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 perfect and was walking distance to all the amazing sights. There is a supermarket which is seconds from the apartment. The view from the balcony is stunning and something I will always treasure. I looked forward every morning to having a cup of coffee and lose myself to the stunning views of the skyline and mountains. The rooms inside are spacious and very clean and well kept. Sergio and Rosalba were so lovely and were on hand to help with anything we needed and gave some great recommendations for restaurants.
Absolutely nothing!
Ahmed and family thank you for the beautiful review and respecting the apartment like it was your, it was our pleasure having wonderful guests like you. I highly recommend you to other hosts. Hope to have you back again soon.

Verified reviewThe apartament is very big, perfect to stay with a group. Walk distance to the city centre. The view from the terrace is stunning, very pleasant to have a coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. Also there is a sea view from the bedrooms, in the morning you can be woke up by the sunrise. Very clean and comfortable. The owners are lovely, the lady who greet us gave us some great recommendations and she had lovely attitude. We had a small problem with electricity because the coffee machine was blowing plugs but the owner solved the problem in 5 minutes. Great communication with the host. Close to all amenities, shop, panificio or ice cream. But what I remember best is interacting with the hosts, wonderful people.
It's a pity that the living room is too small to fit a proper sofa in it, but you can sit on the terrace, the weather luckily was nice.
Thank you for being our wonderful guest!! Hope to have you back again.

Verified reviewGreat location. Great hosts. Spacious and comfortable, almost new apartment. Nicely furnished and good finishes. Our hosts left toiletries and kitchen supplies which were much appreciated.
When booking, we did not notice that there was no lounge room or washing machine. It would be very easy to install a washing machine on the service balcony. An oven would be handy for long staying guests. Otherwise all excellent.

Verified reviewEasy walk to the old town Very helpful and accommodating hosts Supermarkets shops and coffee shops on the road Lovely view over the city to the hills behind
We rented the whole apartment so the keys for each room was a bit confusing. The space was great and the individual rooms great too but as we rented the whole apartment we felt like we were missing a living room to relax together in.

Verified reviewApartment is clean, bright, on the top of the building (9th floor), the building has an elevator. Every room (3 bedrooms) has double beds and there own bathroom, which is great. Parking in the street (with a lot of shops) is free of charge, so if you cannot park in front of the building, wait until 8 pm when shops are closing and there will be free parking lots. Other option is to use a paid parking just across the street, but we didn't need it. If you want to visit all Sicily, we suggest to rent a car on the airport and travel all around Sicily, moreover to rent apartment in Palermo but also to rent another one on the other side of the Sicily, since it is too far away to travel on the other side in one day.
The flat plan is strange, there is no living room (only 3 bedrooms, a kitchen, and corridor very long towards other rooms). Except the view from the kitchen, other windows are looking directly towards other buildings. Sofa in the kitchen is uncomfortable so basically the apartment should be used for sleeping and breakfast only. It is a correct apartment, but nothing charming neither specific for Sicily.

Verified reviewIt was very large and clean. The host was excellent! Beds were super comfy. The extra treats were appreciated. Good local cafe across the street to start to have your morning coffee and a few supermarkets very close.
Could use a little more comfortable furniture in the sitting area inside and on the deck, perhaps an updated couch and chair cushions.
