verified reviewWe were made to feel very welcome Violetta and her husband are so sweet, she did some washing for me hung it out and folded it up 🙏🏻 no ask was too big, they went out of their way to make you feel comfortable and are very kind people. We had dinner there one evening there was so much food, traditional Albanian. The breakfast was really good too yummy Albanian doughnuts to set you up for those hikes. Great location for the blue eye hike. Away from the town centre 15 min walk along the river so nice and quiet.
Everything was great

Verified reviewBeutiful place next to mountainriver(though the river was pretty dry at july). People were very nice and friendly. On breakfast hornets really annoyed us, but hotel staff tried to help with smoke which helped a little, thanks for that! 🫡
Demolishion worksite next to our appartment wasn't that nice 😏

Verified reviewThe location is great, a nice view over the river and into the mountains from the balcony. The owners were very kind. The evening meal was nice, with many different dishes (I'm not sure how much it would change night by night, so we had one meal here and one elsewhere). The breakfast was ample (and changed slightly over the two mornings).
The size of the room is smaller than expected (we utilised the balcony for space). It is a little way from the 'centre' of Theth, which is okay as there is a basic grocery place nearer (and doesn't just make up its own tourist tax like the one in the centre). This is okay, except for the Albanian tradition of watering the road, makes for puddles and such, so you can't go to the centre too dressed up.
