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.).

SlovakiaThe only downside was parking- no available at the hotel. Once you book your stay, they will send you message with 3 options of parking. We choosed parking behind the city, 30€ per day with shuttle included.Shuttle can take you just in front of the hotel.

AustraliaHonestly—nothing! And I don’t say that very often. Everything exceeded expectations and we wouldn’t change a thing.
We had the most unforgettable stay in Matera. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome and completely at home—warm, friendly, and always ready to help. The accommodation, set in a beautifully restored cave, far exceeded our expectations. It perfectly blended the charm of Matera’s ancient history with modern comforts—everything we needed was thoughtfully provided. We especially loved the recliner seats (ideal for taking in the view or watching TV). And the daily breakfast, served in our own little courtyard, was an absolute highlight—fresh, generous, and beautifully presented. A truly special experience in a magical city. Highly recommended!

United StatesBeautiful place, with very friendly staff. Staying in Matera is a wonderful experience, and even more so in a place like this, located inside one of the Sassi. The room was large, beautiful, and spacious. The breakfast was amazing! generous and delicious. We would stay here again without a doubt! We loved everything! They even surprised us with a lovely gesture: gifting us a nicely packaged artisanal bread on the day of our check-out.

United StatesI had no idea that staying in a cave could be so luxurious. The cave has been converted into a suite with a beautiful, comfortable bed at one end, a small sitting area around the view of the old (dry) cistern below the cave, a very nice seating area around the wall mounted flat screen tv, and a warm, comfortable, clean bathroom. There is wine waiting in the room and other wine in the reception area if there is something else more to your liking. Breakfast was typical southern Italian cuisine with an extensive selection and areas to eat indoors or out. The staff were more than helpful; making dinner reservations, reservations for a walking tour, and even arranging to have some of our laundry done for us. Staying right in an area as unique and historical as the Sassi of Matera is an experience not to be missed. The history of the area may put a few travelers off, but the story and its effect on southern Italy should not be missed.
