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 KingdomThe host was very nice and flexible with check-in and helped us with parking. He gave us tips about local restaurants and how to access touristic attractions. The included breakfast consists of your choice of pastries + drink from a local pastry shop and is delicious and a great chance to try the local sweets! It will definitely fill you up.

GermanyThe host was very hospitable during our stay, even offering to take us around by car. The accomodation at time of writing also included vouchers which could be used for breakfast at Cafe Elisir just nearby, be wary though as while it is nice, it is very sweet. The accomodation was nice and well situated to access both Agrigento and sites to the west such as Scala dei Turchi.

United StatesThe internet was low to no internet during the evenings when we needed it most to plan the following leg of our journey.
Most everything was well, host Giovanni was exceptional, walked us around the village showing us where to eat and reccommended things to see. Though we share a sea of language separation between us, we managed quite well…. The B&B approach was fullfilled with a voucher hand written, taken to Cafe Elisir. The choice of a food item and a beverage was sufficient to start the day and bypass lunch in favor of an early dinner, though it is a challenge to find a location for early dinner open and most open after 7pm. Generally a quiet location and managed to catch up on much needed sleep after departing Catania.

United KingdomThere was a bed that fits two people, however the bedsheets barely fit the bed (two joined small beds) , there was a coffee machine but I wasn't shown how to use it.
The hosts offered to transport us for the closest nearby city (Agrigento) to the village for a small collaboration of 10 Euros (Porto Empedocle) Also they were communicative and friendly. - They provided us with the bus times, which was good to be able to move around!

SlovakiaEverything was awesome!!! Giovanni was the kindest, most helpful host we have ever had. He picked us up at the Valley of Temples, then proceeded to show us around town, took us to the opening of the Andrea Camilleri culture center, drove us to see the Scala de'i Turchi, came to pick us up from the beach in the afternoon, supplied us with a hydrating cream for our sunburn and once again drove us to the Agrigento train station in the morning. For two days worth of chaffeuring us around, he named the price of 25€. The food places he recommended have also proven to be excellent (and cheap!). Even though he doesn't speak English (he speak Google translate fluently, though), the communication was effortless. The rooms are nice and clean, too :)

United KingdomWe liked everything but some instructions to use the coffee machine would have helped in advance.
Giovanni is a very good host. He made us comfortable and gave us lots of useful information about the area. We really enjoyed the free gelato instead of the breakfast as we were leaving very early next day. The property is next to the main high street of Porto Empedocle with free parking nearby but it is very quiet. There are good restaurants (Il Ritrovo), gelateria and mini supermarket nearby. It is perfect place to visit Valley of Temples and Stairs of the Turks.

GermanyVery nice place in the middle of the city. The rooms were cleaned and spacious. There was not only the air conditioning but also a cold water in the fridge waiting for as in this very hot day. The host was very helpful and the communication was just great. For the breakfast we have been sent to one small coffee place and could chose one piece of bread/sweet bread and coffee. Was ok but nothing special The parking is just in the front of the main doors or around 5 min away from the B&B. There is also a kitchen where you can eat, cook, make coffee. In the room there is a fridge and the bigger one is in the kitchen. The place is bear the Agrigento so it's perfect stop.
