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.).

AustraliaRooms got hot and stuffy with no air flow even with open windows. Thank god for air conditioning. Stairs were steep after a long stay. Windows looked into area with junk.
Perfect location. Very comfortable layout and bed and couch. Good wifi and tv kitchen was small but great. A few stairs but on first level. Easy access. Good communication with host virtual only. Check in fine. All facilities work very stylish inside and nice stay overall. Shower and bathroom great. Would recommend.

RomaniaThe apartment has no natural light, only a few from a space between the buildings and this is a little bit uncomfortable. Also it smells like mold, but this is usual for this kind of buildings. Overall, it was a very nice stay.
The location was great, right in the center, the apartment was nice and very big, the bed was extremely comfortable and the sheets were very clean! The location is right in a market with a lot of restaurants..a Conad supermarket is nearby. All in one, you feel the vibe of the city in this place.

AustraliaThe staff were not overly warm or helpful and I saw a couple of comments that also said this. For us it was a contrast to some of the other stays we have had in Italy. it is hard to get a taxi or Uber! definitely not anything to do with the property but just in terms of location, when we stayed we really struggled for almost an hour to get a ride to the train station so just be sure to allow plenty of time. the taxi contact number the host of the apartment gave us was not reachable and we finally managed to hail a taxi. the good news is getting to the property from the station there are plenty of taxis.
the apartment looks identical to the photos and had plenty of room, the location is perfect as it right in the heart of Florence. Plenty of restaurants and bars on your doorstep and only 20 minutes walk to the Firenze station/ short drive.

IndiaThe apartment is poorly lit and has thin walls (not recommended for light sleepers). There was one store room that was locked (but not disclosed earlier). There were a lot of mosquitos in the room too and it would've been great if the host provided a mosquito repellant and some water bottles.
The apartment was comfortable with good amenities (very comfortable bed) and it was larger than what we expected based on the pictures. The location of the apartment is fantastic with most places being walkable. There is a taxi stand located nearby as well.

BulgariaThere wasn’t any soap in the bathroom and the apartment was veeery noisy in the bedroom. We could literally hear people doing everything even starting from chewing.
The best thing about the apartment was undoubtedly the location. In the heart of the city center, in front of Santa Croce. The apartment was very cozy with very comfortable bed and it was a good thing to have a shampoo dispenser in the bathroom, we have forgotten to buy and we were nicely surprised. The host let us leave our luggage in the apartmanet earlier before the check in which was pretty nice, so you can start enjoying the city without it.

Beautiful apartment in a perfect location to explore Florence. Check in was very straightforward with clear instructions from the host. Everything was clean and fresh. Kitchen was small but had everything you might need. Bathroom had shampoo/body wash provided, and a hairdryer. The bed was very comfortable and all linens were fresh and clean.

United KingdomThe Air conditioning in the bedroom could have been a bit better. The Air con would turn on and off periodically and not simply stay on for the duration needed. The bedroom would get quite hot.
The apartment was right in the heart of Florence and all the major sights and places of interest were in easy walking distance.

BelgiumThe apartment looks better in the photos - there was an ugly plastic cover on the table, and tens of old issues of Vogue Italia. The toilet flush did not work properly - I had a similar problem in other places in Florence, but still, I think it should be mentioned. There are hardly any windows in the flat - I suppose in summer it helps to keep the flat cool, but it made it rather gloomy when we were there.
The location is great - next to the Santa Croce church. It is a spacious, clean apartment. Heating (through an airconditioner) worked well. It was easy to get the keys.

ChinaThe host asks the guests to clean the kitchen, otherwise, a fee applies at check out. However, the kitchen was not as clean as expected, the cups were still dirty. I had to clean the cups and dishes before use. The bathroom has mold.
Nice location! Nice interior design of the apartment! I really liked the taste of the host. The host was really helpful with all the issues of the apartment. When I first arrived, neither the heating nor the air conditioning was working. On the second evening, the host sent a technician to fix the problems. It seems heating is a common problem in winter in Florence, but luckily the apartment has air conditioning.
