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 KingdomOnly downside was the stairs/lift situation. The lift was tiny, so if you’re claustrophobic you will 100% have to use the stairs. We got used to it though and it was totally worth the view!
The private outdoor area and view of our room was so incredibly special. The whole place was clean and comfortable and it had two bathrooms which was a plus. Everything was modern and the mini bar was well stocked and free. The staff were also extremely friendly and the room got cleaned everyday. Highly recommend this place!

United StatesThere was something wrong with de air conditioning in the bedrooms, it turn off and you have to turn them back on. We told the lady, but it was like that the whole stay. The are a lot of stairs to get to the apartment and the elevator is super tied, for us was ok but is really small if you are claustrophobic.
Very good location, a few blocks from the duomo. Nice apartment with everything you need, does not have a kitchen, but it has a mini fridge full of things included in the price, no the alcohol beverages. A supermarket across the street. They clean the apartment daily. The host was super attentive. Many restaurants nearby.

United StatesOne thing to know is that there is an elevator but all the doors need to be closed in order for it to work. You also need to jiggle the key in order for it to work. Turn right and touch the floor #. Then you can take the key out.
It was a beautiful apartment that looked exactly like the photos. The hosts went above and beyond for me and my wife for our honeymoon. It was a perfect stay for 4 days in Florence. They even helped us call a taxi on the day of checkout.

AustraliaNothing that I can recall. The lift was small but functional and I enjoyed the stairs. Beautiful old building renovated well.
The terrace was fantastic with stunning views. The apartment was more than I needed as a solo traveller but it was great to have the space for a 5 night stay. The staff were incredibly helpful and understanding. Great recommendations. Location was extremely convenient to everything and easy to access by taxi with luggage.

United KingdomIt’s hard to criticise anything about this place but I would say that the bathrooms could have been a bit cleaner and they could have been decorated better.
This apartment is utterly beautiful. So spacious and perfect for couples. There are two bathrooms, a spacious bedroom, a little dining area and a lovely terrace with a stunning view that is hard to believe when you first arrive. Donnatella could not have been more helpful or lovely when we arrived.

United Arab EmiratesAs many buildings in Florence, the elevator is not for the faint of heart. And the stairs are dark at night.
Nothing beats the terrace.. it will be one we will remember our whole lives. It made the stay in Florence extra special. Donatella and Naomi and the team were wonderfully helpful and attentive. Our AC had an issue one night, but they solved it the next morning. The snacks offerings was very kind. The daily cleaning service was great. The location is unbeatable.

United StatesWe stayed in a 2bed 2bath apartment . We were 2 adults and 2 teen aged girls . It’s a bit confusing when the taxi dropped us we are supposed to press a buzzer . We could not find the entrance . I went up stairs and there was an old door locked . Then finally after 15-20 min a nice lady came down to get us . Turns out buzzer was not working and we had to call .U need a key to open that old door and the apartments are behind . there is a tiny elevator but if not there are a lot of stairs to get to the room as this was an old 15th century castle . It’s an exercise , But when u get to the room it’s a big contrast super nice newly renovated and updated . Feels like u are in a 5 star hotel that apt. we are back in the 21st century!! . A bit disappointing that there was no terrace or balcony as in the picture . I would ask before booking if u really need one. we stayed there 4 nights and it was very very comfortable . They also provide daily cleaning services. Donna is very nice and helpful and they left our little fridge stacked . Location is amazing right on the center of Florence very close to el duomo and within 15 min walk of all the attractions . There is a supermarket right underneath the building and laundry is very close by . Great restaurants within 1 -2 min walk . Overall we were very happy and recommend it

United KingdomPillows are memory foam - not to everyone's taste (not my favourite choice but they were fine for a few nights and I still slept very well in the comfortable bed).
Absolutely stunning apartment that exceeded our expectations. We stayed in the one bedroom apartment with the roof terrace. The roof terrace is the jewel in the crown! A stunning view of the duomo which can be enjoyed from the outside seating/lounge area. Totally covered so could be enjoyed even when raining. Inside, the apartment is finished to a very high standard, very well equipped and very comfortable. Two bathrooms! Both with good showers. Very comfortable bed. Air con works well (and was much needed when we were there in 30°c temperatures!). The provision of a little fridge, coffee machine (nespresso) and kettle is very welcome. As a bonus there is a study area on a mezzanine floor, and also a clothes steamer if you were here on business. Two TVs if that's important. Wifi was reliable. Location is perfect, so close to everything but we heard limited noise when sat on the terrace, and no noise at all from the inside. Hosts Donatella and Naomi were fantastic - very quick to respond and so helpful with our queries. We cannot wait to visit again!
