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 KingdomNo negatives about the property but the location is obviously short on parking, we were able to find space in the carpark at the end of the harbour.
The location was ideal, the breakfast was freshly prepared fruit, yogurt and homemade granola and an impressive range of fresh pastries, exceptional🙂

United KingdomBreakfast - claustrophobic. I’m not sociable at that time in a morning - some may like it, but too close for me. It’s a B& B though so that’s what one gets.
Great location - bang in the heart of charming & historic Portoferraio. Clean, good facilities, great hosts. A smooth check in. Lots of local info with recommendations that checked out. Bathroom & bed both well done for comfortable stay - very nice with high quality products. My room had a small balcony, overlooking local street. A/C, fridge, coffee maker, & plenty of water from main kitchen. Quiet, good sleep & perfect for the ferries.

DenmarkAccess to the b&b was on the second floor with steep stairs. A bit tough to get the luggage up
Very personal and charming style. The room and bathroom were really nice. Breakfast was served by the owners wife and was like being a guest in a home. The food was varied and good quality. The location was right in the middle of the restaurant district but still the room was quiet at night.

United KingdomSlight downside to central location is how loud it can be! But I think we were there during some kind of music festival so it was probably unusual. The windows are double glazed so we were still able to sleep but with the windows open it was very loud! We also thought there might have been two seats on the balcony for us both to sit but there was only one.
Breakfast was delicious with a really wide offer of food and lovely coffee. The bed was insanely comfy and the room and bathroom spacious and clean. Aircon was great. Location is superb. Hosts super welcoming, friendly, and great communicators.

NetherlandsFree parking for your car requires a ten minute walk from the bnb. The hosts will give you information about various places where you can park your car for free.
We had a fantastic stay of a week at this bnb. Perfectly located right at the main town square among nice restaurants and the marina, the hosts have really gone out of their way to create a beautiful place to spend your days on the island of Elba. Very clean and nicely decorated rooms, fitted with airconditioning and spacious bathroom. The host prepared a generous breakfast featuring everything from croissants, various cakes, fresh fruits, cereals and great cappuccino. We were offered great advice for trips, nearby beaches and restaurant recommandations. We can't recommend this place enough!

United StatesWe could not have asked for a better stay. The location was perfect, a 10ish minute walk from the ferry so we didnt need a car, right on the square with all the restaurants. The breakfast was amazing, so delicious with many options. The bed was SO comfortable, I took a photo of the sheets they were so soft. The whole place was tasteful with so many little touches to make it attractive, homey, and comfortable. What a perfect place. The owner is amazing, so accommodating, she allowed us to check in early, leave our stuff all day after check out (for no fee) and come back before our ferry to pick it up. My only regret is we didnt stay longer
