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.).

The house was beautiful, clean, comfortable and well-equipped for a 4-night stay. The location was close to many restaurants and a small grocery store. The host, Fabrizio, checked in and responded quickly. And the view from the terrace was absolutely breathtaking, with gorgeous sunsets!

Australia😀 All good.
Absolutely charming. Incredibly homely and comfortable with lounge and dining spaces and furniture, including rooftop balcony.. I strongly doubt I will ever stay anywhere like it again. Appreciated the coffee tea and snacks available. Great location in the centre of the old town and near museums, cafes and shops. We did not meet the host, but he was easily contactable and helpful with initial problems we had locating property due to IT issues downloading map.

CanadaThere was nothing! It was all delightful!
The BnB is in a perfect location. In the old city, close to everything, with a lovely terrazzo with stunning views. The home was roomy and well-appointed. Breakfast was self-serve, and our host Fabrizio had the kitchen very well-stocked. We couldn’t possibly eat everything he had out for us.

Great stay in San Marino. Owner was wonderful, the place was charming (even caught quite a few folks taking pics of the front), well stocked kitchen, and the view and sunsets, well, spectacular. Will need to go back as two days was not enough to explore what San Marino has to offer. Everything was just perfect.

We loved everything about B&B Balsimelli12. From the elegant design of the place to the sensational views from the terrace, everything was perfect. Fabrizio has thought of everything to make staying at his place a pleasure. If you have the opportunity to book this lovely B&B in San Marino, don't think twice.

ItalyThe property has a rich family history, that adds to the charm of the home. Fabrizio has tastefully designed the property with a unique mix of historic momentos mixed with modern amenities and atmospheric lighting. The top floor terrace, looking out over San Marino and the tiers of hills beyond, is the crown jewel. A true home away from home!!

United KingdomBe aware that the Palace clock chimes every 15 mins from 6am to 10pm.
The balcony was almost totally private amd gave views over many miles - simply stunning. Comfy bed, gorgeous house and dogs. Very nice host (wish I had seen him more). He even sent me texts checking how I was). His instructions and information are clear and spot on (do take the cable car, its just 5 mins walk without too much of a climb). I saw that breakfast seemed quite well stocked (the host got me some gluten free foods which might not have been easy in San Marino). Apart from the b&b being 100%, San Marino is, too. Simply stunning.

HungaryAfter arriving we almost immediately decided to stay longer but unfortunately the apartment was already reserved. Of course it's not a negative impression just us not being lucky. But if we will ever return to San Marino (and we will), we'll stay in Balsimelli12 for sure!
The apartment truly surpassed our expectations, the pictures just cannot give you back the feeling being there. Everything is so well selected and sophisticated, perfectly matches the San Marino lifestyle. Not to mention the location, right in the middle of the old town yet in a quite street. Truly breathtaking. Fabrizio is the perfect host, everything was clean and organized, the fridge was full of fine foods and drinks.
