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.).

It was hot and took a while to cool down but take that with a grain of salt bc I’m American and used to everywhere being on high ac in the summer.
Dear Ashley, Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really happy you enjoyed the location, the space, and the patio and that you felt well taken care of. Yesterday It was indeed an exceptionally hot day, and the air conditioning might have taken a bit longer to cool down the space initially. Once it reached the right temperature, though, I hope it provided a comfortable environment for you to relax in. It was a pleasure hosting you Regards, Rosario

Verified reviewFirst class B&B at a five to ten-minute walk from the railway station and the old town. An elegant room, carefully renovated and decorated in modern style with lots of hints of local tradition. Impeccably clean and well cared for. The bed most comfortable. Excellent breakfast with a variety of homemade local delicacies like il pasticciotto pugliese. Rosario is a most welcoming and devoted host and always willing to help. The atmosphere in his B&B is very relaxed and friendly. I really enjoyed my stay and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Lecce.

Verified reviewGreat location, very close to the old town of Lecce. The host, Rosario, was very helpful and easy to communicate with. He seemed genuinely interested in his guests, and gave good advice on parking options. We always got a parking space in the streets around the apartment, even on Friday and Saturday night, so no issues at all. The room was clean and comfortable. We didn't have breakfast, so can't comment. There was wine, beer, yoghurt etc in the fridge, which you could buy. Handy if you arrive late, although there's also a supermarket at the end of the street if you want to stock up.
The bathroom from the next room juts out into the room we were in, and we could hear everything that happened there...unfortunately the person staying there was on the same time schedule as us, so we heard every time they went to the bathroom, turned on taps, shower etc.. There's no sound proofing. It was a bit disturbing to be honest. Other than that, it was good.
Dear Jane, thank you for your feedback, for appreciate the service in the room and location. About your disappoint caused by the noise of next room, first of all i apologize but i think it was only a case, never before i received this advise by other guest. Regards, Rosario
