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.).

SloveniaSuperb sea view directly from the room and from enormous terrace our room included. Sunrises were really something special. Also view of Etna from road-side of the house. Free parking on the premises was extremely helpful. Situated short drive from lots east Etna hikes which are not too touristy (Rifugio Citelli is a great starting point for instance). Breakfast room (and the whole property actually) is really nice and well thought-through. Breakfast was tasty and sufficient, though more on the sweet side. Our host Lorena was very friendly and accommodating. Great middle point to explore east coast towns.

United KingdomThere isnt anything I can say which I didnt like.
We stayed here for one night before heading to Etna the next morning which is under an hour away (45 mins away). There seemed to be ample parking. The room was clean and basic. The mattress was comfortable enough (subjective) and they had an extra pillow and blanket. The breakfast was continental and did the job. Lorena, who was the host, was excellent. She answered any questions we had and was very quick to respond. She was very friendly and flexible as she served breakfast early as we had an early start. Great view from the breakfast area.

NetherlandsLocation was hard to find for me. Communication was pretty tough. TIP: if a client arrives, please ask him/her to pay for the room directly. So not afterwards.
Nice garden, nice room, excellent breakfast, friendly staff. As I thought I paid the room in advance (I always do), I left without the payment. The owner solved it in a friendly and decent way (payment by PayPal).

United KingdomMy goodness, what a view! It was fun, in a very loose sense of the word, getting there via all those one-car-wide, winding roads, but the view was worth it. I do not believe we could have been any closer to the volcano of Etna unless we wanted to live on the actual volcano, which I very much did not. The hotel’s terrace was where we spent most of our time, but the rooms had all the expected facilities. One could argue that it was a no-frills kind of accommodation, and that perhaps things like the mini-fridge, that could have been working a bit better, were letting it down, but did I mention the view? One had no time to complain. There was the view to admire. Also, we absolutely stuffed ourselves with the breakfast: fruits, fruit salad, pastries, cold plate, cereals, yoghurt - as non-Italians, we still cannot subscribe to the “caffè e cornetto” mini-breakfasts, this was much closer to what we’d expect to eat in the morning. Word of caution-cash payment expected. We did not realise.

MaltaThe adjoining room to the main bedroom had no A/C. And the bunk bed was rather unsteady and not so comfy.. Breakfast was very basic and poor. Very much sweet based. No toast or bread as such.
The place is beautiful and peaceful stunning views. A good place to stay if you really want to zone out. You really must have a car to get here. Especially if you intend to go elsewhere. If you are good with basic and want to be off the beaten track this is the place for you.
