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 reviewWe came to Chiavenna and immediately fell in love with this little town and the apartment. The apartment is located in the center of the town, everything is reachable within minutes. Our host Giovanni met us when we arrived and was incredibly kind and helpful. The kitchen was perfectly equipped - we love to cook our own meals - and we even had a washing machine. The apartment was very clean, friendly designed, and quite spacious. One of the highlights is the breakfast which was delivered fresh every morning. We will definitely come back to this place.

Verified reviewThe location is very close to everything and Giovanni the owner was incredibly friendly and brought us breakfast every morning. The apartment is perfect for one or two people only but has a lovely balcony and the bed was the most comfortable bed that I have ever experienced outside of my own bedroom. I highly recommend other to book this apartment

Verified reviewExcellent room and host was brilliant. Helped carry my heavy luggage up several flights of stairs. Great location in centre of Chiavenna. Great breakfast with fresh bread and croissants delivered each morning.
Nothing for me but stairs might be a problem if you are less mobile

Verified reviewThe location is only 3 minutes on foot from the train/bus station. Even though it is very central, our room was quiet. There is all you need in the room, including a well enough equipped kitchen, so you can cook your own meals if you're so inclined. Fresh bread for breakfast is brought right to your door every morning. The host is very welcoming. Everything was clean and in good working condition. A supermarket is on the way to the station. Various shops can be found right after you step out of the door. Several restaurants nearby. (If you want something basic but good to eat at a good price and maybe a drink to go with it, I recommend Ristorante Caffè Dolzino, just one minute away. Or if you like to try some gin's, ALL RIGHT at the roundabout has a good selection, about 4 minutes on foot.)
It would be nice to have one brighter light in the living room if you want to read at night.

Verified reviewI like the location of the property. It is near to the shops and also walking distance to the train station. The apartment is cozy and very quiet. Owner is also very accommodating.
It doesn’t have a lift and air conditioning but it is not actually needed in that place.

Verified reviewIt was a beautiful little apartment in the car free historic part of Chiavenna. All the basic ingredients for cooking like olive oil, vinegar, salt etc were already there in high quality. All ingredients for the breakfast were there and fresh croissants and a roll delivered each morning. The interior design was beautiful and living in an historic building that is centuries old was a very special experience. The host was warmhearted and friendly.
