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.).

United KingdomWe would have liked tea/coffee making facilities in the room.
The location was great. It was away from the main overly touristy area but very close to everything. We especially liked the old building.

IrelandThis is a very nice place to spend a few nights just about 15-minute walk from the Ponte Vecchio, the medieval bridge over the Arno River which makes it an excellent base for exploring the city. It is wheelchair accessible and the room we stayed in was equally accessible with a good walk-in shower and great air conditioning. The staff are very friendly and although our booking did not include breakfast there are lots of place for breakfast close by.

I had a very good stay. Room was decent size, functional with a comfortable bed. Very clean. Amazing building with nice atmosphere. Lovely staff. Very good value for money. There are a many lovely places to eat nearby. I would stay again.

AlbaniaThe only thing I would like to be different was the bed, since it was not that steady.
Staying at Firesteria Valdese di Firenze was one of the best decisions we made. I was not expecting it to be that good. The staf is so kind and helpfull. The room had all the necessary facilities and was quite clean. The location was perfect since we had the possibility to access each of our destinations easily for quite few minutes. Really appreaciate the opporunity of leaving our luggages in a locker for no extra payment.

CanadaWhile I fully appreciate the modest and affordable accommodation, a small coffee maker with a real mug would be an inexpensive and very welcome addition. The Casa Valdesi does not offer restaurant service, so in-room coffee and tea should be considered. I was able to borrow a kettle from the front desk and drank instant coffee from paper cups they kindly provided. Otherwise, my stay was very good!
Warm welcome, kind staff, comfortable bed, clean room and overall facility, great location.
