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...).

United States of AmericaWe liked everything about it.
If I could rate it higher, I would. The hotel itself has just a few rooms on the upper floor of a building just a few blocks from Vatican City. The cleanliness of the room, the amenities, and the location alone merit 10 out of 10, but the owner, our wonderful hostess Marina, took this to a whole other level. From the delightfully old-fashioned self-serve elevator to the many restaurants, grocers, and shops literally on the same block, our three-night stay was comfortable, clean, and relaxing. There is a taxi stand on one side of this block and the Ottaviano Metro stop is two blocks away. The Vatican Museum entrance is about two blocks away. The neighborhood is mixed business and residential and is busy but seemed very safe and walkable. But Marina is my new favorite person in the world. After she buzzed us in the secured front door at street level, she met us at the elevator. She stored our luggage until our room was ready, as we had arrived a bit early. She gave us great recommendations for places to eat, shop, and how to get around. She made sure we had anything and everything we needed during our stay. We communicated easily in person and through WhatsApp and the Booking chat. Moreover, when my wife discovered she had left some items behind in the room, Marina went over and above all expectations to reunite us with those items two weeks later when we returned from our cruise.

CanadaThe one thing I’ll say is the soundproofing isn’t the best. If your a light sleeper you might need some earplugs. It’s an old building with its charms but you can ear pretty much everything around your room.
Absolutely lovely place to stay in Rome. The location is perfect, close to the Vatican, close to a lot of restaurants (try La Soffitta right around the corner the food is amazing!) and a LOT. Of breakfast options also. We walked to the Pantheon and the Trevi fountains ⛲️ easy walk. Close to a metro station also and a lot of buses options also. If you want to explore Rome by foot or public transport it’s really the best spot to be. The bed was big and comfortable (if you like a hard mattress it’s perfect). The room was big enough for 2 peoples and their suitcases to be more than comfortable. The bathroom isn’t huge, but it has all you need and a bidet. The hot water does take a minute to arrive but once it’s there your good to go. We had our room cleaned everyday, bed made and water bottle and snacks replacé everyday which I have to say was very much appreciated. The host stayed for us since we arrived later than anticipated and was very warm and welcoming. She’s often present which his nice and she kept our bags in her office while we explored the city for one last time after the checkout. - Wi-Fi was good and fast - Netflix and Prime available on the TV - water bottle everyday with snacks - comfortable and clean room - old elevator but works perfectly well - very nice and secure neighborhood - very secure rooms too with a safe also available

SwedenTo be honest, there was no problem at all.
Everything was perfect. From the welcoming checking to the goodbye checkout. The lovely lady at the reception was very welcoming, explaining to us all about the apartment, the area, and gave us great tips to visit the city. The apartment was super clean and well organized. Very cozy for two. The location itself is perfect. We did the whole tour in the city just walking, if you like to walk. I super recommend the accommodation.

United KingdomEverything was faultless.
I had originally booked another property for our stay, until I saw an ad for this one pop up. I have to say I am incredibly glad I did, because it was just brilliant. The location firstly, is fantastic. Minutes away from a square that has everything you need, supermarkets and restaurants nearby, and close to the metro which takes you downtown, in 20 minutes. It's a just few minutes walk into the Vatican also. Secondly, our host Marina was just wonderful. Beyond helpful and incredibly kind. I made her aware that the trip was a surprise for my partner's 30th, and upon arrival she had placed balloons and a banner in the room to help me celebrate. Just so thoughtful. Not to mention how accomodating she was. I had asked if I would be able to leave my bag there the day of arriving, as it would have been a couple of hours before check in. Marina was kind enough to help us out, even more by prioritising our room, so that it was actually ready when we got there early!! This was incredibly helpful. The same applied for the day we were leaving, and again Marina allowed us to keep our bag at the property, until we were leaving for the airport which wasn't until later that evening. In addition to her kindness, she took the time to sit and go through a map of the city with us and give us some tips and pointers to help us around the city and where would be good to enjoy a nice evening celebrating my partner's birthday. The room is great, has everything you need and it's cleaned daily, if you wish. There's a coffee machine in the room and snacks and water are given to you also. The bed was comfy and the room was a good size for us a both. My partner is a history nut and so he really appreciated the decoration of the wallpaper in the room. I only have great and positive things to share of my experience because we're were genuinely treated so well, so for helping me make our trip amazing, I'm a beyond grateful to our host.
