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.).

AustraliaNothing really, we enjoyed all of our stay
We had a great time at Suite Sofia. Close to train station. Ideally located in the old part of town. Very quiet and comfortable bed, very clean. Our host kept in touch about all things to make our stay memorable. Great shower.

United KingdomAbsolutely nothing. We would definitely stay here again if visiting Lucca in the future.
Situated within the walled city the gorgeously renovated Suite Sofia is in a fantastic location just minutes from the station so not far if hauling heavy suitcases. With a corner view we were pleasantly surprised to find this well-equipped accommodation had a separate bedroom and was hosted by Massimiliano who provided us with lots of tips on places to eat for lunch and dinner...which we did visit. He was the most accommodating host and was contactable if we had any questions. I can honestly say that it was by far the best accommodation we stayed in during our whistle stop tour of Tuscany.

AustraliaThe location is excellent, right in town with bars, cafes and restaurants close by, it's at the end of one of the main streets so a close walk to most things. The apartment is spacious and the bed comfortable. Self check in was easy and although a lively area the place was quiet. The host is friendly and offers good recommendations. I enjoyed staying here and would happily again!

Czech RepublicNo complaints from us!
We really loved this studio apartment, in an attractive historical building, with a gorgeous wooden beamed ceiling, well equipped kitchen, nice stylish interior, and it was also nice to find some coffee and little breakfast toasts and jam that had been left for us. The apartment is right within the city walls. It is just a short distance from the train station, and so central you can walk everywhere. We really enjoyed our stay there. Super, friendly communication with the host Massimiliano, who was in constant contact if we needed, he recommended an amazing pizza place a few minutes away by foot, 'Da Umberto' it was great. Thank you Massimiliano for your kind ways! Hope we will be back! Lucca is perfect! Naty & Kevin ;-)

BrazilJust a little reminder folks should know: stairs to the first floor apartment, small step in the bathroom with a small shower area. Nothing terrible but could be a problem if you have elderly people or someone with mobility problems.
Love it but the Amazing location made our visit to Lucca even better. Short walk from the train station.

United KingdomA very small thing but the bathroom, on a whole was lovely, very clean and lovely towels (plenty of them too) it was a little cramped in the shower and wash basin area but I know from experience this is quite typical. It was fine, but the shower leaves very little room. However - the rest of the apartment makes up for it!
A great apartment right in the heart of Lucca! close by to all the local stores and pasticerria's. The apartment was comfy and cosy with all the little extras. The host even messaged me on the day to make sure I found the apartment and there wasn't any issues - very thoughful. The keypad/entry and key collection was all very simple and works so well. Must prefer than arranging times to meet someone. The bed was so comfy and the sheets were very expensive!

Czech RepublicA little tighter bathroom, but nothing that would make it difficult to use it comfortably.
Perfect location in the outer center of the city, everything within easy reach (restaurants, train station, bus). Due to the location on the first floor at a busy intersection, with the windows open you become a part of the city, which I don't consider a fault, but rather a characteristic of the accommodation.

Everything was perfect! :) The suite sofia is a charming apartment in a lovely city! :) The location is perfect! Everything can be reached within walking distance. The property is clean and well equiped. The owner is very kind and absolutely helpful before and during the stay! Massimiliano was always ready to help us! We also got a lot of information about the apartment and the location prior to arrival. It was absolutely easy to follow. There are also very good restaurants, coffees and even an amazing bike rental company (chrono bike) close to the property! We are grateful for having a wonderful time at Lucca! :)

CanadaChatter from restaurants on one side of property continued until 11 PM and locals met on the bench below bedroom window to chat each night! If you are a light sleeper, you need to shut windows to shut out the sound.
Suite Sofia is a cozy one bedroom apartment located within the walls and primarily pedestrian city of Lucca. It was a 10/15 minute walk from both the train station & bus terminal. Location was fantastic at corner of Corso Garibaldi and Via S. Girolamo- cappuccino and croissants down Via Garibaldi, gelato shop across the street, multitude of small cafes within view from the windows, PAM market 3 blocks away, access to the ramparts/ walls for walking around the outside of the city 2 blocks away. Lucca is a fascinating maze of labyrinthine streets with homes, shops, cathedrals, amphitheatre, piazzas. We loved sitting at the dining table looking out the windows at the activity in the streets. Massimiliano was very helpful.
