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 reviewVery comfortable room with a beautiful view. Great breakfast and restaurant for dinner. Staff is very friendly. Grato spa is really nice.
The parking lot could be more organized, as there are no lines and people just park at any angle.

Verified reviewWe have stayed here often so we hoped to get a different room but we got the same one it’s nice but once before we got a room with a balcony for the same price that was nice.
Bathroom could do with a spray of black mold remover . Other than that it was fantastic.

Verified reviewIts an amazing hotel for a nice litte getaway the views where amazing. staff are super friendly.
while sitting on our balcony you cant see the views due to the wall being high. which is a shame but you can see the view by standing on the bench. not the end of the world but would have been amazing to be able to sit at the table to see it because the view is spectacular. there was a wasp nest forming in the balcony.
Dear Amy, Thank you for sharing your experience and for your kind words about our hotel, the view, and the friendliness of our staff. We’re glad to know that your getaway was an enjoyable one. We truly appreciate your observations regarding the wall on the balcony and the wasps’ nest. The view is indeed one of our strengths, and we’re sorry it couldn’t be fully enjoyed while sitting comfortably. We will carefully evaluate possible solutions to improve this aspect. As for the wasps, we have already reported the issue to our maintenance team to ensure prompt action and to guarantee our guests the highest level of comfort and safety. We hope to welcome you back in the future for an even more pleasant stay. Best regards, Front Office Hind

Verified reviewThe location in the centre of the beautiful mountain village is great. The staff is very friendly and courteous. A good breakfast for Italy. In addition to typical sweet dishes (delicious cakes, various croissants and pastries), it also includes ice cream, yoghurt, fruit, bread and cold cuts.
The atmosphere in the hotel (with the exception of reception) is dark and oppressive. Heavy, dark furniture in the room with little natural light. Likewise the beautiful breakfast room. Very romantic at the Bend for dinner in its grotto-like layout. In the morning, almost without daylight, it looks gloomy. The bike cellar is a storage room accessible through the outside area of the restaurant and an employee has to unlock it. A little inconvenient for a self-proclaimed bike hotel.
Dear Guido, We thank you for your words and will certainly take your suggestions into consideration to improve further. Hoping to see you again in our hotel we send you our warmest regards Katerina N Front Office

Verified reviewSituated on a hill in medieval surroundings, you have a wonderful panoramic view of the beautiful countryside. The village is cosy and secluded right next to the small castle and only a few minutes' drive to the gates of historic castle town of San Marino. The location is ideal as a starting point to explore the area. The hotel is very inviting, Italian old building charm, renovated. Secure parking spaces are available outside behind the hotel. Nice clean rooms, small but adequate. The staff are very friendly, helpful and attentive. The small spa (separately to order) is a grotto with stone walls and wood, perfect for relaxing after a long journey. The breakfast is plentiful and beautifully presented. The in-house restaurant Al Mastin Vecchio is in a beautifully decorated authentic wine cellar, good cuisine with competent service. Great ambience for a romantic dinner.
The room was noisy. Noise from the village outside as well as from the hotel inside. Sleeping with the window open is difficult. The fan in the bathroom is definitely too loud and should be replaced. The menu card is imaginatively written, a bit confusing. Could be more concise and beautifully designed. Drinking water dispenser in the spa is not appealing. Instead of plastic and cardboard cups, glasses could simply be provided. The bubble functions did not work properly. Sauna was set a little too hot. Regular checks should be carried out. Nevertheless, the spa is a relaxing experience!
