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.).

Hong KongGiorgio is a great host, he made sure to say a few words with us every morning, making sure we had everything we needed for the day without being imposing. The apartment was a studio that had everything we could ask for, with a spacious bathroom that wasn't shown in the photographs. Giorgio should remedy that.

Germany-
The property consists of 4 rental apartments and is very well located in the heart of Stresa. Around are plenty of bars, cafes and restaurant as well as small shops or supermarkets. So everything can easily discovered and reached by feet. We stayed in the apartment on the top floor for 3 nights. The apartment was very clean and everything looked freshly renovated. The apartment has everything that is needed, including a small kitchen and a capsule coffee machine. What is very comfortable is that you can enter the property and the apartment via PIN code, so you don’t need to carry keys / cards with you, that could get lost. Last but not least, it is a family runned business. Giorgio and his family were so kind and friendly! This would have deserved an extra point in the rating.

GermanyNo parking close to the villa. Giorgio recommended two public parking lots to us 5 minutes away, No bigger problem, had to carry our luggage. Anyway you can`t have it all, staying in the pedestrian zone of the old town and to get rid of the car.
The location was great in the backyard of the main building. Very quiet and new Appartement. Communication was easy in advance for checkin. The owner of Garden Lodge, Giorgio, recommended restaurants in between walking distance, which we liked very much, especially Trattoria Due Piccioni. Best croissants and sweets ever at pasticceria Marcolini, which we could enjoy at the balcony. Ferry harbour to the Borromeen Islands 5 minutes walk only. Thank you Giorgio and family, definitely will stay again.

United StatesThere is nothing I would change or add. I was wondering exactly how the parking would work, but we easily found free parking one block away and rolled our bags to the apartment. We didn’t use the car for the duration of our stay.
This lovely apartment is just perfect. It is new, clean, stylish, awesome location the central old section of Stresa and yet quiet and private. It really is ideal! Giorgio, the gist is the kindest person and extremely attentive and very personable. There is not one thing I would change about the property or our 3 day experience! My husband and I will be back as it was really well suited for 2 people.
