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 A/C didn't seem to blow in our room as well as it did in the rest of the house, so it got pretty warm in the bedroom with the door closed, even though it felt fine elsewhere.
The hosts were very kind, the house was walkable to everything we wanted to do in town, and the food provided took care of our breakfast each morning.

United States of AmericaEverything was perfect for our stay!!!!!
Both hosts were so accommodating and went above and beyond expectations for our stay. From the moment we booked, they were communicative and wanted to ensure that we had the best and most comfortable time staying at their accommodation. It really felt like we were visiting friends or family more than just a house we were staying in. The home was clean and very cool to look around in might I add! We will for sure be coming back.

United KingdomIt is a bit of a distance (maybe a mile) outside Charlottesville town centre but I knew that in advance and it is not a difficult walk,
Fairhaven is a lovely and very friendly place to stay, I liked especially the relaxed atmosphere eg the option to make one's breakfast with access to good facilities. Its emphasis on sustainability is great.

GermanyThe location is great – within walking distance of the city center. We felt at home as soon as we arrived. Raven and Flame were very friendly and helpful. In particular we loved: the commitment to being environmentally responsible and the possibility to fix your own (delicious) breakfast at your own time.

United States of AmericaThis isn't really a complaint, but an observation. I am used to sleeping on a firm mattress, so the bed felt too soft to me.
The breakfast food was wholesome and organic. The toiletries were all fragrance-free ;-). The location was quiet with easy access to downtown and the interstate. The hosts were welcoming and helpful.

United States of AmericaThere’s only one thing I didn’t like: Sound carries easily through the vents, so while the guesthouse on the top floor is visually quite separate from the hosts’ home on the bottom floor, we can still hear each other. At least I assume the hosts can hear from downstairs. I could make out conversations at times. I could tell my room (the Tidewater) was above the kitchen, for example. I couldn’t hear anything after 10 PM, it should be said.
Everything was clean and comfortable — bedroom, sitting room, kitchen table, shower. I appreciated that the hosts buy local and/or organic foods and that quiet hours are maintained. The art, the cheerful colors, and the many plants are also nice. Also, Flame was organized wrt arrival time and check-in process. Location was great, a quiet residential neighborhood with a bus stop very close to the house and the downtown mall just a half-hour walk away (or a very short bus ride).

United KingdomFlame & Raven are lovely people , and the rooms in their home are comfortable. Checkin was easy. We were shown around by Flame, who gave us information about getting downtown. You have the use of a very clean, well equipped kitchen, a comfortable dining room, and a living area. Breakfast is provided for you to cook yourself. The bread and peach jam were particularly nice. The owners are very keen on being environmentally friendly, which we very much appreciate.

United KingdomThe bus to the Downtown Transit station (for downtown and the University of Virginia) and for the Monticello Trail only goes once an hour. However, with good planning this is perfectly manageable.
Exceptionally clean and comfortable, in a quiet location easily accessible by bus from downtown and the Monticello trail. The hosts were very welcoming and super helpful and are just downstairs if you need any assistance. Plentiful varieties of tea and coffee available in the well-equipped, clean, and well-ordered kitchen. Holly's Diner and Firefly provided warm and lively evening entertainment and good food within easy walking distance. I would heartily recommend for a stay in Charlottesville!
