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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

Everything was absolutely lovely, it felt like a wedding venue that is how pretty it is. We loved the location, in the middle of the vineyards and with a beautiful view. You can reach Siena and Florence easily within 20-30 minutes by car. There is enough to do in the area such as wine tasting, restaurants, but just chilling by the pool for a day is also lovely. Nothing in the area is walking distance so a car is mandatory but there are great restaurants within 5-10 minutes. The hosts are so amazing as well with great tips for the area and parking. The room was cleaned daily and we even received cookies, new coffee and tea everyday and bread and toaster are also provided. We could not have wished for a better place. Although we are people who keep to themselves, we enjoyed the chats as well. We stayed the second week of September and it did rain quite a lot (unlucky!!) and was a bit chilly sometimes but we still enjoyed the room and the nearby cities a lot.

KosovoI can't think of anything that I didn't like.
"This is not a hotel, let me show you around and where you will be sleeping" - these were the words of the owner that sum up the best the experience we have ever had when traveling. Alba and her husband made us feel like we went at our grandparents. The rooms were cleaned daily and they always left stuff like homemade cake, fresh milk, water, tea, coffee and bread. The rooms are equiped with all the essentials plus a microwave, mocca machine and toaster. Its has a beautiful view and the pool is taken care with a lot of pride by the owners. The owner also played us piano when he saw us enjoying aperitivo in the garden. They made sure we had all the information we needed to make the most out of our honeymoon. The place is minutes away from most of the attractions and some of the most beautiful wineries. Thank you for the amazing experience and we can't wait to see you again.

NetherlandsI did not like that we had to leave after two weeks, back to our 'normal' & busy - working - life
It's all about location, location, location, cleaness and friendly staff. Our expectations were exceeded: Location is central to visit beautiful places in the area, the location itself is located on a excellent spot: quiet, superb view and easy to find. Last but not least the location itself is a beautiful house and we loved the room + the very nice & clean swimming pool. On top of that all staff members are very friendly. Especially Andrew & Alba are so friendly and helpful, it was amazing!

The location is great and the main attractions of the region are all within an hour distance. Great experience!

United KingdomNothing - we loved it all! But you do need a car when staying here.
The location is amazing - right in the heart of Tuscany Chianti region. Gorgeous farmhouse with incredible views, rooms that feel like home from home, and a pool for when you want to chill after exploring! Sonnie and Alba were amazing hosts - every recommendation they gave us was phenomenal! From wine tasting, to parking in Sienna to local restaurants - they can’t do enough for you and are such lovely people. Would definitely recommend this for a truly rustic Tuscan experience and would love to go back!
