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 was such an incredible experience staying in a cave apartment. It was such a beautiful unit in how the lighting was designed. The unit is much larger than the pictures and our family really enjoyed this unique experience. It’s easy to get around to all the sites from this location. Everything was exceptional and one of the best accommodations we have ever booked! We would definitely stay again.

FANTASTIC cave room in the best location! The room was absolutely amazing. I’ve stayed in a lot of places and this was the coolest place I’ve ever stayed. The staff was so helpful, went above and beyond to help when our car broke down, gave excellent restaurant recommendations and a parting gift. Couldn’t recommend this place more!!

SwitzerlandIt’s difficult to remove all the ‘sand’ from the room, but slippers are provided. I would have appreciated the greeter - Antonio - explaining the room to me, not my accompanying friend. Maybe it’s a culture thing, or a language thing…
Such a magical place to stay. They have done a nice job creating a relaxing environment. The shower is amazing! Lovely toiletries and drinks provided. Nicely located and the host I chatted with via message was really nice, although I wish the answers were a little more prompt.

A good experience living in the cave style room but large and clean. Check in is easy and we feel welcome even we arrive a little late in the day. Location is very good, since the car can send us to the hotel (only a small walk from the street), easy access to restaurants.

SwitzerlandA bit difficult to find - don’t bring a heavy suitcase as there are lots of steps to get to the property!
The room was very stylishly designed and very spacious, in a quiet street. The check-in process was quick and easy. There was no breakfast available at the property but we found excellent pastries and cappuccinos on the sunny terrace of cafe Tripoli just a few minutes walk away.

CanadaWe had 'no' dislikes. We loved everything about this boutique hotel ! So centrally located and close to the main piazza. We enjoyed the small patio area just outside our room. Also, nice copper touches and the basin in the washroom.
Who would have thought a cave can be so authentically beautiful and comfortable! The room is large, spacious, quiet, very clean. The accommodation provides ample of towels, bathroom accessories, courtesy umbrellas, and plenty of pressure and hot water from the rain shower. We love the attention to details, the decor, and the ambient lighting effect.

IsraelStaying at a sassi has the only disadvantage of having to go up and down hundreds of steps. But it is worth the effort.
We liked everything, EVERYTHING!- except the steps to arrive to our sassi. But we decided that a taxi was a good investment, and we solutioned the problem. The rooms are amazingly decorated, confortable beds, a bar plenty of everything you can desire, (and everything included in the price), the staff super helpful. We loved the place!

United StatesI absolutely loved my stay at Enotrio. The cave room we stayed in was beautiful, down to every stylistic detail. The room was large, very clean, and quiet. The shower was amazing and rejuvenating. Huge bathroom with free toiletries. The bed was a little squishy for us since we prefer firmer beds but was not a huge issue. The minibar was the best minibar I've come across and was so great for our stay. We enjoyed the included wine at the courtyard tables that were right outside our door for a nice evening. Host was responsive. Great location for walking to sights and main parts of Matera. Cannot wait to come back!!

AustraliaI like a light breakfast but for those expecting something more lavish, pre arrange it.
This is a superb collection of apartments with delightful decor and accommodation that is definitely comfortable during the heat of the summer. The location is a little oasis just below Main Street and very quiet with little passing foot traffic. A few steps up from road but suitcase’s can be managed with a little bit of help. what a delightful mini bar gesture !
