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.).

Location was the ideal walking distance from the centre, with a supermarket close by, an ATM, as well as a bakery less them 1 minute walk away. The room was comfortable, clean had access to kitchen facilities for when we opted not to eat out. Marco was so helpful and friendly, he was responsive to all our queries and gave some great recommendations for our trip.

DenmarkIt was a bit cold in November, but we used air conditioner to heat the room, so it was not a problem.
Marco is a great host, very friendly! All-in-all I liked the property. The ceiling was impressing! It is not far away from the city center, 20-30 minutes on foot. There are many good restaurants and cafes in the neighborhood, and there is a supermarket next to the apartment. You can use shared kitchen, there is a fridge and other kitchen equipment you may need. I liked the vibe of the apartment and the neighborhood. Of course, it is a budget room, so don’t expect too much. But the place had everything we needed. If you want to get a more local experience, I can recommend!

United KingdomThe only down side is we realised afterwards that there was no option to select a particular room. We ended up in a room that included a kitchenette and felt generally that the room could do with a bit of redecorating as it felt quite dated. However it’s great value for money and ultimately you pay for what you get!
The location is great as it’s not too far a walk from the tourist area of Florence (about 20 mins) but is on the doorstep of much more local bars and restaurants which had a great vibe. Marco was also a great host, very welcoming and friendly and full of recommendations for Florence!

CanadaWe loved our stay at B&B Porta San Frediano! The room was spacious and clean. Marco had set up a nice travel crib for our son too. Marco is so kind and has lots of great recommendations for restaurants nearby. When I needed to get an item of clothing stitched, he also recommended a great tailor. The location is excellent in a quiet area of Oltrarno - we are so glad we stayed on this side of the river, which has a more "local" vibe, but is still walking distance to all of the historical sites. There's a great cafe across the street where we had breakfast everyday. The B&B also has a shared kitchen and fridge for anyone who prefers to make some meals themselves. Highly recommend a stay here!

PortugalThe B&B is located in the heart of Florence in a lovely residential area but still close to major attractions like the Duomo and Uffizi Gallery (around 20 min walking). The room was very elegant with beautiful decorations (including an amazing hand-painted ceiling), clean and spacious. Our host Marco was super nice, providing a seamless check-in experience, offering us a map and pointing in them delicious trattorias, osterias and places to visit. Couldn't recommend it more!

SerbiaThe room was very spacious and equipped with everything we could want, even a kitchenette. The location was great, walking distance to all attractions but away from the crowds and among the locals. Marco was also very welcoming and gave us amazing tips! Also, ignore the negative comments on the breakfast - for us the breakfast at the bar across the street was a true Italian experience, the people there really kind and the croissants were the best we ever tried. After having two of those we were full for hours!

Location is amazing - don't stay the other side of the river, this side is much more local and quieter. Marco the host is a super-friendly guy and gives lots of tips and advice. Big bed. Some options for cooking with a little kitchen in the room.
