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.).

Greece-
Excellent room and facilities. The owners are very friendly and the breakfast facilities are excellent. Parking was provided for free just at the door of the room. The old square where the apartment is located (ner tha abbey) is very nice. If you want to go to the nearby Matera is about 20 minutes by car.

This is a germ! Property is super comfortable. Even though breakfast is not included there is coffee and tea that can be made any time. There are also some packaged croissants for free and biscuits and marmelade. Room was spacious and very nice. People were super friendly and helpful. Parking is included but a bit challenging as there are not always spots but we managed fine. Great location to see Matera!

Czech RepublicI know it is strange, but there realy wasn't anything wrong.
Montescaglioso is a charming and authentic town worth a visit by it's own. It is also a good base to go to Matera, Craco or even to the sea. Regarding the accomodation: there wasn't a single thing wrong. The room was big, the bed was comfortable (on the firmer side, just as I like) and big enough for my 199 cm long body. Everything was very clean. The parking lot is guite big and is right behind the building. It can be crowded at times, but we have always found a spot. To reach the property by car, you need to drive trough most of Montescaglioso. The only good way is trought Piazza Roma and then Corso dela Republicca. We were provided good instructions before our arrival. Last but not least: Antonio, the host is a very nice and helpful person. He even escorted us to a car repair shop to have our tire presure checked. Great experience, we hope to be back some time.

GermanyThe property is great, amazingly located in the city of Montescaglioso. When you open the window you can enjoy the beautiful view in the square and it is like going back in time. Parkings are available close to the property, which is very practical. The room is spacious and clean, we enjoyed very much staying there. Antonio, (the host) is welcoming and available for any help you need. We will definitely come back to Foresteria dell’Abbazia!

New ZealandBeautiful old building (originally part of the Abbaye) renovated to a high standard. Spacious bathroom & nice view out over the piazza. Easy, free parking just outside the rear entrance. Lovely hosts & snacks available in the communal dining area. Breakfast available at the cafe just around the corner - we also had a good, simple dinner at the same cafe.

PolandThe only minor issue was the noise of local youngsters hanging out late night at the plaza in front of the appartment. But it was saturday evening and it is small Italian town ;)
Everything was great. The owner was very helpful with everything, the room is spacious, kitchen fully equipped with snacks, tea, coffee, cutlery and dishes. Cleanliness was exceptional, morning views from the nearby city walls- breathtaking. Absolute gem!

GreeceThe air conditioning doesn't cut it for the size and the location of the room. No matter how much we let it on, the room didn't seem to drop the temperature.
Foresteria is located in an amazing building that overlooks the piazza Cavalieri. When we informed Antonio, the owner, that we were about to arrive, when we got there he was already waiting for us so he could make sure we had a parking spot in front of the building. The room was really clean and spacious. It gets cleaned every day. Would highly recommend.
