Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 StatesThe big bed is essentially a futon over wooden slats as opposed to a mattress with a little more structure. The couch pull-out mattress is more comfortable, for a frame of reference. The big bed isn't the worst bed I've slept on in a rental, but it's close.
Clean, well-furnished and very comfortable apartment in the heart of the city, easily walkable to most of the big attractions and surrounded by great places to eat. Check in/out was easy, host was nice. This was pretty close to a perfect spot for being in Florence in the sweltering heat since we could come back easily and drop things off, cool off in the A/C, take a nap after the morning activities, and be right back out in the city.

United Statesshower door was broken and a bit run-down/could use some love. AC wasn't working properly BUT i will say that the owner/host was quick to assist and helped fix so it ended up working out! we knew the place had stairs and the stairs were REALLY rough being on the top floor and the heat of the summer; but location made up for it :) bed wasn't the most comfortable but again, location of this place truly made up for all of it.
location was phenomenal, can't express enough how amazing the location is!!! host was super responsive and so incredibly kind - even dropped off extra towels for us given that were were staying for a longer period of time. the home was spacious and having a washer (note: no dryer) was amazing and much needed.

A very comfortable accommodation, like a home. Very clean and the kitchen was very well equipped. The host was very helpful and responsive. Very clear instructions for finding location and checking in. Excellent area. Bed was comfortable, although it was 2 single mattresses. We would stay again and recommend this accommodation.

BrazilBeware of the steps, about 80 to get to the room (not a big problem for us, just ponting out). The appartment was clean, but as we entered on the first day had a "dirty floor cloth" smell (We left the window open, and it went away).
Andrea was a very nice and well prepared. The day before she send well detailed orientations and had a binder full of tips. The location was simply amazing. less then 5min walk from the central market, where you can find amazing food. We did everything by foot and enjoyed our stay in Florence. The appartment is big, there is a fully equiped kitchen, washing machine (which was a godsend in the middle of our trip). The bed is comfortable.

United StatesThe only problem for a light sleeper is that like any center of a tourist city this one has late evening noise, sometimes removal of trash, sometimes songs and chat on the street. Closing windows helps a lot but not 100%. Despite this, we highly recommend the place.
Spacious, with character, clean, well furnished, comfortable beds and pillows, and well stocked kitchen. Company and spacious bathroom. Washing and dishwashing machines. The location is superb, next to the main attractions, huge choice of restaurants and tons of amazing gelato. Staff responded almost immediately and was very helpful.
