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...).

IndonesiaIt's our first time in Matera. And we do love it! Our room is like semi cave but it modernized, it is unique experience for our kids. Not to far from the station and really right before the sassi. We love the view! Breakfast also nice, with plenty of bread, cookies, & cakes! Also pizza 😄

HungaryThe staff weren't exactly helpful on the phone when the taxi driver took us to a different location.
The location had great views. It's a bit difficult to find. Be prepared for lack of street names in the Sassi. The buffet breakfast was excellent - having savoury options is a plus in Italy. the video sent to us before our visit helped find the B & B.

United Arab EmiratesThere is nothing to not like we had a great stay here
This is an amazing location with a fantastic view, we took the smaller room but despite other reviews I can say it’s perfect (it’s small because of the nature of the building which adds to its charm and authenticity) the host communication was great and always helpful the shower a little small but fine and very good (I’m 6”5 and managed just fine- we loved the terrace and watched the sun go down as we relaxed

IrelandNothing. It was fabulous
This was certainly one of the nicest places I have stayed in. We had a beautiful apartment (The White Hose) with a huge shower, dressing room bedroom and kitchen. It had a fabulous terrace with the most fantastic view of Matera..it is a typical cave hotel in the centre of this amazing cave town. Would come back just to stay here again.

United StatesEverything was absolutely perfect. And the view-WOW!!. The pictures on the site it appears to be in the distance-it is not! It is right out your window! Location was just steps away from the central area. Breakfast, which was wonderful, was served in an actual cave or option of a cute outdoor courtyard. We parked at Via Rocco Scotellaro Parking lot, a secure facility for E25/day and a very short walk to the accommodation.

AustraliaBreakfast was okay but could improve a bit. The room service could be better as they did not vacuum or clean my room during my three night stay. WIFI was shockingly slow and interrupted.
Clean room and good size bathroom Close to the old town busy areas. Kettle in the room was of good quality.

Private bathroom, fridge in the room with small bottles of cold water (this saved us in extremely hot day). Breakfast in a cave hall was incredible. Nothing to complain. Thank you very much.

CanadaEverything was perfect.
Everything was amazing. The staff were very proactive with their communication, making check-in a breeze. They were also very nice, and considerate people. The location of the property cannot be beat. It has great views, is very central, yet is still very quiet. The room was very nice, clean and modern. We loved the shower, and the bed. We also loved the terrace and the balcony. We also really appreciated the morning breakfast. The fruit, the pastries, the focaccia bread, and the coffee (cappuccino) were excellent. We also were thankful that the staff contacted a Taxi for our departure. We felt very fortunate to have booked Le Vie Del Mosto. I can't imagine another place matching the price, location, facilities, and staff.
