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 was nice, the bedroom and the entire location was clean. We had every morning coffee and something sweet to eat. We had free parking on the street and acces to a bus nearby.
It was very hot inside the room, the air conditioner should be the next improvement.

Verified reviewAlthough it is called RetroB&B there is no breakfast. I was directed to a local patisserie. There was a coffee machine in the room and a couple of coffee and milk capsules . There was a fridge and water was given and replenishes each day.
No body around to ask for info. Like the buses stop running at around 8.30.-9.0. p.m. So a 15 minute walk up a dark road with unpredictable pavements or a 10Euro taxi, if one can be found.
ok grazie

Verified reviewCoffee and Nutella B-ready bars restocked every day, as well as two bottles of water and an ice tea for the room which I hadn't expected. Good size fridge in room for keep our drinks cool and storing some food items we bought from the local supermarket. Room made up every day and fresh towels supplied after our second night staying there. Large fan above the bed and TV in room which you can connect to Netflix/Now/Rakuten, etc. Great little balcony overlooking street below and hillside in the distance (see photo). Pharmacy, supermarket, shop to by bus tickets and train station all in walking distance (train station walk is about 10 minutes downhill). Host was very friendly and helpful...he didn't speak much English (and we didn't speak much Italian!) but with Google Translate we managed to communicate enough (and he managed to tell us where to buy bus tickets, where the supermarket was, where was good to eat locally without the help of Google). Would certainly stay again.

Verified reviewThe owner takes much pride in his establishment and it shows. It is beautifully refurbished and spotlessly clean. Coffee, tea, juice, water and small snack included. Easy to reach from the train station either on foot or by bus.
A bit of a language barrier but nothing we couldn’t work through with a little patience and good humour.

Verified reviewWhat didn't we like... So much to love! The minute we arrived in Le Spezia we were greeted by Gio who , with his hands full, carried my wife's luggage up the stairs and directly in the room. The space was absolutely huge! It was so clean, it was spacious, the balcony was a perfect touch to enjoy the nights after a long day exploring Cinque Terre. Every morning when we left, Gio greeted us with a bright and joyful " CIAO" with a big smile on his face. Shortly after... Ms Gina followed and she was the perfect start to every morning we didn't know we needed. This BNB was close to everything ( grocery store, bus, train, Centrale). We loved our stay and looking forward to going back!
