Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.

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...).

excellent location and great snacks provided in the sitting room. The room was very large, bright and clean.

This is an excellent well appointed and characterful apartment with everything you need for a most enjoyable stay. Situated next to the old town wall with beautiful views over the magnificent countryside, was a real and much appreciated bonus. We liked it so much that we were sad to leave. Katerina, our host, was extremely helpful and friendly. I can highly recommend this apartment.

Perfect location in the very heart of Pienza, not too far from free parking areas. Lovely town, friendly staff, and good bar breakfast in proper Italian style.

United StatesIt should not be called a B & B. It was more like an AIRBNB. I was really on my own. As a traveler, I was looking for a place that could give me suggestions on things to do that were not so touristy. This place was no help. A key feature of a B&B is that it includes a breakfast for guests, often a more substantial meal than what you might find at a traditional hotel. For breakfast, we had to walk a couple of blocks to get 1 cup of coffee and 1 sweet or savory. Cost of the breakfast if I was to buy it 3.5 E ($4 US). If I wanted a 2nd cup of coffee, I had to pay for it. Because they are often operated by families or small teams, B&Bs often offer a more personalized and intimate experience than larger hotels. The owner / receptionist was there all of 5 min when I arrived. She wasn't there much more than that my whole visit. The one time I tried to reach her, the phone number didn't work. When I asked about parking, I was told they didn't have any on-site parking, but there was parking close by. She forgot to mention there was a charge of 20 E ($23 US) for that parking and the free parking is about 900 m (1/2 mile) away and only about 20 spaces for the whole town. I would not recommend this place to anyone!
It had a comfortable bed and a good location.

United KingdomI had a very unfortunate experience with the staff. After arriving they took our passports and then left. Given that we were only staying one night, going out in the evening and leaving early in the morning I wanted to have my passport back. After giving us our room key they left the building. I had to call them to ask for the passports back. They were rude on the phone and then rude in person when they returned to give us our passport back. They seemed very offended that I wanted my passport back again. I never saw a member of staff again, even when trying to check out in the morning (ended up just leaving the key). The building is old but we could hear everything in the other rooms (speaking and the use of the bathroom). This doesn't make for a nice experience when trying to sleep. Given the rudeness of the staff I would not recommend anyone staying here.
Good location to stay. Very central location. There is a avaliability of biscuits made available. Breakfast is at a nearby bar which is a rough 2 minute walk away (voucher for one pastry and a coffee).

United KingdomA little noisy above the restaurant and the road. Parking tricky. Our host needed to speak quieter- she shouted at us on arrival!! Confusion over the ‘twin’ room. Breakfast was a hot drink and a croissant. This should be stipulated on the booking details.
Good location as right in town. Clean, comfortable, good facilities, beautifully decorated. Lots of character.

United StatesAlthough they were nice, it was difficult to communicate with the host. The phone numbers provided didn’t work and they were a bit slow to respond through messages here on booking. In the summer, it is extremely hot as one can imagine - there was no air conditioning in this apartment & no screens on the windows which was tricky because there a lot of lizards, stag beetles & other critters we didn’t want to invite inside! The only other major complaint was parking. There is no free parking close by even though that was advertised. We had to pay everyday to park which averaged to 12-14 euros a day.
The location of Il Cassello was incredible, with a beautiful panoramic view. It was very clean and extremely well kept! Nice & classic style apartment.
