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.).

Czech RepublicThe location is amazing. I mean, the view of San Gimignano is something else. You can see it while eating your breakfast, you can see it from the swimming pool, and you’ll never get tired of it. What’s more, even though it doesn’t seem like it, it only takes about 30 minutes on foot to get to San Gimignano, so it is possibly faster than finding a parking spot! :)

United KingdomWould have preferred a buffet breakfast to choose items ourselves; having to ask staff to put items on a plate was a bit awkward. Some simple fruits, yoghurt, pastries, hams, cheeses and coffee machine for us to help ourselves would mean less hassle for us and Barbara and her team. The walk to San Gimignano was a little too far in the heat of the day (35-40 mins) and parts of the track were a little difficult underfoot in the evening/night
The owner and staff were lovely, Barbara, Silvia, Steve and our housekeeper were kind, considerate and v helpful. The views spectacular and the swimming pool clean and well positioned. Good restaurant only 5 mins walk away and property only 5 mins drive to many wineries and restaurants. Nice drive and entrance through automatic opening iron gates Room was air conditioned and quiet. 5 mins drive from San Gimignano and the Coop for good supplies Nice supply of beers and wines from reception

United KingdomA few deviations from what the property was described as on the booking site made our expectations not fully met. There was no restaurant within the walking distance (the site mentioned 3 of them - but there was just one, and it was closed on the day we arrived). The property does not have a coffee shop as stated in the description. There is a kitchen and a make shift shop in the reception building which sells packs of biscuits and bottles of while and has a fridge with drinks (reception is open for a few hours in the mornings and afternoons). The biggest disappointment was probably breakfast. It is doled out by the receptionist from the trays separated by the guests with a counter and even to get a top up of water one has to wait until other guests are served in front of the queue. Provided that the lady is very diligent and describes to each guest the content of each tray, it takes a while queuing in a tiny stuffy house (it was only April!) At least water could be put out for an easy reach, I would reckon. The quality of breakfast offering was subpar: despite a variety of pastries, there was not a good selection of savoury staples. The omelet was cold, salami and prosciutto looked like they've been there for some time. Euro 18 per person per day for this sort of selection was quite unreasonable, given that the price of the stay was high enough compared with other places where we stay. We ended up with a comfortable room at the end, but we had to ask for it. The rooms were much smaller than on the picture, windows were quite small and the smell was a bit mouldy. We appreciated being relocated to the room we liked. The bottomline is that we enjoyed our stay but just a few minor adjustments would make it really 10-star (as the hosts requests the guests to rate the property in their communication). I guess this is what lead to a sort of disappointment: the property is solid 9 as per booking com standards, but does not reach its present rating of 9.7.
The most attractive features of our stay were the view toward San Gimignano towers lit at night and the comfortable courtyard with the swimming pool (no public toilet in the common areas though which is not very comfortable). THe garden furniture and the sun loungers are thoughtfully arranged and create a welcoming atmosphere. The bed was comfortable as well, the duvet and all, we had a good night sleep. A kettle and tea bags left in the room were thoughtful, and the lady on site, Sylvia, brilliantly warm and cheerful. A drive to San Gimignano was about 8 minutes but the property was quiet and secluded among the hills.

AustriaYou need to be aware of the relatively short period of check in hours (extra charge for coming later). we could manage to adapt our program so it was no problem, but be aware.
The compound is just beautiful, one can see a great passion to make every detail perfect. Breakfast is just excellent, likely one of the best I had so far. The pool area is really nice and made our stay during a very hot period very comfortable. Parking spaces available.
