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.).

GermanyBecause of the really good location (central) you can hear everything outside in the night. Though it is calm 12am-7am. The 'thing' in the bathroom, probably the water pump, was really loud. The fact, that a day before our check in we were relocated. The place is really nice and comfy, but the fact, that it had to be changed and you don't know in the end what you're doing to get was disturbing. We were on our way with two small children and everything has to be planned and such a relocation because of overbooking is just not professional. Also the fact, that we had to be cancelled via booking so that we could pay in the Apartments direct and not via booking is confusing and irritating.
The location and the size of the room. It was really big, comfortable, and freshly renovated.

GermanyNothing dramatic, this is a good place to stay at to discover Ortigia - the only points to note: While being well isolated to the outside, you could hear a lot of noise from the inside. The bathroom had a milk glass door, so if someone went to the bathroom at night, it lit up the whole room.
Great location in the old city of Ortigia, surprisingly well isolated to street noise despite being very central.

United StatesIt was a little noisy at night until the cafe downstairs closed for the evening, but that was only until about 10:30 or so, so not too late at all. In the morning there was some construction work on the piazza area that started around 6:00, but clearly not the fault of the B&B, and it’s the trade-off for being in such a central location. The bathroom had a bit of a strong sewer/sulphur smell in the mornings, though not so much at other times of day. The A/C unit in the main bedroom wouldn’t come on after the first day, but that could’ve been user error.
The location was great - central in Ortigia and steps (literally) from cafes, restaurants and pastry shops! Breakfast was very good. A sheet of paper with the options was left in our room each afternoon and we selected what we wanted and the quantity, and the time, and breakfast was delivered on a cart to our room. The room was bright with large windows allowing lots of natural light. we had a 3 person room which was actually 2 rooms plus the bathroom. The main bedroom was spacious and had a closet, table and A/C Heater. The other room had a single bed, a table with 3 chairs, the mini fridge and it’s own A/C and Heater.

IrelandOur shower over flowed every time we used it so it was not good. But this could easily be fixed.
Amazing location so close to everything and right in the middle of Ortigia. The apartment looks over a pretty Piazza and we had 2 balconies to overlook the square and the busy side street. The room was lovely exaclty like the pictures. Breakfast had lots of options which was served to you at your chosen time in your room. They held onto our bags until we were ready to catch our train at 3pm which was very handy.

CanadaThe desk person was miffed when we asked for both beds to be made up, yet I code the specifically because it had a second bed.
It’s right in the middle of a lovely piazza of Ortigia. It’s above a restaurant so that could bother some people but I’m a fan of earplugs so iit was fine. If they had found me a silent room I would not have faced the piazza and the beautiful fountain.
