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 reviewEverything. The location was gorgeous, right on the edge of the Sassi. Apartment was beautifully decorated. Bed was very comfortable. All kinds of extras were provided such as some light breakfast snacks and shower supplies, even including some slippers. Host was very helpful and accommodating as they helped us find parking and allowed us to stay a little longer than was initially planned.

Verified reviewThe room was great at a very nice location. We received assistance with dinner reservations and parking advice. The photos do not do it justice. The ceiling is much higher and there is enough space. Also some simple breakfast. Very clean and nicely decorated. We loved it.
We only had a little issue finding it, because it was mislocated in booking, but we received assistance immediately through whatsapp.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review. happy to have satisfied your stay. we wish you happy holidays

Verified reviewQuiet central location close to historic center. Compact apartment with equipped kitchen.
Likely an error in listing apartment as 430 sq ft because we just came from another 430 sq ft apartment which was a lot bigger. No knife in kitchen.

Verified reviewIt was decorated to a really high standard and had everything you would need. The location was perfect for access to the old part of Matera. And less than a 2 minute walk was the best view of Matera. The hosts communicated well and also left us pastries for breakfast which was lovely.
Absolutely nothing.

Verified reviewTruly fantastic place, highly recommended. A true gem. Location is fantastic. 5 minutes from a parking garage in the new town, yet the apartment is located at the old town within walking distance (restaurants and 007 streets within a couple of minutes). Very beautiful design; elegant and chique. Great bed, very comfy. Exceptionally clean. Great bathroom with fine rain shower. All amenities provided (even slippers). Location is quiet. Hosts are very kind and provide you with a warm welcome - and lovely wine, snacks, water and even breakfast. We would for sure come back!
Nothing at all.

Verified reviewThe apartment was sooo beautiful! Every detail has been very well thought out! Location is great, 30secs from a stunning view. Antonella was on hand to provide information and even organised a taxi to the bus station. Delicious treats left out and the homemade wine was a lovely touch! Highly recommend as a base for Matera :)

Verified reviewThe room was comfortable, the air conditioner very good, and the owners left some pastries and also a bottle of a very good local wine as courtesy for us. Amazing stay!
There is a window above the entrance door from where the daylight comes in. It is not a big issue, but if you need a total blackened-out room for sleeping you might dislike it a bit.
