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 distance is just perfect and the instructions to enter are good!
We came after 3pm to check in and the room was still dirty and the toilets, we understand there was an issue with housekeeping but the lady was going to leave the previous dirty fitted sheet if we weren’t there because we had to ask!! so we ask to put at least 2 clean big top sheet as there was no fitted sheet and they didn’t clean anything else, not the floor or the closet or the desk :/. And the toilets are ok…

Verified reviewThe location is not bad, on the one end of Niccolo Piccini Road, where is near to the garden. From the airport to the center, it is the first stop, close to the place. However, I found the other end of the street is the central and busy area of the city centre, but it's not far from it, around 10 minutes walk. The landlady is very nice. When I asked if I can deposit my luggage for a while, she tried to help me. In addition, they prepared a set of towels for free and two bottles of water in a small mini bar.
To lock yourself in the room using a key when go to bed.

Verified reviewThe location is wonderful, the personnel on the virtual reception as well, and that's it.
It was a small room, with noisy neighbors, the silent system should be better. If you value your comfort, you should choose another option for living in Bari.

Verified reviewGreat location, clean, big rooms, comfy bed, and very good communication from the staff. I could enter the building earlier and leave my suitcase before the room was ready. It had everything I needed, and the shared bathrooms were no problem at all! As a solo traveler, I felt safe and enjoyed my stay :)

Verified reviewThe place was nice and well placed. The shared bathrooms and toilets were always clean. We were able to enjoy the balcony. And also the bed was very comfortable.
We had some issues for our arrival to entry the building because the check-in is on-line but did not work well so we had to contact the owner. We also had an issue with the lock. However, the owner answered quite quickly and was helpful.

Verified reviewVery good accommodation, especially in terms of value for money. The possibility of self-check-in. The location is very good, 15 minutes on foot from the city center and 20 minutes to the metro and bus station. This is accommodation with a shared bathroom that is cleaned regularly, and hygiene is at a satisfactory level. My recommendations for this accommodation :)

Verified reviewAlthough the check-in instructions say check-in is between 3-9pm it was possible to check-in any time during the night because it's a self check-in. Perfect for me. Mind that you need your phone to open the doors into the building first. I stayed only 1 night in winter so it wasn't that busy and it was fairly quiet at night although sound isolation is not good there. For me it had everything I needed, my private room was super clean, had all the towels, hairdryer, room had enough places to hang clothes and put all my stuff, chairs, desk, even a mini fridge with some water bottles in, a kettle for making tea, good mirror, wonderful massive window and even a private balcony with chair and table! And a very comfy bed. Oh, and a great napoletan pizzeria right next door that is open very late! Fantastic!
In winter the room was too cold for me, it had clear instructions to use the AC heater using a key into a lock below but they key didn't work and I couldn't use the heater. I only stayed one night so I didn't have time to ask them to solve the problem. The shared bathrooms can easily get dirty and have wet floors because often there are people who are selfish and don't want to clean up after themselves. Sound isolation is not good so can be difficult to sleep if there is noise from the other rooms or from the street..
