Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

RomaniaEverything was good, except the window is above a little street and some of the teenagers were making a lot of noise, but it's not something we can controll, teenagers have a lot of energy.
It's conveniently in the old city and close to the street parking, which is a big plus if you have a car and luggage. Clean and a very very beautiful view from the shade balcony. That appartment has 2 rooms with a shared kitchen.

We loved how she communicated with us quickly and was very warm and welcoming. The place had an outstanding view of the sassi in the balcony! We also loved how it was central to everything. We were able to find a parking spot just nearby (5mins walk away) on the streets.

AustraliaThe place is really nice … the only thing that my friend and I would like to recommend ( being both females) is to have a mirror in the bedroom area ( not just in the bathroom ) so it’s easier to get ready without waiting for the other person .
The location was perfect … You can basically see the Sassi from the verandah ! So you have your own private view of the Sassi early in the morning or late at night or anytime 😊. Close to everything …. bars , cafe , museum , Sassi lookout , the piazza etc . And the place is tastefully done ! So clean and modern inside . And last but not the least , Angela ( our host ) was so beautiful and accommodating 🥰 Just a note : The Sassi is totally walkable regardless of where you are staying in the Sassi area .

BulgariaThe location is just 1 min away from the main streets. Angela, our host, was very kind and friendly and she helped us with the parking. In addition, this place is one of the cleanest places we've been - we had everything we need during our stay and even more! The apartment has a terrace with the best view ever and we had a compliment from Angela - a bottle of red wine, which we drank on the terrace, watching the gorgeous view. 10/10 recommend. Thank you Angela for offering your fantastic home!

I really cannot believe that we found such a wonderful place to stay in Matera. The location is absolutely perfect, the accommodation is extremely stylish and Angela is the most kind and lovely host. From the roof terrace you have a full view of the sassi...and what an amazing view; the bottle of wine to watch the sunset with was an added bonus. Everything was spotless. The moment you step out of the door you are in the historic centre and everywhere is walkable (you certainly get your steps in!) There's a good choice of bars and restaurants, and of course some wonderful artisan shops too. I would return here any time I come back to Matera.

United StatesI thought the balcony was attached to the room but it was actually up a flight of stairs. There was no view window from the room. There was one ottoman in the room but two would have been nice for two people (we had twin beds room). The air conditioning was wonky and we had to call the owner to assist us, but it did work.
The host met us in the street to show us to our room. There was a splint of red wine left for us and there was a shared kitchen where tea was available. The host spoke no English but used a voice translator to communicate. The apartment was at the edge of the Sassi and the town, so easy access to both.

PolandStayed in may 2023. L'Affaccio have a perfect lacalization to for active sightseeing of Matera - the old town. The facility is within a 10-12 minute walk from the main railway station and the bus station. There is no direct access by car if that is your way of travelling, but you may find parking close by. In the close vicinity you will find everything you need - bars, restaurants, bakeries, market. Our room was on the first floor of the apartment (internal stairs), there is only one more room on the ground floor for other guests. Our room was spacious, equipped with everything you need (air conditioning, hangers, luggage space, comfortable bed, bedside tables, TV), the room has a window overlooking a small side street. There was silence at night. The bathroom is well equipped (with a small window overlooking old Matera), equipped with disposable gels, soap, shampoo, adequate amount of towels, shower, bidet. All quite modern very clean and tidy. In the common area there is a kitchenette with basic utensils and a living room with a table and chairs. On the first floor there is a public balcony with a beautiful view of the old town which I liked the most, there are tables and chairs where you can relax. The whole apartment is neat - artistically decorated in good taste. The owner of the facility is very nice, helpful and communicative. Very good value for money, wish there were more places like L'Affaccio in Italy. In summary, I recommend this place!

United StatesLovely, friendly host for a beautiful property in an amazing central location. Just exceptional. Very much enjoyed the fact that the premises had a small kitchen, with everything you need to make coffee/tea, and a small frig. As we stayed there over Easter, we really appreciated being able to have our own Easter Sunday brunch on the property terrace, relaxing while looking out at the gorgeous view. If you go to Matera, we recommend that you stay here. (One note: like many places in Matera, there are stairs so if you have issues with stairs, be sure to book the room on the main floor, as there are only few stairs at the entry down to the main level.)
