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.).

IrelandThere's no Wi-Fi or free internet access. There's no hot water either; there's a boiler and not enough water. Only one towel. There's no kettle or cups in the room to even make coffee. No one was there to greet us; the keys were left on a tree...🤬😡

CanadaWhere to start. First of all they changed our location at the last minute. Walking into the place there was a bad smell of wet laundry. All the dirty sheets and towels were in a big bag for who knows how long stinking up the place. Our room was not habitable. The bed sheets had hairs from the last occupants and had no blankets to sleep on. We had to use our jackets as blankets to sleep. The washroom smelt from the plumbing and the shower was not cleaned from the last occupant. When me and my wife said ok we will make the best of it, we will explore the city I started getting messages from the host saying she needs to get into my room to get a bed. Saying I am a group of 2 and she has a group of 4 coming. All of my stuff was open. Clothes, passport, credit cards. I told her no she can't get in. I don't authorize it. She said she will go in anyways. I returned to get my stuff and so I lost my timed ticket to the Colosseum. I got my stuff and left. She didn't apologize or care.
Nothing. We had to leave and get another accommodation.

PolandKinda hot at night and mosquitos. Lack of ammenisties like kitchen. Overall it could also be tidier
Great price, one of the cheapest in Rome. Amazing localisation. Vatican and metro station in walking range while surrounding streets, cafes and restaurants are not full of turists. You really can feel true local vibe. Also really comfy beds

GermanyWell, I think all people reviewing this accommodation have one thing in common, we are not rich. I have a budget when I go on vacation and prefer a simple room, so I have more money to spend on food and shopping. All I need is a clean bathroom and a clean bed with white sheets and this is exactly what I got at Sabo Rooms. I loved the neighborhood, having my coffee with Romans instead of other tourists, living in the apartment of someone's Nonna, outdated but original. I've worked 15 years in tourism (GR), 5 star places and no star places, people will always complain. Be realistic about your expectations, what you pay is what you get. I highly recommend Sabo Rooms to travelers who appreciate authenticity

BrazilEven though it’s expensive to stay, there isn’t even a fan. On Booking it says there is one, but I asked the owner about it three times and was ignored each time. Sleeping in this heat, full of mosquitoes biting you, is terrible. Not worth it. There is nothing in the facilities—horrible, the worst place in Rome. You’re better off sleeping on the streets; at least it’s cooler. Believe me, don’t waste your money on this awful guesthouse.
I was ignored by the owner, so I should also ignore any positive points—if there are any. Not worth it!

PolandThere was a little mess, especially under the beds. Also, the beds used to slide and we had a trouble to sleep without falling into the hole they're were making by that.
Air conditioner. Localisation was great - we could see an anciet obelisk and pretty fountains in the middle of city, near Borghesee gallery.
