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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

Absolutely quality place - quintessentially Italian but modern as well. Clean and well equipped. Lovely balcony overlooking old Matera.

Czech RepublicWe really enjoyed our stay. Simona was extremely helpful and friendly. The place has a character, the location was great, we had our own little balcony where we could sit and enjoy the view. It felt like a home away from home.

United StatesWe were given phone numbers to call for taxi and for meeting place. Neither of our phones had service or internet… we would have been stranded at bus drop off if a nice lady had not offered to share her cab. Then we had to find a local with phone service to call regarding meeting us at town square to take us to B and B Would suggest you order cab and send location of meet up for foreign visitors.
Breakfast was nice. Donna Lina (Angelia) and Frederico were lovely and helpful.

The palce itself is very beautiful and cool. Very liveable. The terrace is wonderful and large, with a truly breathtaking view. The position of the room is also perfect within Matera, we couldn't have hoped of anything better. The welcoming from Simona was very much appreciated, gave us a nice initial tour, and provided us with many precious tips for our stay. The breakfast too was good, and offered in a wonderful high terrace in the main square by very sweet people.

SwitzerlandThe room was not to our expected standards, dated furniture and equipment. Plastic shower doors kept falling off out of their rails. The beds were placed near stairs, and under low beams, implying accidents waiting to happen when needing to get up in haste or in the dark. The mat in front of the bed location was dated and unclean.
Very good location, central but quiet, near the sassi. The hostess Simona was exceptionally welcoming, went out of her way to explain the sites and how to manage in town. She is the prize of this location. A ttue angel.

United KingdomThe furniture of the room and the common areas need a refresh, beds are not as comfortable as the price you pay for. Breakfast is not served in the bnb (which is a shame because the terrace would be the best spot in town for that) and they send you to the pizzeria where they provide a very poor meal.
Simona the host was amazing. Great communication before our arrival and very kind in showing us the bnb and all opportunities that Matera offers, good tips for restaurants and attractions. The location is great and very accessible, just few steps into the Sasso Barisano with a lovely terrace.
