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 unit is in a great location, it's spacious and clean. Bed was comfortable and shower was excellent. Response was always prompt when I had questions via Whatsapp. The hosts are very welcoming and went out of their way to make certain my stay was enjoyable. Guiseppe was incredibly kind in giving me a tour of their facility and other area, and in sharing his knowledge of Matera. Staying at this location exceeded my every expectation and made my time in magical Matera a highlight of my vacation.

GermanyThat we could only stay one night :)
There's a lot of options to stay in/among the sassi in Matera, and we decided on this place as we did want to stay in an authentic building, without the cons of being in an actual cave. Our room, actually three spacious rooms, were very comfortable with a lot of special and functional design touches. Tiziana was very responsive before we arrived, and Giuseppe gave us a warm welcome and a tour of their passion project. It was nice to be able to leave our luggage after check-out. It's one of the more easily accessible accommodation options in the sassi area, maybe 200m walk from the main piazza. We had slightly more than carry-on size luggage and no problem carrying them up and down.

The host met us at the bus stop to take us personally to the place and have time to introduce us to the history of the city. That was a great first impression. She had prepared a map of the city with the places we should visit, a list of restaurants she recommended, and a surprise that made us fall in love with Matera. The apartment was cozy, refined to the smallest detail. Thank you Tiziana, it was unforgettable.

FranceIt’s hard to follow the google map if you walk and carry a heavy suitcase.
It is near to everywhere and was surprise when they show us a tour about the lounge and about how its existed years ago and about the ancient well existing within the area. The room is clean and new with full of facility and nice outdoor area.

IcelandWe made this booking very last minute and the Giuseppe was so gracious to meet us and explain everything about the accommodation and Matera. He provided a 45 minute "tour" of the cave and cistern that are part of the hotel. He provided us with information on where to eat as well as the best way to spend our next day exploring in order to get the most out of our short time in Matera. He really went above and beyond and made our stay there very memorable. The location is perfect, right in the old town and close to good restaurants. The room itself was very spacious, clean, comfortable and quiet. We were traveling with our 11 y.o. and 14 y.o. kids and they enjoyed their single beds and space. The internet worked well and the bathroom was nice and big. There is no door for the bathroom but it downstairs so it is still very private. The parking was only a 5 minute walk away and was €20 for the night (we put a few things in a backpack and left the luggage in the car as there are a lot of stairs to deal with if you are rolling a suitcase around). Would highly recommend this place for a stay in Matera.

FinlandAmazing stay at Matera. Room was very clean, bed super comfortable. Location good. Giuseppe & Tiziana were perfect hosts. Giuseppe tells a lot of Materas history and I was able to visit the watertank, which was located under the house. They also give me a map and list of places where to visit in Matera. That helps a lot to navigate in the sassi area. So thankful about that and everything else.
