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.).

United KingdomThere were a number of steps up to the property and even more up to the sun terrace. This might be a problem for someone who is not physically active or able.
The property was well equipped having everything we needed for our stay. It was clean and comfortable. Shops for provisions were a short walk away and there were lots of restaurants, bistros and cafes nearby.

United KingdomShower was functional and we personally had no issues however worth noting that the pressure is a little weak and the shower space is simply in the corner of the bathroom with a curtain around it, therefore the space is a little tight.
Great central location in Ortigia. The host was really helpful with check-in instructions and throughout our stay. Nice sized apartment with two lovely little balconies overlooking the street. The washing machine was an added bonus. Really quiet during the night and the air conditioning was perfect given the hot august weather. Overall we really enjoyed our time here and would recommend to anyone who wants a functional and clean base for exploring Ortigia.

United KingdomThe apartment was in need of maintenance which had been overlooked in order to keep back to back bookings. Perhaps an option could be to reserve some days as not available for bookings in order to be able to maintain a maintenance schedule and to be able to do regular inspections to find out what needs fixing before it is notified by a guest. I arrived to find some chunks of paint from the ceiling on the bathroom floor. The ceiling in the bathroom had water damage from a previous leak and still had to be redecorated and mended after fixing the source of the leak. The metal bed frame was broken and the bed was very creaky. This improved somewhat after the owner came to tighten the bolts but the bed was actually broken at one its legs so it's likely to happen again if not replaced or professionally repaired. There were other bits needing general maintenance that I discussed with the owner including a broken kitchen cupboard handle, a damaged electric socket and a broken toilet flush button and general redecoration and finishing still to be done around the wall mounted oven and around the glass windows to the balconies. The high table and stools provided were somewhat impractical and I didn't use them. This could be a great place after some maintenance and investing in some new furniture but for now it has room for improvement.
I stayed in Casa Mirabella (the apartment with the beige walls as opposed to the blue ones). Great location in the old town centre of Ortigia. The apartment is spacious, with a living room kitchen open space, a bedroom and a bathroom. Kitchen is well stocked with plates, pots and pans. There are some nice toiletries in the bathroom. Air conditioning works well and kept the apartment cool. The host was responsive and nice and came to the flat promptly to try and fix a problem with the bed when I contacted him.
