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 KingdomThere is nothing that i would wish to fault.
This is a very lovely little B & B in a beautiful spot with fabulous views. Even though the room was on the small side , it was completely clean, comfortable with the terrace just outside where we had breakfast overlooking the rolling hills. Excellent shower in the. bathroom too. And, the pool is really lovely-cool, refreshing -we had it to ourselves each morning. Simone does all he can to help you-he very kindly dropped us at the bus stop to return to Florence as we didnt have a car on this very short trip.

United KingdomI pretty much loved everything. But it’s difficult to travel to if you are using public transport, but the majority of people drive cars.
I loved how nice and remote it was. It was extremely rustic and nicely traditionally Italian. Although its self catering, the place is huge, and there is a lots of beautiful history and antiques. The Host and the family there was so nice as well. They made me feel so welcome and even give me a lift when I was stranded.

United KingdomB&B La Fonte is in a lovely area, 30-40 minutes or so drive from Florence. It's down a steepish road but perfectly manageable, except perhaps in snow! The whole area is hilly so one has to be prepared for this. Has lovely views (there is a motorway in the distant front but it's not particularly noticeable. Unfortunately we were only able to enjoy the lovely pool one day, due to the weather. The room was spacious if a bit dark, Macchiavelli room is the best I think. To make this a top destination, we all felt a few things would have made a big difference. A kettle and tea/ coffee in the room, or very easy access to this in a downstairs lounge, as we experienced elsewhere. There is a breakfast room and in theory access to drinks, and perhaps coffee/tea during the day, but the room was closed most of the time. An honesty bar and ability to sit downstairs in that room would have been nice, particularly when it was raining. It wasn't obvious how to easily get hold of Simone, although he was very pleasant when around. Breakfast was fine if not outstanding - omelette, bacon, bread, croissant and sweet yoghurt and fruit juice. I don't eat pork and would have preferred some cheese or plain, unsweetened yoghurt. We went to two restaurants nearby. One, Il Borgo Macchiavelli is the top of the road, is walkable (if you don't mind puffing a bit uphill), and takes about 5-7 minutes. Absolutely outstanding, whether you are vegetarian or a meat eater. Another, Simone recommended, was a short drive away, very different but also excellent. Bottom line, you are spoilt for good food! This place is great for good weather, a bit less so in bad, and could be improved very easily (suggestions above) but we enjoyed ourselves overall!

SloveniaI like everything but just an advice if you have a low car, it is a farms road down hill to the facility ( like 300 m) and you need to drive slow and careful. I come here 15 years each year for few days, so am use to it.
Very close to all cities like Florence, San Gimignano, Siena, Volterra, but in amazing peaceful vine area with great restaurant and vine tasting facility on top of the hill.
