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 StatesFor us it was perfect. However, if you dislike steep stairs and a small shower, it may not be for you if you have mobility issues.
The WiFi was excellent. My girlfriend had to work remotely while there and she had no issues with the WiFi, whether giving presentations or uploading/downloading files. It actually was faster than her Hotspot. The communication with the owner (Gianni) was outstanding. He responded immediately and his directions on where to park and how to find the place was spot on. He assisted us with reservations. He made a reservation for us at Cru Fish Bar and they treated us very very well. The home is very well done, comfortable, and had everything we needed (kitchen had stove top, oven, dish washer, washing machine). Amazing what he was able to fit in the kitchen. You can easily see the sea from the terrace. Short and Easy walk to old town, famous beach and restaurants. Parking was easy for us, as we opted for the free parking lot (about a 10 minute walk or you can get a tuk-tuk if you have luggage). There is street parking, but this can probably be difficult as Polignano is quite popular, even in September. The interior stone work was beautiful. My concern, before staying was the bed, but we found it to be comfortable and we slept well. It was very quiet inside and there didn't have any issues with street noise. It's called La Nicchia, but it had plenty of space for us. Very happy with our stay. I shopped around for different places, but I thought the price point was very reasonable when compared to other places.

It was a great place in an amazing location! We were close to all the best restaurants and the sea. We were ar a high season so the A/C was very much appreciated. The view from the terrace was great. You won’t regret getting up earlier! And it’s super clean, we appreciated it very much! And what’s more, the owner is soooo helpful! He recommended so many great places to us. And also, I left some clothes in the closet and the owner was very nice and managed to send it to my country, thank you so much!

United StatesIf you are a large person, it may be difficult to use the shower and bathroom because it is very small. If you have knee problems or small children, this may not be a good option because there are many steep stairs to enter the apartment, to access the loft bed, and to enjoy the kitchen and terrace.
I loved this apartment. The location is perfect. It is around the corner from a pedestrian street filled with bars and restaurants, one block to the sea, a few blocks to the main plaza, small grocery store, and a short walk to the train and a safe place to park a car. The apartment is very safe and quiet. The rooftop terrace is lovely with a view of the sea - a great spot to enjoy a book, do work, drink a glass of wine, practice yoga..... In the kitchen, coffee, tea, and sugar was provided as well as a biscuits. The apartment is a smart design and makes great use of space and is very nicely decorated. The double pained windows and solid shutters allow for a silent sleep and no light. Accessing the apartment was very easy and clear.

GreeceUnfortunately there was no full length mirror in the apartment, only a small mirror in the bathroom. Also the mezzanine was quite difficult to access and had no bedside lighting, just a mattress bed on the floor. There were not enough sockets for our phones, etc so the apartment would benefit from having some multi plug adaptors in each socket.
Wonderful apartment, in a quiet street very close to the main tourist area. I booked for the rooftop terrace which was a nice place to sit and have our coffee in the mornings. The apartment was beautifully decorated with a fully equipped kitchen and just about everything we needed.

The well restored old house is situated in the heart of the centre but away from its chaos. Clean and well accessorised the house is on two levels that can be reached with steep stone stairs. Very nice terrace outside the well equipped kitchen.

BulgariaThe property is in a typical puglian old stone house style. I really felt like home. Very clean and comfy. You have everything in hand - kitchen with all facilities, big terrace overlooking the streets below and a small window of seaview. Very good location not so far from the train station, street with bars/restaurants and the old town. Gianni gives me a lot of information about Polignano and answers all my extra questions - many thanks!Definitely recommend it!

AustraliaThe bed is a mattress on the floor (which didn’t bother us) but might be difficult for some people. Overall not much to fault!
The place is in a perfect location, walking distance to shops and restaurants and the famous beach 10 minute walk, but still quiet at night! The apartment is really lovely, classic sandstone townhouse, the air conditioning was great and amenities perfect for a few days. Gianni was a great host, we had some issues with construction noise next door for the first couple of days however Gianni was very accomodating and offered us a boat tour which was appreciated. I would definitely recommend to others.

AustraliaThe only thing was that the double bed is quite short (sofa bed was great though) and that the kitchen got quite warm while we were there, as the hot air traveled up to the second level. Air con worked perfectly though in the main bedroom/living room area.
The property was incredibly charming and is situated in the ideal location to explore Polignano a Mare. Gianni was superb with his communication from the very beginning, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. The terrace was also fabulous to utilise.

NetherlandsThe sofa was definitely not comfortable to sleep on for people over 180 cm tall. With the sofa unfolded, the wardrobes were difficult to access, forcing us to keep our clothes in suitcases on the ground. Due to the large amount of decorations, there was almost no space for our belongings. Last but not least, the toilet was not cleaned properly, and the niche for our toothbrushes was not cleaned at all. The same goes for the terrace - when opening the door, dried plants from the terrace entered the kitchen, which we had to clean periodically.
Good location with terrace and contactless check in/out. We had luck to make early check in.
