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 reviewSpacious, clean and well equipped 2 bedroom apartment with free car parking in a quiet part of Lecce. 10 min walk to the Lecce historic centre.
No washing detergent available so had to buy our own for a 3-day stay. No breakfast included, although it meant we went to the local cafes. Very minor issues though, I would recommend staying at this property.
Thanks for the great review! We're sorry, but we usually check that the apartment has everything we need for the furnishings, and this time we missed the laundry detergent... we'll be more careful.

Verified reviewNice welcome and easy communication with the different people and staff! The historic center is pretty accessible by walk (10-15 minutes). Giulio makes the possibility to park the car in front of the house for free which is really nice :) We also appreciated the breakfast, which is complete (salty, sweet, fruits...). The room is spacious, the bed confortable and the air conditioner is operational, another plus ;)
One downside is the shower, which is pretty small and would need a renovation.
Thank you for the many positive reviews, which we regret didn't translate into an adequate rating. Yes, the shower is a bit small because we're in a listed building dating back to 1697, where renovations have very restrictive requirements.

Verified reviewThis was a great B&B to stay at. The rooms were a good size and lovely having a terrace. Breakfast was excellent. The owner was extremely helpful. The location was good - about 10 minute walk to the historical area. I would stay here again.
The parking is a challenge as it is at the end of a dead end street so makes for a challenge to turn the car around and find parking. The bathroom needs to be refreshed. The door to the shower was sticking and grout needs to be cleaned up.
Thank you! It is always a pleasure to receive positive reviews, that reward our work for an ever better reception. Thanks for suggestions that we do it...Best wishes Giulio

Verified reviewHuge variety of delicious breakfast items: baked goods, fruits, yogurts, meats and eggs - prepared fresh daily during the week. On weekends breakfast was served at the local bakery - offering sweet or savory foods and tasty gluten free options as well. The B&B is located at the end of the street, so no thru traffic provided a quiet, peaceful neighborhood. Within a 15 min walk, you were in the historic center. A 10 min walk away - you’ll find the train station and grocery store; just around the corner is the bus stop, bars, and restaurants.

Verified reviewWe stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment for the week over Christmas. It was big and comfortable for 5 people. They even put up a Christmas tree for us. It’s the perfect location to walk into the center of Lecce. We booked especially since they had free parking on the dead end street of the hotel. We wanted to have our car near for day trips and had a pass given to us to park on the street - it worked out great. The apartment was well supplied with dishes and cooking utensils. The owner was friendly and professional. Great stay for the week to explore the area!
The beds were pretty hard.

Verified reviewComfortable room, great breakfast and easy walk to Lecce's historic district which is beautiful. Super convenient parking although there appeared to be lots of street parking.
Our room did not have windows so it was kind of dark. But there was a door to the garden driveway which brought in some daylight. Honestly, though, we didn't spend much time in the room during daylight hours so it wasn't a big deal
Thanks for the great review. The room is lit by a completely glass French window, in fact being a room on the ground floor of a 1700's building it is not very bright but the light is there.

Verified reviewLocation was fantastic for exploring the old town. The owner was so responsive, friendly and helpful. If you want tickets to the football just ask Giulio. It was so handy having parking right outside. Walking distance to everything.
Two sets of keys would have been handy as we were travelling as two couples. It is an older property so is looking a bit tired but it’s more than made up for by the location.

Verified reviewThe location was excellent close to the old town and restaurants. Esther breakfast was lovely, and she really makes a great cappuccino. Having parking at the accommodation in the middle of the city was a real added bonus. The beds were comfortable, and we had a lovely balcony. Having a/c was great as it was very warm.
The stairs were very steep, so it might be a problem for people. Difficult when bringing luggage up
Thank you for the excellent review, it is always a pleasure when our efforts for an ever better welcome are recognized. Yes, the stairs are a little uncomfortable because it is a building from the 1700s but we are always available to carry heavy luggage on us.

Verified reviewThe apartment is absolutely HUGE. Close to the center of Lecce. Free parking is available on the street in front of the apartment. The best shower we had during our 2 week trip through Puglia.
There is no air conditioner downstairs in the kitchen/living room area. Since it was over 30 degrees during our stay in mid June, it wasn't really possible to hang out in these areas as it was too warm.
Thanks for the good review... The living room on the ground floor is naturally cool due to the thick stone walls but it is true that on particularly hot days it is not comfortable. One of the next expenses will be to install an air conditioner here too.

Verified reviewRoom was spacious and the bed very comfortable. Location was great, very close to historical center, a 10-minute walk. It was nice that we got a parking permit to let the car on the street right in front the B&B for free. Just inform whether you go by car. Esther takes care of the breakfast and makes a wonderful cappucino. Breakfast is very good with options of fruits, yoghurt, jam, ham, cheese, some sorts of bread and scrambled eggs. I even had gluten free options. Thanks!
I think that kitchen supplies could be more friendly for a short use. There was no paper towels, dishcloth neither detergent. So I had to quit my idea of cooking as I would not buy those itens just for a couple of days. Reception time for check in is dependent on communication. I did it as the orientation, communicating ahead a person to meet me, but she arrived 15 minutes later, so we had to wait outside.
Thank you for the good review... We are sorry for the small omission reported, sometimes those who prepare the room forget something. However, if he had asked for them we would have provided them immediately.
