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.).

BelgiumThis place was ideal for us for a two nights stay while discovering Taormina (the old city is in walking distance of 700 m). Ideal for families too, it could easily host a couple plus two little kids. Very tidy, thoroughly cleaned rooms with extra comfy beds. Wonderful breakfast too! Can't recommend enough, we'd glad to be back.

The location is great, just a 15-minute walk to the center. The view from the terrace is breathtaking,which you can enjoy with the great breakfast and also the company of a cute cat. Also a good place to see the sun rise. Charles, the host, was amazing-he can write in reverse direction and speak very good English, always available and ready to help us with anything we needed. The rooms are colorfuly decorated, very beautiful and clean. We fell in love with the place the moment we arrived. There's also a shared kitchen, where guests from all around the world can enjoy like a big family. Parking in Taormina is quite challenging, but don't worry, there's a big parking spot here and Charles can help you with the parking. We will return if another chance back to Taormina.

CanadaI am hesitant to say anything because we really enjoyed our time there. However, I think in our room the mattress and shower stall have reached their expiration dates and could be replaced.
The people and the view. Charles was the perfect host-very kind, hospitable and professional. The view from our Isola room was fabulous. The private terrace is large and the view magical. It’s a short 15 minute walk to the Centro area. The included breakfast was very good. We looked forward to it each morning. The room was large and comfy and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It’s a very boho hippie chic kind of place with lots of ceramic art and plants. A very relaxed and attuned to nature kind of vibe😊

1. The location is good. You need to hike for about 20 minutes to reach there but it’s definitely worth it as you could see the view in different angles. 2. The staffs were friendly, helpful, and speak English very well. 3. The room was clean and it was quiet during the night. 4. You can enjoy breathtakingly beautiful view at the balcony and it would be lovely to chitchat with other travellers from around the globe.
