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.).

ItalyNothing. Just be aware of the small steep street to reach the venue. Actually a pleasure to go in an isolated spit after the stay in crowded Cefalù

United StatesThe drive up to the property is pretty treacherous. So if you’re not used to driving up narrow hills, it can be a bit scary.
Amazing view of Cefalu from the property, had a pool, and offered meals as well for a price.

United StatesThe road is windy to get up, but I didn’t have any issues with it and there is no other way to see the gorgeous view. There is a cab driver that can take you to Cefalù for 16 euro each way.
The view is unbeatable. There are nice areas by the pool and decks to chill out in. You can see sunrise and sunset from the overlook. The hospitality is also wonderful by the hosts.

GermanyA car is definitely an advantage, even if the drive up can be adventurous and sometimes nerve-wracking. But it is absolutely doable and well worth it. There is a great taxi service that takes you up and down.
Everyone was exceptional helpful, attentive and friendly and made our stay the highlight of our trip. The grounds are well maintained and designed with great attention to detail. The breakfast with a view of Cefalù is wonderful and delicious. You don't want to leave the resort, it's so beautiful and you feel so comfortable there. We really enjoyed our stay and could really switch off and unwind. We will definitely visit again!

FranceThe only downsides we found were that breakfast wasn't included (but Skyview is more like holiday apartments / rooms than a hotel or pension - and breakfast options are available). Also, the overal setup at Skyview is a little impersonal: we felt the effort put into branding took away from the warmth and otherwise amazing vibe you get from such beautiful surroundings. But that's really a question of personal taste.
The location of Skyview is exceptional, with astounding views on Cefalu and the bay. From what I read in other comments, some guests thought the steep drive up to the property was tough. My take is that it's really not a problem at all : the road is wide enough for cars to pass each other, and there are mirrors on every sharp bend. But hey, I'm not American ! :) Staff was extremely accommodating and quick to respond. The terraces and pool area are superb.

AustraliaThe road leading to Skyview Cefalu was a narrow, winding track . . . some would refer to as a road with several hair-pin bends and only room for one car going one way. Our manual, diesel car, stalled, several times due to the steep grade. Eventually we arrived at the property and were amazed by the stunning views of Cefalu. Consequently, the thought of driving into Cefalu the next day filled us with trepidation and the real possibility of damaging our hire car. It was thus decided to take a return taxi fare (one way 15 euros) since we needed to do some shopping. However, due to the time required for a taxi to arrive at our “Tibetan “ location we decided to take the risk and drive into the town, which, being downhill all the way was a little easier. Driving back was only accomplished by leaving the car in first gear and praying to god that there were very few cars on the road during our brief journey home. The major disadvantage with staying at this impressive property was its isolation from the town of Cefalu. Obtaining normal things such as milk, bread, butter and orange juice, etc were going to prove expensive to buy, especially if hiring a taxi to and from the town. The only irritating thing that occurred during our stay was the operation of a sensor light located outside the bathroom.
The rooms in the apartment were spacious, especially the large bedroom and the comfortable bed. There was sufficient wardrobe space and a large 4 seater couch, fridge and a wonderful gas cook top . . so much easier to operate than electricity. The bathroom was of a good size, with the shower providing plenty of hot water at good pressure. However, there needed to be more than one towel rack. In regard to the unit, apart from the table and four chairs and 4 seated sofa directly on the verandah outside our front door, there was also a small private terrace outside our bedroom containing a table and chairs and a 4 seated sofa.

United KingdomIt’s a shame there are no restaurants in walking distance - (the very steep windy road leading to the property would not be good to walk up / down!) we were aware of this before we booked though and it wasn’t a problem driving to dinner for 1 night.
Lovely comfortable room. We also had a kitchen area which was shared with one other room which I wasn’t expecting! Beautiful view and nice pool area.
