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 reviewThe location was absolutely perfect--Almost next door to S. M Novella (don't miss it!) and close to all the main sites. The suite was clean and well appointed and there was daily housekeeping. What stands out for us though was the friendliness and helpfulness of the host, Francesco. Check-in was clear and he was there to welcome us. He called cabs for us whenever required, He responded quickly to all questions and, an added bonus, he recommended a restaurant (2 minute walk) that served the most delicious food (take out or eat in) while catering to all my dietary restrictions. Thank you so much!!!

Verified reviewThere are an endless list of positives about this property. From the sparkling clean rooms, to the complimentary coffees, biscuits, and even a bottle of wine! The location is nice and just a very short walk to the tram directly into the city centre. The air conditioning and other facilities all worked perfectly and without any issue. Francesco also met us with the key on the first day and gave us some great advice on where to go and what to see! Cannot recommend this property enough. We did not want to leave!
The only thing to mention is that there are 3 bedrooms in the apartment with a communal kitchen/living area shared with the other rooms. We did not realise this when we had booked and this was maybe a complete oversight on our behalf, not the property. Nonetheless, we never once encountered any other guests and did not hear a thing at night so it did not affect us at all.
Thank you so much for your review. You were lovely, kind, and above all friendly guests. Yes, my property is a type of guesthouse, a Bed & Breakfast. It's an apartment with shared rooms, as stated in the listing. Thank you for your detailed review regarding the amenities. Thank you so much again, and a big hug.

Verified reviewGorgeous room and bathroom, beautifully decorated, very comfortable bed. A cheeky window into the shower that would be perfect for a honeymoon. The host let me check in early and it was so appreciated! He had all of the information and even videos prepared to help me do early check in. He was the kindest and best host I had in Firenze/Florence. Elevator, espresso machine and kettle in the room are all conveniences I look for and he had all of them! The area felt safe and the building/street area was quiet. Some local restaurants nearby, away from the center crowds but right near the tram. It was the perfect place for me. I wish I could stay longer.
The guests next door to me were loud until 2am the first night. But that wouldn’t stop me from booking again. It is a condo transformed into a home stay so other people are closer than in a hotel.
thank you so much for the wonderful review, it is always a pleasure to meet nice kind and above all polite guests like you. I am sorry for the somewhat noisy guests, but these days we have the rock festival in Florence and some guests are a bit noisier than others. Thanks again and a big hug

Verified reviewPerfectly located: 20 min with the tram directly from the airport and 5 min walk to the flat. With the tram to the city center as well in only about 20 min. Francesco was very kind and sent all instructions upfront and was available for us, altough we arrived earlier than check in time. We wer also able to leave our luggage on departure day until the end of the day before heading to the airport. The room had plenty of space and we got delicious complementary welcome cookies from a local bakery (no packed stuff)! We enjoyed the stay very much and recommend the residence very much!

Verified reviewThe accommodation is near the tram, so going to the city center takes only about 20 min. The room is very spacious and clean, everyday a person came to clean the room, towels are being changed regularly. The owner always answered very fast. We also had a fully equipped kitchen in our room and a small balcony. All in all it was a wonderful accommodation :)
It would have been nice to have a bigger towel rail (not only hooks but a real rod) to hang wet towels.
thank you for leaving your feedback, it was a pleasure. My property is located 1.5 km from the main train station. It takes eight minutes by tram. After that you can only continue on foot. From my property to the Duomo it takes about 20 minutes 🙂 I will try to put some towel holders in the room. Thanks

Verified reviewI can confidently say it was an outstanding experience! From the moment I booked, the communication with the owner (Francesco) was exceptional. He was incredibly responsive, providing all the information I needed to make my stay comfortable and enjoyable. It truly felt like I was in good hands. The cleanliness of the property was top-notch. Everything was spotless, from the living area to the bathroom, making it easy to relax without any worries. It’s clear that the owner takes great pride in maintaining the space. Additionally, the location couldn't have been better! Situated in a vibrant neighborhood, I had easy access to local restaurants, shops, and attractions. Whether I wanted to explore or simply unwind, everything was conveniently close by. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful stay. I can’t wait to return!
Everything!

Verified reviewVery spacious with communal lounge area and small terrace there if you wanted to use it. Clean and modern. Thanks for the kind gesture to make our honeymoon special!
The city centre was about 10/15 minutes away by tram but we liked the peace and quiet that came with that. Not a criticism but may disappoint some people.

Verified reviewWe had a lovely stay! The location was great – just a 5-minute walk to the tram stop, which made getting around super easy. There were also plenty of parking spots nearby, which was really convenient. The room was very cute and tastefully decorated, exactly like in the photos. Everything was clean and fresh – the cleaning staff made the room spotless every day while we were out, and it was always nicely aired out and cozy when we came back in the evening. The host was very kind and explained everything clearly when we arrived. Overall, we felt very comfortable and well taken care of. Would definitely recommend!

Verified reviewNice and easy self service check in, with clear instruction from Francesco. The rooms was clean and a good size with good coffee and cakes, all complimentary! Location was just a short tram journey from the city centre so it was quiet, but still very easy to get into Florence to see all the main attractions. Francesco also gave us plenty of great suggestions on things to do and see, and he even let us store our luggage for the day before we had to leave Florence!

Verified reviewIt is a cozy apartment very close to the T2 tram line, easy access to the airport and city center. The host was very tentative and fast in response via WhatsApp. My wife got sick and had a fever during the first night, it’s Sunday so we couldn’t find the medicine. Francesco quickly brought us the thermometer and some tables of paracetamol to ease our mind. It was much appreciated! I would highly recommend this place to stay in Florence. And the apartment had a lift, friendly for travelers with heavy luggage.
The street outside can get noisy during the day due to traffic, but the windows are well insulated which can block most of the noises. If you’re mostly out and about during the day, this is not really a problem.
thank you for this beautiful review, and I am happy to have helped your wife for a problem that can happen. I wish you all the best. We hope to see you again soon one day. Best regards
