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.).

I wanted also to mention the kindness of our hosts, that allowed us an early check-in + extended our check-out and the kind hearted Moreno - who helped us in a time of need! 100% recommend a stay here.

AustriaVery beautiful location surrounded by Tuscan hills and farmland. Swift and very helpful communication with the host Lucia. Another co-host, Fabiana, lives on site and speaks several languages and shares all sorts of advise and suggestions for discovering the area. The apartment was very clean and equipped with a full kitchen and a bathroom with modern appliances. Fireplace in the kitchen was a nice touch. The bed was very comfortable. WiFi works fine in all locations. The large garden has a nice terrace with spectacular views to hilltop castles and the Orcia river valley. Perfect place to relax.

GermanyThe rooms are not well insulated. During our 5 night stay here, multiple groups checked in and out of the rooms above or next to us and we could hear them very clearly every night. Of course, complete silence is hard to achieve at a place with multiple guests/rooms, but having to listen to somebody else's small kid screaming/crying at night really diminishes the remote, quiet experience of this otherwise astonishing farm stay. Not sure the owners can do much about this so won't hold it against them!
Stunning location in the Tuscan countryside with sweeping views over the valley and orchards. Waking up every day to this view was truly a wonderful experience. The rooms are very well-kept but still have a traditional feel to them. Very comfy and warm. The host family is also very friendly and helpful and though we didn't need much help, I would feel comfortable asking them and knowing they'd do their best to help us out. The icing on the cake was the 2 really cute, friendly cats on the property as both me and my partner are big animal lovers.

United StatesIt was genuine small family run farm with stunning views of the Val D'Orcia. It came with the most friendly greeter - a cat named Luigi. Fabiana was communicative and offered several suggestions of things to do. Her wine tasting tours was our favorite and the most fun we have had. Overall it was excellent value. The nets covering the windows was a bonus so we could leave our windows open and not have to worry about mosquitoes. The Kitchen was large and clean and had everything you would need.

The views from the terrace are stunning and give you a perfect glimpse of Tuscany. The place is well connected to beautiful towns such as Montalcino, Montepulciano, Pienza,Siena. If you’re fond of good wine, there are a lot of options for wine tasting. We’ve been very happy during our stay and we highly recommended it :-)

PolandLovely place, highly recommend if you are looking for a simple, well-equipped accommodation for your holiday located in the heard of Val d'Orcia. Away from the crowded roads, with beautiful view and super friendly hosts (Fabiana & Lucia), very welcoming, the apartment was beautiful, clean, and had everything we could wish for. The views from the terrace are fantastic! Be sure to try the wine tasting recommended by Fabiana. The hosts produce wine and olive oil which you can buy. The large common terrace has incredible views and makes for a great place to talk with other guests if you so desire or you can have dinner. The windows had screens so you could leave open for cool breezes. San Quirico d'Orcia is 4 km by car. There are several wineries and beautiful towns nearby too.

The host family are adorable and Lucia speaks great English. The views are amazing and we even had a view from our apartment. It was very clean, bed comfortable and they provided coffee, milk, candy, snacks, water, wine and beer upon arrival. The kitchen was well equipped. There is a dual shower. It’s a large apartment with a comfortable sofa and large dining table for meals and playing games. The large deck has incredible views and makes for a great place to talk with other guests if you so desire or you can have dinner. It was nice having a washing machine. The windows had screens (rare) so you could leave open for cool breezes. The little town is 12 minutes by car and has a small grocer, restaurants and the walled city. There are several wineries nearby too.

GermanyWe fully enjoyed the silence at this place and the cozy room. The view from the terrace is amazing and you can also start hiking from there. There are also some cute cats to cuddle with. The room and the small kitchen were equipped with everything you need, even some food. It has been very clean and we felt like in a little mountain hut, because it was so silent that we could only hear nature outside. It’s close to a cute little village and not far away from Pienza as well. We loved it and would definitely recommend staying there! ☀️
