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 reviewIt takes at least an hour by car to reach Syracuse or Taormina, and without a car, it’s very difficult to get there. On top of that the pool is portable pool, it’s proper for only kids. If you’re booking this place for the pool, you’ll likely be as disappointed as we were. Additionally, there was a strong, unpleasant smell coming from the bathroom that filled the entire room. Because of this, we had to leave a day early. The bed was also very uncomfortable.

Verified reviewThe property was accessible by car and it had an elevated position with expansive views of Mt. Etna and surrounding countryside. It was peaceful and quiet. The room we had was nicely furnished with a large bathroom. Our host kindly got up early to provide a breakfast when we had an early flight.
A number of rooms have common walls and this could be a potential problem with a noisy neighbour.

We stayed here at the end of April and due to the weather conditions we couldn't fully enjoy the relaxation on the open terrace and of course, the pool wasn't functional yet.

Verified reviewWe chose La Terrazza Cirico due to it location to Catania airport and because of the previous excellent reviews. Rino and his wife were very hospitable and genuinely interested to make sure that we felt at home, we were greeted with a nice bottle of wine and some snacks. The room that we stayed in was very clean and modern and the bathroom was very clean, the outside space is beautiful with great views of the surrounding countryside and Mount Etna. Rino recommended the restaurant Lanterna Bianca for dinner on a square in the historic centre of Lentini, this turned out to be the best meal that we had during our holiday to Sicily. Breakfast on the terrace was very good with a wide selection of sweet and savoury, plus fruits and excellent coffee.

Verified reviewIt was in a secluded spot overlooking orange groves and Mt. Etna! We had a beautiful private room just for the 2 of us, with a large bathroom and great shower! And so peaceful! The breakfast, eaten alfresco, was DELICIOUS! Pancakes, bread, cold cuts, cheeses, fresh oj from the grove, cappuccino, coffees, cakes, cookies! The table was set beautifully! Rino and Finuccia gave us printed sheets on places of interest! And a gorgeous pool! Did not want to leave! Will be back!

Rino was the kindest host and really looked after us , he helped us to sort out our flat tyre, drove all the way to the place it happened, took us to the shop to repair it, even helped us to order takeaway food and collect it for us.

Verified reviewWhere to start? The location is sublime, up in the hills with a clear view of Mt Etna. The room is large and has all the comfort you need, the owner speaks fluent English and is very friendly and knows a lot about the area. Breakfast is so much and so good. Probably the best stay I've had this vacation. Wish I booked some more days.
