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...).

BrazilThe only downside is that the window faces the street and there is only a blackout curtain so if you want privacy you have to deprive yourself from natural light :/

United States of AmericaThe room was a little on the small side. The inside door trim was coming off the wall from catching on the door lock mechanism. The fridge is a bit loud at times.
Location was perfect. Central but quiet without the hustle and bustle of downtown. Very walkable to downtown. Perfect for walking my pet around town. Decor was nice and minimalist, but still warm and cozy. Love the little kitchenette, had everything I needed. Bathroom was nice and spacious.

PhilippinesStreet Parking is a hit or miss. Some days you might get lucky to park in the street close to the unit building. Some floorings are not of same level. Have to be extra careful not to miss a step in the kitchen and in the main bedroom.
The unit upstairs (3 bedroom/2 bath) is clean and bright. The living and dining areas have the open concept, so it is a good space to hang out. The unit has a pottery Barn feel-like interior and vibe, very nice cool relaxing color scheme. Location is about a 9 minute walk to Arlington plaza on the other end of State St. Easy to get hold of the property manager by text or phone call.

United States of AmericaThe view from the bed to the windows. The main window by the bed is of the neighbors wall and roof. Not much for a view. However the window directly over the sink looks right into the neighbors living room. So if you’re in bed, better be dressed or covered. Better to keep the blinds closed.
Convenient location. Very simple access. Cute and cuddly.

United States of AmericaZERO privacy in the bathroom is a real problem and a huge design flaw. If you must have a siding barn door for ADA purposes, at least make it large enough to overlap without huge gaps on the ends for more privacy. The hook lock seems very unnecessary.
The bed, pillows and bedding were SO exceptional comfy we didn't want to get up!

United States of AmericaAll in all, we loved the space, however every place is going to have its downsides. Something’s that bothered us were the parking spaces and the shower. Shower was quite weird as there is no door to close the shower and the rock bottom to not slip is never really a good rendition. The parking spaces are so tiny it’s encouraging someone or something to hit your car.
The property was nice and modern, truly beautiful place and environment. Loved the comforter on the bed and the tv and the amount of control we had over the technology in the room. Although we checked out past the normal schedule, the staff was incredibly polite about allowing us to gather our stuff and exit, which I incredibly respect.

United States of AmericaI think the neighbors were a bit loud but that is to be expected and there isn't much the property can do about that. As far as the amenities, I thought the apartment had everything I needed. The only thing I might suggest is getting a full sized ironing board. The one in the room kept collapsing and it wasn't large enough to iron a suit or dress comfortably. Other than that I would definitely say it met my expectations.
I loved how close to State St. the apartment was, it made it really easy for us to wander down there for dinner. I really appreciated that I didn't have to pay for parking either since it was a residential area.

South AfricaThere is no dust bin. The shower power was weak. The sheets could be ironed. Very far away from state street main area. Lovely quiet street.
Very clean and well appointed. Ideal for an overnight stay. Parking in the street was easy. Good coffee machine and fridge and microwave and added bonus.
