Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

United States of AmericaThe room i had the doors are a bit stiff to close, and the shower pressure isn't that strong either.
Its right next to the beach, less than 5 minutes to walk to the beach. Plenty of cafes and shops in walking distance that's about 10-30 minutes of walking.

United States of AmericaNoisy neighbors that came in late. An up front reminder to late guests on quiet hours would be helpful. They were blasting music until 11:30pm.
It's a beautiful location. Very roomy. There was a Keurig coffee maker with pods, which was nice.

United States of AmericaIt was a little disappointing that the pool wasn't available (but we were told beforehand). They didn't tell us, though, that for two full days there'd be loud drilling and pounding for some sort of remodel on the room just above us. Hopefully it's all finished now, though. Might be worth asking.
It was so clean and the location was great! The bed was also very comfortable. Loved seeing the ocean from the balcony!

United States of AmericaThe plumbing was bad. Standing water in the shower, slow drains, and unpredictable hot water. Plugs for chargers were in all the wrong places. No A/C so not a destination as the temps climb (top floor unit would warm up quick!). WiFi was really not functional.
The location was awesome, just steps from the beach. The unit was clean and decorated nicely. The private patio was amazing. It was a great space with lots of windows (fresh air and light!). It really made a great first impression.

United States of AmericaMy only complaint was the lack of amenities in the kitchen. They lacked food storage so if we had leftovers from cooking we had to very much improvise how to store them. We ended up going to the grocery store for some food storage. They didn’t have a cookie sheet so it was difficult to warm food up in the oven. We had read in past reviews that the coffee pot with four pods was not cutting it for other guests so we brought our own coffee pot all together in order to make a sufficient amount of coffee for four adults each morning. Overall it just felt like it was very, very bare minimum in the kitchen.
My husband and I booked this trip to take my elderly parents and two young children to the beach. It was such a wonderful weekend. The unit we stayed it was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The location from the beach was so convenient and the easy parking made it easy to access your vehicle and get to other parts of town.

United States of America- Kuerig pod coffee maker only, would be nice to offer a french press or drip device & filters - Hairdryer is a really small travel size one, kinda dried my hair out, recommend bringing a serum to protect the hair if you want to use it - Safe in the closet was out of order
Stayed in Villa 9 in late January, the groundfloor suite next to the pool. Each unit has its own parking spot right next to the building. Loved the location - right across from the beach & walkable to Carlsbad, sunset visible from the suite. Walked to coffee shops for breakfast. Felt safe getting back alone at 3am, the streets were empty, just a few cars hanging out at the beach parking lot but no camper vans and no weird energy or noise. Huge fridge & lovely kitchenette. Security cameras overlooking pool & suite entrance.

United States of AmericaDidn't realize the property didn't have a/c, wasn't a big deal due to it being winter but it was still a bit on the warm side.
Wonderful location and a very cute property! Parking was a nice bonus and the common areas were very clean and enjoyable.

United States of AmericaNoise from other rooms (mostly above) and staircase outside of building. A little worn and a little outdated. Not luxurious, but more than comfortable enough to be a “home away from home” for a short period of time.
Unit #2. Outstanding location. 50 yards to the beach. 1 block from Carlsbad city center. 1 parking spot (for small car). Fully equipped kitchen. Gas BBQ. 2 full bathrooms. Friendly and helpful staff. Relatively quiet at night. Comfortable beds. Ceiling fans. Hot shower with plenty of water pressure. Heater worked because it got down to upper 40s at night. Three TVs.

United States of AmericaSound proofing needs to be better, particularly between the room and the office as we could hear all conversations in the office. There was also a lot of noisy footsteps above us starting before the sun came up. We would also suggest a rack in the shower for soap, etc. since leaving it on the shower floor is not acceptable.
The location is excellent, especially for the cost.
