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.).

AustraliaWould have been nice if the owner, when handing over the keys, had explained a few things about the apartment. Turned out there was a trick to getting the oven and the clothes washing machine to start. When we got the washing machine running, thanks to their intervention by WhatsApp messages, it ran for hours - maybe time for a new machine? They were, all in all, very helpful. And otherwise, all good.
Superb apartment on what has to be the most beautiful little street in all of Syracusa, including all of the old city on the island of Ortigia. We loved it. Great kitchen, great eating area right beside two windows with small porches overlooking the street. Quiet street, some people talking of course as they passed along, but pedestrian only, so no motor bikes etc. We could do our laundry and hang it out over the street just like everyone else does along the street. Quality of light coming into the apartment was superb. Ortigia itself is fantastic. Busy, yes, isn't all of Italy now?, but not overly busy. On the weekend, there was an influx of Italian tourists to bask in the outdoors restaurants along the water's edge, I think mostly from the rest of Syracusa that is inland a bit. That was all. This apartment is right in the middle, next to one of the oldest streets in the old Jewish Quarter of the city, with small, family-run great "wine bar" Taverna Guidecca, and small eateries spilling out on to the pavement of the very narrow "main" street. A delight.

CanadaIf you're North American and have rented a car, you may find the parking and the distance to the apartment difficult, especially with heavy luggage (15 euro per day). We attempted to drop off the cases closer to the apartment, but traffic was incredible on the narrow streets. The breaker went numerous times cutting electricity. Likely an easy fix.
The apartment is on a lovely, narrow street rife with pretty plants. It's clean, home-like, and spacious. The linens and towels are of good quality and there are extra pillows if you prefer. The location is great with restaurants, cafes, and shopping in the neighborhood. Karin was patient, welcoming, and very accomodating.

The location of the apartment was fantastic, close to great restaurants, the old town, a supermarket and a beautiful swimming spot. We loved our stay in Ortigia and wish we could have stayed longer.

El SalvadorWe love the apartment and the location. High ceiling, two balconies, charming street, fully equipped, new bathroom, two double beds, A/C. Also a very attentive host, she met us at the time that we proposed, got us a reserve parking inside the old town, and even have some colors for our daughters. The baby crib was also a plus. We really enjoyed our stayed in Syracuse and we recommend this apartment.

AustraliaKarin’s apartment is gorgeous; it is very comfortable and well equipped, but more than that it really does have a lovely feel and is decorated so nicely, with special touches to make it more comfortable and feel like home. It is in a very picturesque street and a great central location in Ortigia. Karin met us there on arrival and was very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. We really loved staying at her apartment and would love to come back one day.
