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 reviewThe most affordable room available near the centre of Taormina aside from the hostel. Access to a fridge in the hallway was handy. A nice view of the town.
Whilst the location was very close to the main shopping street and centre of town, the road below was constantly busy with loud cars. Hard to enjoy sitting on the balcony with the fumes and road noise. Pot plants on the balcony needed replacing, there's no coming back from dead. The shower curtain made the shower space tiny and didn't work well anyway. We didn't have hot water one night at all and the towels provided were stained and ragged. There was a pile of rubbish sitting in the hotel entrance the whole time we stayed, it blocked the door from opening wider than a single person. Maybe that was the purpose.

Verified reviewI really enjoyed the stay at this B&B. Especially the location central in Taormina and the affordable price were positive. My room ant the facilities were also clean and in a good condition and the other guests were nice. Veronica was very helpful and provided me with everything I needed for a good amd easy experience. If I visit Taormina again I would like to choose also this accomodation again, thanks for the nice stay.
The bathroom was a little small, especially the shower is not really spacy so the floor next to it gets wet quickly. The Breakfast was really basic and more a snack. Those are only small points as the overall experience was very good - especially for the price and the central location

Verified reviewThe room itself was nice and clean, spatious and it was in a good location close to everything. Had kettle, coffeemaker and snacks. Didn’t really use the kettle or coffee maker though. Had a small shared fridge outside which was helpful.
Shared bathroom that felt gross to be in. Shower was a mission because it wasn’t mounted to the wall so you had to hold it constantly. Water would get everywhere and you’d need to wear shoes and walk slowly so you don’t slip and break your neck. Felt gross. Then had to walk making water prints everywhere. Door handle and locking with key was annoying. Light was really dim and made the room feel really depressing. The curtains of the other bathroom were see through so we got jump scared by a naked man showering on our way back in the evening as the window was right next to the door, facing outside.

Verified reviewThe bedroom was quite clean , it says bed and breakfast but the breakfast is just a sachet of coffee and a biscuit in a wrapper that’s all .
The shared bathroom which had a shower looked like it needed maintenance. The shower is very small and the curtain sticks to you it had mould stains and even the shower basin full of mould .

Verified reviewBeautiful views, close to the city center and great gelateria and one of a few grocery shops in Taormina nearby.
The room was clean, but it lacks some space or furniture where you can put your clothes in. Our bathroom was in the shared hall, but that was stated in the description so we expected that.

Verified reviewThe endry process was easy. Private bath had hot water and is opposite to rooms door . The building located 2 roads above Messina Gate, in a higher level above the central road and it's balcony has a wonderful view of terraces and the hill of Greek theater. Supermarket, restaurants, street food, souvenir, Greek theater, bus station, all are 5 - 10 min distance. It has capsule coffee maker, water heater, fridge.
The room is like photos but all colors are beige. These isn't closet or shelves to put clothes.

It’s a scam, full of mold and a terrible smell, beware that the bathroom looks like you’re in a prison, the bed sheets are stained. Avoid it at all costs!

Verified reviewLocation was close to the center and the space was clean. The B&B employee was reachable by phone.
There was no drinkable water provided. I would not mind if the B&B would cost extra money but there was drinking water provided with the service. Another problem was that Bathroom was connected through a common space/corridor. But the bathroom door(for room no. 1) did not have a functional locking system. What it means is anyone walking through the corridor could enter the bathroom while I was using it.

Verified reviewThe location was amazing, very close to the centre and we had a great view. The coffee machine was appreciated.
We paid for the room with the private external bathroom although the lock didn’t work so we were disappointed as other guests would use our “private” bathroom. The hot water lasted about 1-2 minutes. There was only a sheer material covering the bathroom window which you could see into at night. The power sockets in the room were dodgy. The heater didn’t work very well and the wifi cut out a few times.

Verified reviewLocation is good, very close to the centre. The room was reasonably clean, if a bit bare bones.
There is a lot of mold in the bathroom, honestly, it's pretty bad. The description said there would be parking space in nearby streets, but there was nothing (not just occupied - all spots were reserved for locals), so we had to use a large parking lot 10-20 minutes away
