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.).

ItalyThe only downside: arriving by car. The apt is in a street not reachable by car, and some of the quartier is ZTL (so you cannot enter with the car if you're not a local). Finding a place to park revealed hard. And the indications given by the hosts could have been more informative.
The place is OK, it's comfortable. The room is spacious, the bathroom is huge. We encountered all we needed for a 2-day stay. I enjoyed the little balcony. IMHO the strongest point about Belle Arti is the location, very near the center, still very quiet, and we felt safe (contrary to other time we stayed in Palermo, we go once in a while since we moved to Sicily 3 years ago). You're inside the Capo quartier, so Mercato del Capo is a stone's throw away.

LithuaniaThe built in speakers in the ceiling meant neighbours blasting music late at night which is fine if you're traveling for leisure or wanna party yourself. However, if you are having a workcation, it is somewhat less than ideal. Mind you, wifi is also quite weak therefore not ideal for work.
The place is well located, easy to access the city and main touristic spots. Apartment itself is well furnished, clean, cozy.

CanadaI wish the AC worked better. The seal to the shower has already been addressed by previous person. It’s an easy fix but for some reason still not addressed. That being said, tilt the shower head away from the door and problem solved. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.
I absolutely loved my one week stay at this property. It was very clean and up to date furnishings. It had high ceilings and very bright. Lots of plug outlets. The bathroom was quite big. The shower was hot and excellent water pressure. The room had a little balcony that overlooked the street which was great! It was about 5 minutes walk to Cathedral and main strip. It’s also on a quiet narrow street right in the middle of the locals which made the experience even more enjoyable. Lots of small corner stores and restaurants close by. Accessing the apartment was very well orchestrated by the host. The host was always available and replied to any inquiries immediately. I did not cook, but the kitchen seems adequately equipped for light cooking. I would definitely stay at this location again.

United KingdomNot too drastic- some channels on TV had connection problems. Couldn't watch Supertennis.tv channel...
The location is great, 5 minutes walk to the Cathedral and historic quarter, yet not a noisy street. Modern décor and furnishings. Clean. Kitchen, oven and fridge. Coffee, sugar provided. Little balcony with chair. My request for an extra blanket was swiftly dealt with. Communication via WhatsApp was good. Panificio and mini markets round the corner. Cafés, gelaterie, restaurants, shops, places of interest 5 - 10 minute walk.

AzerbaijanThe apartment is located in the zone with limited traffic and very narrow streets. It is not allowed to drive there without special permission. Even if you have the permission, you cannot drive to the entrance of the building at least to offload your luggage from the car. Free street parking is possible on a street that is 2 streets away; however, finding a parking there is very difficult. In the afternoon there were no spots available at all- in the evening we hardly found one spot. Stairs going up to the apartment are narrow and very steep (see pic). It is hard to go up with the luggage. If I knew all these details, I would definitely pay more and book other place. This apartment is good for young people without car and with light luggage. The shower cabin was another disappointment. The sewage was almost clogged. When taking shower the water would stay and overflow from the shower cabin. The cabin is small and no place to put shampoo. You have to bend in tight cabin and put it on the floor that is full of water. There is no shower handle, only shower from the top. No iron in the apartment (to iron a t-shirt quickly) - irons are so cheap nowadays, I am surprised it is such a big deal to put one into the apartment.
The apartment was spacious and clean. There was a descent kitchen. The location is next to the main Cathedral (which is amazing) and 10 minutes walk to the main street with lots of restaurants and historical monuments.

ItalyThe district is a bit abandoned with many houses in ruins. Is the sad part of the beauty of Palermo
The apartment is quite tiny but well organized. Less than five minute by step from a market and other stores. The position is really near to the Cathedral so you can visit all without use a bus or a car. The host was great to solve small problems (my fault to be honest).
