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 reviewThis place was perfect to explore rome. It is super close to the Vatican and everything else can be easily reached by the bus. The room was spacious and the bathroom was very modern. The air conditioning worked great as well. The kitchen and backyard are communal and there is a washing machine as well but our whole stay felt like we were by ourselves. The host was super nice and gave lots of tips and recommendations. I would definitely come here again.
There was nothing I did not like about his place.

Verified reviewThe host was amazing. Came to check us in and even showed us around in the neighbourhood as we had arrived late and she wanted to make sure that my son has something to eat before he sleeps. She also messaged us a few times during our stay to ensure everything was good! The property is within walking distance of the Vatican City so perfectly placed to explore Rome and around!

Verified reviewThe place is awesome. The mode, how we can reach our room is first time a bit strange, but dont worry, it will we clear and great solution. Just keep in mind, that one of the phone have to have some battery left to enter the building. Otherwise make a bit difficult. The introduction / recommendation from the owner is worth to hear. She has a homepage, and in the faq you find some great tips. The itinerary we not used, as we were in Rome several times. But as i looked fast, it is also very well planned. The owner is always available, very nice, and give you all the info you need. The room was clean, and comfy. The accommodation is in a great place, you can arrive here from Fiumicino with train + 5-10 min walk We used the train station almost every day (almost, because of of the day was strike). From here you can easily reach the outside areas as well, what i recommend, if you had "enough" Rome, and want to escape for a day. I will definately will take this accommodation next time, when we are here in Rome again.
Nothing, everything was great!

Verified reviewThe room was very nice, quiet and comfortable. The host was amazing and always available if there was a problem. The best thing in my opinion was the location: yes, it's not in the city centre, but it's a 10-15 min walk to the Vatican; good restaurants are close; 5 min walk to Staz. S. Pietro; great connection to important bus lines that bring you to the city centre within 20 minutes. If I were to go to Rome another time, I would book this apartment again!

Verified reviewIt was a great location for visiting the Vatican. Easy to get a bus to other areas of Rome for evening entertainment and sightseeing. It was a lovely apartment - but we only had 3 days in Rome and there is a lot to see so we didn't get to use communal facilities in the apartment much! All was very clean and well maintained. The host was very helpful.
The water in the bathroom took quite a long time to get warm (but it did get there!).

Verified reviewOur stay at the Vatican Fairytale Garden was incredible! Clean facilities and everything was as described. Titti was the best host we've ever had, incredibly helpful and going out of her way to give us great recommendations and itineraries. Location is great, a very quick walk to many nice restaurants and the best gelato we had during our stay! Bus and train stops are also very close by to get to city center easily. Would highly recommend booking here for your visit to Rome!

Verified reviewHost is very friendly, she told us about nice places nearby like where to have breakfast and where is tasty gelato, also gave recommendations on trains and buses routes. Host allowed us to leave out baggage at the place and the room was ready earlier than check-in time. The doors open without a key using a phone, which turned out to be quite convenient. There was free room cleaning every day. The room was clean and comfortable, little garden is beautiful, shared kitchen is well equipped.

Verified reviewThe apartment was beautiful and we had everything mentioned in the description (everything was clean, we had an AC and TV, the bed was comfortable, the furniture was lovely, and the garden was a cute relaxing place). The owner is also a very nice and helpful lady who gave us many tips for our trip (what buses to take, what to visit, wonderful restaurants and gelato, etc.) and helped us with whatever we needed. The location is very close to the Vatican, a train and bus station and many restaurants and other facilities.
We didn't have any problems.

Verified reviewThe location was fantastic, and for the most part, I was able to walk most places. Being in a local neighbourhood offered a different aspect to my first visit to Rome. The facilities were excellent. The room was a good size and nicely decorated. Having access to a kitchen was a bonus. My host was very helpful, even before I arrived in Italy. She sent instructions on how to get to the property and then on meeting in person provided helpful information on how to get around Rome and ideas where to eat locally.
There is nothing I disliked.
