Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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...).

EstoniaNothing, everything was good
Everything was very nice, very big apartment and terrace. Very close to beach and center of town also about 20-30min walk away, a lot of restaurants near the apartment. Very nice and friendly turtles on the balcony, when you talk to them they come to you.

United KingdomEverything was absolutely perfect. Really comfortable place with a beautiful terrace and two living areas, plus dining room and well stocked kitchen. It was raining a lot when we first arrived so we comfortably settled into the naturally lit living area and played cards all evening. Was a perfect spot to just feel a bit at home and relax when it was really needed a week into the trip. Of course the tortoises were a bit of fun too. Close to the coast, lots of affordable restaurants nearby and only 20 mins from the cute old town. Also street parking was plentiful which was fab as parking around Albania has been quite the challenge. Very responsive hosts also. We will absolutely stay here again if we come back to Vlore!

SpainMaybe that it is not located in a vey appealing location but we were aware of that and we knew that we needed a car to go to the interesting spots.
I think that the realtion between cost and quality was very accurate, the rooms were comfortable, and the flat was very big including the terrace to have breakfast and have dinner. Also the communication with the owner was very flexible with the meeting time and providing trip suggestions.

RomaniaA bit of attention needs to be given to some fixtures around the house (a few loose things that could use tightening or fixing), but this in no way affected the overall positive experience. Parking is a bit touch-and-go because it is free, but public, so you might need to hunt for a spot around the building if you're by car.
Very large and spatious, with a lot of personality in the decorations and amenities. It has an amazingly cozy and intimate living room, three generous bedrooms and an enormous outdoor terrace on the building, offering an unforgettable panorama of the city and its wonderful sunsets. The two turtles living on the terrace are a joy to watch and interact with.

NetherlandsThis appartment was the perfect getaway to spend a week in Vlöre. In our case, we were doing a diving course, so in between dives, this has been the perfect place to do our homework, to relax or to watch TV. For us, the fact that the appartment was heavily decorated, was a big plus! It didn't feel very sterile, but very personal. I fell in love with the two tortoises on the terrace: they are actually quite nosy and sociable, and they seem to like it when you sit on the terrace and they just move about a bit (or maybe I'm just projecting because I want it to be). The terrace is very big as well and offers a nice view. Next to the tap in the kitchen is an extra tap with filtered water. This was a huge plus, because buying and throwing away plastic bottles everyday feels like a huge (environmental) waste. Communication was always quick and kind. We were allowed to have a late checkout, which was perfect. The whole appartment was spotless too, very clean! Thank you for our stay!

United KingdomEverything is perfectly equipped, comfortable beds, incredibly clean linen, towels. The only thing that can be noted is that there is an unpleasant smell from the sewage in the apartment, so if you suffer from a sensitive nose, this may be a problem. But it does not affect my rating.
Unbelievable, 11 out of 10. Everything as in the photo but better! This is the best stay in Albania and before that we changed 5 different apartments. The host is super polite, checked us in quickly and allowed us to stay longer because our car was delayed for an hour. Definitely recommend to everyone!

GermanyWe stayed there with 6 people, so one bathroom would not be the most comfortable for a longer stay. As we only stayed one night, it was fine though. It was also not so convenient that there was only one key and the elevator does not work without the key. We had a bit of difficulty finding the apartment. It would have been helpful to know what the entrance looks like and on which floor the apartment is beforehand. For some reason the contract number was a German one that we could not reach.
The apartment has a very good size with even two living rooms. The balcony is amazing. To our surprise there were even turtles on the balcony.

UkraineNoise from the road and barking dogs outside the house. (But it is not possible to change this). More pans and small cooking pots could be added to the kitchen.
Great flat is suitable for a large family. A very good host. Always helpful and helpful. The flat is in a location where everything is close by and within walking distance. Very comfortable mattresses and good bedding. Three turtles on the terrace entertained the child and he ran home to feed them. It is very convenient that the flat has two cookers and you can cook on the terrace.

RussiaIt is a fantastic place. Located in the very center place of city you will have access to lots of restaurants, shops and everything. From terrace and one of the rooms you will have the sea view. Terrace is huge, so you might enjoy your evenings with the sunsets. I stayed there for a week, and internet was crucial for me. Guys have two routers in different parts of apt to ensure the good connection everywhere. Boiler is automatic, so you will not have problems with the hot water. Beds and pillows are comfortable, no issues here. Since i am a digital nomad i am always in travelling mode, i might ensure you that you will not regret that you stayed here.
