How guest reviews work
Each 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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done 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 of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Verified reviewLocation was excellent - 5min walk into town and could also walk to the black lake [much better than short drive and crazy parking]. Apartment is a good layout and felt cool even in the August heat. Nice residential area. Host very helpful - do use their instructions not google to find it.
No real outside space - there's some outdoor furniture in the concrete yard where you park, but no view/reason to sit there. However - we did spend all day outside doing activities with amazing views! Apartment is abit dark [but that helped it to feel cool] and no views. Bedding, especially the mattresses felt cheap / not very comfortable. Kitchen very limited.

Verified reviewSuper clean, functional, comfy beds and a great location as easy walk to restaurants and supermarket. Parking available in gated area or outside.
No fault of the owners but there quite a few dogs in the area who like to bark all night. Take ear plugs if you might be impacted.

Verified reviewVilla Lara is in a fantastic location in short walking distance to the centre of Zabljak. The apartment was spacious for a family of four (kids aged 13 and 11), well equipped and exceptionally clean. There is a gated driveway to park your car. Stefan is a fabulous host who could not do enough to help including advice and organising excursions. I would definitely recommend staying at this apartment 😊

Verified reviewV well equipped, a top stay in Montenegro, clean and short walk to centre. Well informed as to directions and enough hanging places for towels, unusually for the country in our experience.
Not easy to park inside the gates but possible to park outside them, just in front of the property.

Verified reviewThis was an excellent appartment which had everything we needed for our stay. It was very cosy and homely with comfortable beds. The appartment was in a quiet neighbourhood but it was also close to shops and restaurants. The host’s communications were very impressive with instant responses to our queries. We wish we could have stayed longer than two nights but we will be back. Beautiful mountain scenery.

Verified reviewVery spacious, pleasant apartment with everything you need for a comfortable stay (including washing machine, iron, extra pillows etc.) Located in a quite neighborhood where nothing can disturb you from enjoying your holidays. Highly recommended!
A TV with Netflix in it could make the apartment even better. No complaints though.

Small mistakes of cleaning lady - she forgot some bed linen. We noticed just late in the evening, so missing linen was delivered just next morning.
