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 are 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 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):
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.
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.).

AustraliaA little far from supermarket, when on foot. Carrying water up the hill was hard work. But most people would hire a car.
Everything. Awesome host, location, views. Staying in a windmill is so unique and really cool. Super stylish and comfortable. The out building with kitchen, dining and main bathroom is beautiful too. Loads of outdoor areas to sit and enjoy the sunset and views. Central location - we are big walkers and walked everywhere - Plaka, Adamos, the amazing beaches. Daily housekeeping and Maria's generous provisions and home baked goodies. Lots of restaurants in walking distance.

AustraliaThe windmill is traditional, but with all the modern touches to give you a comfortable stay. The 360 degree views over Milos are amazing, and you feel a world away in you own private oasis. Maria keeps the place well stocked with everything you need, and even has some homemade treats waiting for you when you arrive. After a day of exploring, we couldn’t wait to get back to our windmill, which can be seen from many locations on the island.

United KingdomSpotlessly clean, excellent beds and linens. Kitchen was well equipped. The location is wonderful, very quiet yet walkable to restaurants and Plaka. The view from the terrace is gorgeous. Maria is very friendly and kind - bringing lovely cakes and allowing us late check out for evening ferry. Would highly recommend and excellent value for money. 10/10.

GreeceOnly one of the two rooms had air conditioning. The bed on the first floor was small for two people.
Location is stunning with a 360 degree overview of the sea. Host was very kind, left cake and cookies (both self made), beers, wine and water.

GreeceThe hospitality was amazing. The hostess mrs Maria made twice during our stay homemade cakes and cookies. Another morning we found fresh cherry tomatoes from their garden. The location was amazing. Panoramic 360o view. Beautiful traditional details in decoration. The kitchen was our favorite meeting point to share and cook with our daughters. Thank you for everything. We are looking forward to come back.

Everything about this place was perfect. The windmill has veen converted into a modern luxury house but it remains cute and full of charm. The view is spectacular, you can see most of the island because the windmill is located on a high point on a ridge. We loved staying here.

United StatesThe bedroom on the top floor had AC. The other room had a fan. It was a little warm but not unbearable. No surprise, it does get windy here! People also drive down here for the view, but the property is fenced so feels secure.
Maria’s property is so unique! We loved it. She provided such nice hospitality - homemade tart and jams, wine, coffee and bottled water. Big bathroom was lovely with spa slippers. We did not have a car but taxis worked fine to get into town and we walked locally to restaurants, catacombs and archaeology museum. The outdoor space is amazing.

FranceMaria is a wonderful guest and her windmill is gorgeous... Fully equipped although providing an old style atmosphere that brings you back ages... Ideally located in Tripiti, quiet and close to major Milos spots (rent a car on Milos!). Maria welcomed us with wine and home-made pastries, together with her smiling face! One of our best-off in Cyclades. We'll come back for sure...

RomaniaThere was nothing not to like.
Great location, stunning views, lovely refurbished windmill with all the necessary facilities and amenities, nice terrace... Drougas has everything you might need and more. The place is beautiful and quiet, very close to the capital Plaka. The owner and Mrs. Maria are very responsive and will do anything to make your stay as pleasant as possible (including lovely homemade desserts and jams and a well stocked fridge). Myself, my sister and nephews (8 and 12) have been very happy here and we would love to come back.
