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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

RomaniaI had a truly wonderful stay at this apartment in Padova! Everything was absolutely perfect — the place was spotless, spacious, and beautifully arranged. Located right in the center, it was ideal for exploring the city and enjoying everything Padova has to offer. The apartment had everything I needed and more. The host was incredibly kind, helpful, and made me feel completely at home. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended!

CroatiaWould have been nice to meet our host but this did not ruin our stay. I/we have stayed in numerous properties in Europe this year and have always met the owner. Obviously circumstances did not permit this.
The location could not have been any better. Our host was always available and helped when we could not get into the property(our fault). Situation was sorted quickly and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

BrazilStrong smell from the bathroom, which is common in historical buildings close to the river. Fortunately, there are nice perfume diffusers, so, not really an issue, just a heads up.
This is my fourth time staying at the Contemporary Design Loft and Apartment, and it become my favourite place in Padova. What strikes me mostly is how quiet it is, and how well I sleep every night. Secondly, the location is perfect, in the most beautiful street in Padova, next door to market, restaurants, shops, and a little walk to the Basilica. It's three minutes' walk from the tram stop, and from there, five minutes to the train station. And the area is very safe for a solo female traveller. The apartments have everything I have ever needed, the Wi-Fi is good, the heating is cosy, the coffee machine is a necessity. Check-in and out in uncomplicated, and Elena is a kind, accommodating and helpful host.

Cozy little apartment, nicely equipped with everything you need. Right in the centre of historic Padova. Easy walking distance to Prato de Valle, Torre dell'Orologio and so many other sights. There are many cafe bars and restaurants close by and lots of shopping. There's even a small world grocery store right next door. Easy to locate and easy to access the apartment. It's in a quiet courtyard so you don't hear the street sounds.

The place is located in the heart of Padova. Perfect central location with easy access to the tram line and lots of great restaurants and shops. The property is very well equipped with everything that you might need during your stay. Even if the place is in the central, you don't have to worry about the noise as it is back facing and super quiet. I highlighy recommend this property for couples and families too. The host is very responsive and with a friendly communication style.

South AfricaPadua was a huge success in our trip and largely due to Elena, the owner and her personal attention, meeting us, letting us leave our luggage earlier and the recommendations that she gave. The newly renovated apartment, in an old building, right in the heart of the old town, had everything we could hope for. We arrived by train and took the tram right in front of the station, for about 4 stops to Livio, meters from our destination - easy! The stairs are very nifty - just hang on! We will do it again.
