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.).

South AfricaOur stay at this charming property was nothing short of magical. The hospitality was incredibly warm and genuine, yet wonderfully non-intrusive. From booking to departure, communication was clear and informative. The rooms were exceptionally comfortable, and the tranquil village provided a serene backdrop. We slept with our windows open every night and enjoyed the best sleep of our entire holiday. The amenities were top-notch, and the special breakfast was a delightful start to our days. During our two-night stay, we dined at both local restaurants in the small center—each offering a unique and delicious experience. If we had to choose, Leccio would be our preference for its slightly better service and English-speaking friendliness. We highly recommend taking a walk to the little chapel on the open stretch of grass for a breathtaking sunrise. Exploring the tiny town at different times of the day allowed us to truly 'feel' its essence and refresh our souls. Surprisingly, this quiet, quaint town became the highlight of our vacation. We left feeling rejuvenated and with a deep appreciation for this special place and its wonderful hosts. Thank you Michelle and Sara

United StatesWe loved everything about the Dimora delle Muse, Especially, Michele and Sara who created a special Tuscany Villa experience. The rooms were elegant, beautiful and Sara's home made pastries with a great breakfast simply made you feel like you were tasting a part of "La Dolce Vita". A must stay in Tuscany!!!

RomaniaWe stayed for one night only, but this place is an absolute gem. Sara and Michele are two of the most friendly hosts you'll ever find anywhere on this planet (we should know...) They took care of everything we needed, reservations for restaurants, wineries - all before even meeting us. Exceptional breakfast, prepared in house by Sara, very tasty pastries you won't find anywhere else. Highly recommended, especially since Sant'Angelo in Colle is a charming little village with a lot of character, and very close to a lot of places you might want to visit in Tuscany.

Michele and Sara were incredible hosts. They had just renovated the property in 2018. Shower and room was much larger than what you would normally find in Italy. Sara's home cooking for breakfast was out of this world great.

United StatesDimora delle Muse is a beautifully decorated inn in a quaint Tuscany town. The rooms are well-decorated with amenities and a plus, beautiful paintings to view every day. Parking our car at the villa was not an issue even with the small streets. Michele, who was a hotel concierge before, was the most responsive in replying to our many emails in planning our Italy visit. He suggested things to see, cities and wineries to visit, and excellent regional dinner recommendations. Michele scheduled our appointments and dinner reservations. This helped us very much as it is sometimes difficult to contact businesses from the US. Excellent restaurants that they suggested were short walks from the villa. His suggestions made our day trips much easier to plan. Michele always texted us the Google map location with links to where we were visiting. The inn costs are extremely reasonable and even more so that morning breakfast is included. Sarah is a wonderful baker and talented chef. Having breakfast in the cozy courtyard was a highlight to start the morning. Coming back every afternoon to relax in the beautiful courtyard, drink wine, and converse with the owners was the perfect way to wind down after a busy day. Sarah and Michele were the most gracious and sincere hosts we have experienced in our travels overseas and probably back in the US. Our stay at Della delle Muse and visit to the Tuscany region were the highlight of our trip to Italy. If you want to relax and enjoy Tuscany stay here. The high ratings are well deserved. It will be a stay you will remember.
