How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe view from the property is amazing and the owner Massimo welcomed us very warmly! Massimo also made sure we enjoyed our stay in his property and provided us with great suggestions whilst on Elba Island, to which we are very thankful. We got to enjoy the Jacuzzi too, which was lovely.
The only major issue was that the property was on the top of a steep hill, which proved a workout to walk up - but the hill then provides a beautiful view so it was definitely worth the climb. We also had to pay extra to use the jacuzzi, this was more down to the listing on booking.com not being clear as to which facilities were provided in our booking (everything was resolved when we arrived).

Verified reviewThe view from the property is really beautiful. The area feel very safe and calm, parking is much appreciated. Massimo is a great host, very helpful, friendly and nice. We book this place last minute and Massimo was very accommodating. BUT
I don't really know where to start. We booked the last room "garden room". 1. The patio in front of our room was use as garden storage, busy and messy ... 2. The room was not really nicely decorated and not space-optimized. The corridor leading to our private bathroom had two other closed doors. One of the door was actually glass with a white transparent curtain and we could see other people room! We saw their bed!!! 3. The third problem was the soundproofing ... one of guest had a dog who was barking late at night and early in the morning which woke us up. Overall, we were glad to ave found accommodation last minute, but it was way too expensive for what it is. We paid €140 for 1 night not included breakfast (€14 per person on top) Also, you ave to pay cas at the property or by PayPal. If you pay by PayPal the fees are on you. This place should not be more than half the price we paid for. I am surprise the place has so many good reviews and maybe we didn't have the full experience and best room as we booked last minute. Ps : We did not use the Jacuzzi and did not have breakfast, both looked nice.
