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.).

ChinaJust a tiny thing, the washbasin is a bit small~
Good location, no more than 10 minutes walking from the Florence S.M.N. Tram T2 is 3 minutes away. Simple decorated but looks fine, the bed is soft which my friends felt very satisfied. The host gave us a warm welcome and patiently showed everything for better stay. The building has a small, old but intersted lift, very helpful for tourists with big luggage.

Netherlandsthe room is so dim, i think the lights are too dim given a single small window for the entire space. it's also quite a maze from the entrance door to the room. the bidet also tends to leak, there was a night when our bathroom floor was flooded. it also does not spray enough water when the faucets in upper floors are turned on.
good location, very near the train station, city center and tram stations. it is also surrounded by good restaurants. the room is very spacious.

United StatesWe had a lot of outside noise which prevented us from opening the window at night and unfortunately it was very stuffy in our room. It was advertised as having AC but it did not work and the hotel staff explained it was government regulated in October. So sleeping was somewhat challenging.
This hotel is a good location and close to many main attractions. The beds were comfortable and the staff was nice. It’s good for a basic stay, no frills.

AustraliaMaybe include a small fridge in the room
The apartment is well situated with a short walk from the main Florence train station. There are a few cafes etc in the street nearby where we stopped for breakfast. An easy walk to the Cathedral and other main sights. On arrival, the host met us and helped with bags. Nice to have a lift so we weren't carrying bags up several flights of stairs. The building is very secure, a locked door to get in from the street, a locked door into the apartments on that level, then a final locked door into your own room. The room itself was a decent size, nothing fancy but quite comfortable. The beds and pillows were comfortable. Small but functional bathroom. No fridge. We noticed there wasn't a kettle or cups in the room but they provided one when we asked. All in all a nice budget option for Florence.
