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.).

CanadaI have mobility issues,. The site was has an elevator which I asked for but there are additional 10 or so winding steps to get to 4th flr penthouse suite. 2nd flr has no steps issue. Luckily I was able to manage steps but very slowly. It isn’t wheelchair accessible or if you can’t do stairs at all, Also lighting in hallways is dim, I didn’t see the 2 steps going down to the elevator The staff was amazing!
Exceptionally clean, old world charm with latest amenities . Giant soaker jacuzzi tub, loveliest soft linen sheets, it was all so perfect!

United StatesThere was no parking space available when we arrived and the parking is not free. It was not clearly stated on the website . Hotel sorted everything out in the end , that was the only small problem that we had .
My husband and I stayed in Locanda dello Spuntino for 3 nights while traveling around Castelli Romani . It is very nice, family run , authentic hotel located in the residential area of Grottaferrata. We had a room on the 3rd floor overlooking the park. Even though the room was facing the street, the shutters provided good isolation and it was very quiet. The room is a good size for Italy with wooden beams and hardwood floors. Large bathroom with beautiful mosaic shower. I have to mention the bedding which is luxurious. Crisp linen sheets, fluffy pillows, truly wonderful. It was a great place to relax after wandering around the area. Breakfast was plentiful and very tasty. Cappuccino, fresh orange juice , pastries , local ham and cheeses, eggs prepared to order in a hotel restaurant that serves great pastas and other authentic Roman specialities in the evening. We would love to stay in this hotel again.

United KingdomWe loved our stay at Locanda dello Spuntino this week. The restaurant has an incredible interior, straight out of a Caravaggio painting and the staff were all so lovely and helpful. It’s a non touristy town so it feels very genuine and it’s great to be in the centre and able to walk everywhere. Only 20 mins from Ciampino airport. It was very rainy when we were there so we only saw the amazing castle as we left. We’ll definitely be back.

AustraliaWonderful service and staff. The first time we experienced the owners restaurant 45 years ago and keep coming back. The hotel and the restaurant are both worth experiencing. The help with our luggage and parking our cars made it a breeze to check in. They were so helpful and obliging. The best experience in Rome.

United KingdomI was in room 302, and there was a very loud humming noise that I could hear constantly when in the room. I can only assume it was an air-conditioning unit somewhere close by, as it was very loud if I went out onto the balcony. Really spoiled the experience for me, and meant I didn't sleep too well the night before a big presentation!
The restaurant is beautiful, and has an incredible amount of character. The staff were all extremely helpful and accommodating during our stay

AustraliaEverything was perfect.
Locando dello Spuntino is a wonderful place to stay. We were travelling back North from Sicily and were looking for a hotel outside of Rome to stay the night before continuing our journey. We loved every bit of our stay with them and would have liked to stay more days. It is a beautifully restored building and every room is different and lovingly furnished. The bed was super comfortable. The bathroom beautifully tiled, clean, spacious and very special Aqua di Parma toiletries to luxuriate in the wonderful shower with. The room looked out onto a quiet side street onto a park. Satff was very welcoming and helpful. Parking was easy, a paid parking is just across the street. We ate a delicious meal with wonderful wine in their tavern and the included breakfast was very good. We stayed in a lot of special places during our time in Italy, but this hotel and area stole our hearts and we will be back for sure.
