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 StatesNo couch but it wouldn’t stop us from visiting there again.
We had a wonderful stay in Cefalù, and our host Dario was exceptional. He made sure we had everything we needed—the flat was spotless, completely remodeled, and thoughtfully stocked with fresh fruit, paper towels, and other essentials that made us feel right at home. Every room had its own air conditioner, and we especially enjoyed the small but lovely balcony for relaxing in the evenings. Dario also arranged free parking and coordinated with a very kind gentleman who picked us up in a golf cart and brought us to the flat—a service we highly recommend (only €10 and well worth it). The location is perfect—just a short walk to shops, restaurants, and the marina at Via Presidiana, where we rented a boat daily and had a fantastic time. One tip: make sure your rental boat has an anchor rather than just a weight. The flat is ideal for couples or small families looking to enjoy Cefalù like a local. We would definitely return. Highly recommend!

The house is right in the middle of town you can’t ask for a better location. Very clean beds were comfortable and the air conditioning worked well. I definitely would recommend staying here!

Everything Was Exceptional – Thank You, Dario! Our stay in Cefalù was truly amazing, and a big part of that was thanks to our wonderful host, Dario. He was incredibly attentive and always ready to help. His local recommendations were very helpful and made our trip even more special. Dario created a warm, family-like atmosphere that made us feel completely at home. My family felt comfortable from the very first moment. The apartment, consisting of two rooms and a kitchen, was beautifully designed and very well-equipped. The air conditioning worked perfectly and kept the place cool during the hot days. There were plenty of windows that let in natural light and fresh air, which we really appreciated. We also had access to a washing machine, which was very convenient for a family stay. I would highly recommend this place and especially want to thank Dario for being such a thoughtful and welcoming host. We would definitely love to come back!

Amazing Place! Dario was an amazing host. He met us on arrival, provided details of the B&B; gave awsome recommendations and was always quick to respond to questions during our stay. The Home shows Pride of Ownership and we could not have asked for anything more. He came by to help us with our luggage during our check out and helped with organizing a Taxi to the Train station. Thank you Dario for a wonderful stay that my Family will remember and treasure!

New ZealandA spotlessly clean modern renovated apartment right in the heart of the old town of Cefalu. Two large double bedrooms, nice linens and aircon, with small but lovely and modern ensuite bathrooms with amenities provided. Good kitchen with coffee machine, water and fresh fruit supplied. There is no sofa in the kitchen, but a large table with comfortable chairs and a small balcony two can sit on to people watch on the street below. Parking options are a wee way away as it is in a pedestrian zone, for us about a 12 minute walk from secure paid parking lot Dafne. Dario was a fabulous host who was always available, gave us plenty of info and a warm Sicilian welcome and goodbye. Thanks Dario, we loved Cefalu!

GermanyNothing to do with the apartment. It's a relatively long walk from train station with luggage and kids, crossing the old town, but it's worth it!
Great location, in the old town, close to the smaller but very beautiful beach of Cefalu. Beautiful small street full of restaurants. Quiet at night despite lively in the evening. Apartment was very comfortable, with everything we needed for two adults and two children. Great host, perfect communication and really good recommendations, thank you very much!

The beach can be reached within 2 minutes. Dario's hospitality and helpfulness were cherry on the cake. Thanks to him, it was one of our best vacations.

PeruThere was nothing we didn't like or would change.
The apartment was very comfortable, lots of space, well maintained (plenty of hot water, great wifi, A/C all worked perfect). The apartment is very nicely decorated, great attention to detail, looks and feels brand new. It is located on one of Cefalu's main streets in the center of the historic town, with lots of restaurants, bars and shops just steps away. The beach, cathedral and all important places to see are within minutes walk. Dario made the check-in process very smooth and was incredibly attentive to our needs, responded very quickly, advised us on parking, arranged transportation and recommended excellent restaurants. If we were to come back to Cefalu (which we definitely will), we would call Dario and would love to stay at his place again.
