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.).

PolandAt our last day there was power outage in the city, so there was no electricity and water in the house, air conditioning didn't work. So I would recommend the owner to have a portable power station ( as restaurants, shops and other houses had) for this kind of emergencies. There was a € 20 cleaning fee per stay included in the price, but the room wasn't cleaned on a daily basis. The weather was windy, so there were some leaves and sand in the room.
The housing is very nice and modern, high-quality furniture. Good shampoo with a great smell, lotion, very clean and soft towels. The bed is wide and the mattress is so comfortable. 🥰 For €20, we used the laundry service and were very satisfied, everything was clean and smelled good. At our request, hosts brought us dishes and cutlery, which gave us the opportunity to have nice breakfasts on the terrace. We enjoyed it so much. Good coffee. Great tea selection. The fridge is small, but we were able to fit there everything we needed. This place is at 5-10 walking distance to the bus stop and 15-20 min walk to the beach. There is a grocery shop and nice restaurants in the area. The hosts are nice and helpful 😊 We enjoyed our stay a lot! If not the last day without water and electricity I would rate our experience 10/10 ♥️ (the owner offered some refund for this inconvenience)

I like everything about this place. It’s beautiful, pristine, perfect location, warm, friendly genuine hosts. From the room, terrace and garden to the amenities ( high quality bath products and teas) you would never know that you are a few steps from the Main Street. It’s so quiet and peaceful. You feel like you’re in your own private villa in Salina. This is my visits trip to this island and this is my place from now on.

Italy•I’m not sure if that’s the case in all of the rooms (5 total?) but ours had doors connecting to another room - which basically can turn your overall ideal stay into a hell if you’re unlucky and have disrespectful neighbours watching a TV all night long or yelling at 2am which happened during our stay… Even though we had new neighbours on the last night that were rather quiet we were woken up by their quiet talks at night since the door is so thin it’s like having someone in your room anyway. A totally unnecessary add on to the overall perfect rooms that I would get rid of right away. Leaving early in the morning we had to be extra quiet and try not to wake up our neighbours too. •No daily cleaning which was quite surprising - would love to at least have the floor sweep or the floor mat exchanged since there’s no facilities to clean anything yourself (3 nights stay)
We loved our beautiful room with a terrace located in a peaceful place only a minute away from the main quiet street of Malfa. The interior is modern and minimal, whereas the exterior is a calm oasis you never want to leave. Clean spacious room, good AC, coffee machine, perfect location with stunning views, nice and helpful host, very comfortable bed, great outdoors furniture.

NetherlandsNothing :) Vico San Lorenzo is perfect. Keep it up guys!
A charming Italian casa within close proximity to our favorite beach and with an unbeatable price/value ratio. Giuseppe and his mom are kind, warm, and really helpful. Honestly, no complaints about this place. We would gladly love to return for a longer stay!! To just explore the island more or simply enjoy the quiet Italian village life :) p.s. what you see on the internet is indeed how it looks - the place looks straight out of interior magazine catalogue, we're even inspired to remodel our bathroom to look like theirs! Really impeccable taste - kudos to whoever designed and curated the place.

United StatesThe service. We were passed around to multiple people via WhatsApp and then finally told we will do self check in with very little details of which room was ours. We found an open door and went in. Turns out, we were in the wrong room and while on a long boat tour, they informed us they need to move out stuff next door. They did the moving. There are important logistics that they don’t tell you: 1. You MUST PREBOOK the TAXI for your return to Santa marina ahead of time. They didn’t tell us this and we missed our ferry. 2. Which room is yours? A number? A letter? Nothing. On a positive note, Guissepi’s mother washed our clothes which was a big help Grazie Moma. 🙏 The Net: having a good property is nice, but getting the logistics clear is important for guests on holiday. Salina is beautiful.
Very nice, new property in a good location. Modern and comfortable as pictured.

ItalyWhat we found to be quite unsatisfactory was the complete lack of privacy. Furthermore, a door separates the two connected studios, which proves to be rather bothersome. Conversations and even snoring from neighboring units were clearly audible during the night, rendering the door entirely ineffective. Replacing it with a wall would serve a more practical purpose. The kitchen displays signs of age and emits an unpleasant odor that has persisted since our arrival. While it remains unclear whether the cleaning agents used are the cause, the scent has been noticeably potent since day one. Additionally, cleanliness was lacking, as a crumbs were found on the shelves. A significant disappointment arose from the standard of the cleaning service, or rather, its absence. Regrettably, there was no proactive maintenance. Should you desire a change of sheets and towels during your stay, you are required to make a specific request. In our view, when guests are paying €235 per night for a 7-night stay, such a service should be provided without necessitating individual prompting.
The location is exceptionally convenient, situated within comfortable walking distance of all amenities. Nestled amidst nature, it offers a splendid view of the mountains. The room provides a considerable level of comfort, and the bathroom boasts an elegant shower design. One of the highlights was the charming patio, an ideal spot for unwinding after a day at the beach or indulging in a dinner. However, it's worth noting that while the patio is separated from the adjacent studio by a few plants, it lacks complete privacy.
