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.).

RomaniaPlease be aware that the clasic double room (not standard room, not king/superior room) does not show accurate photos of the bathroom. The bathroom is way smaller than in photos, the shower is smaller and also the sink is very very small, not even space to deposit the hand soap ( see photos of the real bathroom). When I contacted the property with this matter, they gaslighted me telling me that I have booked a classic and those photos are for superior room, even though they have uploaded inaccurate photos for the room.
Nice location, clean, elevator.

FranceBathroom is a bit small - especially lavabo. Also night tables look very fancy but too small, I could not put anything, like my phone, on it, especially a big light lamp on it. But every considered, we were very satisfied.
Super clean. Perfect location - closed to everything, port, bus station, restaurants, cafe.... The front desk is closed between 12 to 4pm but Michela explained it beforehand and there was no problem. She was exptremely efficient in giving us information we needed.

FinlandSoundproofing, but the other visitors were calm and quiet so there was no problem. We didn't know how to turn the towel warmer-thing off so it was kind of warm in the bathroom all the time, but we didn't mind
Location was perfect, the lady at the reception was so nice and spoke a little bit of our language! Rooms are new, clean and very modern, no complaints. Air condition worked, there was a mini fridge and some coffee for us which was very nice. Would recommend!

NetherlandsI acknowledge it is a room system, rather than normal 7/24 hotel service. It could have been better if there is a luggage storage option.
The rooms are big, modern, fresh. The location is great; walking distance to everywhere. The staff is amazing, so helpful. I definitely recommend. If I come to La Spezia again, I would stay here. I was concerned if I hear the noises from other rooms, but the isolation is so good. The photos are accurate.

South AfricaHonestly, I cannot fault them on anything. It's a central place so you can easily reach pharmacies, restaurants, the metro etc.
The staff were professional and friendly. I think we were welcomed by Michela, if my memory serves me right. She was an exceptional receptionist! Always happy to help. She even gave us a rundown of how we would need to access the ferries to go to Portofino and The Cinque Terre. At the end, she even greeted us in Afrikaans. (I am South African) I was really impressed. It's the little things that can make a stay wonderful! All of our needs were met in terms of the look and feel of the accommodation. The rooms were cleaned every day. Definitely a place I already miss and will return to if I travel to Italy again.

United KingdomThe apartments are on the 3rd floor of an apartment block. The front door from the pavement is shared for the whole block and not an obvious find with just a small sign on the door plate. The shared lobby and stairs were quite tired and scruffy but once through the apartments’ reception door it was lovely inside
Apartment was in a good location and Mikeala on reception was so lovely and very helpful for any local information. Rooms were very spacious and spotlessly clean with maid service, very central to amazing restaurants (Cafe Giobatta, excellent home made pasta dishes and cakes) and the ferry service to Cinque Terre

Michela was so warm and helpful and couldn’t do enough to help you. The room including the bathroom were excellent and everything was very clean. It was close to the ferries, cafes, Restaurants and shops. A bit of a walk to the train station but manageable.
