Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaOur room was on the first floor, same as reception. Every morning from 5:30am you can hear the pallet jacks and trolleys unloading stock in the grocery store below, the reverberation in our room was actually unbearable. If you are a heavy sleeper or rise early - fine. Otherwise, do steer clear.
Bed was extremely comfortable, lighting was perfect (block out blinds), breakfast is traditional Italian so don't expect a hot breakfast but plenty of pastries, cold meats and yoghurt. They also have a fruit bowl, fully equipped kitchen and fully stocked still/sparkling water in the fridge.

United KingdomWe stayed for 5 nights and every single morning we were woken up with chairs being dragged across a wooden floor on the floors above. We spoke to the staff who said they thought it was perhaps an office and suspected someone was cleaning. Whilst I don’t mind waking up early on holiday I’d rather it wasn’t by the awful sound. Breakfast was nice but not a huge amount of selection and we skipped it a couple of days.
Staff were fab, we were greeted by Jessica who was amazing and gave us the lowdown on Bologna. Camilla was equally amazing and so friendly and gave us some great tips. They were happy to book restaurants for us too. Fantastic location.

United KingdomA tiny thing but maybe some more savoury items at breakfast instead of sweet.
This was a fantastic place to stay in Bologna minutes walk from the iconic medieval towers that dominate the skyline you can never get lost with them to walk towards. All the staff were exceptionally helpful and welcoming we were treated like honored guests. The bedrooms are very comfortable great beds and a decent bathroom and shower all spotlessly cleaned every day. The communal area where breakfast was served is decorated in a delightful and original way and sweets and refreshments were always available. Really can't fault our stay here and would not hesitate to return.

United StatesOur room was small, dark and noisy. We both had difficulty sleeping as thin walls and ceiling seemed to amplify voices and footsteps late into the early morning hours.
Right beside the historic center and two towers of Bologna. The receptionist greeting us was extremely polite and helpful. The reception area was comfortable and available for breakfast and tea after dinner.

SerbiaHorrible noise from the outside.
The breakfast was just ok. Pretty average, but not simple sweet Italian I don't like. Location was excellent. Close to all tourist spots , shops . I would come again unless it was too, too noisy. My room was at 1st floor and first night couldn't sleep as it was Saturday and people enjoyed being out ( to 3.30 a.m.) , but about 6 a.m. the shop under this property started with very loud preparations to open (trucks, workers bringing goods). On Sunday , early in the morning it was the same.
