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.).

This was a perfect place since it was for one night and we were close to airport. The room was a nice size for 3 star Nice trattoria across the street

MaltaI have never stayed in a room with no wardrobes before. There was a rail 10 feet from the floor and a pole supplied to supposedly manoever clothes down. which was impossible. We paid for the de luxe double but the toilet was so close to the sink unit my husband could only pee by sitting down. The breakfast table kept running out of items but could only use the toaster as an alternative if we waited ages and had to use a fork to get the bread out. Had to repeatedly ask for cutlery to be brought. Also had to pay 3 euros each to use a pool towel for a hotel which uses its pool as a selling point.
Staff were quite friendly. Room was cleaned daily and sheets and towels were changed every 3 days. The pool area was very nice and the hotel was set in pretty grounds.

United KingdomThe area is a little run down. But the inside of the hotel is nice. The outside could do with being repainted. When we first arrived we thought we’d made a big mistake because of how the hotel looks from the outside. But when you go inside it’s very homely. The beds are fairly firm. But not unbearable.
The rooms were a decent size. It’s not a very large hotel. Quite warm atmosphere. Near to the beach. Literally across the road. You can see the sea if you get the right room. The grounds have little gardens and there are plants around. Staff were pleasant.

FranceThe staff during breakfast were too busy and didn't have much time for clients, but they were nice enough once you asked them for something. They were very busy with a wedding, so I guess they were a bit overloaded.
The pool was a great bonus and the kids loved it! The Polish receptionist was super helpful and Serena, the Argentinian lady at the bar was also very friendly! :))

United StatesOther than the beach, there is almost nothing within walking distance of the hotel.
The hotel is near the Catania Airport, which was our reason for choosing it, as we had to catch an early flight. The desk staff were very helpful in scheduling a taxi for us. We really enjoyed being able to sit outside our room to relax, and the beach was only a short walk away.

United KingdomAccess to the car park was extremely tight for the 8 seater van we had hired. The general external appearance of the hotel looked rather tired, needing some tlc. The water in the pool was a little chilly - we were there in mid September though.
Both rooms were rather small for 3 single beds but the en-suite shower rooms were generous in size and appeared to have been recently updated. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. The Lido across the road had an excellent restaurant that we ate in each evening looking out over the large private beach. There were a generous number of sun beds and umbrella and the sand lovely and clean. A good selection of food was available at breakfast including omlettes cooked to order.

United StatesBed was very firm and uncomfortable in my opinion, but I am used to beds on the US, I'm not sure how this compares to normal here. Shower was very small, had to open the door to wash my feet as I couldn't bend over within it's space.
Friendly staff, very helpful with finding the location after Uber dropped me off wrong. The property seemed very nice, I didn't try the breakfast or bar, I wish I had. The pool area looked beautiful. I'd like to stay here again but with a different room.

United KingdomIt was more complicated and more expensive than I thought to get a cab into Catania city center in the evening. Try Uber before engaging with Radio Taxi and other services. Other than that all good and very close to the airport. In the morning we were at Fontanarossa in less than 10 minutes and there are several petrol stations on the way if you need to fill your rental car.
We stayed for one night before flying back home from Catania. The stay exceeded my expectations based on some bad reviews I read before. Staff was nice and helpful and the pool is lovely. We did not try the beach but we're offered free access and lounges. Our room was in the first building in front of the reception and was large comfortable and clean.
