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 KingdomIn terms of check in, all that was needed to get in was a code to unlock the front door and another code to unlock the key box to get the key to unlock the apartment. Unfortunately the host did not send them beforehand so we had to wait around and connect to Internet to contact the host for this information. We then had to wait another 30+ minutes for the host to come just to take payment, this could have been done on the card used with booking.com, thus wasting our time. Furthermore, the bathroom smelt of sewage due to poor and old plumbing, the shower was either very cold or very hot, you couldn't have both, so I could not wash my hair. The host was contacted twice, but only turned up the first time they were contacted about this problem and did not show again after contacting them again for the 2nd time about the problem remaining. The building itself is old and so there were crumbs on the sofa from debris from the ceiling. The host also told us not to lock our apartment door which was odd and unsafe. The AC was very weak and doesn't reach the upper floor where the bed is and it is also loud in the mornings on the street outside which wakes you up. There were also stairs to go up which was hard with luggage. Only small bins in the flat.
The location was great, only 10 minutes walk from the main square with the cathedral and good bus and tram links nearby if you're coming from the central station. Towels were provided and some soap and toilet roll.

GreeceWe were not informed while booking that one of the two rooms had bedroom upstairs (not comfortable at all). In addition, there was a very bad smell in the other room all day long and there weren't any shampoo or shower gel in it (we finally had them one day after our request).
One of the two rooms was very comfortable and some special requests were fulfilled (iron).

AustraliaEverything was great other than the shower is mouldy and needs a good bleach and scrub. The mould made the bathroom smell as well.
The bed was comfortable, the location was great, about 10-15 minutes from the train and same to the main sights. The room was spacious, didn’t realise it was such a big room!! The staff were polite, quick with communication and allowed us to store our bags prior to check in. Had air conditioning as well!!

NetherlandsDishwasing soap was leftover mixed with water, pillow was too soft, so many mosquitoes (need mosquito net for windows). No exhaust for kitchen, no washing machine. Floors was not mopped properly. Bedsheet has bloodstain (use bleach when u wash them. U need to install soap dispenser for shower. Smell of sewer outisde unit on stairway area. Maybe because it is tourist area so it was kind of noisy at night. Noise especially came from trash bin area. Walls rather thin so you can hear neighbors. Sponge to wash dishes were used and dirty with black spots n hair on it.
Location was excellent because you can walk to Duomo, lots of food places and shopping. Also love the heaters, so many. Hot water n bidet was great. Space of room was excellent. Wifi strong.

South AfricaThe apartment sits inside a building with no window out onto the street , so you feel like you’re a bit removed from the activity of the city and quite cave like. This is a personal preference - we enjoy being able to look out and see the movements of the city when traveling.
Room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. Provided everything that we needed for the stay in Florence.

AustraliaThe room didn’t look like the picture attached to our booking at all. It was much smaller, no couch only a bed, small table that’s pretty much also next the kitchenette bench, it didn’t have windows other than a small balcony that’s facing a between-building space that smelt like sewage. It seems that they had used the same photos of their best room for all other rooms so it was untrue and confusing. The room had strange smell and the checkin required messaging the host to confirm arrival time beforehand AND also on WhatsApp 20-30mins prior, however we didn’t have phone reception till we arrived on time after the initial contact so there was some confusion and we had to wait for a bit. Although the staff member who welcomed us was rather friendly and was responsive.
Good location. Aircon was working well, had basic facilities.

AustraliaWater pressure is a little lackluster, not a big deal certainly enough. We didn’t have any problems with these things but be aware: no elevator but apartments are on 1st floor up one medium set of narrow stairs. You share a private entrance and corridor with 3 other apartments. We had no issues with noise.
Spacious room with small kitchenette - tap, fridge/freezer, microwave, toaster etc. Comfortable bed and bedding. Large bathroom. Good amounts of storage. Communicative hosts. Excellent location on a quieter street with lots of great food options nearby as well as a supermarket and laundrette and very walkable to all attractions.

Czech RepublicI did not like communication upon prior our arrival. We were asked when we would arrive. I replied that at about 8pm. I was warned that check-in is by 7pm (true). So I asked what would happen if we did not make it. I got no reply. So we hurried (we were driving), skipped lunch, skipped shopping on the way to try to make it by 7. We did not (traffic jams). At 6.45 we received instructions how to open the apartment ourselves. Come on! We could have been driving stress free. Everything else was fine afterwards. Only the balcony was a bit smelly (4 AC units and back part of houses) so we did use it at all, however the AC worked perfectly.
The location is fantastic. You can walk to the cathedral in less than 10 mins. The street is quiet but as you walk towards the centre, it gets busier. The room was comfy with basic cooking utilities which we did not use (in Italy we did not want to cook ourselves). The bathroom was superb. Finally we even managed to learn how to open the front door easily.

ItalyI honestly had higher expectations about a couple of aspects: 1) possibility of depositing the luggage upon arrival (even before check-in) and the possibility to leave the luggage after check-out. This would have allowed me to save some money, and would probably make things easier for the customers. I understand that probably there is no space for such a service in the building, but creating a partnership with a luggage store in the area would be a nice plus. 2) I was quite surprised by the lack of the shower door. and also the grid on the shower floor was not properly placed. Not big issues, but something I noticed
The location is really good, it's just a 10 minutes walk from/to the train station, and a 15min walk to Piazza della Signoria. Perfect for a walking-weekend in Firenze ! The staff is polite and the size of the room is good. I also fully appreciated the possibility of using A/C for heating up the room.
