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.).

Verified reviewWe booked this hotel for 2 nights and then 5 nights at marble rooms, which is their second hotel. We got an upgrade. Perfect service
Nothing actually except the matrasses were a bit too hard but I have a bad back so that could be me.

Verified reviewGood location outside the ZTL with some parking options (on the street or guarded parking nearby). The city centre is easily accessible by bike (bike lanes). Room not like in the picture, but clean and with comfortable beds. Nice and spacious bathroom. Safe place (apartment, not the streets around).
Misunderstanding and confusion about the address by check-in (there was no one at the reception half an hour before closing time; the contact was waiting with keys, but didn't tell us in advance that the apartment has another direction, it was a short walk away). I would not recommend parking on the street (attempted car brake-in in only 30 minutes, not so bad, the car was empty, only broken window, but not great for the next drive... welcome in Rome... the remaining time was the car in payed garage; I just asked about the parking before, but the hotel did not answer. The second answer was about gluten free option for breakfast. No answer again. The breakfast is in a non-stop bar nearby (juice, coffee, one cornetto...gluten-free for an extra fee in the bar). It's not worth it. I didnť find the "garden view", but it doesn't matter.

Verified reviewVery good location, very close to bus stations with access to city center, 10 minutes from Metro Rooms were good, nicely equipped with all necessary equipment Breakfast relatively basic, but OK for this price. The only thing is that you need to wait for refill quite long in case there are more guests at the same time

Verified reviewThe room was clean enough and the bed comfortable.
Our room was totally different than the one presented in the photos! Worst thing is when I went to the check-in desk (also nothing to do with the photos), the one who was working that day said that it's only one room like in the photos and it's taken already. When I asked him why aren't they uploading precise photos of each room he gave a silly reply that they can't upload photos of each room. Very bad presentation. PS. We booked at *Heart of Rome Rooms* and got a room in *Love of Rome Rooms*, which are in the same building.

Verified reviewBreakfast was included in the tariff. Receptionist and waiter at restaurant were very polite and kind and supported us with all our requests. Receptionist explained the complete map to reach various attractions. Air conditioning at the room was helpful due to soaring temperature outside. Hotel is situated 2 Km from Vatican. Hence went by walk.
Private car parking is not available. Free car parking is available below the hotel but I felt not safe, Hence parked car in private garage and they charged 20 Euros / night. Bathroom did not have lock. Outside the room there was cigarette smell everywhere.

Verified reviewStayed as a group of 4 friends. Location for rooms was close to a metro stop so easy access to the rest of Rome. Room was lovely with really comfy beds and large bathroom. Host was very helpful as we were delayed getting into Rome and she stayed late so we could still check in. Breakfast was very good for the price lots of pastries and fruit. Would highly recommend.
Nothing all was very good.

Verified reviewThe location was pretty accessible by bus and close to subway (15 min walking distance). There are a few restaurants in the neighborhood, so it was easy to eat at night closer to the property. The room was equiped with a separate bed for our daughter, which made it convenient.
We had a late checkin (9.30 PM, for which we needed to pay extra) and although we were informed to let them know with 30 min before arriving, so they can be there (which we did), we had to wait for more than 15 min for someone to come and give us the key.

Verified reviewI liked that it was close to the transit and most of the staff were very kind and helpful.
There were a few misleading items listed under their facilities. The rooms were not soundproof! This couldn't be further from the truth. I could hear people talking in the next room and out in the sitting area and sometimes well after 11pm. Not to mention the street noise. I used earplugs and it helped a bit. They offer a shuttle service at an additional charge. Well when I asked for the service, the girl told me they only offer it to and from the airport. They also have laundry listed, but when I asked, they gave me directions to the laundromat or they could make the arrangements with an additional charge. WTF! This is one of the reasons I picked this place to stay! So, I do go to the laundromat, I put my own clothes in the wash, use my own soap, they throw the items from the wash to the dryer and once dry I leave. That place charged me 15 euros for what, exactly? There was also black mold on the ceiling in my bathroom and the paint is ripping off the wall and ceiling. Will not be recommending this place, especially for the cost!
