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 StatesThere were no complaints about anything.....we were very happy with the B&B Evelyn.
our room was on the 2nd floor.....it had a veranda overlooking the street. Breakfast was on the 3rd floor which had a large outdoor room with tables and chairs. The location was perfect and near the taxi area and entrance to the town. Evelyn was right there helping us to the B&B and she took care of getting the driver to take us to the airport. She packed us a beautiful care package for our breakfast the day we had to leave for the airport early in the morning.

AustraliaA shelf in the shower would be helpful.
It was so good to have a live in host, when so many bnbs operate remotely with messages & instructions. We were met on our arrival from the bus and escorted to our bnb by Evelyne, who gave us tips and guidance along the way. Our room was huge and all our needs catered for. The breakfast was excellent and Evelyne helped us with planning our drive trip to Mt Etna. This was a genuine bnb experience in the heart of the old city of Taormina and I highly recommend it to everyone. Evelyn is an energetic and hard working host who helps you have the best stay.

United StatesAll good
The B&B is lovely, conveniently located but a bit apart from the hustle bustle. Parking is down the hill from the town with a free shuttle; although parking is paid by the hour it was much easier than maneuvering through the streets of some of the towns we visited. Evelyne met us at the shuttle and gave us a thorough tour on our way to the B&B. She was a wonderful hostess and served a very nice breakfast. We had a delightful stay

United StatesEvelyne’s B&B is soooooo comfortable and well-run. It’s centrally-located, and Evelyne made parking our car for our stay so easy for us. The room itself was spacious, is nicely-decorated, and offered everything we needed for a very pleasant stay. Evelyne herself was helpful, kind, and very witty…..we laughed a lot with her. And breakfast was good, another excellent reason to stay at Evelyne’s B&B.

Evelyne was absolutely lovely. She went out of her way to make our stay enjoyable. She was friendly and attentive, provided heaps of Information about Taormina, and helped us select a restaurant for a special dinner. After 20 years of travelling together she was the best host we’ve ever had. She wouldn’t even let us carry our bags upstairs. Breakfast was beautiful presented, with lots of options.

PolandIf I were to nitpick, there was no good place to hang a wet towel which could become an issue during a longer stay. Also there was a step between bathroom and the living room which made me almost trip a few times. (Maybe a reminder on the bathroom doors would help).
Apartment was great, located near the city center, Evelyne was a very welcoming host providing extra information about the neighborhood and serving excellent breakfast on a terrace. Bed was very comfortable and window blinds ensured uninterrupted sleep.

United KingdomThe property was wonderful, but the highlight was the host / property owner, Evelyne. Staring from meeting me at the station to showing me around Taormina and even lending me her jacket for a tour to Etna, Evelyne went above and beyond to make my stay extra memorable! She made me feel so welcome and looked after, I really appreciated it. Other highlights included the breakfast spread, the view from the terrace where breakfast was served, and location of the property in the heart of the town. My single room was clean, spacious and very comfortable. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone!

AustraliaWow, what a great host is Evelyne, from the moment we arrived in Taormina and she met us in the town entrance and helped with our bags. Everything was made easy and pleasant. Evelyne really enjoys being a host and goes out of her way to please you. The breakfasts on the rooftop terrace were fabulous and it was here that she helped us meet other guests, share experiences and have a laugh. She was very helpful with itineraries, things to see etc and the breakfasts couldnt have been more fun. She even took us and another guest to the beach for a swim which was also fantastic. Great location near the centre of Taormina but it was the host that made this so memorable. Thanks Evelyne.
