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.).

LithuaniaAll was perfect.
Amazing place, a flat is in the city center (this area one of the best in Palermo). Flat was cozy and clean. We really liked the atmosphere, owner was very helpful and pleasant, provided insights, maps, recommendations (such as where to eat, what to visit and etc.). Fridge was full of food, on one table was waiting a cake, on the other - bottle of wine. Overall, I would highly recommend to stay here!

AustraliaThere wasn’t anything we didn’t like!
We loved everything about Marcello’s place! The bed was comfortable, bathroom was spacious, and the apartment had everything we needed for a 3 night stay in Palermo. We instantly felt at home, not only because of how comfortable the apartment is, but also because Marcello was the most thoughtful and generous host we had while in Italy! Marcello went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and more! The location was perfect - an easy walk (or speedy scooter ride) to the historical city centre. Highly recommend this accomodation!!

Marcello was one of the best hosts we had, nothing was ever a problem! He let us store our luggage before checking in so we could go explore Sicily, gave us a map and great sightseeing recommendations and helped with dinner reservations. The apartment was spacious, stylish, clean and quiet. The location is very central and convenient. We had everything we could possibly need for our stay with great amenities and Marcello had fully stocked the fridge with yogurts, fruit, juice, milk etc. He even had left a cake for us! We were in a pickle and needed some documents printed which he also helped with. His communication is friendly, quick and easy. I highly recommend a stay here, you won't be disappointed!

ThailandWe are so grateful for our experience with Marcello's flat! This was definitely a 11/10 experience! The flat is so conveniently located in the city center close to Garibaldi place, and there's plenty of bus stops, restaurants all around and 24/24 supermarket. It's super safe. The apartment is very well decorated and nicely furnished, quite spacious for the available space, perfectly clean and quiet. The bed was comfortable and everything was provided (extra pillows, covers...). We had such a lovely time in Palermo and grateful for having found such a great place to stay. Last but not least Marcello has been an incredible host! He is very friendly, accommodating and so helpful! The fridge was full, there was food for breakfast, he offered to change our towels at our mid-stay and he provided us with lots of information to find our way around Palermo (and shared great addresses for Sicilian food 😍). Would definitely recommend him and his place to anyone! Thanks again! 😊🙏

The apartment is comfortable and has a lot of character. The location is great - Palermo's swankiest suburb and walking distance to most of the main attractions. And the TV has Chromecast (Marcello, you should highlight this! I loved it.) But, above all, Marcello is a fantastic host. He is very passionate about his city and will give you great advice on how to best enjoy your time there. Grazie mille, Marcello!

ItalyNothing, the whole experience was perfect!
First of all we were upgraded for free to the Superior apartment that was absolutely great! The location is very convenient, right in the middle of one of the most vibrant neighboroods in town. The apartment itself it's precious, very well decorated, with high standard furniture and delicious details plus everything you could possibly need for enjoying your experience. If the place was a hidden gem, the real discover was the host! Marcello is such a nice, friendly and generous guy who was very attentive and caring to us since the real first moment we booked the apartment. His personal welcome was a real something, and his tips a proper gift! Speaking of gifts, Marcello made us a cake for breakfast (which was not included) and the apartment was packed with food! What can I say more? Please don't book the apartment, otherwise I will not find it available for my next trip over.

PolandAbsolutely nothing, everything was perfect 🤗
The apartment was very clean and comfortable. The location is wonderful, 2 minutes to the bus station, from where you can get to each part of the city including the mondello beach ⛱️ (30 minutes). 10 minutes to a grocery store. Despite the apartment is near to main square the apartment is so quiet. The owner is so kind and is the best I have ever seen. He met us, and allowed to make check in even earlier then it was in offer. He will help you to reach the apartment and will make you a guide about what you should visit in the Palermo. Summarizing, I strongly recommend you this apartment in case you would like to visit Palermo 😇 We were so satisfied. Thank you very much for perfect accomodation.

United Stateseverything was perfect.
We are so lucky we got to spend a few days at Marcello’s beautiful apartment. Everything people have said about him are absolutely true. He is the VERY BEST host! So kind and always ready to help. Check in was super easy and he gave us personalized recommendations on what to do that were spot on. The apartment had amenities most 4 star hotels wouldn’t provide and his homemade muffins were so delicious. The design of the apartment provided comfort (I wish he would design my home!) and the location was perfect. It was on a quiet, safe street that was just a short walk away from lots of restaurants and attractions. If I could give our stay 100 stars I would! It was one of our favorite stays ever. Thank you Marcello for everything!! Hope to see you again!

United KingdomThe place is small, especially the kitchen area. It was just right for us, but probably not very suitable for someone who would plan to cook all their meals.
The loft is modern and stylish, very thoughfully equipped and is located in a trendy neigbourhood of Palermo with lots of bars and restaurants. Our host Marcello really went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable, accommodating us arriving and leaving at late hours, providing generous breakfast and lots of great advice!
