How guest reviews work
Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Verified reviewThis B & B is a fabulous place to stay. Renato and Eleonora met us and Renato went with my husband to find a park. Eleonora helped me with our bags. They also helped us with tips on what to see and places to eat and drink. It’s in a great location with plenty in the immediate vicinity and only a short walk to the old city on the island. Eleonora prepares breakfast each morning and there was more than enough and always delicious. The room was spacious and comfortable with a lovely balcony. We loved our stay and would happily stay again.

Verified reviewThis place is amazing . It’s the hosts Nonno’s place and he is passionate to tell their story. He is a film buff and we stayed in the Hitchcock room. Close to Ortigia and we had a great view of the marina. Parking was fairly easy , but we were lucky to get a free street parking right outside the location. Airconditioning was welcomed .

Verified reviewExtremely well located, super close to Ortigia, just across the bridge, but away from chaos and busyness of the very beautiful but very touristy island. Loads of good advice from Renato.

Verified reviewB&B Casa Vinci is a wonderful place to stay with greats hosts, very friendly! They went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. They were flexible with our check in time and even helped find free parking right outside the door. They provided lots of information regarding the area including recommended restaurants and places to see. The room was spacious and clean and better than expected. The location was excellent..only a 10 minute walk to old town. Breakfast was provided at a reasonable price and was very good! We would highly recommend B&B Casa Vinci!

Verified reviewThe hosts were lovely and made their best efforts to be helpful and offer advice and restaurant recommendations. The room was more than adequate and decorated with fun movie references, and their family historic photos. Loved the older style elevator. Refrigerator helped.
Maybe our American sensibilities but more fruit and variety for breakfast would be appreciated. Scrambled eggs just one morning would have been nice.
Thank you for the review. We are a simple family-run B&B, not a 5-star hotel. We asked you every day you liked the breakfast and if you wanted anything else. Your response was without specific requests. Today we read about scrambled eggs and a variety of fruit: at the table, usually, there are three varieties of fruit in addition to hard-boiled eggs and much, much more, such as zero-mile products. Maybe, in life, it is enough to simply ask and not say that everything is fine. We have a question for you: in your opinion, were the conditions in which you left the bathroom dignified?

Verified reviewVery friendly hosts! They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable in Syracuse. They even offered us a complimentary breakfast at the accommodation and a cafe down the road! The room itself was clean and a great size for 2 people. We were only a 10 minute walk from Ortigia! I would definitely recommend this apartment and our hosts to anyone looking for an affordable, comfortable and fun experience in Syracuse!
The pillows were uncomfortable but that's an easy fix!

Verified reviewIn many years of travelling, we never had such lovely hosts like Renato and Eleonora. Everything from the arrival till the check-out was so familiar. They both took a lot of time to tell us about the city and the island, tips for sightseeing, dinner, etc. The breakfast made by Eleonora was more than anybody can eat and extremely tasty! When we arrived, we had an incident with our car. Renato went with us to the next car repair shop and told the owner that he shall help us. Just amazing, thank you! 🥰

Verified reviewEleonara and Renato are exceptionally welcoming hosts, kind and generous with advice. They have a very good sense of humor too! Contact with them was very easy from the first moments; we would have liked to spend more time with them! The breakfast is ma-gni-fi-que-ly delicious, fresh products, some of which are homemade. The room, bathroom and common areas are very comfortable with several little touches, spaces, decorations... which enhanced our stay. If we could, we would give it a score of 15 out of 10.
Absolutely nothing. We recommand without any hesitation!
