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.).

FranceIt can be slightly noisy. But only if you are very sensitive to it. We didn't mind.
Great stay - perfectly located in Ortigia. The host is very responsive and has an app with the best tips of restaurants, places to go, everything you need to know. Both apartments I rented were charming, in a very good state, perfectly clean.

AustraliaWhile it didn't bother us at all, the stairs are narrow and steep, and it would be a struggle with heavy luggage.
The room was very quiet, but close to everything. The roof terrace was a nice extra. The room had everything you need.

IrelandEverything was great!!
The place is amazing! We were in Sicily already for 1 week and passed by a few other places, but this one was by far the best! It is small, but very cosy and for a couple is great! Usually I dont see this in reviews but I consider very important: the shower is amazing, the toilet very clean, great water pressure! Marco was so receptive, friendly and helpful!! Always available! We liked so much our stay that we decided to extend, of course because Ortigia is amazing but also because we were in a great place! Grazie mille Marco!

CanadaNothing - if you arrive by car, keep in mind the appartment is about 900m away from where car can park since it’s a restricted area, but this was not a problem for us.
Loved it ! Check in and out was super easy (no need to wait for anyone), location was right in the earth of the old town, appartment was super cozy, some snacks were waiting for us when we arrived. Would recommend. The app with recommandations was a nice touch !

United KingdomAll good. The stairs were a bit difficult to carry up luggage.
Excellent location. There are plenty of restaurants nearby. Sightseeing was very easy from the apartment. It was good to watch the sunsets. Very clean and comfy. The terrace was lovely, especially as we had booked both rooms, so we had the terrace to ourselves. Concise and clear instructions for entry to the apartments. The app was extremely useful. The map showed our location when we were out and about. We booked a taxi from the recommended service and it was very reliable and cheaper than from a taxi rank.

Lovely, simple little apartment, with a kitchenette should you want to self cater, and a balcony overlooking the street. Simply furnished, with a comfortable bed. There is a private terrace on the roof, with rooftop views. Although situated at the far end of Ortigia, it is a short walk to the Duomo and town center, from where you can get a hop on hop off tourist bus that circulates Siracusa and takes you to the historic sites. Our host, Marco, was very helpful and quick to respond on WhatsApp.
