Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United States of AmericaThe only problem for a light sleeper is that like any center of a tourist city this one has late evening noise, sometimes removal of trash, sometimes songs and chat on the street. Closing windows helps a lot but not 100%. Despite this, we highly recommend the place.
Spacious, with character, clean, well furnished, comfortable beds and pillows, and well stocked kitchen. Company and spacious bathroom. Washing and dishwashing machines. The location is superb, next to the main attractions, huge choice of restaurants and tons of amazing gelato. Staff responded almost immediately and was very helpful.

CanadaLocation was in historic area of Florence. Very walkable to all historic landmarks and good restaurants. The owner had a comprehensive binder of info for us to clarify all the amenities and recommendations for eating and sightseeing. Wifi was very good. Couch bed was comfortable for our daughter. Any questions we had were quickly responded to. It is on third story of the building and no elevator so people should be aware of that.

New ZealandA lovely apartment located less than 3 minutes from the Cathedral. There is a spacious bedroom (lots of storage) and comfy sitting area. The kitchen has a microwave, dishwasher, hub with oven and a decent sized fridge with separate freezer. There is also a room with a washing machine. AnticaFirenze is on the corner of one of the hubs of activity in Florence with restaurants and supermarkets just a few steps down the street. There is no elevator but that lent to the appeal of the property, a true Italian gem. Andrea (the property manager) was amazing. She was able to accommodate our ever changing plans on short notice. Lots of recommendations and always engaged, the ease of communication made for a fantastic holiday experience.

IsraelMinor fault for the property there's quite a climb to the apartments. (3rd floor-No elevator) however we felt safe enough to keep our baby stroller on the 1st floor spacious floor area. Everything else was so Wonderful It is actually the only drawback. But price has matched it. For those who appreciate Quality, Location, and Super Service. Worth the climb 😁
Location was Best Best Best 🤠 Everything just a step away. The apartment was spacious and cozy Very clean & with good vibes. Smart TV & washing machine was a big + . Andrea was super nice attentive and available throughout our whole stay. Guided & Explained everything we needed with great patience 💯 The Bedroom bed was comfortable + The infant bed was big and of good quality as well. Kitchen was properly equipped.

United States of AmericaAs I am traveling with a child, cooking at home is essential, so it is nice to be able to find a short knife, to cut fruits and veggies or a peeler. Unfortunately it was not available. Poor supply on dishwasher soap, laundry detergent as well as shampoo. Dishwasher sponge old and used up, it is nice to have a fresh sponge to wash dishes with. There are two A/C units in apartment, one in living room and another one in the bedroom. They work, but need a long time to cool the place. A/C in the bedroom is running with water, so need some attention, perhaps just cleaning. two fans in the unit, but only one works. Both bathroom sink and shower were clogged, so my many concerns it’s purely maintenance issues, that needs to be addressed. To be fare to the host, he was well communicating and listening to my concerned and was willing to send someone over to fix the clogged sink, it’s just our schedule was so intense, we did not have time to stay inside and deal with fixing the unit, so I asked for the maintenance person to come by after our departure. Yet again, many little things are just maintenance related and could be fixed. Place could be restocked and A/C and fen could be repaired.
We really like the location of this property, well situated apartment super near to many touristy attractions. The place was clean with the nice view from the windows.
