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 reviewThe room was perfect : big, clean, quiet, comfortable, nicely decorated. The staff was so nice and helpful. The whole place was so peaceful and nice. Our best hotel in Bulgaria so far. The restaurant is very good too.
The breakfast is very good but you do not have a choice. Everyday it changes but you cannot choose.

Verified reviewIn general, I like this hotel a lot. I like the traditional style and the home-y vibe. The food is absolutely fabulous. Prices are really okay for what you get. The most magical thing about the spot is the location - there's something about it that is so charming and calming! They have really cute dogs and meadow where you can play with them or your friends and the sports balls they have. You can also go horse riding, walking to the nearby village, go to the cave, or take a 4x4 jeep tour which is highly recommended and worth it. I don't know why it has only one star when it feels quite authentic and nice and the food is 10/10 - perhaps because it's smaller and they have limited rooms.
It's no secret that the mountains in Bulgaria can get really cold at night, even in June. Understandably, there was no central heating. But the room was quite cold at night and when I asked for a heater, I was mocked and told off that it's "June and I should have prepared". What put me off was the reaction of the owner. If I'm cold, I'm cold - no matter the month. They told me they didn't have small heaters for the room which they probably should have and they also shouldn't have reacted with such a mocking tone if the comfort of their guest is their priority. It's still a great place and I would come back but from the perspective of a guest, if I say something is making me uncomfortable it shouldn't be questioned or mocked... whether they can resolve it or not is a different topic. So perhaps bring your own small heater unless you are coming in August. They do have solid blankets though so in the end it was fine - it was just the reaction...

Verified reviewGreat location in the Trigrad river valley, a few minutes drive to the magnificent gorge. The view of the surrounding hills is all about tranquility and connection with nature. The owners are very courteous and welcoming and strive to provide best possible service. The staff would cook tasty local traditional meals. We would gladly return again.

We stayed there in the beginning of Sep, there was no heating in the room and it got really cold during the night.

Verified reviewI would never return in this property! The host was very friendly, however everything else terrible. The rooms are in lovely old style, the only new bit was the bathroom- complete disaster. You literally can’t have a shower without flooding the small space around that includes a toilet too. The food was very poor quality and rather expensive for the standard. I will not even waste time to comment breakfast. Definitely not recommend this place
Luckily we spent only one night!

Verified reviewThe hotel has a very authentic Bulgarian vibe. The room was spacious and beautiful, clean and well kept. The food in the hotel’s restaurant was outstanding. The views around the hotel are really breathtaking.
The shower and toilet need to be better planed, the whole room gets wet with every shower. The owners are new, I wish them luck.
