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 reviewWhen you hike from Theth to Valbonë and with the intention to go to Çerem, this is the ideal place! Room with airco, very big and with a personal terrace. The staff is super friendly. We received homemade cake with our beer, and the dinner was amazing! They spoiled us with the typical Albanian dinner (call it banquet). Also the breakfast was superb. Pancakes, bread, vegetables, fruit,…. Everything you need to fuel your hike! A very nice experience, we fully recommend this hotel!
Dear Jonaape , Thanks a lot for your kind words! Hope to have you here again! Warm regards Mik Hotel Valbona!

Verified reviewIt was a nice area and the staff were super attentive and friendly. It felt a bit more like hostel, but not in a bad way. Only because of the spirit and liveliness/connecting and young staff and visitors. Super close to start the hike to Valbona pass and Theth.
It was a bit diffict to find. Google maps has the location in a different place, around 5 min car drive difference. Probably the location in google maps has been marked wrong, but we ended up getting live location shared by the host.
Dear Ergo , Thank you for your kind words, and we are working on fixing our location . Hope to get to welcome you again! Warm regards!

Verified reviewThe family rooms are good size but the kids had to climb a ladder in order to reach the upper part of the room ( like an attic). This made the parents uncomfortable spacially as it had no handrails. Also they had a problem with the water installations in one of the rooms so we were given a room without central heating but with an electric heater. On the other hand the receptionist (I think the name is Ida) was very friendly and kind and prepared for us a royal breakfast. We were grateful to her for her kindness.

Verified reviewLoved the cabin, well equipped and heating was great given the cold and first snow of the season! I finished the hike from Theth in the dark and Bes came to collect me, and he also took me to the ferry in the morning in the dark! He and Ida were both so helpful, thanks a lot! Packed lunch given the early departure was also brilliant.
Nothing - bathroom was a bit cold compared to rest of the chalet but didn’t really impact my stay.
Thanks you for taking time to give us a feedback! We’re more than happy that you enjoyed your stay with us!

Verified reviewComfortable, clean, & quiet after a long day of hiking from Theth! Staff was friendly and helpful. The restaurant was closed for dinner, but there were other guest houses just down the road to eat at. Would stay again.
Radiator in our room didn’t seem to be working, so it got a bit chilly, but there were plenty of blankets available to make it a comfortable stay.
