How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewLocation is great and despite being very crowded outside you don’t hear much noise. It’s very clean and we have got good communication with the host.
The beds are very soft and a bit loud when you move during your sleep

Verified reviewThe location, good wifi.
The room was not very clean, no one came by to clean the room while we stayed for 3 days nor provided clean towels. The bathroom was gross. The balcony opened up to a trash alley way which smelled terrible. The pictures of our room were deceiving.

Verified reviewAlessia was lovely; so friendly and her directions and advice were excellent.
It was very noisy. The first two nights we were woken by loud live music playing nearby and the third night by noisy guests returning to the B&B.

Verified reviewLovely large room in the centre of Palermo. Nice comfortable bed and nice shower. Loads of restaurants below to eat
It was probably quite noisy at night as loads of restaurants below. I got drunk though and went to sleep which was probably best!

Verified reviewGood location and friendly staff We were quite disappointed, to be honest. We stayed in a Junior Suite with a balcony, but our experience was far from what we expected. At night, it was quite noisy, as there were trash bins located directly below our balcony. The constant noise made it difficult to get a good night's sleep. Additionally, the sofa bed was extremely old and in poor condition-it was uncomfortable and frankly unhygienic. It should have been replaced long ago. The mattresses were also very worn out and uncomfortable. We stayed for two nights, and unfortunately, we struggled to sleep well both nights due to the noise, the poor condition of the mattresses, and the uncomfortable sofa bed. Overall, the experience did not justify the price at all.

Verified reviewThe location was fantastic. Right in the heart of Palermo, just up the street from Teatro Massimo. There were many restaurants and cafes just outside the door. The staff were amazing. Alessia answered all our enquiries pretty much immediately and was very helpful in organising transportation and sending through information.
Some facilities listed on the booking weren't available - such as a laundry. We also had to use one of the fold-out beds to meet the twin room requested.
