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...).

It was in an amazing location for the train station and the city centre. Comfortable bed and fantastic wash facilities! The property also felt very secure which can give you peace of mind while you’re out exploring for the day or going to sleep. The owner was very accommodating and very helpful!

United KingdomHopefully not a regular occurrence - the lift was not working on my day of departure. Walking 3 flights up in the morning was OK , but in the pm collected my suitcase and had to bump it up 66 stairs! Hard work for a 75 year old Granny especially after spending 4 hours walking into and around Siena. Not Pietro’s fault of course.!
Breakfast - Very good - delicious croissant and coffee, only a 2 minute walk from the property. Pietro very kindly allowed me to leave my suitcase during the day of my departure, he was very helpful. Also like the fact there was a fully equipped communal kitchen plus a fridge in my room with a bottle of water for me.

UkraineThere is not enough space in the bathroom, for large people it can be problematic. There is a slight smell of dampness, but if you turn on the hood, it quickly disappears.
Apartments in a great location, 5-7 minutes to the historical center. From the railway almost to the hotel there is a funicular, which is located in a shopping center opposite the railway station. Breakfast in a cafe nearby: a croissant to choose from and coffee. The apartments have everything you need. In the kitchen there is a coffee machine.

United States of AmericaSmall elevator so expect to walk your bags up/down stairs to -3 apartment. The shower and sink were too close making for a tight squeeze to access. "Breakfast" was limited to a coupon at cafe near escalator for a coffee and pastry.
Walkable distance from train station (up escalator-get groceries before coming up in large market) and into old town Siena. The apartment was large with a well stocked kitchen down the hall.

AustraliaVacanze Senesi was located about one minute from the top of the escalators which connects the train station with the town above. The escalator is on the left hand side of the shopping mall which is located across the square outside the station. Our friendly host Paulo met us outside, showed us to our huge room and explained all the workings, especially the do’s and don’ts of the lift. The room was very clean and comfortable. The small common kitchen was a welcome and useful surprise. Porta Camollia one of the entrances to the Old Town was just a few minutes away. We did a trip in the local bus to Monteriggioni and the bus stop was about 75 m from the b&b. All in all we had a very pleasant stay.

Good location, super close to the station; just take the escalators all the way up the hill. Good (post-)Covid solution to breakfast; coupons to the local coffee bar with friendly service. Nice hist, whom explains very well how everything works. We got the room with the backdoor-terrace with lovely view :-)

Room very well located, is less than 5 minutes from the train station and 10 minutes from the centre of Siena. Carlo was very nice and we could leave of backpacks after checkout on the hall. Breakfast was a croissant and a drink on a local caffe.

LithuaniaIt is a little bit difficult to find: find the block of flats No 48 (on the top it is written "autoscuola LA BALZANA"). At the entrance ring the button marked "Vacanze Senisi". Then use the elevator to the level (-3).
Very warm and friendly welcome; Carlo was very helpful and did his best to ensure guest feel comfortable. The location is close to the train station and historic town.

ItalyExcellent position, close to the station and just outside the city wall. The place itself is far superior (for cleanliness, quality of the furniture, extra common spaces at the guests' disposal) to any other hotel or b&b in the same price range that I've seen in Siena. It's also beautifully quiet, the windows looking upon the tree-covered cliff that leads to the lower part of the city and the train station. The owner is beyond nice and the nearby bar that provides breakfast has very good pastry. I've booked it twice already, and I will book it again for sure whenever I need to stay in Siena.
