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.).

AustraliaOnly one small issue was the bed kept separating as it was two single mattresses pushed together to create a double size.
The property was in a terrific spot, perfectly clean and even had access to outdoor seating to enjoy the afternoon sunshine! The apartment was perfect for the two of us, with a great bathroom and kitchenette.

ItalyThe only point I should say is that the lack of a refrigerator was a challenge. Although before booking the room I knew about this issue. However, I think it can be a good idea to mention it. Overall, the room just had one disadvantage.
First of all, I appreciate the respectful behavior of the landlord (Gianluca). He is so supportive. The room is so clean, neat and also new. As I know, many hotels and apartments in Potenza are so old but it is a renew room.

United KingdomThe shared bathroom could be a challenge if all apartments are in use.
Interesting history to the building and its hydraulic lift. Quirky - the security includes geese in the car park which I found comforting! Very close to the historic centre of Potenza - you don’t have to climb too many stairs!

GermanyThe owner keeps some goose in the parking area. They have a tiny little water basin, no grass and it's a universe away from what those animals need for a happy life. I felt sorry for them. They shouldn't live like that.
I had not a good experience in that house and it started before I arrived when the owner told me that he will decide after my arrival if I can bring in my dog, because he have to check the health status of him. In my entire life I never was told that. For no reason he suggested that incredible idea that my dog could sleep in the garage. He is asking 10 euros for the dog, but this price wasn't shown when I booked the room. That was mentioned at the email confirmation on page 176 (really long and in Italian). He also wanted some more money for the early check in. But the room was already finished when I booked. The room was very small and you could hear all the neighbours. I barely slept. Sharing a bathroom is always a special thing, but I knew that before. Next morning I couldn't enter it for 30 minutes because it was blocked by another guest. A day before i have been in another house, same price, 30 sq meter rooms and no extra for the dog. The same I had the day after when I booked another room (and i got an entire house). So I can tell that this room is overpriced. With all the extra costs i could easily go to a better place, without hustle, discussions and including the dog. But I am travelling on a small budget and usually even the cheapest houses are ok. The hotel is in a safe area and you can park there. The house itself has an interesting architecture which I liked. The owner offered his garage for my hiking cart ( for free), which was very helpful and he donated 5 euro to my social project Trees of Memory by cutting off the price for the dog, after I complained massively about the extra cost strategy. To be honest. I wanted to cancel and asked him to give me back my money, so I could go somewhere. After that he upgraded my room with an extra bed. I still don't know why, because I am on my own and the dog sleeps on the floor. But anyway Thanks for all of that.

CanadaThe room was exactly as advertised - it met all of our expectations. We cannot think of anything that required any upgrading.
Location was great, close to lifts to the upper part of town. Good coffee shop and a small grocery store next door. Gianluca was terrific. He helped us move in, gave us a nice introduction to the area, to some unique trees and some interesting feathered friends. He even took us to our car rental agency!! He was friendly, outgoing and humourous. In spite of the fact that he knew little English and we knew even less Italian, Google translate filled in the gaps. The room was spotlessly clean and well maintained. Parking was right outside the back door in a dedicated parking area - very convenient. Nice patio area, as well, on the way to the parking area.

MaltaNothing important. Could I suggest a kettle, if only in the communal area, with basic tea/ coffee making facilities, which may be helpful in colder months.
Friendly welcome from hosts. Quiet, good view and convenient for the city centre (Centro storico), which can be accessed by a short walk to the lift or by climbing 154 steps to keep fit! Bathroom is very well appointed. A bar next door is open from early until late evening. If arriving by train into Central station, take the little FAL train to Citta station (roughly every hour) for €1.05. 4 minutes walk from apartment.Walking with luggage is impossible and the famous escalators are unreliable.

United KingdomShared (between 3 rooms) bathroom was expected if a little weird, not sure why the renovations wouldn't make some en suite facilities. However it was clean amd well equipped.
This offers excellent value for money, see past the renovation works on the outside of the building and you'll realise that, for the money, safe off street parking and a clean fresh room are all you need.
