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 really enjoyed our stay! The hosts were very kind and hospitable. They informed us about the repair work on the railway tracks and offered to pick us up in their car in the neighboring town. The apartment was very clean. Take into consideration that this apartment is located in the upper part of the city, so it is about 20-30 minutes walk UP from the lake to get there. NB! Since this is Italy with a warm climate, be prepared for insects! Do not leave the balcony doors open for a long time, as insects (wasps, ants) can get into the apartment.

Verified reviewEverything was perfect! The hosts are the true gem of this place. They were so kind and even gave us a lift a few times since we didn’t have a car. <3 The apartment is close to the hiking trail (which was our main priority) and has a stunning lake view from the terrace. Absolutely beautiful! Thank you Giulia and Fabio!

Verified reviewThe hosts Giulia and Fabio were so friendly and welcoming. When Giulia saw from the Passport that it was my wife's birthday during our stay she bought a birthday cake and brought it up to the apartment for my wife. The cake was lovely. The apartment itself was of good proportions, very clean and had an exceptional view over the lake. I would highly recommend this apartment for a stay in Mandello del Lario, superb.
Not a problem for us but some less fit people may find the location a struggle. However it's downhill into town and would be a short taxi ride back. For us the uphill location was a bonus for the views.
Thank you so much Ian for your kind words. It was a pleasure having you as our Guest, we thought of giving you a little birthday present, glad you appreciated it :) Wishing you all the best, Giulia and Fabio

Verified reviewThe owners are super friendly, sending you the best wishes! They helped with parking the car, took care of everything, and we felt very comfortable. The cleanliness in the apartment was perfect, we felt like we were the first guests in these apartments. The view of Lake Como from the window was a delight to the eyes. We would definitely come back here again.
For those who have never driven a car in Italy, entering the driveway can be a bit tricky, but don’t worry, the owners will help if needed!
Thank you very much Gabriele for your kind review! It has been a pleasure meeting you! Hope to see you again in future! Best wishes, Giulia and Fabio

Verified reviewCompletely new apartment with all the required amenities and stunningly beautiful view of the lake and the Alps. Spotlessly clean and run by a lovely and helpful couple living downstairs from the apartment.
Nothing to complain about really. Maybe the narrow winding streets of the town to get there, but has nothing to do with the apartment itself.
Thank you Grzegorz for reviewing us! We are very glad you had a great days here in our accomodation. We wish you all the best, Fabio and Giulia

Verified reviewThe view from the two balconies was amazing (one towards the lake and the other towards the mountain in the back) - the photos do not do the place enough justice. The apartment was very well equipped with a large bedroom and thorough and meticulously cleaned. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful - they gave us great advice on places to eat. The neighborhood is very quiet and the parking is right outside the building. The location is excellent - 20 min driving distance to Varenna, where ferries can take you to other places in Como (there is also a nearby train station). Highly recommended!
Thank you so much Dimitris for reviewing us! We really appreciate you and your family enjoyed your stay at our accomodation. Hope to see you again in future :) Wishing you all the best, Giulia and Fabio :)

Verified reviewIf I could give more than 10/10 I would. Owners are absolutely amazing and very friendly and they've picked us up from train station without us even asking for it, they've asked us do we need a lift. House is very beautiful, very well equiped with all facilities you need and everything is new. I've been staying in many places but I've never seen a place so clean, it was spotless. Place have a few balconies and the views are breathtaking. My girlfriend is very picky when it comes to hotels and apartments and she absolutely loved the place. Thank you for having us and we hope to see you again.
There's a few minute walk up the hill if you don't have a car, but i guess that's the price for a beatiful view and it's a small price to pay :)
Thank you so much for your kind review, and thank you for staying with us! We really appreciate your kindness and the care you had for our accomodation. Hope to see you in future! Best wishes, Giulia and Fabio

Verified reviewIt was just beautiful, no other words can describe it. The view was amazing, and Giulia and Fabio are so warm and welcoming. They picked us up in their car when we missed the last train, and to save us walking back in the rain down some mainstream roads. Truly lovely people and a truly lovely stay. I cannot recommend any more highly!

Verified reviewVery spacious apartment with breathtaking view on the lake and mountains. The owners are so friendly and helpful. We arrived much later in the evening than the check in time but that was no problem for Gulia and Fabio to welcome us with a big smile. We appreciate the welcome plate with different kinds of tea and coffee they prepared for us. The apartment is completely new, decorated with style. The kitchen is very well equipped with all utensils you might need (kettle, coffee machine, microwave, oven, induction cooker plate). Dishwasher soap and sponge. In the bathroom you have first aid kit, shampoo, shower gel, hairdryer, even the washing machine with liquid soap. The heating was excellent. Although we stayed on the beginning of May evenings were chill so they turned on the heating for us. In front of the house there is a free parking place provided for the guests which is a big plus since the parking around lake Como is mission impossible. Gulia was always ready to give us useful advices what to see, where to go, what to do. I don't have enough words to thank them for their hospitality. We spent 7 days there feeling at home. If we ever come to lake Como again we won't bother to look for another accommodation. Apartment Larius will be our place again.
The location is perfect if you are coming by car.
