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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

Altamarea is superbly located within minutes of the La Spezia train station; use the lift to get to road level to avoid taking the longer route. From there, it is easy to travel to Cinque Terre, making it a very accessible and affordable base. There are plenty of restaurants, groceries, pharmacies etc. in the vicinity. The rooms are spacious, with efficient layout, large windows for good natural lighting, and spotlessly clean. The bathrooms are also well equipped, with adequate water pressure and consistent hot water (not so with other places we stayed in Venice, Florence and Rome.). Owner Andrea was on hand to give all the instructions and information, which is a real plus (many homestay owners do not meet their guests). We unreservedly recommend Altamarea to any visitors to Cinque Terre.

IrelandThere wasn't anything we didn't like, these are serviced rooms, tea/coffee and a small selection of breakfast items are available in your room, with cafes and supermarkets very close by.
On arrival we were met by our host and to our shame we never got just name we think it's Andrea. He was superb he gave us a warm welcome and lots of details about La Spezia and his recommendation for touring the cinque terre was spot on, thank you!! The room was very clean and was cleaned daily to a very high standard. Water and juices are left daily. Excellent location 4 minutes from train station.

Extremely clean and well maintained property, Host Andrea was very good in explaining everything. Property had very good bathroom amenities, and what was beyond expectation was the availability of safe locker, proper hangers, coffee maker, hot water jug, and juice, cookie, coffee and tea pouches. Cleaning done every day. Overall excellent value for the price. Location was excellent - just 4 minutes walk from La Spezia Centrale station. Free WiFi that actually has great signal.

AustraliaNo complaints. I would offer one suggestion. It would have been nice to have a streaming service available for the benefit of your English guests as all channels on the TV were in Italian.
We loved the location. Just a really quick stroll to the train station, main street and the harbour. Our host was super helpful with recommendations and went out of his way to provide me with an iron and ironing board to freshen up my crushed clothes from travelling. The housekeepers were lovely and came daily. English was minimal but we figured it out and they were happy to accommodate. There is a lift if like me you don't travel light and a laundromat just around the corner if you need it.

Located minutes away from main street with lots of restaurants and shopping. Also, a five minute walk to the train station. We took the train to visit Cinque Terra from Spezia, and it was a great choice. There is much more to do in Spezia. The room was very clean, and hosts were very helpful. They recommended a couple of great local restaurants to eat, which were amazing. Would highly recommend this place. 😊
