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.).

It was not a problem for us, but FYI: bathroom is private but it's not in the room, you need to cross the common corridor
Eugenio was a very nice host and was always in touch if needed. Also there were all the necessary supplies which was really comfortable. Breakfast (cappuccino and cornetto) was provided in the nearest bar with extremely good truly Italian vibe. Great stay!

The shower drain was clogged, resulting in a minor flood.
Great location one street away from the beach. Beautiful bathroom, not too far from the room and a cute little communal kitchen. We were the only ones there.

My stay at Stella Polare Sensorial Home was very pleasant. The owner (Eugenio) was very friendly, kind, and always available. The house is very clean and very close to the sea. The bathrooms feel like a sauna because there are special lights, and you can even connect your phone to listen to music while taking a shower. Breakfast was offered at a nearby café and it was very good. Comfortable beds and rooms equipped with air conditioning and heating. Super positive experience! I will definitely come back!

There was a smell in the room (not a bad smell but a weird smell, kind of like baby care product smell) , I think it came from the cleaning products but it was a bit strong
The owner welcomed us and was very friendly, location is very close to the beach, easy access from Rome and to the airport by public transportation. The room, bathroom and kitchen/fridge were clean

Everything. The owner was kind and very helpful, the facilites were great, we had a great television and the bathroom had led lights with Bluetooth to play music, which we loved. The area is very peaceful and the beach is very near. To get to the area with more restaurants, the walk is about 15minutes, which is great. We were also offered a lovely breakfast for both of our mornings there.

Good location. While it did not have air conditioning ... clear in description... it did have modern ceiling fans with blades that didnt show! Good views from the windows. Also while no en-suite ... again clear ... it had 2 great bathrooms for just 4 appartments. Nearby restraunts and bars full of locals which is a nice change.

One of the showers was clogged, no A/C (we didn't need it as it was not hot on my stay) and IDK if it's normal but garbage collection after midnight is crazy (doesn't have to do anything with Sensorial Home though but more about location?)
Everything was good, Eugenio is a very caring owner/manager, helped us around with locating stores, recommended restaurants, met us at Ciampino airport late at night

Good living conditions, very clean. The kitchen and bathrooms are modernly equipped. There are many cafes and shops nearby, and the beach is close. The host, Eugenio, is very kind. He made us delicious coffee and told us about the city. After check-out, he drove us to the airport and told us about the city's attractions along the way. Thank you very much for a wonderful stay!

The booking.com page for the property states the transfer from the airport to the property is 'free' but then Eugenico informed us it was 35 euros, which was a disappointment because we chose the property for that reason.
Good location for getting to the beach and to restaurants. Room was a little tight for 2 people plus bags, but if you're staying for multiple days you could utilize the shelving/closets. Bathrooms had colorful ambient lighting and there are two of them for the 3 rooms. Recommendations for restaurants close by were good.

We were lead to believe the unit had a view of the river and Parliament. No view.
The location was walking distance to the beaches.

The host was great. He was in contact with us via WhatsApp. The check in and check out was easy and quick. We had very clear instructions day earlier so we knew how to organize our arrival. The place was very clean. Great place for a breakfast, two minutes from the train station and opened early, which was very convenient.
