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.).

New ZealandIt was definitely hot! But our lovely host provided a fan which helped a lot. The keys can be a bit fiddly but once you get the hang of it it’s great.
Our host was exceptionally lovely and made us feel right at home. It’s in the most amazing location to explore Lucca and the city walls! Plenty of bike hire, restaurants and a supermarket a few minutes away!

United KingdomI had an inner facing room, so it did get quite stuffy, but the fan was fine. No mirror in room.
Mavis apartments is along a good street, not far from the main square. Plenty of restaurant and shops nearby. The rooms are on the 3rd floor, but easily accessed by lift. There are 2 bathrooms, shared between 3 bedrooms. All rooms have a large fan (no air con) but that is sufficient. There is a microwave, kettle and a fridge, which is handy for light meals, but you can’t exactly cook! Rosearia, who looks after the apartments. Is very friendly and helpful, if needed.

United KingdomShower wasn't very hot.
Lovely host, fantastic location, just inside the walls, 2 minute walk to bus station, 15 minutes to train station, bakery and pizza places on the doorstep, loads of things to see and do here. Comfy room, relatively quiet given that it's on a pretty busy touristy street, good facilities - fridge, kettle and microwave.

United KingdomShower was a bit hit and miss, regulating the temperature and stopping it from flooding the floor was problematic. Being taller, it made the shower difficult to use.
Location was superb, inside the walled city of Lucca. Close walking distance from all we wanted to see and do. The host was superb, and communication via email and face to face was excellent. The host was very helpful and understanding, especially as we arrived late due to flight delays.

PolandThe Mavi’s bedroom doesn’t provide a cleaning service, so in our room trash spilled out of the bin. Also, there was only one bathtub for 3 rooms.
I think that the best side of this place is localization. The Mavi’s bedroom is in the centre of Lucca, so it’s close to the most popular atractions of the town. The host was really helpfull and nice!

United KingdomA few minor niggles such as loose toilet seats and a feeble and rather noisy ceiling fan (wouldn't expect air conditioning at this price point), but for the price I paid it was an amazing bargain and I'd happily stay there again.
Outstanding value, fantastic location in a beautiful city, very friendly welcome. Just three bedrooms sharing one full bathroom and a separate toilet and basin, with kettle, microwave and fridge provided in the corridor. I was staying there as part of a large group of friends visiting the city but all making independent travel arrangements, and it turned out that three of us had booked into the same place, so we had it to ourselves.

United KingdomI struggled to find where it was on the street and walked past without realises and ended up asking someone . Once I knew it was fine but I do wonder if host is allowed a sign outside the property or if it is worth adding in the description that the name of the place is on the bell you press to gain access? I think host could consider a new more comfortable single bed or to make it a double as the mattress was sunken a bit in the middle and it made my back and hip problem worse .
I found the property to be different and quirky which I like and in a lovely old building with character . The host explained things very well to me and property is maintained very well.

United KingdomThe mattresses were REALLY soft, like a marshmallow. Also, our room was right next to the bathroom, so whenever anyone went in there it would be noisy in our room. I guess it’s like sharing a flat with other people.
Great location, nice and clean, very friendly host who let us leave our bags there after.

United KingdomNothing! We visited in early May so there were no problems with lack of air conditioning - but I imagine in July and August it could be very hot in these third floor rooms. That said, there was a fan in the room we stayed in - so probably okay?
Our stay in Mavis Rooms was absolutely lovely! Great to have the kettle, fridge, microwave and crockery provided - plus teabags! Felt very homely. Rosaria was so welcoming and helpful - and the location in the old centre was perfect. Great restaurants, a supermarket and tourist info nearby - but still quiet enough at night. We'd love to come back.

NetherlandsMy room did not have much daylight and fresh air. It is good for sleeping but for getting some work done, it is better to go to the librarian cafe. It can also be noisy at times (noises of all the neighbours). But at night it is quiet.
The rooms have a nice size, there is an elevator, fridge, cooker and microwave to use. The shower has hot water. There’s wifi to use. Fresh towels are provided. On the ground floor there is enough room to park your (rental) bicycle. The location is excellent.
