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...).

IsraelIt’s a great boutique accommodation place with a very personal and professional touch. The room is fully equipped with everything you need. I stayed for a night but it more than enough to stay even for a week. The location is amazing!! Right in the center and 2 minutes from the train station. Highly recommended if you are in the area

AustraliaGuests should be aware that there's no signage on the street or reception desk, so you need to be sure of the address, and have the phone number handy just in case.
The location is perfectly central, and the suites are idyllic. Ours was well fitted out with kitchen equipment, including a microwave, electric kettle and a quite large refrigerator. Our bathroom was also well equipped, including facecloths. The suite had a cosy atmosphere in which we felt at home. There was ample space for parking if you'd reserved in advance. Best of all was the warm welcome by the proprietors, who also gave us sightseeing tips and a list of recommended restaurants for dinner and breakfast.

United StatesThis isn't a criticism, just a heads-up for fellow travelers. My driver from the airport couldn't get GPS to recognize the address, and there is no sign on the outside of the building, so it was just a but tricky to find. But if you look on Google Maps and go to "street view" you'll see two gates (pedestrian and vehicle) - that's the place. It's in a nice, quiet alcove, and it felt very safe. It's important to let the hosts know when you're arriving so they can let you in.
I liked the size of the room and the fact that there was a table and a desk. I'm doing research as I travel, so those spaces are important to me. The location was fantastic - so close to the train station, but also really right in the midst of the "action" in terms of the beautiful old city. Avital was such a friendly hostess - very responsive - very helpful with suggestions and information - just super sweet!

FranceNice central location with a spacious room, a clean and modern bath, and a very comfortable bed. The hosts accommodated our late arrival with grace. The shared large kitchen was well-equipped and provided a lovely place to enjoy breakfast purchased from an excellent local bakery. We only stayed for the night in transit, but we would have liked to stay longer.

PolandWe needed some nice place in center of Pavia for overnight stay and we have found R & A Minerva Suites as perfectly suitable for our needs. It's in the best location very near to the train station, in the same time there are plenty of parking spaces on the streets with quite low parking fee. We have been also offered paid parking spot inside the yard in case of problems with parking outside. The room was perfectly supplied, very clean and quite. The beds are comfortable. We have been offered fresh and cool water, there is also kitchen area where it's possible to cook something, as well as make caffe' and grab some snacks. There was also a coffee machine for our private use in the room. Communication line with the staff was nice and straightforward via WhatsApp. I highly recommend this place to stay during your visit in Pavia.
