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...).

LatviaWe were sad that we have to leave
We were truly impressed by the warm hospitality of the hosts. Every dinner was a delightful surprise in the best sense, beautifully complemented by matching music. The wine selection was absolutely delicious. We also loved the cozy, tasteful, and high-quality authentic decor. Our child was especially thrilled with the little lizards and the donkey. Special thanks to Samuele for helping us find the best places to explore in the area, it made our trip much more special.

AustraliaWe spent 7 wonderful days at La Fontaccia. Samuele went above and beyond to accommodate us. He has extensive knowledge of the area and gave us plenty of advice and recommendations. Our room was spacious and comfortable and has a great view from the patio and bedroom. We were fortunate enough to experience everything from warm, sunny days to gentle rain and thunderstorms in our one week stay. Watching the sun set behind the hills with a delicious, Tuscan home-style dinner prepared by Elisabetta that rivals any restaurant is highly recommended when available. Otherwise the alternative charcuterie platter offered is fantastic and thoughtfully prepared. They also have a selection of delicious local wines for purchase. We felt like part of their wonderful family.

CanadaTo get there, a car is definitely a must. But if you are already driving, book your stay!
This was the best place we stayed at on our road trip through Tuscany. Would have loved to stay longer. It is located not too far from Florence, in a beautiful olive farm. The hosts were very friendly and had vast knowledge of Italy and its history. We loved hearing Samuele’s stories. Also, if they offer to host dinner, it is a must try! We had a delicious 4 course meal and it was very affordable. We would have liked to try their cooking class if we had more time.

South AfricaWe had to leave, wish we could have stayed much longer!
The setting is magnificent, and our room was spacious and so comfortable. Breakast was very generous and tasty, and dinner is well worth ordering with many ingredients coming from the farm. But, the highlight of our stay was meeting our host Samuele. He is fantastic - informative about what to do in the area, he gave great background and perspective to the places we were going to visit that helped us experience everything at a deeper level. He was amusing and engaging, we felt completely relaxed and at home.

EgyptThe only slight inconvenience is the last stretch of the road leading to the farm. It’s a narrow one-lane rough road with a few bends. It only lasts a few minutes however, and there isn’t much traffic on it.
In more than 40 years of travelling, this is certainly one of the places I loved the most. The farm is peaceful and offers incredible views of the surrounding hills. The apartment is clean, tastefully furnished and very well-equipped. Sam, is an incredibly helpful and friendly host, who really makes you feel at home. The food is delightful, and the hot-tub is something you shouldn’t miss.

The most wonderful, helpful, friendly, knowledgeable hosts. A location which made me fall in love with the Italian countryside in a way I never expected. Views as far as the eye can see. Tasteful, traditional yet modern interiors/facilities and an incredible breakfast on offer with the added convenience of having dinner as an option too. Samuele went out of his way numerous times so that we might have a good time exploring the area.

RomaniaThe only little ''downside'' is the access road to the location. Is it not long, about 1 km from the main road, but very narrow and if you have a big car is gets sometimes tricky on the steep curves. Luckily the road is not busy and not many cars are at the same time. Anyway once you get to the destination you will forget all about the road :)
My wife and I spent 3 nights at this beautiful location. The agriturismo is an oasis of rest and relaxation away from the hustle of big crowded cities. Everything was really nice; the room was clean and spacious with a nice view of the surrounding hills. The hosts Samuele and Elisabeta are amazing and they really care about their guests. They helped us with planning our trips to Florence, Siena , hiking in the area and they even arranged for us to attend to a wine tasting at a local winery. 2 out of 3 evenings, at dinner , Elisabeta cooked for us and the other guests some delicious local dishes and Samuele was busy to recommend the local wines from Rufina. All the ingredients used to cook were coming from their own garden or from local /neighbor suppliers. Breakfast and dinner are served on the terrace which overlooks the fantastic landscape of the region. One night we had a joint dinner with the other guests. It was quite a unique experience as we shared stories and some nice bottle of wines with people coming from different corners of the world : US, Australia, Ireland (and us from Romania). For breakfast you get basic stuff (cheese, ham, eggs) but also some olives and olive oil made by the hosts from their own olive orchard and some really good cakes made by Elisabeta. All in all the hosts just make you feel very welcomed and give you the sense of relaxation during the whole stay. We would definitely recommend this location and would like to came back another time.

The meals were amazing, the views were spectacular, and Samuel offered so much great information on places to visit. Samuel made our experience even better by arranging a once in a lifetime cooking class and a visit to a small, family owned winery (which was exceptional). Our time there was so relaxing and we hope to be back someday!

CanadaNothing wrong at all, but note that there are some steps to bring the luggage to the room. So just a friendly warning to older travellers with walking issues. Although the owner (Sam) would probably just be happy to help with it.
Can't recommend Agriturismo La Fontaccia enough. This was simply perfect. It felt like we were visiting tuscan friends that really know how to have people over! The location is beautiful, well managed and very clean. Food prepared from local products is incredible. Owners Samuele and Elisabetta are absolute amazing hosts. We will definitely go back!
