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.).

Lighting at door was poor so difficult to see what to do when trying to access the key box. Further from most things than it seemed from the write up...not an area in which I felt very safe to walk around after sunset....rough pavements.....17 euros in taxi fare to get there.
Lovely room & facilities but no window or view to outside world....a window on to an enclosed balcony full of stuff. Supermarket quite close and good pizza ristorante Comfortable bed, well proportioned en suite.

The apartment is very nice, clean, the bathroom is big and has all needed facilities, we liked having access to the kitchen and we used it, including the coffee :) the owner is very nice and helpful, we had clean towels every day, even if we didn’t need them. We actually didn’t enjoy the fact that the breakfast was in a nearby location, and not actually in the same building. The room is not actually sea front, but you can see the sea from the balcony. A tip to future guests: take some flip flops or house shoes with you, the floors are very cold.

The property was super clean, with a daily cleaner which was fabulous! The security was great, the shower was amazing, the bed was super comfortable, the cafe for breakfast was a lovely surprise with a fresh white lovely cafe, the parking was so helpful & convenient right out the front & free! Raffaele was very attentive & helpful gave us early access as we thought we were going to need it, so he was very obliging to help us & sorted that for us! It’s on the outskirts of old town Bari, we used it as a base to go up & down Puglia it was spacious & super comfortable! Highly recommend Ponte Sul mare and it’s close to the beach as well! Thank you Raffaele 🙏🏻the property even has a shared kitchen with a coffee machine & things to have a nibble on if you’re hungry for morning afternoon or night snacking! Really lovely touch…

I think the neighbors are having either wheelchair, either baby with some toys which are rolling over all day and night making a lot of noise.
I really liked the room, with big bed, big bathroom, large windows.

There was nothing I could say wrong about this property
It was very fresh clean with friendly staff and the shower is the best I have had in an apartment. This also includes breakfast at a local cafe round the corner which you get coffee and croissant and has very friendly staff. The food was delicious good that we went back for seconds. Highly recommended this place.

The pillows were extremely uncomfortable, and one of the legs of the additional bed was unstable. It collapsed, causing that part of the bed to fall while sleeping.
A nice and clean room with a very large bathroom. The location is excellent, close to the historical part of the city and the airport. Breakfast was organized at a nearby hotel, just a few minutes' walk from the building. There is a shared kitchen that can be used by all guests staying in the apartment. It is a good option if you need to travel early in the morning. The beach is just a few minutes away.

The property is located close to the building that is renovated and the noises has started early morning. We had experienced vulgar neighborhood during the night hours (around 11PM).
We liked cleanliness, supportive owner, location (close to the beach), easy access to apartment. In overall apartment is comfortable and well-equipped.

We didn't like the noise from the neighbors. During the day until 12 AM there was a constant sound from an appliance, maybe for heating. During the night started again one time, maybe around 5 AM, and then more constant at 7 AM.
The room and the bathroom are big and offer what you need. We had access to the kitchen any time we needed which was nice. The host also left things for us to eat, such as biscuits and chips. The communication with the host was good and answered any questiones we had. We also enjoyed the coffee and pastries from the breakfast at the near caffeteria. Overall it was a good experience!
