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...).

United KingdomDon't follow the directions on website! It takes you up over the steepest hill and then get lost! I'll attach the easy way we found after. Wi-Fi dipped in and out, but was OK. Steep, curved stairs to penthouse. Difficult with heavy bags, but had offers of help. Check out was 10.30am, but felt rushed.
Spacious penthouse apartment, a short walk from the main Papadiamantis Street. We were a couple and a friend, so had a room and bathroom each, although would fit 4 each room. Modern decor and very clean. Balcony with street view in full sun during day. Mini Market and bakery around the corner. Quiet. Very helpful ladies. Maria helped with bags, cleaned, etc. Was able to leave luggage on last day, as had night flight.

Away from the noise and business of town but very walkable to the port. The owner had no knowledge of my booking but was still able to give me a room. Bathroom was good. Outside area was sheltered so cooler.

Italy-too much humidity in the room. Everything stays wet even our fresh clothes from luggage. Not good! -curtains don’t keep out the light so well -no soundproofing. You can hear the road noises and people passing by or in terraces -WiFi is terrible
-few minutes away from the crowd but few minutes from the city center -the staff is very friendly and helpful and speak so well English -

United KingdomIt wasn’t the host’s fault, but if you’re driving a car, parking can be very challenging, especially if you return late (after 8 pm). We struggled to find parking on most days. The streets in Skiathos Town are also quite narrow, so be cautious if you’re driving there. Again, while this isn’t the host’s fault, despite the apartment being on a quiet street, we had some noisy neighbours who returned around 1 am and were very loud. On one night, we even heard loud talking at 4 am from people in the apartment behind us.
The location is excellent, just a few minutes' walk to Skiathos Town and the port. The facilities were basic but comfortable, providing everything we needed for our stay. Our host, Alexandra, was very kind and helpful, always available when needed. The room was cleaned daily, which we appreciated. As a family of four, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the apartment.

United KingdomThere was not really anything I didn't like. I booked for a room early near to the centre of Skiathos Town and this is what I received. The clean towels were laid on the bed in a decorative manner and she let me put my bag in the room as soon as the other people left for her to clean round, thus allowing me to enjoy the beaches.
I wasn't on a breakfast package so cannot comment. The location was excellent, being a short walk to the bars in Skiathos Town. The lady on reception was friendly and efficient. The fridge was big, so I could put the food and drinks I purchased in there.

Czech RepublicThe room needed a little bit of general maintenance - the faucet was wobbly, chairs on the balcony too. One of the electric plugs (by the mirror) was not working. The shower corner needed a deepclean (mostly the drain) and we couldn’t really put the shower up, as the little holder attached to the wall of the shower was holding the hose just very loosely.
• Our host Alexandra was wonderful. She was very welcoming, polite and nice. She helped us by recommending the best beaches on the island and called us a taxi when we were leaving. Alexandra made sure we arrived home safely and communication with her was always very pleasant. • The hotel is located close (15min walk) to the beach, and only about 5min to the city center. Although the airport is also only about 15min from the accomodation, I recommend getting a taxi or a bus as there are very steep stairs and a hill and not a lot of sidewalks from that direction. • The room was cleaned daily - fresh towels, trash taken out. • AC and wifi were good. • There was a blowdrier in the room, which is a huge plus. • Cutlery and mugs were also clean.

GreeceWould have liked better/blackout curtains-there are no shutters and curtains are thin and let a LOT of light in (there is a street lamp directly outside the room I had). Made worse there being a window above the door at the street lamp level with no curtain at all No problem for the less light sensitive but this did affect my sleep a lot Kitchen could be better equipped-not a concern for me as I was staying only one night but for families who might want to self cater equipment seemed a bit limited
Location was very good-a 10 minute flat walk to the waterfront and port, and a few minutes from a minimarket yet on a quiet street -a few mopeds pass by every now and then but certainly not all night Alexandra on reception was very friendly and welcoming The room was large, very clean with a comfortable bed and pillows, very nice spacious and modern bathroom

Czech RepublicThe glass bathroom door does not reach the floor, doesn't have a lock, and overall is not very well suited for a bathroom door. In a room meant for 6 people, you would expect a bathroom with more privacy. The shower glass doesn't really stop the water from going everywhere, so the bathroom was always wet.
The room was very nice and modern. The room was clean. We had an entrance straight from the street, which was nice. The small patio was nice. The AC worked very well. The staff was very nice and helpful. They also let us leave our bags on reception after checking out until our plane was leaving.
