How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Littlle slow responses through booking msgs, maybe because of language barrier, but in the end everything went very well 😊
It’s very charming, nicely decorated apartment, very spacious- big bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and one more room to hangout. Everything was perfectly clean, you’ll get one big and one small towell. Coffee maker was nice detail so I could start a day with a coffee in the garden 😊 it’s close to the public transport so you are in centre in 10-15min. It’s in very nice and quiet neighborhood.

It is a 30 to 40 minutes walk to the centre wich we took since the weather was nice and we didn't mind walking but some people might appreciate an accommodation a bit closer to the centre. By public transport, it is a tiny bit faster, about 20 to 25 minutes.
The apartment was very big, clean and in a rather quiet neighbourhood. The owner which gave us the keys when we arrived was very nice. Especially the air conditioning in the bedroom was appreciated. The apartment had everything we needed and was furnished with handpicked items in a 1950s style, very lovely.

Comfortable and charming house with a nice little garden. The apartment is well equipped and clean. We spent two nights here with our dogs. Free parking on the street. It is easy to find a parking space in front of the house. Ponte Vecchio is 30-40 minutes on foot, 10 minutes by bus. Pet friendly

We really enjoyed the peaceful and relaxed neighborhood, but if you can't live without a choice of multiple restaurants just downstairs this may not be your preferred place. For everyone else, looking for a little more space and not afraid to walk a bit - a wholehearted recommendation.
Perfect place to spend a few days in Firenze if you like traveling alternatively..This is no luxury hotel with room service but a loving appartment beautifully arranged by caring host Francesca, City center is a 15-20min walk away along the Arno river. Appartment is in a quiet road. Parking the car for free in the street was no problem for us at all.

A very welcoming and kind host. Quiet and close enough to the tram that it makes going into the city centre quick and easy. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a nice meal at home if you need a break from the city meals.

The bed was quite firm and there was only 1 set of pillows. Some communication regarding accessing the property would have been helpful, however, we also neglected messaging our host about this, so we're also partly to blame!
The location of the property to the river and then the tram station was brilliant, the layout of the apartment and the space in each room was amazing, the aircon and the good pressure shower were well-loved after a hot day exploring Florence! We also loved the funky decor, it added character and made it feel homely. Parking was so easy!! Loads of onstreet parking immediately around the property! Took away so much stress for us!

It was very cold in a house (about 16-18 degrees) and we weren't able to change temperature. All radiators were cold all 3 days (they were warm only at arrival time), AC didn't work for heating. No parking on premises, it's just street parking. No possibility to pay by card, cash only.
Generally it's good place to stay, but not at cold period.
