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 reviewIt was near the old town by foot and parking on site was free of charge. It was clean and the owner very polite. We had access to the back yard to smoke.
The room was small, the hairdryer wasn’t working. The door to the room was thin like a wardrobe door we could hear people talking and taking breakfast in the morning.
Dear guest, Thank you for your review. I'm sorry to read that your stay wasn't perfect. I'm so sorry to hear that the hairdryer wasn't working. You could have let me know. I would have replaced it immediately. I asked you every morning how everything was going, and you always said yes. You booked the room and it met the specifications stated on booking. When you arrived late in the evening, you contacted me because the photos looked larger. I also asked you to contact booking support so they could find a double room that met your needs. Ultimately, you were dissatisfied with my stay. Best regards, Mariella.

Verified reviewLocated just outside the Old Town, very convenient if you have a car and you need to park. The host Mariella was lovely. She was really concerned about our happiness and made us feel really comfortable. Breakfast is served every morning. This place has only few rooms, it feels more like a private retreat than a typical hotel.

Verified reviewSpotless, comfortable, spacious and in the perfect location for exploring Matera. Mariella was a fantastic host who listened to my whims and brought some extra choices for breakfast on the second day. The room was extremely clean, comfortable and quiet. It’s so easy to park nearby at no charge. I strongly recommend it to anyone who seeks a place to stay that combines modern facilities in a beautiful traditional house. You’ll be warmly welcomed by Mariella who works so hard to provide a top-class B&B. A very solid 10/10.

Verified reviewWe hired a rent a car at Bari Airport to visit Matera. Hotel is located near the old town of Matera (about 10 mins walk) which is registered the UNESCO world heritage. Thanks to the hotel location, we could enjoy late evening time and early morning time of Matera which was really beautiful. Hotel owner contacted us in prior to our arrival via WhatsApp and kindly instructed us how to get inside the hotel. Room was spacious, clean, modern, good size of shower cubic with enough hot water and good water pressure (bathroom was also spacious, modern and clean). We stayed in twin bed room, and there was a spare sofa bed so three people can stay easily. Also tea/coffee making facilities were provided with tae bags and biscuits, which was nice!
As Matera is relatively small town against its popularity, therefore, car parking spaces were limited. We were lucky as we could manage to park our car on the street where the hotel is located.

Verified reviewA great stay overall. Room was big and spotless clean with many amenities. Communication with the host was good. Breakfast had both sweet and savory options. The location is great as it is close to the Sassi but also accessible by car/taxi.
