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):
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.
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.).

NetherlandsSmall nuisance: the shower, although new and comfortable, leaked through the door.
Great location. We had two adjacent rooms with a single balcony overlooking the Sassi. The rooms were carved out in the rock, adding to the flavor. The breakfast was very good.

FinlandThe rooms were scattered so had to drag the suitcase back and fort the reception, but I got some help though.
The room "in the cave" was amazing. The bathroom a couple of stairs down gave the idea how the cavehouses were built. My son enjoyed the bathtube. The breakfast was very good.

RomaniaA bit hard to find just by following navigation apps, as the signal is not always the best there. Difficult to find parking nearby due to ZTL (Zone Traffic Limited) and we had to walk with our baggage from where we parked to the hotel.
Location is excellent, we could see most of Sassi from our windows, simply a breathtaking view! Close to various points in Sassi, 10-15 minutes walking from main attractions. The room was small, but cozy and more than enough for a short stay. The room has good AC, so even the higher temperatures from outside should not cause any issues inside. Breakfast was good and varied, self-serving buffet with a variety of options. Staff was very welcoming and helpful, provided us directions and recommended us some good restaurants.

NorwayWe had a wonderful stay here! The room location was a positive surprise and the view was quite pretty from our window, but also the hotel's lobby area overlooking the city. You are staying in a cave-like room, so you need to be tollerant of door sizes, cobblestone road and some stairs towards the hotel, but it's an enjoyable experience for older people too, since I was there with an older family member!

BulgariaThe hotel felt old and rusty - the rooms could use some refreshening. The bathroom was a bit small.
The hotel is situated in the old town of Matera with an amazing view - our room had a small window looking at the Duomo. In the evening there was a restaurant below with live italian music. The breakfast was nice and tasty, again with an amazing view.

The hotel is in the city centre. I recommend that you pack your belongings in a backpack so you don't have to carry a suitcase. Everyone at the reception was very friendly, as well as at breakfast in the morning. The breakfast has lots of things salami, cheese, fruit, sweet, baked etc. The hotel is lovely, has a great view - our room had a terrace with a view. If you want a romantic, nice, hotel I recommend it. We left the car in the Nicoletti parking - you have to leave the keys in the car but everything was fine they are very friendly. Parking for 24 hours was 20€.
