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 Arab EmiratesA lot of steep stairs. The flight of blue stairs needs a hand rail. Room was small with small window so barely any natural light. No views.
It was ample and food was covered. Some food not on display so this should be stated. Views from roof where breakfast is served is a lovely start to a day. Room was well cleaned. Check in was easy and queries were answered quickly. Location close to market, shops, restaurants and boat trips.

GermanyStaying at Terra&Mare was a wonderful experience. The property is very well located, in a walking distance from everything in Ortigia, and free from the noise and crowds. The room was extremely comfortable and clean - most comfy bed we had in the whole trip. Breakfast was delicious and served in a beautiful terrace from which you can overlook the port and the city. Valentina was the perfect host: kind, helpful, and we really enjoyed talking to her, learning from her experience and knowing her story. We couldn't recommend it more.

CanadaNot much to say.
Everything about this place was just perfect. The location is just a few minutes from the centro. Parking a few steps away. Actually used EasyPark to park daily. We were 2 families and booked 3 rooms. Just the right size for us. Rooms were cleaned every day, and we enjoyed our morning breakfast on the rooftop terrace. Our host Valentina was there every morning to make sure that all is okay. Just the nicest person. For those who don't like stairs , maybe not for you. The rooms are several flights of steps up. But really not an issue. I'd you plan to be in Ortigia , think about staying here. Perfect

GreeceJust know that it's an old building with many staircases so if you are older or have mobility issues it won't be appropriate. The breakfast was a bit early, 8-9.30/10am, it could be nicer to have them a bit later for those of us who are night owls 😁
Amazing place, the staff are so wonderful, had great breakfasts on the roof terrace, very comfortable rooms, highly recommended!

GermanyNothing, I would highly recommend this place in Siracusa!
Location central, but also away from the busiest steets. The room (single) was spotless, had everything I needed, and was very cosy! Breakfast served on the beautiful roof terrace, where I had a chance to meet Valentina - the host. She was very kind and breakfast was delicious. My croissant was absolutely mindblowing, but I also really appreciated having boiled eggs, olives, and mushrooms offered at the table (which is not always an option in Italy).

US Virgin IslandsThere were many stairs up to the rooms in the attic which was okay but wanted to share in case that would be a problem. Also the only window was a skylight. We quickly got used to it and all of the other things completely over rode it but thought it worth a mention. Next time we would get a non attic room.
The property was in a fabulous location right near the morning street market and the waterfront, easy walk to sites and Siracusa right over the bridge. The staff was very lovely and helpful in every way. The rooftop breakfasts were delicious, both savory and sweet, lots of fresh food. When the weather was poor we got breakfast delivered to our room! The room was clean, brightly decorated. Even had a shower with a colored light show. Was very romantic.
