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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomFinding the location and being let in! It took a little while, but once we were in, staff were friendly. No toilet roll holder. No towel holders. No coat racks/hooks or shelving.
Nice host, good facilities and very close to amenities and Santa Maria Novella Train Station. Clean and nice room with table and chairs as well as a sofa.

United States of AmericaBig issue for us was the elevator the elevator can only hold two people no luggage. The worst part would be if someone did not close the doors to the elevator and it will not move so if you want to take the elevator, you will not be able to, and that’s what happens to me in my mother who is unable to walk upstairs. I had to find the elevator to the floor that the doors were not closed so there might be people that are very inconsiderate. It was a big deal for us.
Great location around the corner from train station and many great historic sites

SwitzerlandThey state that they do check in from 10-20hs and that there is staff there to receive you but we arrived at 18hs and nobody was there. They provide you with a code to enter the facilities. in the 3 nights 4 days we stayed there, we only saw 1 person from the staff as we were leaving.
Location is good, but since is near the train station and crossing the street there are trash containers at 5.30am in the morning these were collected, a lot of people screaming in the streets at night etc. Although the place states they have sound proof facilities you can hear both from the street and from the facilities hall every time other gests get in and out or talk in the halls.

Self check in was a great option for us arriving late, staff communicated well via booking.com and gave clear instructions. We loved the location and it was easy to get around. Air con was a bonus too!

AustraliaNothing we didn’t like. There was some antisocial behaviour on the street of this accomodation but it didn’t impact our stay.
The hosts allowed us to drop our luggage off earlier than check-in. The room is walking distance from the train station which is helpful and 5-10 mins to some sites. The bed was comfortable and overall stay was nice. Would stay here again!

AustraliaI think with a bit more thought, they could make this a very comfortable room, a bit of reorganising and the addition of a couch would be nice. The room is certainly big enough.
Location was great. Very central to many attractions and only a short walk to the train and bus stations. The room was reasonably large too.

North MacedoniaUpon making the reservation it was said that check in is from 14-20h, unfortunately our bus was 2h late and we arrived later then predicted. When we arrived at the property no one was there to open the door or let us in. We were waiting outside the apartment for 30minutes and called the owner non stop during that period without getting a call back. We even had to contact customer service to help us because we started to get stressed that we won’t be able to get into our room. After many missed calls the owner finally picked up and wasn’t pleasant at all. Even though we were 2h late (not our fault), we still came im time for check in. After a stressful half an hour the host told us he would send us the door code so we can get in. I suggest the host next time to send the code before something like this happens again. If you try to make it a self check in what’s the point of not giving us the code 24h before we arrive, or even 2h before we arrive.

CanadaThe location is both a pro and a con, it is right next to the train station which is very convenient if you are traveling by train, but at night this neighbourhood did not feel the safest, but we had no issues. Also, the building has a gate that you could not enter without a code, so that felt comforting. The walk to the Duomo was not far whatsoever, maybe 5-10 minutes. Lots of restaurants and little shops to discover along the way.
The staff was so kind, we arrived before check in and they allowed us to leave our bags there and when we got back at the end of the day, our stuff was neatly and carefully placed inside our room already waiting for us. We were super touched by this gesture. The staff even kindly offered us water and suggestions for activities as well as directions and a map. They took their time with us which was really appreciated. The room was decently sized and a lot of storage for luggage and personal items. Nice and clean bathroom. View was also nice. There is also an elevator in the building which was very convenient!

United States of AmericaCommunication with the host (only available via WhatsApp) was quite difficult with long response times, unclear answers, and many unanswered questions. This led to quite a lot of stress on my end as I had some issues with my reservation. There were signs in the BnB mentioning free breakfast at another hotel down the street, but when we went to that hotel, they said they ended their partnership with the BnB many months ago.
The room was as expected and was quite clean. Check-in was easy to figure out, and the location in relation to the train station was stellar.
