Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

GeorgiaThe room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The shared kitchen was quite large and fully equipped with everything you might need during your stay. The location was perfect—right in the heart of the city, close to everything. The host was friendly and provided all the necessary information when we arrived. I would definitely consider staying here again when I return!

Romania-> room was big / high ceilings and it can get a bit cold so we had to use the AC with the heat function -> a pity we could not use the balcony from the room as it was locked -> the toilet seater was not standing on it's own so each time we had to use it, we had to use one hand to keep the seater lifted which was a bit inconvenient (this can be an easy fix for the future)
-> very nice location, close to city center -> host was very helpful, we were given some codes to enter the location so we had a smooth check-in even if we arrived late in the evening -> had some coffee and tea at the property which helped in the morning / evening -> from the balcony (which is accessible via the main door) we could see a bit of Etna

MacauI stayed 4nights in Casa Maravigna, the whole experience is perfect. Very clean, and comfortable to stay. The host allowed me to check in earlier when I arrived, and store my stuff in the B&B when I check out. The community is easy and efficient. The B&B Located in the quiet area of City Centre, 5min to the castle, less than 10min walk you are at the famous fish market and the Cathedral. The environment around is safe and convenient.

LithuaniaNo oven, only microwave. Beds are not comfortable, quite dark in the room because the light is not bright. Every morning you will wake up with noise from neighbour from downstairs who has a garage and collecting some fruits for market (his business). But he is nice and polite, always says good morning 😁
Pretty big apartment with I guess 4 rooms and very spacious kitchen. Good location and I would say even quiet at night. Only in the morning some noise. In general it's really not bad option taking in consideration the combination of location and tranquility at night. There is a big fridge as well, dishes, tools. Also I enjoyed with old windows and very authentic small balcony.

ItalyCons: The beds were a bit hard. The partition in the bathroom needs improvement.
Pros: The property is situated close to the buzzing part of the town and hence it makes it very easy to get to the centre. The bedroom and the bathroom were spacious and well equipped. The host was amazing and always round the corner for any assistance required.

CroatiaTo be honest, the Wi-fi was a bit slow, as noted in some of the reviews, just in case that is crucial to someone. To me it wasn't so important since I didn't spend much time in the apartment.
The location is perfect. Very close to all sights, close to Borselino bus station, 20-30 minutes walk from main train and bus station, close to good restaurants, fish market... The spacious room was clean, comfortable. Coffee, tea, fridge, etc. are available in the kitchen. Communication and check-in went smoothly.
