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.).

Casa Provenza gave us an amazing stay in Catania. The position is perfect close to the city centre and just a few minutes walking from the main attractions. Catania is undoubtely a place to visit in Sicily. Alex and Antonella were perfect hosts. Communication perfect. Availability 100% and very nice and professional people! The room was large and very calm with a direct door on the balcony for the breakfast. The breakfast on the terrace was amazing, calm and with very good and abundant food! Cleanless and services 10/10. We will surely come back to Casa Provenza in the next trip to Catania!

BelgiumThat was an amazing stay! Antonella and Alex went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable: personal check-in, advice on restaurant and excursions, can opener, anti-mosquito fumigator sticks, call a taxi... you name it! It looks like for them this B&B isn't a side business, but the business! So one could definitely expect personal touch. I also would like to mention that the photos of the property are 100% real! The room and public places are perfectly clean. And the view from the terrace is even better that you could imagine based on the photos. Just a tip: put few beers in a mini-fridge in your room and after a long and tiring day of sight-seeing you could enjoy a nice apero on the terrace overseeing Duomo (to the left) or Etna (to the right) before going for a dinner to one of the nice neighboring restaurants! Location is very central: a few minutes from a famous fish market, key sights and the stop of all the excursion buses (to Etna, Taormina, etc.) which is very convenient! Highly recommended!

NetherlandsThe terrace has a great view on both the Badia di Sant'Agata and the mount Etna, but the real stars of this B&B are the owners Alex and Antonella. They really make you feel welcome and for me this is the difference between a good B&B and a great B&B. I would recommend this place to anybody who wants to visit Catania.

NetherlandsReally nothing to complain (for the very first time to me).
Alex & Antonella are really really welcoming you like an old friend. They are very friendly and thinking about you while your staying. The breakfast is a personal customisation, which is a surprise with a full new experience to me. The location of the place is convenient to the busy areas and also to the bus station. You have a nice view and also a quiet neighbourhood.

BulgariaThank you for the pleasant and peaceful stay you provided us. The kindest hosts were have ever met. An extremely warm welcome, full assistance with information on how to get from the airport to them. Friendly and complete information about nearby places to visit. Many thanks for the places you recommended to us. Also the room was very clean and tidy, good noise insulation. And the breakfast in the morning - very tasty and huge. The Italian coffee was great as was the cappuccino, better than the coffees in town. The location - in the ideal center, close to everything, but calm from noise and crowds. From the bottom of our hearts, we wish you a lot of health, happiness, love and success in the new year! Sunny greetings from Bulgaria! Kristina and Kristiyan

AustraliaThe sound proofing isn’t 100%. You can hear other guests coming in at night sometimes, but I could hear someone’s phone beeping loudly all night one night, which was very annoying (not the owners’ fault).
The location was excellent, a street back from traffic and busy piazzas so there was no street noise. It was immaculately clean, cared for and decorated. It was close to everything and an easy walk to the bus station for buses heading south. It was a little further to the train station and buses heading north, but still ok. It was lovely to have a good breakfast on the open terrace. The hosts were excellent and very helpful and did everything to make my stay comfortable and to make my stay in Catania enjoyable.

The accommodation is family run. Antonella and Alex were very devoted and attentive to me. Wonderful breakfast on the terrace at the time I indicated. I have been to many places in the world, but I have never met such professional service! Only the best can really be said. What is important is that all attractions can be reached within a few minutes' walk. I can only recommend it if you are in Catania. Dear Antonella and Alex! Thanks again! See you again soon!

We had the exceptional pleasure of being hosted by Antonella and Alex. Every day we were taken care of as if we were visiting our old close friends. Thank you very much, guys, for being so hospitable and special thanks for the romantic evening that you helped us arrange. :) My 100% recommendation to everyone who is planning a trip to Catania to choose this place. The apartments are located in the very center among all the main attractions. At the same time (which is always critical for us) the room was incredibly quiet, which allowed us to get enough sleep every day. The cleanliness also deserves special praise, as does the wonderful breakfast. I hope that one day we will have the opportunity to come back here!
