Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

ThailandDuring my stay, the room was not cleaned and towels were not changed.
It was cold that day, but the room was kept warm and comfortable. European-style furniture is also nice. The owner was also a wonderful person.

Just missing some amenities like coffee and some snacks. Otherwise it was a perfect location, clean, and the lady was kind and guided us through the place. However she doesn’t speak that well English. It felt like a home

ArmeniaIt was an old flat, the personnel didn't give us our towels. When I called the administration, they didn't understand, because of English. I was waiting for a long time until she brought and asked me how many towels I needed. There was a key for the personal bathroom. It was uncomfortable, every time you go to the bathroom, you should take keys, after that you should close the door.
Maybe the old fashioned retro flat. Like XVIII century interior.

United States of AmericaThe air conditioners were broken, which wasn't too big of a deal because it wasn't that hot outside. Somehow even with the windows closed, lots of mosquitos got in.
The hotel is in a really convenient area, only a few minutes away from some of Florence's biggest attractions. The room was spacious, basically an apartment and was very clean. Maria is very friendly and accommodating.

AustraliaIt was up 2 flights of stairs to our room which didn't bother us but I know they have other rooms that would be suitable for people who don't want to do stairs.
Katti House is in a great position. We walked there from the station and we were right in the middle of everything. The room furnishing was "old worldy" and suited my idea of a well furnished room in Florence. It had a fridge and kettle and our room didn't' front onto the street so was very quiet. We also like the breakfast which was 3 Euros each and for that we went to a local cafe, Pompi and has a lovely pastry and coffee.

United KingdomI messaged the host on the booking.com app whether we could leave our luggage there when we arrive at 8am but there was no proper response. I messaged repeatedly, emailed and called the phone number provided for check in instructions but no response. No whatsapp available. We then just decided to leave our luggage at the station and arrive during check in times to be safe. When we arrived the people there seemed they were not expecting us until I showed my booking.com confirmation. Host was an elderly man who did not speak English so it was understandable if they were not Internet savvy but at least they should respond to phone calls.
Very close to everything. Big private shower and toilet. Clean. Comfortable bed and pillows.

United KingdomWhilst we liked the overall location and appartments we found the bathroom very small and room rather dark. The windows were facing into a shared corridor so never felt completely private.
We stayed at Katti house for two nights during our stay in Florence. The appartments are located in the historical centre, very close to the tram T2 that takes you here from the airport (2mins walk to the apartments from the tram stop Unita). Maria was so lovely and welcoming and made us feel welcome 😊 We stayed at a small appartment on the first floor which was clean thorough. Grazie mille Maria
