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.).

ItalyIt was tiny - the photos are very creatively taken, the room is entirely composed of the bed and the bathroom is basically in a cupboard.
Extremely central, clean and good communication. It was fine for a one-night crash that we needed.

AustraliaThe location was very central and provided easy access to the main town of La Spezia as well as a 10 minute walk away from the station leading to the Cinque Terre. I liked the room, it had air con, a tv, a mini fridge and a reasonable bathroom. The host was very accomodating and often gave us information for day trips we could take.

IsraelWe stayed 6 nights, occupied two rooms. It took repeating complaints until they started cleaning the room appropriately. Not that it was dirty, but they kept "forgetting" to take care of this or that item. In one of the rooms the A/C stopped working. Indeed a small price discount was given, but an immediate fix would have been much better.
Location could not be better! The host was very nice and helpful. Price was reasonable.

GermanyIt actually doesn't feel right to express criticism, since we were so happy with the accommodation. But as a tip for the guests: take earplugs with you. The guest house is in the city center and it could be noisy. We had some with us so it wasn't a problem at all.
The host Eduardo did everything to make us feel very welcomed and comfortable. He took a lot of time to give us restaurant and sight seeing tips and was always reachable if we had questions. The location of the guest house is directly in the center and therefore we didn’t have to take the car to go out for shopping, eating, coffee etc. The room was very clean and lovely decorated.

United KingdomCan't think of anything!
Great all round. Would recommend/stay again. Was worried before arrival that the location might have been noisy, as it's on the main pedestrianised shopping street, but not so. No trouble sleeping with effective aircon and shutters on windows. Very helpful guy running this. Accommodated our request for an early check-in (14.30), recommended restaurants (we tried one - Pepe Nero - which served us very good pizzas and gave us a discount for being residents). Also explained how to get to ferries (5 mins walk) and only 10 mins walk from station, so ideal base for Cinque Terre. No breakfast facilities but discount vouchers were provided for a nearby cafe. We didn't try this as we were making early starts. Room really clean and comfortable, with simple, modern decor and good facilities, including kettle and tea/coffee and complimentary water.

SpainThe narrow shape of the apartment makes it difficult to accomodate a family. The bathroom was at the end and I had to go past the kids beds to get to it.
The apartment is on the central street and close to everything. Its well equipped and has everything you need including water, tea and biscuits. The host is a lovely person that did everything he can to assist us. He was very helpful with lots of info about the area. I recommend it as a short stay apartment in the heart of La Spezia.

United StatesNo Parking or Drop Off area. Very hard to find. Parking is far away.
After we drove around for 1/2 an hour trying to find a parking space, then the 15 minute walk from the nearest parking garage turned into an hour. (Elderly woman with bad bad knees and back. Lots of luggage ) Then the code for the door was not working. The Owner did answer the phone and assisted us. Once you made it inside and went up the many flights of stairs, then the lights went out in the stairwell and we were in total darkness. No motion detector until the ground floor I had to go down 4 flights of stairs in total darkness.The room was nice and clean.. I asked for a refund (but was rejected) when they explained that you can not drive up to the building and drop off a customer, it is located on a pedestrian only street. This is not a good choice for anyone who doesn’t want a long walk to your car.

LithuaniaIn the evening, after first 3-4 minutes of showering, hot water was gone, so I had to finish showering in freezing water. When drying my hair, the electricity went out. In the night, the room was freezing, but we found a heater, which helped a little. Also, keep in mind that the bed is short - if you are over ~180cm I would say it can be a bit uncomfortable to sleep. My boyfriend is 194cm tall and unfortunately his legs were hanging from the bed as its short.
Great location, clean, easy to find and the owner was nice.
