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.).

AustraliaMy only suggestion would be to provide ceramic cups for tea & coffee. A kettle is provided but only paper cups to use. We purchased cups from a local store for our own use.
The location in the old town is excellent. Armando is a great host, easy to contact & he made great recommendations of where to eat for traditional food. The room is newly renovated & clean. Would definitely stay again.

SpainPersonally, the only disadvantage for me is not having a block out curtain. I'm very sensitive to morning light. To elevate even more the staying, having some dinner area with a continental breakfast (although is a more complex thing to do) 😋
The location. Is very easy to find, right in the center. But not noisy at all. There's a lot of Parking nearby. It smelled very good. As with all small Italian old houses in the center, one must be aware of the house's accessibility: usually they'll have an interior stairway. It's part of the architectural structure, it's a bit narrow. The amenities were alright, bedroom tv. This included Netflix if you're a series fan that's a plus. It has a small balcony, with natural light. Staff very friendly.

United StatesRooms were somewhat small but for Bari Vecchia that is very typical. I would like to suggest coffee, bottled water daily, shampoo for rooms. There was liquid soap both above the bathroom sink and shower. Upon arrival there were two complementary bottles of water but none thereafter.
The location was fantastic! Very close to restaurants and cafes with many food choices. The cost per night was very reasonable as well!

Great location right in the centre with a lovely cafe around the corner that turns into a wine bar. Sadly there wasn’t a window in our room so things got a bit disorientated at times but comfortable beds!

SpainArvian B&B is excellently located in the historic centre of Bari, very close to the cathedral square. It is comfortable and quiet (though our room lacked much natural light).

DenmarkNothing, it was all lovely!
Beautiful modern apartment in newly renovated historic building in the heart of the old town. The owners put some extra love into all details: nicely decorated, very clean, pillows and mattrass of great quality. The air con works very well while being quiet at night, which is something we appreciated. The location is just perfect, around the corner of a wonderful church square with lots of cafés. It s a really quiet location so we got some proper sleep, without compromising proximity to a lively neighbourhood. The host was very kind and the communication was easy. We hope to come back again!
