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 KingdomThe apartment was excellent, but the bedroom where our children slept didn’t have curtains to darken the room so they were up very early. The wifi connection was also quite poor unless we were standing by our front door.
Location was excellent (an easy walk into central Florence, even for our children aged 9-5!) and the host gave us some great recommendations for local trattorias and coffee spots off the tourist trail.

United KingdomMaybe more frequent room service to refresh the sheets,. bathroom etc. although this isn't an advertised feature it would have been nice. The kettle had the smallest power cord I've ever seen which wasn't detachable which was weird. Not much not to like. Highly recommended
Lovely mini residences in a very walkable distance to the centre. Mauro greeted us and gave us a map with lots of recommendations which were helpful. The room was large and comfortable with a nice private bathroom. Lovely tall ceilings and large window letting in the beautiful Florentine light. Very walkable to the centre or easy to get to on the bus (11/12/36/37 - get off at Porta Romana or Piazza Calza which are just over the road) Great coffee shops next door or over the road at Porta Romana. Easy walk down a single road into the Pitti Palace and Old Bridge (5-10m). Bus to the Piazza Michaelangelo for the sunset just outside the door (number 12).

Czech RepublicThe appartment is directly at Porta Romana, several buses stop around. Unfortunately our experience was not good, buses were not on time, or there were several deviations....Google maps do not work in this regard .... So we walked. It takes minimum 20 mins by walk to the Ponte Vecchio. It is a straight street Via Romana.
Spacious appartment with one living room (bed and double bad) with a kitchenette. One separate bedroom (2 single beds). Mauro, the host, waited for us upon our arrival. He was available on WhatsApp all the time and replied quickly to every question or enquiry. He gave as a map and recommended several spots. Very close you find Pizza Romana-highly recommend to visit and try pizzas. They also deliver. Caffeteria very close, almost next door. As well as bakery. Carrefour express grocery shop 4 mins walking distance.

CanadaThe matrass is very comfortable but the bed frame is quite noisy. I believe because it's a metal one and maybe a good decision will be to rub or spray the parts.
Location is good, just by the bus stop. You do not need to use public transportation to go around, everything is a walkable distance, but for someone who needs a ride, there are plenty of buses/streetcars. The Host Mauro is a great person, met us personally, provided all the instructions, answered questions, gave us the guideness and draw the routes on a map. He was easily accessible via WhatsApp if any questions. The room has everything you need for a few days stay.

New ZealandThough on a busy street, there was no street noise. However, work underway on a construction site opposite made for a loud, early start to the day... this is a problem for all of the residents in the building and there is little they can do about it. There are a number of families close by in the building who live loud and open lives ... well into the night. You couldn't call it a quiet place. The bathroom was 'quirky'. Very small, especially the shower, and unusually for accommodation in ita, no bidet. But it was functional.
Very convenient location at Porta Romana, away from the madding crowds floodthe piazzas of Firenze but an easy walk to the centre and all the main attractions. Mauro was very helpful and immediately responsive to all requests for supplies, advice and information. The terrace and balcony provided a lovely spot for an apperitivo at the end of the day.
