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 StatesWe had a wonderful stay at Nido dei Gufi with our host, Alice, going above and beyond. She made a special butterfly bed for our two year old and delighted us each morning with a delicious breakfast with local products and produce from the garden. There is a wonderful park across the way and the garden is beautiful. Lots of extra special touches, like a pay as you go fridge of local beer and wine and day trip suggestions, by our host. Thank you, Alice! You were our highlight :)

LatviaFrom the great location near the lakeside to the cozy apartment, every aspect of our stay was nothing short of perfect. One of the standout features of this place was its tranquil and quiet setting. Nestled close to the lake, it provided a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The surrounding area was picturesque, allowing us to enjoy the beauty of nature while still being conveniently located near local attractions and amenities. The apartment had everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. Each morning, we were treated to a simple but delicious breakfast. The presence of private car parking was an added convenience that we truly valued. The spacious and romantic yard was a delightful surprise. Lastly, I must highlight the exceptional hospitality we experienced from the host. They were incredibly friendly, warm, and kind. They went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction throughout our stay. I wholeheartedly recommend this place for families, especially those with small children.

ItalyA wedding in Toscolano Maderno gave me the opportunity to spend two days at the Owls' Nest ('Nido dei Gufi'). An amazing experience: aside from the comfort and cleanliness of the room, which went above and beyond all expectations, I was able to interact with two wonderful hosts. Five stars, would definitely recommend.
