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 KingdomVery comfortable room in a fabulous historic building which is a short walk from all the major attractions. The room was clean, the bed comfortable and the shower great. There are a few steps to the rooms which are obviously old so you have to be a little careful but as long as you turn on the lights you’ll be ok. I’ve read in some of the previous reviews that it’s noisy, I wouldn’t say it was at all, however, if you’re a very light sleeper take ear plugs. My only very minor complaint (and it is very minor) is that our room could have had some drinking glasses (even plastic ones) and a couple more coffee mugs (see very minor!) it’s not 5 star but we had a very comfortable stay at this quaint historic building. Lastly I must mention the staff who were very helpful and friendly.

AustraliaThe bed was extremely uncomfortable, the slates on the bed were broken meaning it dipped near the head. The pillows were very uncomfortable with very little cushion. The shower was good pressure but old and mould in spots. The bathroom smelt of urine sometimes and the noise from the people walking above you in the room was awful at night.
The location was great. Right in the middle of all of the great spots with walking distance to everything. The room. Was well presented at first glance.

CanadaWe forgot some 3 jackets in the cabinet, the staff took a long a time to act and respond. I wanted them shipped to Rome while I was still in Italy. When I left the place there was still 6 days left for them to ship them to me, but they did not move fast enough. Also they claimed they did not find both my kids jacket, which I know for certain were together because we saw them in the cabinet the night before leaving (and we did not use them because of the really high temperatures outside). In the end, our mistake to forget them, but I did not feel any real effort from them to help me get our stuff back.

NetherlandsThe room looked a bit dated and worn down compared to the photos. There was some minor damage to the side of the bed and in the shower which looked easily fixable but now detracted a bit from the experience of staying here. The fridge looked a bit too dirty for us to use it so we didn't use it at all.
The location of Residenza d'epoca Borgo Albizi is absolutely fantastic, in about five minutes you're standing in front of the Duomo. Additionally the recommended parking was only 2 minutes walking away and easily booked online. The airconditioning in the room was a godsend to deal with the summer heat.

United StatesThe possibility to leave baggage with reception after check-out is really a necessity. I had not realized we would need to climb 2 flights of stairs with our baggage. We managed ok but being forewarned is important. I had not understood from the Expedia website which room we had booked, and I erroneously expected a larger room. It worked out okay nonetheless, for such a quick stay.
location was great. accommodations were charming, however there were some challenges.

AustraliaThere were only a couple of tea cups & mugs in the room. It would have been great to have a few small plates. Overall though it was great for a couple of nights stay.
It was a great location, close to all the main tourist attractions. Check-in was easy as the management have an office on the ground floor of the building and the lady who checked us in was very helpful & friendly. The room was very spacious & there was a good supply of towels at our disposal.
