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.).

United KingdomNothing, it was great.
Rafael and Angelica are absolutely perfect hosts. I can’t say enough good things about them. The apartment was absolutely spotless and the grounds are a slice of paradise away from the busy town of Riva. We walked to the centre in around 20 mins, and by car in about five. This location was great for us - close to the mountains and the lake! The icing on the cake for us was how dog friendly the place is. We have a nervous rescue dog and he was very happy with his new dog friends and the security of the gardens! A great stay and we will definitely return.

IsraelPerfect location - few minutes walk/bike ride/car from caffes, restaurants, city center. The pool and gardens are beautiful, quite and relaxing with sunbeds as well as corners with tables to sit and eat outside. The apartment was specially designed, spacious and had anything we needed for cooking our meals. The kids loved to run around and the games outside.

GermanyNothing, the Villa Angelica exceeded our expectations.
The caretaker of the property was a man named Rafael and from the moment we arrived until check out he was extremely friendly, careing and helpful. We were traveling as a larger family with our two dogs and Rafael was accomodating and helpful, he went above and beyond our expectations to be sure we were settled in and everyone was comfortable. The villa is authentic and relaxing, we left feeling refreshed and really enjoyed our stay at Villa Angelica.

GermanyThe villa is a wonderful building, restored with love for details and staying true to its architecture and surroundings. There is also a huge garden with olive trees and bee hives. By bike, one needs only 10 minutes to get to the center of Riva. Lago di Tenno is only 10 km away. Very important: the dogs are not only allowed by they are welcome and this makes a huge difference :)

CanadaThe villa is beautiful and especially the historic garden is spectacular. A truly unique place to stay close to the heart of Riva. The apartment we had was quite large, about 150 m2 if I recall correctly (2 bedroom, 2 bathroom, a large living room and kitchen). The villa is 15 minutes on foot from Riva, but there are simple bikes to take you into town. Raffael was always available and helpful. thank you for having us as guests!

NetherlandsStayed Longer :)
Property is located right above the city about 1 kilometer from the lake our view from the back of the villa was not disturbed my houses but a view of the majestic mountains absolutely stunning! We were greeted by the owner who showed us the facilities, and how various utilities worked in the room. We stayed in a suite that had been built in the 1300s, so use of the air-conditioning was not needed. The kitchen was fully stocked with sharp knifes, no stick pans and big sized drinking glasses, I mention this because our other travels left us often to having to shop at local stores to acquire these simple necessities. The bed was very cozy, and our room was quiet. As far as the grounds, the villa is situated on 5 acres of land, all well manicured with beautiful sculptures and flowering plants. We had the pool to ourselves as well as the sauna with a view of the mountains. We will definitely visit again. I must mention you can pre-order Tiramisù that his mother makes herself (a must-have) you can grab vine or prosecco 24hs, and very dog friendly as well! Thank you, Rafael!

The antique rooms with some original wall paintings were tastfully furnished with eye for details. The exotische garden with superb views was a pleasure to walk in. Our dog could walk free in the garden, and just outside was a river he could swim. The staff was very friendly and helpfull. We would like to come back some time.
