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 reviewThe propriety is really nice. We really enjoy our stay and the hosts were helpful and kind. Restaurants close by are nice and recommendations were helpful.
Is nothing to do with the propriety, just to point that best way to enjoy your stay is with a car as the bus is a bit far and with the hotness is not nice to walk.

Verified reviewIt is a real 400 year old totally remodeled Tuscan villa, just like in the movies! You get all the history with all the modern conveniences. Surrounded by many wineries, close to the public transport to get you to the heart of Florence. Beautiful sunsets from the second floor windows.

Verified reviewGreeted by wonderful and friendly hosts who showed us the property. The property was clean and very comfortable for my family. It was easy to access and not far from the city. Would definitely stay again if we return to Florence. Thanks for hosting our family.
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure to host such a wonderful and kind family. You are always welcome in our home, and we would be delighted to host you again if your travels bring you back to Florence. Warmest regards!

Verified reviewReasonably Quiet location on outskirts of Florence. Set in an old farm house that has been divided into apartments. Original features well preserved but modern facilities. The owners were very helpful. Good air conditioning through out the apartment.the Tramvia is an excellent way to get around.
The outdoor furniture was severely lacking. There is a lovely patio and garden but only two uncomfortable deck chairs to sit in. The dining table has only bench seating. The TV was 20 years or so old and broke while we were trying to watch the Olympics. Hopefully it will be replaced with a more modern device.
Thanks for your review. We were expecting guests from the United States and were pleasantly surprised to find two travelers from New Zealand who discover the world together and have been to Florence for the first time 30 years ago. We were pleased that you chose our house to return to after so many years. I'm sorry you didn't like our deckchairs. Until now all the guests appreciated them and spent their evenings enjoying the sunset, relaxing under the loggia or sunbathing in the garden. The TV was rather a historical piece than a device for watching television. We didn't give much importance to this aspect. Our idea of the holiday home was more oriented towards the history and nature of the place, towards pleasant evenings outdoors. Thanks for your suggestions. We will certainly try to improve the aspects that did not satisfy you to give more comfort to future guests.

Verified reviewProperty was located near Broncigliano and made for a nice Tuscany experience. In speaking with Alina, we were informed that the property was approximately 400 years old which amazed us. Gated for privacy, the residence was exactly what I was looking for in the Tuscany reason.

Verified reviewI always dreamt to stay in such a house. It is sort of country side , with nice garden, very old house in the style of a manor. Beds were comfortable, we were a bit chilly when we arrived (end of April), but the house got warm quickly with a bit of AC and did not need it after.
Since it is not aesthetic to such a house, the windows do not have mosquito nets, so not sure how it is with mosquitos during summetime when you need to vent a lot more.

Verified reviewWonderful location and large enough for the 7 of us. The property was very well furnished, clean and comfortable.
We got delayed on the way to the property - late fee of 20 Euros per hour for checkin was a surprise. But accept the explanation of the owner that this is accommodate for their extra time. Would be nice if this was more explicit upfront.
Thank you for your review. It was a pleasure to meet you and host you in our holiday home. We did not charge any guests to check in after hours. We understand very well that there may be traffic on the road, planes arrive late or trains run out of schedule. We only ask that you notify us and agree on this thing. I'm sorry that you were surprised because the rules are written on our announcement and in addition they are sent at the time of booking. Just read them and respect them.

Verified reviewA true Tuscan experience. Aside from the very authentic and beautiful house, the kitchen was well equipped with dishes, pots and pans. It also had a large refrigerator which is great when traveling with kids. The washer was a life saver with lots of place to hang clothes out to dry. Large yard for the babies to run around. Comfortable beds. Clean house. Amazing views and kind and friendly hosts. Felt very safe with large remote control gate. Great parking for the car.
Nothing bad to say. Just an overall great experience.

Verified reviewWe stayed at Podere Fichereto during a family trip that included two seniors, and we absolutely loved the Tuscan atmosphere of the property and its cozy garden. The owner made us feel very welcome and explained everything we needed to know. The only thing to keep in mind is that there are some stairs to the bedrooms, so it may not be the best fit for grandparents who have difficulty with stairs. However, if that's not an issue, it's a fantastic place to stay.
