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.).

Shower needs updating. Said online that there was parking in the courtyard but had to pay to park on street. Breakfast limited, but that was probably due to very cheap price.
Good location. Value for money. Nice bedroom. Clean.

From the info, we believed there was onsite parking but this wasn’t the case - parking is challenging with limited availability in the area. We were lucky that the owners allowed to use their space that night so we didn’t need to move it in the pouring rain We had a comfortable nights sleep but the bed would benefit from a mattress topper
The family who run the hotel & restaurant were so friendly & welcoming, especially Dad & son in the restaurant! The bathroom was a bit dated but it was spotless & the shower had great pressure! , The room was clean & the bed was comfortable. Considering the central location, it was really quiet. The hotel restaurant was exceptional, one of the nicest meals I’ve had in Italy with local fresh produce & home made breads

I would recommend taking earplugs as the walls are thin. Also, the room was overheated and it wasn't possible to stop the heating.
Great location and friendly staff. Really nice breakfast served in an old hall.

It was not my first time staying here and it was every bit as good as I remembered. It is in the center of town, behind the Duomo, and has on-site parking and loads of nice restaurants at hand.

1. We stayed at the Albergo San Lorenzo (ASL) for 3 nights in October 2024. Unbeknown to us, it was the weekend of the Donkey Palio, which we enjoyed immensely from the window of our room! 2. The location of the ASL is perfect. The entire town is easily accessible on foot. 3. Alba is well worth an extended visit. The tourist office (200m from ASL) organises excellent walking tours in English. 4. Our room was large, clean, comfortable and reasonably quiet. 5. Given the ideal location, our stay here was reasonable value for money. 6. Breakfast in the hotel and supper (next door) were both very good. 7. The welcome was friendly and the service and willingness to help were excellent. 8. There is free street parking within a 5-minute walk.

I wish they would have provided two extra pillows in the room. Other than that, everything was great.
The location of the hotel is fantastic, cannot be any better. Right in the heart of the city, near everything. We were also very happy that they offered parking for free, in a private courtyard right next to the hotel. Great value for the money spent
