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.).

RomaniaThe humidity is pretty big in the apartment and it lacks more ways to ventilate it. The windows are not enough to have fully fresh air in a short amount of time. One more thing that could be improved, would be to replace the TV with a smart TV to access YouTube, Netflix etc.
It was a very nice place to stay, located very close to the Vatican and in approximately 30 min walking distance of many important attractions from Rome (Castle Saint Angelo, Fontana di Trevi, Pantheon, etc.). The host is very nice and friendly. The apartment was clean and had all the things that you would need to cook for yourself. Recommend it!

United KingdomFinding the place was not so easy as we got dropped off on main road and the appartment is in at the back of a sort of yard area off a side street.
For a +/- three night stay in Rome the location is excellent being a stones throw from the Vatican complex. The little appartment was clean and tidy with all the essentials

United KingdomWe were unsure where the apartment is as it wasn't very clear until Vinz sent the video. To be clear, it's on the rooftop. It's quite difficult to bring luggages up and down the stairs.
It's a cosy little apartment that has most necessities. It's very close to the Vatican and main attractions in Rome. Most shops are walking distance away.

Bosnia and HerzegovinaThe only thing that we didn't liked was the bar chairs, they make noise, and would advice to add some slippers because the entire apartment is covered in tiles
Very close to the st. Peter's Basilica. Our host Vinz was very helpful. And would advice future guests if you going to buy some groceries go to the other side towards the metro station (ottaviano) 🙂

SwitzerlandWe didn’t have internet at the first moment, since the host changed the Network name and we didn’t know (we were trying to connect from the information left behind the door). Afterward I managed to get in contact with the host that then informed about the new network & new password- but I would’ve been happier of this information was shared before. The TVs also didn’t connect to the internet, we had only the several Italian channels available, which were useless since we don’t speak Italian. Host was communicative and offered to come and fix the issue, but travelling with kids and in a short period, we decided to let it be… not that tragic 2 days without TV.
Well located, clean, small place but ok for a short stay (really near to the Vatican and good bus service). Breakfast was good, per person 1 coffee or tee, 1 juice and 1 Croissant - need to walk to the Cafe Bar in front of Vatican.

GermanyThe most disappointing part is the breakfast which is not a self-service. You need to walk some minutes to get you breakfast (1 Croissant, 1 Coffee and 1 jounce), which I really did not expected.
The room is highly facilitated and clean. The host is so friendly and helpful. He replaced the stove very fast after we found it brocken. You need to make a connection with him at least one day before check in.

United KingdomThe shower - took a while to get warm and would go really hot every minute or so. Don’t flush toilet or use sink etc before going in the shower as it will taken even longer to heat up. As far as I could tell, there was no way to open the shutters so a lack of natural light during the day but this didn’t matter too much since we were out for most of it. Some noise around but nothing compared to staying in the city centre.
Great location - 5 minutes to Vatican and St Peter’s, 20 minutes into city centre. Felt safe at the property with 4 locks on the door and a locked gate. Great kitchen facilities and comfortable room with fantastic air conditioning!

United StatesWe're not convinced the A/C was fully functioning during our stay. We stayed in several different places across Greece and Italy, but this was the only stay where we felt the room never cooled off below 78F. We weren't able to enjoy the breakfast included because of how far of a walk it was from the apartment and out of the way of our destinations both days. The shower was getting moldy and a little gross.
The apartment was cute and generally clean! Great location, especially if you are planning on visiting the Vatican. There were several good restaurants a stones throw away, as well as a couple grocery stores. The host was a good communicator.

Bright apartment. Bus stop 64 that takes you to centre is just across the road.Same with restaurant’s and super market. Very responsive host. (Fellow travellers: If you choose to arrive at apartment with public on first day with luggage, still go with bus 64 though you see option of train to Roma S.Pietro. Thats a regional train and quite full). Bus 64 outside the station is much easier.

CanadaThe bed looks like (but didn't) it will fall apart. The place is clean but needs a bit of a touch up for scuff marks, dust in corners, etc. The room seemed damp - I imagine it would be cool in the winter.
Breakfast was at a cafe a few blocks away. It included juice, a coffee (or tea) and a pastry. The staff were friendly. Location is great - so close to St. Peter's. Nice quiet neighbourhood. Grocery store up the hill. Communication with the host was easy. There is a small table outside - nice to sit and eat outdoors. The bathroom was bigger than many we'd used in Italy.
