Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

CanadaMaybe being able to choose the room, staying there three nights, whereas most guests stay one or two nights, but I still enjoyed the (smallest) room. It is a bit like a five stars submarine... need to see it to understand. Grazie Mario & Bettina!
The owners are extremely caring about the guests (this is a couple). They have done that for years and still care. Breakfast is amazing, generous, and with many choices (and you don't have to choose !! can have it all...). There is a fantastic terrace overlooking the castle and the river. As far as the location, well, you cannot live the experience of a medieval village better than this. Trust me, eyes closed, go there, you will not regret. My room was a paramount of silence, but no view.

South AfricaWhat a lovely charming romantic BB. The room exceeded all expectations and was extremely comfortable. Our hostess was absolutely wonderful, kind and generous. We had a picnic lunch on a gorgeous rooftop garden with views of the castle and the river. Our breakfast was delicious, with a huge selection beautifully served. We just wished that we could have stayed here longer.

We really loved this place. The location is wonderful, in the beautiful old part of Dolceacqua. The apartment had a nice view on the old bridge. We couldn't reach it by car but there are plenty of car parking facilities nearby. The owners are really friendly and helpful. The breakfast is amazing! Bettina had something freshly baked each morning and the omelettes are just perfect. I would recommend everyone who goes to Dolceacqua to stay in this unique place.

It was located perfectly and the building is an amazing family property renovated and looked after by the hosts. The rooms are comfortable and have everything you need. The bathroom was big and cosy too. We were happy to spend the afternoons relaxing there as it was quite hot outside. We could use the terrace at anytime during the day and take advantage of the views. The breakfast was copious and it was lovely to chat with Bettina and Mario, the hosts.
