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 KingdomNothing, it was perfect. I only wish we’d booked for longer than 3 nights, we loved every minute.
Fantastic location, very near to all the sights we wished to see. The room was spacious, impeccably clean, of a very high quality and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

GuatemalaThe only thing that could be improved is sound proofing the next door shower as it’s very loud when the next door neighbors were using it.
Excellent location, clean and comfortable room. Complimentary coffee, tea and water. There is no reception but the cleaning staff is friendly and helped us to check in. I would stay here again.

AustraliaRooms are a bit small or ours was, my husband is quite tall though. Bathroom extremely small, Bit tricky to find.
Rooms are spotless, bed is super comfortable. We had a room with a view which overlooked a busy market street, you felt like you were part of the neighbourhood - window easily closed to filter noise. Excellent airconditioning. Reasonable size shower. Excellent hosts available till 7pm, 7 days a week. Nice central courtyard. The square where the accommodation is based is bustling with life and street entertainment, many eateries. Breakfast deal at a local restaurant is an excellent option - food was delicious in a beautiful dining room. Walking distance to many attractions.

FranceThe person in charge of the cleaning should perhaps be given some support during peak periods, as she has to do everything alone, and even with the best will in the world, time is not limitless.
The room, the patio, everything in this B&B is tastefully decorated. The view from our room over the incredible architecture of Florence made the moment even more special. The location is perfect for discovering the monuments of Florence on foot. We even walked all the way up to Piazzale Michelangelo. Even though it is right in the city center, we were not disturbed by any noise at night… in fact, was there even any noise at all?

AustraliaI wonder if the coffee and tea making facilities could be made available in each room rather than in the foyer . It’s a small suggestion but it was not a problem .
An oasis in the centre of a busy city. The room was spacious and beautifully appointed with Florentine architecture and inspiration. The staff were incredibly friendly and readily available. The bed was super comfortable and the bathroom modern and fresh. A hotel like experience without all the trappings.

United StatesNothing. We loved it and were very happy with our stay.
The location was excellent, close to everything you want to see in Florence, which is a very walkable city. The staff (Maria) was friendly and helpful. There are nice extra touches to make you feel comfortable such as filtered water and an included coffee/tea station. It was nicely decorated and clean, and great to have an elevator to help get the heavy luggage up the stairs. AC and a quiet building made it easy to get a good night's sleep.

CanadaNo kettle/coffee machine in room. when the day I left, I saw they were installing a water machine in the common area. Drinking water is extremely important during the hot days! Glad that they are providing purified water now.
The room is tastefully designed and decorated. Location is extremely convenience, I walked to all my destinations within 10 mins! And my son love the Repubblica plaza downstairs. I love the little terrace, where I enjoyed my coffee every morning. Also the cafes around the plaza are great especially the one right at the front door.

United StatesThe facility is on the 2nd floor and does not have a traditional 'reception desk' - so a little hard to find on the first day. The lovely cleaning staff greeted me. Administrators work from a separate location, but respond quickly to messages (e.g., WhatsApp) and will come by if needed. When I arrived, I had questions, and Sara came over immediately. She was very helpful.
The location was excellent. It is central and within quick walking distance to just about everything in Florence. The Duomo is only a couple blocks away in one direction and the Ponte Vecchio is a couple blocks away in the other direction. The administrators are responsive and the cleaning staff is lovely. When I went to Siena for the weekend, they kept my large bag for me until I returned on Monday.
