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.).

NetherlandsThe parking costs were extremely high because the discount code did not work for us. Also, the apartment is on the seventh floor without elevator. So think of what you bring upstairs.
Really nicely decorated and spacious apartment with a nice rooftop terrace. You will have everything you need and the location is also perfect to dock es Genova by foot. Our dog also loved it.

New ZealandAs everyone says...the stairs! The stairs are no joke. It made going out to explore unmotivating because you knew you had to climb the stairs again lol. The cameras...which I can tell are purely for security reasons but still a little strange to have one inside (just not used to that where I'm from).
We liked the location of the property, very central to what we required. Two bedrooms was great. A washing machine/dryer. Balcony. Full kitchen and dishwasher. A quirky and interesting place

AustraliaFor a taller person the roof is rather low in some areas of the house such as the second bedroom and the kitchen, which was a little inconvenient according to my husband who is 1,90m
The apartment is right on the edge of the old town and gives easy access to cafes, restaurants and of course the old town to browse. It’s spacious, well equipped and has air conditioning in every room which is a bonus for an apartment under the roof. The apartment is on the 7th floor which is a bit of a hike since there is no elevator, but it is well worth the effort.

United StatesThe ONLY critique would be the 7 flights of stairs you have to hike to get to the room. However it was worth the extra effort!
The layout and architectural features of the apartment were unique/interesting yet super comfortable and warm. Loved that there was air conditioning!!!

The owner Enrico replied immediately and solved the problem when the neighbours appartment had a waterpipe problem (which could have affected the whole building) on a Sunday.

Germanynothing to say
Comfortable and very pleasant apartment and very well located to discover the historical center of the beautiful city of Genova. Beautifully equipped kitchen (with dishwasher and washing machine), spacious bathroom with large shower. The port is very close and there are cafes, restaurants, supermarkets right next door, as well as a subway station; this is very convenient to reach the train station and discover the Cinque Terre by train (which is the best). Beautiful terrace with trees and a view of the sea that allows you to relax. Very friendly host, available and receptive. There is no elevator as it is indicated but it is easy to get up with practice and the building has a lot of charm.

Romania- nothing here.
We were two families with kids staying here for a city break and had a wonderful time. The location is just great, walking distance from Aquarium, Galata Museum and historical center. But apart from this, the actual time spent in the apartment in the mornings and evenings was great. A lot of details scattered throughout the house to be observed, from pictures and design objects to plants. Then there were books for the kids and us to discover and a bunch of classical board games to have fun with. It is a house where you don't get bored, all these things around you sparkle conversations and imagination.

United StatesAs others have also said, the stairs. If you have a lot of luggage (like we did) or are only staying for a short time (like we did), this may not be the ideal place. It was exhausting to make it up all 7 flights with the luggage.
The apartment is truly one-of-a-kind. The design and space is super cool! Check-in/check-out were super easy and Enrico was great at communicating with us. The balcony and view towards the harbor was also great! We only stayed one day and were largely just exploring Genova, so didn't spend much time in the apartment. But it was conveniently located to the main parts of the city and wasn't too far from the train station.

Germany1. The countless stairs, better you travel light. 2. Although the apartment was beautiful and had top notch equipment, it all seemed a bit too private to me (like AirBnB sometimes): It felt like invading someone’s home in a way …
Location is very central - if you want to be at Porto Antico. Tasteful interior.
