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.).

United KingdomThere is nothing that we didn't like - as we said an idyllic setting
This is an idyllic location in a mountain village overlooking the Comino valley with panoramic views of valleys and mountains. The accommodation over 2 floors is exceptional with matching facilities. A wonderful base to explore the national park. It was lovely to be welcomed and greeted so warmly - Thank you for such a comfortable stay.

IrelandExcellent host, Cesidio, and so very helpful and informative of his village and local area. Visited his Winery, too; sampled the Maturano Grape, a unique grape to boot and managed to purchase and transfer some of it home. Bedroom absolutely charming, as was showering facilities. Facilities in room for some catering and fresh fruit provided on arrival, along with wine to purchase... Overall, absolutely delighted with my three night-stay. The village is about a twenty minute drive from Monte Cassino...

IrelandAbsolutely nothing...it rained briefly one day, but the rain was needed due to the recent droughts.
Albergo Diffuso Sotto Le Stelle Picinisco exceeded my expectations. My family are from Picinisco and I had not been there since I was a child. I was absolutely blown away by the Village and that's mainly down to one man Cesidio di Ciacca and his family. They have re-vitalised their historical village and turned it into a welcoming, peaceful retreat, surrounded by beauty, elegance and literally, a "home from home". It's USP is the community feel, you must integrate with your surroundings, with stunning panoramic views, vast vineyards, local produce, friendly local people, who speak 'your' language. Sheer elegance and sophistication. HIGHLY RECOMMEND 5*

United KingdomA beautiful town, with a beautiful room - hotel staff and owners were extremely friendly and helpful. They arranged a restaurant for us, and gave us complimentary wine and chocolates. The room is one of many isolated apartments within a larger complex, it felt very private and special. Picinisco (and Lazio/Molise in general) are well worth a visit.

United KingdomI could not find fault with anything at the property.
The breakfast was supplied by a local inn, which a 5 minute walk away, upon arriving at the property, we where offered a upgrade to a better room in the main part of the apartment block which had wi-fi, but as there were two bedrooms and for personnel reasons three bedrooms were required, so the kind offer was declined.As this was a family hotel, the family were extremely friendly and the staff likewise, i would recommend this hotel.

United StatesNot a thing! It was great!!!
After spending six days exploring the Amalfi coast, we ended up in Salerno with two days left before our flight back to the US out of Rome. we had planned to go to Rome, but be realized the G20 summit was there (end of Oct. 2021) and were worried that we would have issues with traffic, closings, protests, etc. We found a hike that looked interesting in the Abruzzo national park so we decided to drive that way on a whim. So very glad we did! The trees were at peak color and the drive to Pescasseroli was gorgeous. After having lunch there, we decided to get a hotel room. Nope...too late! Nothing was available. After spending an hour or more trying to find a place to stay on a number of sites, we found one available room at Sotto Le Stelle in Pisinisco (not to far as the crow flies, but an hour's drive down the mountain). We got there just after a beautiful sunset. Cesidio met us in the piazza and directed us to our room...okay, not really a room, but an entire suite! The place was huge! There was a lovely large bedroom with a very comfortable king size bed, a sitting area, a kitchenette and and well-appointed beautiful bathroom with a huge shower! The large balcony overlooked the entire valley. It was perfect! As there are only three restaurants in town, Cesidio made sure we had reservations so we wouldn't miss a meal. The next day, he helped us plan a hike nearby and even went with us to the local grocery to get a picnic lunch. Unfortunately, we had to be back in Rome that night for an early morning flight, so we couldn't stay longer! Amazing!
