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 reviewTo me, the best thing about this accommodation is the attached terrace with wonderful views. Location is very peaceful. Hosts were very friendly and gave us lots of tips for trips which was very helpful. On one evening, the hostess even brought us a plate of cooked meal to try and we have received a small bottle of local white wine. Air condition was working perfectly. Room is nice and cosy.
Personally, I found the bed a bit small and not very comfortable as with every slight movement the whole mattress moves.. But we could sleep well, so it was ok in the end.. Breakfast is not what is displayed in pictures here. It basically consists of boiled eggs, pancakes and all kinds of white flour pizza-like breads, not so nutritious and it is exactly the same every day (we stayed 5 days). When we asked for some variation, perhaps more like what is shown on pictures on this property page, we were served a wonderful english breakfast but were asked to pay extra 5 EU / person. It was fine, but a bit unexpected and the hosts did not seem to be very happy about this request. Other guests might not care too much about the breakfast, but for us a nutritious breakfast is an important start into the day.
thanks a lot, concerning english breakfast, if you read carefully Is extra and normal price Is 10 euro , with five euro you can not even buy products (ham, bacon, sausage, eggs and vegetables) so It was 5€ as gift for you ,our standard breakfast Is very appreciate by our guests , breakfast is not a lunch ! Besides this we offered you a Exotic dinner , wine and extra coffee FREE OF CHARGE !! Next time i suggest you do not book a B&B but a 5 star Resort Hotel but of course the price It Will be quite different !

Verified reviewThe owners are very kind and are happy to answer any small questions you may have, as well as recommending local attractions. The room was spacious enough, and the private bath had plenty of space. The terrace overlooked the city, and we would have been able to enjoy the view if the weather had been a little better and warmer. (We were there in late March, when the weather was bad.) The breakfast was so filling that I couldn't finish it, and I could really feel their hospitality.
The road to the hotel was narrower and steeper than it looked on the map. It would be better to tell the owner in advance which direction you are coming from and get guidance.

Verified reviewOur hosts, Giovanni and Olga were lovely and made us very welcome. We had Italian- Russian breakfasts each day and they were very generous 😊. Our room was beautifully decorated and the bed linen was nice. An excellent bathroom. Finding the property was a little difficult as the house numbers aren't very logical and the road is narrow. You need to keep going for at least a kilometre and branch right when you see the sign for Arcola.
The mosquitoes!

Verified reviewA wonderful place that is located on top of the hill and the view from the terrace is amazing. The house has a feeling of coziness and warmth. The owners are very kind and helpful. The breakfast is very rich and tasty, the pancakes and homemade jam were perfect. We highly recommend it and if we have the chance we will visit again.

Verified reviewI was really happy with the hospitability of the owners. A really pleasant stay in a great location. Easy to travel to La Spezia with public transport. A welcoming home with a great breakfast and good company. A lovely garden, overlooking the Arcola hills. Away from the busy city. Very clean home, you will feel well looked after. Certainly a place I would return to!
