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.).

United Statesif there was a negative, which I don’t think there was to this hotel, it would be that it is in the very beginning part of the medieval village. The advantages to that were the spectacular views of the Duomo from a slight distance away. The walk through the town took only five minutes to arrive at the Bell Tower, so truly this was a great place for us to stay. If I had a hard time with mobility, I may have preferred to have been closer to the tower or the Duomo.
Very nice breakfast with a super helpful staff.

United StatesTruly, nothing! They even offered some nice features not mentioned in the website, such as a help-yourself honor system bar that is available and well-equipped to suit the tastes of all guests.
Everything! The hotel has a beautifully-appointed historic charm, but with all the modern amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The view of the city from the patio/breakfast area is gorgeous! Gabriella, Maria Luisa and the rest of the staff were very friendly and hospitable, offering helpful hints and assistance with reservations for restaurants and other local services.

The room had a stunning view of the center city and Duomo. There was a patio on our second floor room. The hostel has an elevator! The bed was very comfortable. Outlets were a bit sparse, but I had an extension cord along which helped. The staff is wonderful — very helpful and hospitable. Great continental breakfast in the morning.

BrazilIs not really a problem but do not use google maps or the car GPS, because you may get lost inside the no traffic zone of the city. Use Waze and you shall be fine.
Kindness of the staff, specially Gabriela, was one of the freares we ever seen in our trip to Europe. She helped us with everything and made all efforts soe we could enjoy our stay. We stayed in the room with the terrace facing the catedral. To be honest, I sited for 15 minute straight almost crying my eyes out for what I was seeing. Get this room and you will get one of the best views of a lifetime. Good breakfast.

CanadaWhat a lovely boutique hotel experience. The accommodations were refined and comfortable. We had a view of the narrow cobblestone street out front, but the breakfast terrace provided an amazing view of the picturesque city and Basilica Cateriniana San Domenico. The staff were friendly and helpful, the breakfasts wonderful.

United KingdomDiscreet entrance to this small but perfectly formed hotel with exceptional views across to the back of the duomo (the view is at the back of the hotel. The front of the hotel overlooks a street at the top of which is the Basilica of San Domenico). We were very lucky and had a wonderful room with terrace (the only one in the hotel, I think). The breakfast was continental in style and also very good with fresh fruit and pastries as well as cereal, meat and cheese. There's an honesty bar and you can sit on the terrace at any time. The staff were extremely hospitable, helpful and friendly. You won't be woken up by noisy people but you will be by church bells and occasional drumming. It didn't bother us though. It's about a 8 min walk to either the duomo or Il Campo. Definitely recommended.
