How guest reviews work
Each 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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done 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 of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Verified reviewThe location of our apartment was just a few steps from the piazza. The accommodation was superb and so tastefully restored by the Di Ciacca family. We travelled as a family and each apartment was different but so beautiful. We would hope to return.
The breakfast was brought to our room from the nearby cafe. We felt that it could have been improved by adding, say, some cheese and prosciutto or some pastries although the lovely bowl of fresh fruit provided was much appreciated.
Thank you. We are pleased you enjoyed your visit. We find most of our guests are happy with a light breakfast of cappuccino (or something else), a cornetto and a fresh orange juice in the mornings, while those who prefer more have the facility of using the small kitchen provided in each suite, with its fridge, microwave oven, dishwasher and pots, pans, crockery and cutlery. Please let us know next time and we shall arrange for salumi and cheese to be provided to your suite.

Every restaurant had closed for vacation, you would think that they could stagger their closings.

Verified reviewI'm surprised that the listing does not include photos of the rooms because ours was very pleasant. The bed was very comfortable with a soft mattress. Breakfast (coffee, juice and cornetti) was most welcome, and eating it on the terrace with the beautiful view over the Val di Comino was enjoyable. Parking was not a problem - the piazza was closed for a festa the evening we arrived but there is a car park not far away up the hill where we were always able to find a spot. Our host Cesidio and Francesca who brought the breakfast in the morning were both pleasant and helpful. On departure Cesidio presented us with a bottle of his family wine which was very nice when we opened it later. We left an item behind in the room and Cesidio and Francesca dealt with it very helpfully.
The Wi-Fi did not work. Apparently they had recently had the internet upgraded so hopefully that was just teething problems which will be resolved soon. Otherwise, nothing really to complain about. The "coffee machine" turned out to be a stove-top percolater but that's OK. Air-conditioning would have been nice (we were there in August) but I accept that it would only really be needed for a few weeks a year, and we knew that there was no aircon when we booked.
