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 KingdomIt’s a bit of a big drop from the road to the car park and then 2 lifts to get to the villa reception. It isn’t easy on foot or car. But it is an experience
It’s lovely and quirky

EstoniaInterior needs refreshing
This villa on Lake Como definitely needs a renovation, but its location on the first line offers an exceptional view. The waterfront terrace is perfect for relaxing. The lake water is refreshing. Parking is an interesting experience, but only for the adventurous. To reach the villa from the parking lot, you’ll need to take two elevators.

Fantastic location. Nice room. Great views of the lake. Able to walk along the shore to the pier to catch the boat. Breakfast ok. Small selection of (good) dishes at other times.

ItalyThings to keep in mind... While parking is free, the drive to and from the parking lot from the main road was a huge challenge for our large SUV. It was extremely scary how steep it was. There are 2 elevators to get to the hotel and a bit of a walk. Hotel: The AC was not as cold as we would've liked. We didn't mind opening the balcony door, but there was no screen, so we had to turn the AC on. The comfort level of the bed would be about 6-7. The indoor stairs was narrow and noisy when climbing. The place could look much nicer with some furniture upgrades and some decorations. Our towels and the bed sheet had large stains.
The hotel has its own dock, so people can swim right in front. It also has comfortable outdoor furniture to relax. We had the downstairs and upstairs to ourselves. The room #12 had a renovated bathroom downstairs. Free parking (more details to follow)

EstoniaLet's say that the rooms could be updated a little. Not that it really stands out, but it's a place that could be improved. It is possible that for some it is also a problem that the street, through which you can go to the city or some restaurants, is quite a lot higher, where you need to go with two elevators and a little stairs. There could perhaps be a small bar on site, or at least the possibility to buy some drinks and snacks at the reception. It must be taken into account that you have to get your own food and drink and take it with you. But luckily there is a kitchen with good equipment where you can cook your own food. It is true that there are also various places to eat not too far away.
The first thing we liked was that when we arrived at the car park, the hotel assistant Habib (I hope I remember his name correctly) was already waiting for us, who carried all our luggage to the hotel! Without his help, it would have taken us a lot of time, since the parking lot is quite a bit higher and you need to use two elevators to get to the hotel. So the biggest thanks to him! And then of course the views! This accommodation is located right on the shore of the lake. from where there are great views. Like in the movie! All rooms are double rooms with a balcony on the second floor. A small port, where you can take ships to neighboring towns, is a few hundred meters away. The staff was very friendly!

NetherlandsThe parking is hard to access, to clarify more, it’s challenging to exit the parking. It’s quite steep, and especially if there is some humidity or some wetness on the tarmac there is high chance that your car will find it difficult to get up.
People were great and the location is amazing, the view from the terrace is amazing. Breakfasts were fine, nothing spectacular. Got tired of the stairs:)

This hotel has incredible views of Lake Como and is right on the water. You get to eat breakfast on the terrace and can jump right into the water from the jetty. The beds were comfortable and everything was very clean. The staff were super friendly and helpful. They booked restaurants for us and even helped sort out a parking ticket!

United KingdomThe rooms and bathrooms need some attention and updating. There are 2 kayaks for guests but only one paddle. There is a SUP but no proper paddle. The parking is good but getting in and out can be very challenging as it is VERY steep! Some renovations and attention to detail would make this a wonderful property.
The location is fantastic with beautiful views over the lake. There is a jetty to swim from and a beautiful terrace over the water to sit, and also have breakfast. The staff were all very helpful and always ready to help.

United StatesThe rooms need much more updating unfortunately. There was a musty smell in both our rooms that we couldn't pinpoint. All in all, the rooms were just ok. Hopefully the owner can invest some more into the rooms themselves because with the location, the views and having a great staff like Deborah, this could be a real gem directly on Lake Como!
First off, the view from the property is amazing! Being right on Lake Como, it was just a wonderful, relaxing atmosphere around the property. There were plenty of community chairs and covered tables for us to lounge around on along with a dock with a couple kayaks and stand up paddle board for guests to use. Breakfast was provided on time and included a good variety of options. The staff was very attentive to set up place settings for you inside the main house, or outside on the lake. A small grocery store nearby made it easy for us to make a homemade charcutier board with a couple bottles of wine and enjoy the lake. The ferry is a quick 5 min walk along the water from the property. But the staff of the property and especially Deborah made the entire stay great! She was so helpful in showing us different local places to eat, making reservations and always being there when we needed her. The most amazing part was when we couldn't get a taxi service to take the 4 of us back to the train station with all our luggage, she took us in her car and her husband followed in his car with our luggage to get us there on time! Absolutely incredible! If you ever want to move to the States, you'll have job waiting for you lol!! Thank you so much Deborah!!!

IsraelIt's like the owners decided that it is enough to have a property at a good location and all the rest is not important. The family room has air conditioner only for the upper unit. The room smelled of mold. The bath and toilet were designed with no regards to convinience, no place to hang the towels or to put your shampoo.. The breakfast had limited variety, was poor and the amount wasn't sufficient for the amount of guests so that you couldn't have stuff that was consumed. And don't get me started with the disasterous parking lot. So scary and unsafe to get to. To short things up.. Find a better spot, there are plenty on that area. .
Only the location. On the como lake.
