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 KingdomWe walked from the train station to the apartment- follow Lorenza’s instructions up gentle slopes, not google maps - this takes you up steep steps🤣 good job we are fit!) Stunning views of the sea and village, just loved coming back from our days hiking to it. Apartment was spacious and well equipped - breakfast (croissant, focaccia & yogurt) was supplied fresh each day and there was a lovely coffee machine. I loved opening the window and looking down on the lemon tree. It was a delight looking at how every little space of terrace is maximised. Beautiful smelling laundry!

PortugalEverything. The room was super clean, comfortable and equipped with an amazing view. The location was also great, just followed Lorenza’s instruction and we were able to find it quite easily. Lorenza is the sweetest, she brought us breakfast every day with a little cute note and was very responsive and helpful.

United StatesNothing to change! However, make sure you follow the host instructions for reaching the property and NOT Google maps. Recommend a backpack over a rolling luggage as it is at the top of the hill.
The view from Venere room is spectacular with a private balcony and 180 degree view of water and city. Spacious room and bathroom with a coffee maker and mini fridge, and strong water pressure in the shower. The host even left breakfast at the door in the morning!

The saying WE LUCKED OUT goes for us! My girlfriend and I LOVED Casa Lorenza! PERFECT location to see the water from a SUPER CUTE patio area! The property was immaculate and adorned with original art of the owner. Very tasteful! The owner was so attentive to ANYTHING we needed and helpful in every way! I cannot say enough for how much we loved our stay - and after visiting all the other Cinque Terre villages, we wish we would have stayed here the entire time! Please Please Please stay here for the whole time you are in the area. It is worth it! You can visit the other villages easily by train so as not to miss anything!

Lorenza was kind and thoughtful. She met me at the train station and helped me with my luggage. She also walked and helped me when I left. She brought breakfast items in the morning. Love my room with a balcony with a table and chairs. As a traveler, I appreciated the clothesline so I could hang out personal items I hand-washed. Lorenza is a lovely lady. Thank you.

SwedenVery clean room with a breathtaking view over the sea. Also very good location, just a few minutes away from the train station and the city center. Lorenza, the host, was super sweet and really went the extra mile to make us feel welcome by meeting us in the parking lot, driving our luggage and even bringing breakfast in the morning. An amazing stay that I would definitely recommend.

United StatesLorenza is friendly, enthusiastic and helpful. She even brings a light breakfast — croissant, focaccia, yogurt and fruit in the morning! Everything is spotless in the room and it has everything you would hope to have, including a mini fridge. The views from Casa Lorenza of Riomaggiore are amazing. I had to pry myself out of the room to go explore!

Lorenza the owner was so warm and welcoming. Every morning she bought us a delicious breakfast of fresh croissants and yoghurt. The room was charming and very clean. It was uphill to get there but worth it. Great views, I would definitely stay there again.

United KingdomNothing it was AMAZING!
Our lovely host warmly welcomed us at the train station. She kindly had our luggage transported to the property, before taking us on a short guided tour of the village detailing key amenities and attractions. When arriving at the property, she provided us with a complimentary beverage which we enjoyed from the terrace providing stunning panoramic views. The house itself is spacious, clean, comfortable and well equipped. Also, the location of the property is excellent, being close to the main street with quick access to shops, bars, restaurants, laundrette and public transport. Each morning when we woke, our host would kindly leave for us some fresh pastries, bread and yoghurts. These were delicious. Overall, we had a wonderful stay at this property and it is mainly due to the attentive nature of our host. Thank you for making our trip to the Cinque Terre a lovely lasting memory.

AustraliaAs with everywhere in Cinque Terre, it's not the most disability friendly (lots of steep hills and stairs) so would not be suitable for wheelchairs or people with limited mobility
The property was beautiful and clean and warm. Lorenza and her husband were so kind and took wonderful care of us. We had our own access to the property and could come and go as we pleased but Lorenza was always around if we needed her. She cleaned our room while we were out which we did not expect but really appreciated. She met us at the train and walked us to the property so we would not get lost. She provided us with a welcome drink and fresh focaccia and pastries in the mornings as a free treat. Would definitely recommend. I will be staying here if I ever come back to Cinque Terre
