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 reviewVery beautiful, stylish, slightly retro, Italian modernist spot. Solid design with beautiful details down to the softly rounded brass room key fobs. Extremely attentive staff, very thoughtful, anticipating every need: quenched my thirst with an ice cold bottle of water served in a beautiful, tall glass decorated with a leopard-face decal, with a bowl of ice on the side! Without my even asking, beautiful young server delivered an empty Chianti bottle wrapped with a spiral of incense, lit to keep the mosquitoes away. When they saw that I wanted to swim, gentleman attendant appeared with a net and cleared away all small flowers and other minor debris from pool’s surface until it sparkled! Delicious food, extensive all-Italian menu, with everything freshly imported. Delicious cappuccino for breakfast! Quiet, clean, and extremely comfortable! Highly recommended. Very picturesque spot with myriad flowering plants and trees within a spacious, lush garden. Beautiful swimming pool, very well maintained.
Zero dislikes. Nothing! Loved everything about this place!!!
thanks alot

Verified reviewI like the way we were received in the Property. The 2 Receptionist we met were nice and ready to assist. The Gate Man was good and friendly.
The Towels were not looking good, we were not sure how long they have been kept in the Bathroom - not looking fresh from Laundry. We called earlier to inquire about the Food - we were told there is facility for Dinner. Unfortunately only Pizza was available. There was no options for Food (Low Cab) for Elderly people like us. We could not take Breakfast for the same reason of lack of options.

Verified reviewIt’s a small hotel and inexpensive, so basically would be classified as a bed & breakfast. Its owned by Italians and there is an excellent pizza joint on the premises. They also have a a good choice of Italian food including great pasta dishes. Breakfast was basic but quite nice especially because they bake their own bread which was delicious. The food is I loved the garden it had a tropical paradise feeling with lots of beautiful plants. It was very homely/cozy feel to it. Staff were friendly and there was free wifi. I felt I got very good value for my money
The mattress and pillows could have been more comfortable. Bedding and towels were abit worn out
