Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

This is a little gem. Cosy, comfy rooms are set within a beautiful courtyard. Breakfast is simple but delicious. Coffee is good. Owners are friendly and they have an even friendlier dog!

Casa Barbero was clean and close to the town (only 12-15 min walk). Antonio and Monica are top hosts, also little cute Lola 🐶was lovely. Room was big and had all the amenities. Breakfast was also good!

United KingdomThe hotel is a 20 minute walk from the centre and only a 20 minute walk to the Metro and also the Circumetnea train station. The rooms are around a pretty courtyard providing a lovely spot for breakfast. We stayed in Bianco which was a beautiful and spacious room and very comfortable.

United KingdomBooked a twin room. Got a double bed plus a foldaway bed that was not comfortable. Location wise the hotel is only 0.9 miles from the centre but the route is shabby and Catania has a serious litter and fly tipping problem. Not the hotels fault but it is a downside. We found it better to walk a short way in the opposite direction and catch the Metro.
Breakfast was excellent and lovely to be able to take it in the courtyard. Lola is gorgeous (dog) and checks that everyone is happy. Elena looks after you wonderfully and is a great hostess.

Loads of character. Beautiful garden to eat in. The room was really well set out, bed comfy, fridge and air conditioning really effective

PolandInstructions on how to reach the room via WhatsApp not clear, actually very confusing and frustrating. The whole B&B is like a maze. A lot of walking with heavy luggage, narrow staircase. Breakfast very disappointing- l could only have 1 egg, the rest is typical Sicilian food, sweet and full of gluten. Not much choice. Mattress too soft, weird pillows - woke up with a lumbar pain. City dirty, dilapidated and ugly, air very polluted.
Clean, spacious room, well furnished. Nice bathroom, well equipped. Beautiful little garden with gigantic monsteras in patio. Cozy balcony with a table and chairs. Good air conditioning.
