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.).

The hosts are very friendly and helpful and are ready to welcome you and share useful information to make your stay even better.

AlbaniaNothing, everything was perfect.
The location was excellent near stazione centrale and walkable around the centre. The room was huge, very clean and comfortable and we slept very well. Our room had a nice little balcony with seaview. The breakfast was delicious,with freshly squeezed orange juice and perfectly cooked scrambled eggs. But mostly outstanding was the hospitality of the staff, they even gave us goods tips about places to eat and let us leave our bag even after checkout.

ThailandPp and the grim atmosphere around the station, something about Catania not to do with the property. Some 15 mins walk to the Duomo Piazza, which we traded wifh being near the station instead.
Very spacious room, more than we needed. Good location, about 5-6 mins walk from the train station. Got all facilities we needed, and lift is available. Very kind owner even cooked us eggs for breakfast upon request.

IsraelThere was a lot of fiddling around with a bunch of keys ! The door to the room didn't shut unless you locked it with a key, even from the inside, which was a little annoying - especially as the external private bathroom was across the corridor but also needed a key to open and lock yourself in.
Friendly staff, comfy bed and had everything we needed. The room was on a big road but you couldn't hear anything because of the double glazed doors out to the balcony. Free parking. The room had a sea view and was only a short walk into town.

United KingdomThe room was lovely, well decorated and spacious. We liked that each room had colour theme. We were in yellow 💛. The hosts were friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was made fresh when you got up. Could choose from sweet, coffee, croissant to salty which was eggs with or without sausage. My daughter and I were given lists of restaurants, shops and things to do by WhatsApp and could contact our English speaking check in host this way too if we had any questions. The location was great, close to transport and walking distance to the centre of Catania.

SwitzerlandSoon as I booked the B&B staff was extremely helpful, through phone. Had a prompt pick up from the airport. Loved the fact that it is a family run business, felt like home from home. The location of the property is perfect, few minutes from the train & bus station, 15 min from the City center. I had an exceptional breakfast every morning, options are endless, cooked salty or sweet breakfast, fruits, dairy products, orange juice, coffee, and almost every morning a little extra treat for guests. I booked a packed lunch one day.. it was more than enough, freshly made sandwiches fruit, fruit juice, water included. The room was very spacious with a private bathroom, tv, and fridge, it was very clean, with fresh towels and toiletries, bottled water provided almost every day. Highly recommended!

PolandI think everything was awesome, especially for this price and location. Staff was really helpful, what do I need more :)
Perfect location, near a railway station, next to the sea. Awesome staff, very warm and helpful people. We could leave our baggages before checking in, they've showed us everything and really tried to explain every detail. Beautiful ceilings and nice breakfast. And they've given us mimosas for Women's Day! So heartwarming :) We've stayed there for only one night and then traveled a bit to other cities, and this place was the best, we definitely would come back.
