Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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...).

BelgiumAll was good. Best place in Crete so far, in my experience.
Nice and clean room, confortable bed. Super good onsite restaurant with a beautiful ocean-front terrace, with excellent food and wine and very attentive service. Very nice and helpful hosts/owners. Great location, very nice views, also from the room.

The room was simple but it was very clean, good air conditioning, and the view was great. 10/10 would recommend staying here!

RomaniaNothing really, all was nice and friendly :)
We loved staying at Faragi! The room was very clean and the beds are comfy. The owners are wonderful people and they spoiled our daughter and us with their local produce and hospitality. I recommend trying the Dakos and their fish which is fresh. We were there for 4 nights and hope to return soon! If you are coming from Samaria gorge, this is the place to stay for the night and enjoy a quiet evening after the boats have left. Nectariu and Ioana (she is Romanian) will take good care of you!

RomaniaNothing to dislike
Possibly the only truly family tavern in Agia Roumeli. The best part - they got rooms! I enjoyed a delicious meal, and a sensory experience that I dreamed of for years. The silence and calmness of the evening complemented the aromas of the fresh dishes, served near the beach, at one of their few tables, the view from the room terrace. The attention and discretion of the restaurant owner, Mr. Nectarios, who offered me as a gift two small bottles - one with olive oil and one with brandy. Thank you very much!

GreeceThe only thing I would have liked is a bigger bathroom and softer pillows but one can’t have all I guess!
There was nothing I didnt’ like, let’s start with that. The owner, Nektarios, and his wife make you feel like family. That’s why it’s the second year I visit this place and already looking forward to next year. Room is plain but comfortable and has more than you need for a short or even longer stay. Personally I feel like home whenever I go. Nektarios is a trully genuine hospitable Cretan, always caring about his guests. That is rare in our days and greatly appreciated. Last year he helped me get my car key that came by courier to Sfakia from Athens just in time so as not to miss the ferry back. Wouldn’t have made it without him. The mere fact that this morning, before I checked out, he was really disheartened by a bad review that came from a guest that cancelled his reservation while the gorge was closed, wasn’t charged, but still gave a bad review without even visiting the place, shows how much he cares about his business and his good name. Thank you for everything!

GermanyThe host is extremely kind and helpful, always there to answer requests. He's also taking care of the restaurant and each time he was checking if we're satisfied. The location is very good, just 1-2 minutes from the ferry and from the beach. The apartment was clean, well-equipped even with a hairdryer and tampoons.

United KingdomI have no major complaints about this hotel. The only thing I could say is that the bathroom was a bit tricky to use on a nighttime due to a big step - but that's hardly a complaint worth making!
I booked this last minute after a day of hiking to reach Agia Roumeli. We had intended to camp but decided that a room would be a nice upgrade. I had no trouble booking and when we arrived we were warmly greeted and shown to a nice room. Nektarios the owner is a very nice man and the rest of his staff were good too. I'd happily stay here again in the future.

We spent here one night after Samaria gorge trekking, and we dinned in the same place. The room was really comfortable, the staff and the owner were extremely kind! They have a really good choice of traditional greek dishes as well as fresh fishes from their fishing boat. Very recommend for the location too! Agia Roumeli is almost completely car free, at night you can fall asleep surrounded by the sound of the sea.
