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.).

PolandIt would be better if self-check in would be possible. Sometimes it is difficult to predict what time you will arrive and someone may have to wait for you or vice versa.
Very good location, close to the main railway station and city center. Multiple cafes, bars and restaurants in the neighbourhood. Despite its central location, the apartment is very quiet. It is spacious, clean and well equipped.

Absolutely the most stunning apartment in the most fabulous and perfect location in Florence. Was beyond our expectations and more lovely than the photos! The cleanest apartment with the most lovely host. We could not be more grateful to Paola for her warmth and kindness and for welcoming us into her stunning apartment.

The Apartment was spotless, beautifully furnished, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect, close to the train station, restaurants and city center. What really stood out was the hospitality of the owner Friendly/professional/helpful, going above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay, They responded quickly to any questions. Overall, we highly recommend Civico 5 to anyone looking for a relaxing and convenient place to stay in Florence. We would definitely return in the future. 5 Stars from us

AustraliaSeriously - Nothing
Picture this… staying in a lovely property that is 10mins walk or less to - Railway Station, dozens of restaurants and takeaways, Mercator Markets, old city major sights and land marks and everything you would want in Florence! Now include a less than 5mins walk to mini marts and supermarkets, laundrette, breakfast cafes and shopping - perfect! Our host, Paula, was fantastic and accomodating to our requests and the clean modern apartment was so convenient to access for international travellers with large luggage. A true Gem of a spot and our standout across 5 weeks of Europe travel! 100% would return when coming to Florence.

TaiwanThe mattress was a bit soft, so movements could slightly affect the other person, but overall, the stay was very comfortable and enjoyable!
The host showed great hospitality—she was very kind and welcoming. Whenever I had questions, she replied patiently and in a friendly manner. She even prepared some food, including yogurt, snacks, and other treats, which was such a lovely surprise! The room was very spacious. The living room had a dining table and a sofa. On the first day, we were able to relax there for a bit before heading out for dinner, which was just what we needed after a long journey. The heating was also much appreciated, especially during the cold winter weather. The location is super convenient—just a few minutes’ walk from the train station.

AustraliaThe unit is absolutely fantastic with great location with most tourist attractions at walkable distances including the train station. The unit in itself is big, spacious and both beds are very comfortable. Paola had left so many little things in the unit to make our life comfortable and she also was there early to take in our bags and put them inside when the cleaning was complete.

SingaporeThe pillows were a little too soft and flat.
The host, Paola was superb. Weeks before our check in, she was already in touch with us ensuring that we were all good and ready by the time we arrived Florence. Throughout our stay, she was always ready to answer any queries we had and offered us suggestions and recommendations on places to walk, dine and shop. Location of the apartment was just a mere 5 to 7 minutes walk from the train station. It is also within walking distance to many sightseeing spots, great dining spots and shopping areas. Room was a very decent size for all 3 of us and beds were comfortable.
