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.).

IrelandThere was some noise by some other residents within the apartment buildings but not a major issue if you are only staying a few nights!!
Me and my friend booked this accommodation whilst we were visiting Cinque Terre. Its very near the train station and only a short walk into the main city centre. I cannot thank Cristina enough for all her help during our stay. One of our travelling party had to seek medical attention in La Spezia and Cristina really helped us in this regard. The whole checking in system & accompanying instructions were very easy. It was very handy to have our breakfast in the cafe literally around the corner. The apartments were very clean and tidy!

United KingdomNothing really
Bathroom is spacious, clean, and well equipped. Bed is comfortable. Room has lots of space and the air conditioning was just what we needed after walking around in the heat all day. The owner (Christina) left the fridge stocked with water and juice whenever she came around to fix the room up. The location is close to the main train station (La Spezia Centrale), and it is a very short walk to get to the city centre. Breakfast was tasty; you are provided with vouchers to get a coffee and pastry at a cafe 1 minute away. The pastries are all freshly baked

HungaryThe apartment is well located, so close to the train station as well as to the port. The room is well equipped we had a very nice stay there, and Cristina is the best host ever. We stayed in touch through the whole stay, she was helping to us, suggesting local restaurants to try and recommended trips. It was hard to say goodbye, but we are sure that once we will return back to La Spezia, we won’t choose any other place, only Mare dentro rooms. Good choice if you want to stay in this city and discover Cinque Terre.

Where to begin! This place exceeded my expectations. The owner is so nice and accommodating and she went above and beyond. She gave us directions, travel tips and restaurant recommendations without us even asking her. She even made reservations at a restaurant for us. The place is clean and has wifi. The location is good (under 10 min walk to the station). We were given vouchers for breakfast at the tabaggi closeby and the pistachio croissants were amazing! Highly recommend staying here! If we ever come back to la Spezia we would def stay here!

Slovakia- This is not the owner’s fault but the unit is noisy slightly. Or we just got unlucky with neighbors that were louder. First night next to us and second night above us. This probably can’t be influenced in a residential building, just happens.
+ Very new and modern room, basic but new, nice bathroom & toiletries + Very good communication with the owner, tips for restaurants in the area & for sightseeing. + Breakfast coupon for coffee & croissant were a nice touch

United Statesnothing, it was perfect!!
The room was super clean and comfortable, and it was in a PERFECT location. Everything was modern and very clean, the shower was great, they provided shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and everything you may need. Plus the water and snacks on arrival were very much appreciated. The host was really helpful and checked in on me to make sure I had everything I needed. She also gave me recommendations on places to eat. It was super easy to find and self check in and very convenient to access the train station. I highly recommend staying here if you want to go to Cinque Terre, because it’s very easy to get to all of the towns. As a solo female traveler, I really felt comfortable staying here. Plus it was nice to have the coupon for an Italian breakfast at the friendly cafe down the street. Overall it was a wonderful experience, I wish all of my stays could be as amazing as this one! 11/10!

AustraliaNothing. I had a lovely stay
The property is very close to La Spezia train station so an easy walk each morning to visit the villages of Cinque Terre. The room had air-conditioning, a comfortable bed and a nice hot shower. I had the breakfast option so each morning I had a voucher for an Italina breakfast at a nearby cafe of coffee and focaccia/croissant I didn't actually meet my host, everything was done on whatsapp but it went very smoothly. She offered to change my sheets and towels daily but as we know this is a waste of water I suggested to change once in my 4 night stay would be adequate

AustriaWe could hear a lot through the walls of the room, it was a bit noisy at times (also because of a building site next door, which can happen of course). Parking was a bit stressful.
Modern and clean rooms, just a short walk from the train station and the center of La Spezia. Breakfast is very authentic in a bar nearby. Cristiana is a really friendly and helpful host who gave us good tips for the area.

Germanythe breakfast coupon was valued only at 2.10 Euro which was out of my expetation. I understand we need to pay the difference if I order more expensive bread, however, this information could be provided by the host or the bakery in advance. However, the overall breakfast was great. the location was nice and the service was good in the bakery.
1. Friendly host: Cristiana is the best host during my stays in Italy. She provided all kinds of information in advance and contacted me via What's app and booking.com very early. She is very patient and replied to all my questions immediately. 2. the check-in was very nice and she helped me to find a perfect parking space just next to the apartment which I can kept watch for my car safely. 3. The room is very clean, with a small fridge we can store our food and the water, cookies were well prepared. Also, the shampoo and wash gels were all provided. 4. the location is perfect, short distance to train station, several supermarkets, downtown and the bakery (place for breakfast) is just in the corner. In addition, it is on the ground floor and easy to find a parking space.

SwedenSmall things, “Italian breakfast” for a Scandinavian person is not really a good match (I think I expected more). The toilet chair was lose. It’s a very strong smell from cleaning spray or something, not good for a person with migraine.
Cristiana (the owner) is the so sweet and kind. I was traveling alone and she helped me a lot and was so easy to “work” with. Walking distance to everything and Cristiana helped out with busses to different beach locations. The room seems very recently renovated, fresh & clean.
