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.).

New ZealandI am a very light sleeper and on a return visit would get a back room a bit further from the road.The room was pretty soundproof.
Gabriella,was a great host and came to fix a minor air-con problem and pick me up when I got lost on first day. A very comfortable bed and good shower.The location is great 5mins to station and close to centre. Breakfast was appreciated,and it was great having access to tea and coffee-cake at any time in the kitchen which makes this place a great place in my view..

United KingdomVery friendly guest house close to the railway station but within easy approx 10 minute walking of central Catania. The room was comfortable and quiet and the shower powerful and hot. Breakfast was a good choice of pastries, hard boiled eggs, yoghurt, fruit, juice and coffee. The woman who served breakfast was lovely and so was Gabriella who runs the guesthouse. We checked in early as the room was ready. Would stay here again and would recommend to friends.

CanadaThe area was close to the train station but a bit of a hike to the historic main square. I love to walk so this wasn’t a problem for me but it might be for others.
This small B&B was perfect for me. Communication was superb as I came after hours and had no trouble finding or accessing my room. Breakfast was delicious and my room was clean and comfortable. In hind sight I wish I was able to stay longer.

HungaryGabriella is the best host I have ever met in a B&B! She was super-friendly and helpful with everything, even kind enough to let me check out really late. The room with the two balconies (Bellini Suite) has wonderful view, the bed is so comfortable... The ladies at the breakfast were also really kind, and the room was cleaned perfectly every day.

SwitzerlandThe hotel is located just in front of the road, so I couls heard a bit the traffic during the night.
I stayed at B&B I puritani for a long weekend. The location was great, less than 5 min walking from the central train station and from the city center. The sfaff was reamly friendly, and useful in sharing tips and tricks on how to visit and how to move in Catania. The room was beautiful, very clean and the breakfast jus exellent.

BulgariaB&B Puritani is located very close to the city center and the main attractions. The connections to the airport and the train/bus station are very convenient. The rooms are clean and tidy, the breakfast is very good, but most of all the staff is very polite and friendly. I recommend B&B Puritani, especially for solo travellers, this is one of the best places to stay in Catania.
