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.).

BelgiumWe sadly got the only room with a bathroom outside (private one only for us, which is good) and was a little bit uncomfortable especially during the night. Matrass was a bit too hard.
Great location, amazing hostess,very cute interiors. Chiara is very caring and loves doing what she does. Place is very clean. Highly recommended:)

All the places we wanted to visit (Colliseum, Pantheon, Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain etc) were within walking distance. The Host was extremely helpful, providing a list of local restaurants to go to. Breakfast was good, with a plentiful supply of Cereal, Toast and Yoghurt, with Coffee and Juices also on hand.

CanadaOne improvement that could be made is the breakfast, it's functional but minimal. We thought it would be great if more fresh and less packaged food was made available.
Really great location, steps away from the Vatican and the Metro. There's also plenty of really good restaurants in the neighborhood which the host recommended to us. Chiara went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and give us suggestions on how to navigate the city. The AC worked perfectly and was a relief to have.

United KingdomIt may have been my mistake but I wasn’t aware of the shared kitchen area. Whilst this is a nice space and very useful to have - I do imagine if anyone is a very light sleeper then they could be disturbed if there’s any less considerate guests who come home late at night as the doors can be a little noisy.
Lovely room itself - very nice and contemporary. Appreciated the large mirror too as this can often be forgotten. Air con was the best we had throughout all of our Italy trip accommodation. Communication was great with host and also Marco helpfully gave us lots of recommendations.

United KingdomHad an amazing stay at Folia. Everything was as described, the room was comfortable and clean and all the little details had been thought of that make your stay that little bit nicer. Chiara's communication was fantastic and even reached out weeks in advance and tracked my flight to ensure I arrived without any issues. Location was perfect as I was seeing a football match at the Stadio Olimpico and was also only a 2min walk from Vatican City.

United StatesThe location was perfect for those wanting to spend plenty of time exploring the Vatican; just a ten minute walk and we were at St. Peter's Square. We were also only a couple minutes from a metro station, which made it easy to get to the rest of Rome as well. The room was comfy, and the air-conditioning well-appreciated.

We were at some meals and we were always very satisfied. In addition, Chiara had sent us a link for the shuttle from the airport and back before our departure. That helped us a lot.

Czech RepublicWe had an outstanding experience at Folia accommodation in Rome. Chiara is an incredibly friendly and helpful hostess. Upon arrival, she provides great restaurant recommendations, along with insightful tips on which landmarks to visit. The daily room cleaning service was immaculate. The shared kitchenette was well-equipped with a fridge, microwave, coffee maker, and toaster - everything you might need for a comfortable stay. In addition, Chiara regularly stocked the fridge with yogurts and juice. There was always a variety of breakfast options available, from bread to sweet pastries, ensuring a delightful start to our mornings. The property itself was clean, comfortable, and conveniently located. You simply walk out of the house, turn right, continue straight, and within ten minutes you will find yourself at St. Peter's Square. The Vatican Museums are even closer, roughly a 5-minute walk away. The metro station is also conveniently within a 5-minute walk, providing easy access to all parts of the city. I wholeheartedly recommend this accommodation. You will be as thrilled with your stay as we were. Best wishes, Jirka and Eliska
