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.).

Breakfast small, cheap commercially bought pastries, tiny portion of cornflakes every day. Excellent coffee however! ....and refills on request 😋 Ashtray far too small for my smoker brother, but bless her, Maria emptied it discreetly and frequently. I hadn't realised owner lived in the apartment (maybe I didn't read description closely enough) and you're definitely not allowed to wash any clothing there. Launderette nearby, 11 euros
Nice and quiet, very good location to walk to station and to all of Sorrento with ease. Very clean, Maria made the beds up daily with expert precision and neatness. Maria provided us with a kettle upon request which was very handy, and a generous welcome gift of fruit and small Sorrento prints. Welcoming and comfortable accommodation. Very clean modern bathroom. Maria changed bedding and towels after a few days, but needn't have done! Private bathroom was modern, spotless, great shower.

Maria was so helpful with our travel plans. Breakfast was according to our requested time. When we had to leave at 5:30 am, she had breakfast for us ready to take away. Very clean. Comfortable bed. Location was perfect. She made great suggestions for dinner, ferry, and bus transportation. I would come back again!

The infrastructure in this part of the world struggles to cope with the volume of tourists.
The hostess could not be more attentive to our needs nor more pleasant. The apartment was very clean and very convenient for the centre of town and transport links.

The only thing was that at night, it got very cold. We were provided with extra blankets but we were still a little chilly. However I think this may be a seasonal thing.
We loved how safe and secure the apartment felt. We also enjoyed the room layout. It was nice to have our own beds. We also loved our host, Maria. She was so sweet and told us all about Capri where she is from, and about Sorrento, giving restaurant recommendations and help with transit. She also prepared us breakfast, and even was so kind to clean up our room after we left it a huge mess since we were in a rush to leave. The apartment was very clean and really made us feel at home.

There was honestly nothing we didn’t like!
We loved the owner of the property as she ensured that we were comfortable at all times. She provided us with a yummy breakfast each morning and would tidy our room. She gave us amazing advise on which restaurants we should go to which was super helpful as it is easy to get stuck in tourist trap places and spend more than you should. We are very happy with our stay and would come back again in the future!

We had a wonderful stay at Maria’s B&B. Maria went out of her way to make us feel welcome including a lovely welcome gift which we really appreciated. Location of b&b is fantastic, close to train station and within walking distance of all the sights of Sorrento. Great breakfast. The room was really comfortable and had a lovely balcony too. The bathroom had everything we needed. Maria gave us lots of great recommendations for restaurants and day trips. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Sorrento!

The owner is very controlling and wouldn't even give u water other than when served with breakfast. She will keep the kitchen locked. I asked for water 1 night and she got annoyed and lied and told me that i told you have to get your own water. You cant drink a glass of wine in the house. You cant leave the clothes to dry outside. You cant wash any thing in the house. Too many rules to follow.
The location was good. Very close to the train station and the main Sorrento town.

The hostess Maria does not like sharing her home. She is very impatient and fussy about everything, everything has to be exactly how she tells you when you first come in. She is not friendly and also very cheap with the breakfasts. She also made me feel very bad about asking for the loan of two forks so we could eat our Asian noodles in our room. She got angry and told me that it wasn't in her contract to provide equipment.
It had an elevator as it was on the 5th floor. It wasn't far from the central area and the train station.
