How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The pavement from Metro to the Hotel is narrow and difficult to move luggage over it. True for all hotels in this area. The bathroom needs TLC, some plumbing fixtures are already broken but usable. Keep bathroom door closed so the AC works effectively.
Location of the hotel being walkable to the Metro is very convenient. There are eating options nearby and at the Metro. Marko was very helpful and gave the exact information that will help you use the metro effectively.

hopefully there was nothing I didn`t like.
The place is amazing. Super close to the train station, so go walking at any time, with or without luggage... extremely important! Then owner was very friendly. He greeted us, gave us an explanation of the hotel, and then took a map and began giving us plenty of tips on what we could do and where to go. It was a truly spectacular welcome, as I was staying for three days with my two children and wanted to explore Rome as much as the stifling summer weather allowed. Then the room was super big, with a small fridge, a table, space to put the luggage and big comfortable beds. Also the bathroom was new, spectacular. Everything super clean. I highly recommend this place!

Not a true criticism, but the charming lift in the hotel was a smaller one. Three adults (me, my partner, and the hotel receptionist) and our hand-luggage fit snugly. Keep this in mind if you have bigger bags or a bigger group. The stairs are perfectly fine, of course!
The staff's communication and recommendations were excellent. It was our first time in Rome, so we were given a map and shown both routes for getting to the best tourist attractions for a first visit. Coincidentally, we were also in Rome during the Pope Francis' funeral, so were given great recommendations for how to participate and how to avoid disappointment if an area was closed off -- they even messaged me on WhatsApp ahead of time to let us know about things. Staff were friendly and professional throughout. The hotel itself was very clean with daily room cleaning. I also appreciated that there was a privacy 'lock' where even staff wouldn't be able to enter with a keycard if activated. The ceiling in our room was very high, which was cool, and there was plenty of space for us to put our belongings around. We liked the kettle, thick light-blocking curtains, and the hotel's efforts to recycle plastic responsibly (there was a separate bin labelled for plastics). The bed was comfortable and clean. The hotel hallways were also very quiet, which was great. We felt very relaxed in our room. The location of the hotel was decent. It was short walk to Roma Termini station (the major train station in Rome) from which we took many metro trains and buses... and of course, was also home to the cross-country trains that took us to the airport and other major Italian cities.
