How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

No breakfast. There's some pastries (the ones wrapped in plastic that never get old) in the common area
Michele communicates really well and is willing to help you with any need. The room was in pristine condition

We had a wonderful stay at Michele's apartment. He was an incredibly attentive host, meeting us early in the morning to arrange our luggage before check-in hours and providing detailed information about what to see, how to reach the bus stop, and other useful insights about the city. The location is perfect for travelers, just a 5-minute walk to the central train station and both Interbus and Etnabus stations. While it's a bit farther from the city center (about 20-minutes walk), it's not an issue if you have time to walk and explore, but having the stations so close was a huge advantage when arriving in Catania with luggage or needing to catch a train or airport bus quickly. The apartment is in a safe area, newly renovated, and extremely clean. We loved starting our day with a delicious espresso and cornetto, which is provided by host. Highly recommended!

We had a final one-night stop-over in Catania, travelling by train. This was absolutely the best stop! We had to drop our luggage early and check in later in the evening. This totally no problem, as our host Michel was absolutely enthousiastic on welcoming us. Also in the evening - after a long day we were tired - he was extremely attentive. Asked if we had had dinner yet, - we hadn't. And directly offered to make a reservation in a very nice place only a few minutes away. This service and warm welcome is really a total bonus. The place itself is less than a kilometer away from the bus-station and train station, so it's very convenient for a short stop-over. The rooms are clean, modern, nice, well-equipped and the showers are perfect. We had a great stay - and certainly recommend this place.

I’m so glad I chose this B&B during my stay in Catania! My room was very modern, bright, clean and comfy. The building was very secure with complimentary coffee and snacks every day, located a short walking distance to the city centre. Michele was a fantastic host from start to finish - very accommodating, welcoming and friendly. I felt very safe as a solo traveller and thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. I highly recommend this B&B to others staying in Catania and I hope to stay again in the future.

Michele was very Kind. I Made a mistake and took the key with me and he came to look for it to the airport. Being always very kind and comprehensive. Thanks a lot Michele. The place is clean and in good state and very close to the train station and to the buses that go to airport. So I recommend it.

We had a very pleasant stay at this nice and clean B&B. Bed was very comfortable, renovated rooms with a balcony. Finding a parking was easy. It’s a 20 minute walk to centre, 5 minutes by car. The host was very welcoming and provided us with everything we need. Highly recommended…

We needed a place close to the railway station and bus terminal and this was the perfect location. Our host was very friendly and went out of his way to check us in early when we arrived earlier than expected. The room is modern and was to a high standard. We highly recommend Flavi Home B&B if you need to be close to transport options in Catania.
