Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

Hungary-
We hadn’t planned in advance to visit Como, and unfortunately, all the hotels were fully booked. But we were lucky — the “Shadеs of Lake” apartment was available. The apartment is perfectly located in the city center, between the train station and the ferry pier, making it very convenient for walks and sightseeing. It offers keyless access and is equipped with modern “smart home” technology. The host, Giacomo, explained in advance how to get to the apartment, met us at the door, showed us everything in detail and explained how everything works. He also gave us excellent tips about local sights, restaurants and places to visit in Como. We knew Italians are very friendly people, but Giacomo’s hospitality exceeded all our expectations. We wholeheartedly recommend this apartment to anyone who wants to feel at home and truly enjoy the atmosphere of Como. Thank you so much, Giacomo, for your warm welcome and care! We will definitely come back! 🌿✨

SingaporeDo note that the property is a ground floor unit and whilst not next to a busy road, means less privacy.
Electronic shades helped keep the light out for sleeping! Comfortable beds! Owner was v accommodating on check-in time, we arrived late due to flights.

UkraineIt was super awesome experince to visit Como. We were late for the appointed check-in time and the landlord was always in touch and waited for us to check into the Apartment. We are very grateful for the assistance provided during check-in, especially after a difficult journey. We were also waiting for a pleasant gift personally from the owners. The apartment was very comfortable for a long stay, very clean and is located in a stunning location where it is quiet and a short walk to the historical center and restaurants. We want to say huge thanks for oportunity to stay here and would be happy to visit Como again here in Shades of Lake.
