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.).

It was very clean and tidy. A kitchen area was available which was very useful, including a fridge. The swimming pool was a real bonus and very clean.

United KingdomMosquitoes. They love me. The feeling is not mutual. Didn't seem to affect any other guests though so very much a niche issue.
I cannot rate this property highly enough. We could tell from the pictures that the apartment would be attractive but we dd not expect how spacious it was - our daughter had a mini-suite all of her own. The decor was stylish in a really original style - it felt as though a lot of love had gone into the choices made. The facilities were excellent - better than we have at home in some cases (on-tap sparkling water) and the kitchen in particular was really well-set up - perfect for someone who loves cooking. There were even really good recycling faculties which was great to see. Views incredible - pool sparking clean and a really good size. We didn't have the breakfast but I could see what was laid out for other guests and it looked delicious. Our hosts were extremely welcoming and we felt very much at home - seeing dogs welcomed so warmly was a bonus. Alba itself is beautiful and a really vibrant place - you could find lots of sights to see if that is your bag (or just stuff yourselves with coffee and filled croissants which is more my style).

United KingdomProperty is in beautiful location. The gardens are lovely. The pool is great, good size and spotlessly clean. The apartment was also beautifully clean and very comfortable with good facilities. Emanulea and Claudio are great hosts, they are so friendly and helpful, they are just lovely people. We also loved their dog Betty. :)

United StatesThe doors are thin so noise in the common area of other neighbors can be easily heard, if they’re loud.
Close to Alba, but still outside of town and away from the noise. Nicely designed—contemporary, clean aesthetic with touches of antique/vintage items, e.g doors. Bed was very comfortable.

Finlandeverything was perfect!
We had the most perfect stay at Casa Silvana. Claudio & Maria are wonderful hosts and helped us with everything we needed, such as booking wine tasting and taxis and giving restaurant recommendations. The place itself is so beautiful with interesting details all around. Wonderful garden to relax in and have Maria’s delicious breakfast, with amazing views over the vineyards. The location is also perfect - just minutes away from Alba center with car, but very peaceful and relaxing. Pool area is also super nice and spacious. Book this place, you won’t regret it! We will surely be back. :)

United KingdomOur apartment consisted of the living quarters with a mezzanine bedroom above, accessed by a metal staircase. The stairs were a little awkward and designed with a lip at the rear of each step whcih it was too easy to catch your heel on.
Beautiful conversion of old rural building in a great location in the hills on the edge of Alba. Excellent vey clean swimming pool with wonderful views of the surroundings. Apartment was very spacious with comfy beds, two bathrooms and well furnished kitchen. The furnishings throughout were comfortable and good quality. Effective air-con and good wifi. Plenty of parking, although the access road quite steep and narrow , if that bothers you. The hosts were extremely pleasant and welcoming.

SwitzerlandClaudio is top. He will make you feel like home. He upgraded us to large room simply because there was availability. Breakfast is rich and tasty with selection of cold cuts, cheeses, fruits, cakes, amazing coffee, jam and we had fresh peach juice made from peaches from Claudio’s garden. We had breakfast in the garden every day looking at the wine yards. House has a very distinct feel, with attention to details, very clean and the collection of books give it a unique feel. Bathroom is huge and very clean with marble chosen for sink and other decors. Bedroom was huge with old refurbished wooden doors. Overall a distinct look with a modern touch. Loved it! Swimming pool area is very clean and we had great time using it. Incredible to have this in the middle of Piedmont. Bed is super comfortable and you’ll sleep like a baby especially if you top up with some wine :) This is the place to stay if you want to relax somewhere quiet from the tourist cohorts but still close to Piedmont’s best. Claudio also can help with tips on where to eat, drink or do wine tasting.
