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 reviewDon Carlo Tropea is a wonderful BnB. We stayed for (sadly) only one night while travelling from Sicily to Minori. Our room was beautiful, clean, modern, spacious and charming. The bathroom was also very clean and modern. Carlo, the proprietor, checked us in and was very welcoming. Upon checkout, we met Carlo's father, who was also lovely. We were able to park our car onsite. We were given a voucher for a light breakfast at a nearby bar. Tropea is quite possibly the prettiest town in which we have ever stayed. It is both charming and elegant with so many shops and restaurants within walking distance from the BnB. The beach is an easy walk as well. Grazie mille for hosting us.

Great breakfasts included and it was extremely very handy that they have a laundry service, your clothes come back smelling exceptional. What makes the place is the owners and how they welcome and look after their guests. I definitely would come back.

Location of the property is also great, particularly if you are without a car. The hostess also leave a little bag with beach towels for during your stay which was a nice little surprise. Great stay overall 😊

Verified review⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Don Carlo Tropea – A Total Gem We had such a wonderful stay at Don Carlo Tropea. From the moment we arrived, Karina and her husband Carlo made us feel completely at home. They’re both so kind, thoughtful, and clearly love what they do — they really went above and beyond for us in every way. The location is ideal — peaceful but close to everything. The room was spotless, spacious, and super comfortable. Every little detail was thought of — from toothbrushes and toothpaste to a beach bag filled with essentials in case you forgot anything. It’s rare to see that kind of care and attention in a hotel. And I have to say — the breakfast was incredible. Seriously. Everything was fresh, homemade, beautifully presented… we looked forward to it each morning. This place has heart. You can feel it. It’s not just a beautiful stay — it’s a warm, welcoming experience you’ll remember. I’m already hoping to come back someday, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Don Carlo to anyone visiting Tropea.

A delicious breakfast was served each morning on the terrace with homemade cakes and jams. Made to order egg dishes were amazing too! The room was wonderful and very clean.

Verified reviewWe absolutely loved our stay at Don Carlo Tropea. Katrina, our host, was incredibly warm, caring, and attentive, she truly made us feel at home. Her freshly made breakfasts were delicious, and the accommodation itself was spotless and centrally located. The bathroom was a standout, with a luxurious massage-style shower that was so refreshing after a day at the beach. We also enjoyed the company of other lovely guests during our stay. It was such a special experience. I highly recommend this beautiful place and would definitely stay again!
