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.).

IsraelI need to get real nitpicky because everything was so great but the breakfast could use a bit more diversity in the food. But it was still delicious!
we had such an amazing time there we were really sad we only stayed for one night. Mauricio is such a gracious person and a fantastic host who was ready to help with everything. The location is great (5 minutes away from the center square and 10 from the cathedral). The room is clean and everything is design in such a nice way.

The location was amazing and Maurizio went out of his way to send videos to ensure we made it safely as well as tons of recommendations. The homemade pastries were delicious and the fridge was stocked with plenty of snacks, including cheese and non- dairy creamer which I appreciated. This B&B was our favorite out of 4 places we stayed throughout our trip. The bed also was extremely comfortable! We went to a larger hotel in another city after this one and immediately regretted not staying at this B&B longer as it was the best stay!

NetherlandsThis was literally the best accommodation of my life. The room was spacious, so well decorated and with a super comfortable bed. The shower had led lights and don’t even get me started with my own private breakfast experience at the private balcony 😍 on top of all of that, the food available for breakfast was a delight (literally had the best carrot cake of my life). As if this alone wasn’t enough already, I became great friends with the BEST host I’ve ever met. Maurizio went above and beyond for me as his guests. He sent me so many videos, messages and audios via WhatsApp explaining in detail how and where to park my car, how to open the doors with his keys, how to use the coffee machine and many more. I’d like to stress out that all of these details are often things that aren’t necessarily and that hosts generally don’t do. Maurizio did so so much even though he trully didn’t have to! Showing his upmost commitment in making his guests feel comfortable and being available at any time. Just staying here for one night and meeting Maurizio was enough to make me want to return to Sienna, I completely and utterly felt at home away from home. If I could rate this place and 11/10 I would. Thank you once more my dearest friend Maurizio, may we meet again. ❤️

CanadaFirst of all, would like to compliment the host - Maurizio was incredible. My daughter said he was the nicest person in Italy =) He helped us so much, with the car, the bags and recommendations. The b&b is super cute and very well located. There was also some food in the fridge for us so all in all absolutely fantastic experience. Would love to stay there again and will recommend it to all my friends!
