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...).

SwedenThe location is truly amazing, with Ortigia just a few minutes walk away. It is also just a short walk from the bus and train station. The whole area felt safe even for a solo traveller. The rooms are very clean, and Alessandra is an amazing host, very helpful and friendly. I wish I would have stayed a few more days in Syracusa.

Alessandra was quick to respond to my messages and even accommodated us for a very late check-in. We've stayed in a number of bed & breakfast on this trip and Alessandra's is the only one who made food/snacks/fresh fruits accessible all the time. The room was spacious, clean and nicely decorated, everything worked.

AustraliaThere is no parking available apart from street parking which is nearly impossible. Parking is our first priority and we wrongly thought even after sending additional questions re parking and being told by the host “ there is parking under the structure “ it is not true. So don’t be fooled like we were. The bathroom is very ordinary the toilet has a Masorater pump and you can’t put toilet paper down it or it will block up. You have to use a waste paper bin yuk Apart from that the bathroom always has a slight sewer smell when you entered it. I would think the waters seals in the traps are ineffective or it has been poorly plumbed. I would not go back to this place or recommend it. Oh and buy the way when you do find a park like we did a long way from the accommodation your likely to be accosted by the local thugs poorly dressed up as parking attendants. They demand payment for what is free parking and when you say it’s free parking they say your car needs protection. So we payed. Welcome to this seedy area!!!!
Breakfast was fine self serve plenty of choice no complaints.

GermanyNo parking available, information here is wrong! We searched for a free parking spot for 30 minutes and had to park 500m away. Room was very very noisy. All sounds from the street are basically in your room, also your neighbour's and all water flushing. Loud music from a bar across the street. Impossible to sleep. Breakfast was the most basic during our Sicily trip. Rooms could need a makeover.
Close to the old town

FranceNot enough hot water for everybody. My husband had a hot shower, mine was lukewarm. The breakfast was poor. And the description of the BnB says that there is a parking place included. There is not. You can park on the street if you are lucky. I was quite upset since a parking place was mandatory for me. You shouldn't note there is a parking place if there is not.
The perfect location, very near Ortigia, the beautiful building with marble stairs and floor
