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.).

The room was very comfortable and clean. It was also a good size. Breakfast was nice and it was pleasant sitting out on the balcony. The host was very helpful and kind. The location of the room was perfect and as there is very little traffic it is quiet.

ItalyThe curtain over the entrance door to our room didn't fully block out the bright light from the terrace, but that's a very minor consideration.
This fabulous structure is owned and run by Margherita, who's energy, enthusiasm and attentiveness are outstanding. Gradelle di San Nicola is perfectly placed for access to the center, it is comfortable, characteristic and charming. The breakfast is superb. Margherita also gave us excellent tips on a local guide (well worth doing) and where to eat in the evening. All round fantastic !

We loved our stay here! We were greeted (early) with a glass of wine and local food. The room was spacious and very comfortable. The terrace was a bonus and each morning Dominica served us the most AMAZING breakfast, offering a doggy bag for the amount we could not eat. The property is in the middle of the Sassi but has access to a vehicular road.

South KoreaThe parking was a struggle, but note there is even an app to extend your parking time and pay. That is the little inconvenience for the gorgeous view and location.

United StatesThere's a steep little stairway to get up to the room, but that wasn't really a problem -- and it's close to inevitable in the Sassis of Matera, with the amazing houses built into the cliff-sides. Our host helped us up the stairs with our luggage, in any event. So, this is really a minor thing -- just to let people know, if they have trouble with stairs. Actually, if one has trouble with stairs, it would be better not to stay in the Sassis, because there are uneven stone paths and stairs all over the place.
The location in one of the Sassis of Matera was central and perfect -- and interesting walks through the amazing scenery took us wherever we wanted to go in the town. Our host was very gracious -- she lives next door and made it clear that she would be available if there were any problems, and she helped arrange for a taxi to get us from and to our garage when we arrived and when we left (one cannot reasonably drive anywhere near the Sassi accommodations -- they are pedestrian areas with limited driving for deliveries, and so on -- a taxi can stop briefly). The room among the caves was bright-feeling and extremely well designed given it was not all that large -- the bathroom and shower were terrific. It all felt totally comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. Breakfast was generous and very good. All in all we would definitely highly recommend this B & B.

FinlandFor visitors: Matera has poor taxi service so be prepared to go by two buses or try to get a taxi prebooked. I managed ok as I am fluent in Italian but may be tough otherwise
Super hospitable people, really took care of me and booked a fab restaurant for me. Warmly recommend
