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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

United StatesThe check in could have been smoother, but still was polite. We had to drop our bags in another location in a "locked" room (property was actually not locked, and while we were given keys, when we went back there was no one around and every door was unlocked). Once we got checked in everything was super smooth.
Location and views were amazing, and we were able to go to all the main attractions of Venice by foot alone. Being able to stop at the apartment for a rest between walks was great.

AustraliaThat there were lots of renovations and the entrance way was full of plaster bags and paint tins and wet paint. Very challenging to get to the room particularly for seniors as there is no elevator and no porterage so carrying bags up 50 stairs and then down 10 stairs was difficult.
The size of the facility was very good.

AustraliaSome effort was required to locate the place and the inter one at the house front was not working so I had to contact the host via WhatsApp. Some stairs up and down to the room so be prepared. Amenities very basic so don’t have high hopes.
It is a great place to stay if you are looking to get Venice home feel. The location is central and close to popular Rialto bridge. The host was very helpful.

ArmeniaIt was very difficult to find the location as there is no visible sign on the building. The host was in another building and we had to search for him for 30+ mins to find out about it. Would be better to send location pics and instructions beforehand. The room is modest and old fashioned but as shown in the photos.
The location is just 5 mins walk to the Rialto bridge, which is great, everything is close. From Piazzale Roma we reached the property walking 30 mins. We had free tea/coffee in our room.

United KingdomNo lift and only a set of very steep stairs, difficult with luggage. Air con unit not fitted into wall/room and is a portable unit which is very loud, we were unable to keep this on during the night so got very warm. Cleaners kept opening windows when we were out, came back to lots of mosquitos in our room each day resulting in lots of bites.
We liked the location of the property

United KingdomI guess the room was a little dated but very clean and comfortable. A very good bed and good pillows! Plenty of hot water and a good shower plus excellent location made up for the fact it was a little dated.
We were met by the owner and his son at the nearest pier and they took us to the guesthouse where they carried our bags to our room. They were friendly, welcoming and very helpful.
