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):
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.).

Everything was perfect! Maria is a wonderful host – very kind, responsive, and always available. We could leave our luggage on the first and last day, which was very convenient. The room is new, spotless and comfortable. The location is excellent: only 15 minutes to Santa Maria del Fiore, 5–7 minutes to Santa Croce, 2 minutes to the nearest supermarket, and surrounded by many restaurants. Thank you, Maria, for such a warm welcome!

United StatesNote about air conditioning: During our visit, Florence experienced unusually extreme heat, and the AC (located on the upper level) struggled to cool the entire space completely, making the nights somewhat warm. However, this shouldn’t deter anyone from booking, as the heat wave seemed exceptional, and I doubt any accommodation could have fully overcome such extreme temperatures.
This apartment was absolutely perfect! I wish I could pack it up and take it with me on all my European travels. For Americans accustomed to cramped European accommodations, this space was refreshingly spacious with plenty of room to spread out luggage and move around comfortably. The location is fantastic — just a 10-minute walk from the Piazza del Duomo. Marie Adele is an exceptional host who has thoughtfully designed every detail of this beautifully renovated space. The shower was particularly impressive, and her communication throughout our stay was excellent. She even accommodated our request for a slightly later checkout. I wholeheartedly recommend this accommodation in Florence — you absolutely won’t regret it!

NorwayOur host was very attentive and flexible, and had excellent recommendations for experiencing Firenze. Excellent location meant we walked every where we went for three days. Room looked newly refurbished, yet with a classic look and feel. Free coffee, tea, and space in a fridge was very welcome for a quick and good value breakfast or an aperitivo in the room in the evening. We didn't think we would have AC in the room, but did nonetheless, which was a huge bonus. Hope I get to come back to Firenze, and get to stay here again!

Marie made us feel so welcome and the small details such as early check in and remembering our birthdays made it special. She gave us great recommendations for the city. The room was comfortable and such a great size for a city room. The little kitchen area was great for a quick drink/snack. We would return in a heartbeat.

Marie Adele's hospitality was second to none. She goes out of her way to make her guests feel welcomed and cared for. Communication was excellent throughout the booking and on arrival. Fabulous room with lots of little extras, filtered water daily, milk, basket of treats on arrival. Her helpfulness and friendliness made our stay complete. Yes, there was some street noise at night but this is to be expected as people return for their evening out.

AustraliaThe bed was a bit low for me- I struggled to get up sometimes.. otherwise was fabulous. Yes was noisy on street on a Saturday night but that is not the properties issue. I think the streets carry noise. The host does leave ear plugs just in case. The Sunday and Monday nights we heard nothing.
Was very close to walk to all attractions. Room was lovely and big. Bathroom great size too. Host Marie Adele was fabulous. Her communication was great and response time great too. Local places around to eat and supermarket too.

We spent 7 days in Florence and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We would definitely recommend to others and stay again. The accommodation was authentically Italian, comfortable and very clean. It is located in a central location so was easy walking distance to all major attractions. The stand out for this property however is the exceptional host, Marie Adele - she is communicative, kind, extremely helpful and goes out of her way to ensure you have an enjoyable stay. She had awesome suggestions for places to eat (at affordable or discounted prices) and visit in the local area. Will be highly recommending thus place to others.
