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...).

RussiaThe deposit, $295 has not been paid back yet. David said It would return to me autmatically after we checked out. It is only annoying. If It took while,he should say it.
The rooms are cozy and comfortable. The supermarket is at the basement,which is nice. The metro station is about 10 minutes walk away. It is not bad.

United States of AmericaThe apartment was clean and the heated pool was amazing. They had laundry soap available for us. Dave was awesome! He answered all our questions and even brought us extra towels . He met with us at the garage, directed us to our Parking spot, and even walked us up to our apartment. He is such a great host.

United States of AmericaIt was extremely pricey. Confusing layout of the building. We wanted to cook but realized the kitchen wasn't fully equipped. The bathroom door didn't lock. And they only gave us one key and one fob. (There were 4 of us, it would've been helpful to have one more set!)
This is an apartment building that lists unrented flats to travellers. You will run into tenants on the elevator and in the parking garage! I guess it's fun to pretend I lived in LA for a bit lol We had a car and they gave us a convenient parking spot near the elevator. But the walk from the elevator to the apartment was quite far! Also the layout of the building is confusing so it's easy to get lost. There are actually 2 buildings! Our room was 2-308. We bothered a tenant when we accidentally tried to get into 1-308. We had a 2 bedroom flat with a sofa bed that could sleep 6 people total. It's a quiet apartment and the internet was fast. The rooftop and pool was pretty but we hardly spent time there because it was too cold. There's a bargain supermarket downstairs (kind of like an Aldi's) which was SUPER AWESOME. This was our favorite part!

United KingdomI had to get in touch to receive the refund of the deposit which was not returned as promised and took 13 days to credit my account. This imo should be a holding deposit and not actually debited from your account as per all the other places we stayed in our US trip The pull out sofa bed was extremely uncomfortable and I ended up just sleeping on the sofa.
David was excellent, busy but always replied via what's app which suited me

United KingdomThe location given was no. 618 S Bixel Street but to meet Henry at no.629. We could not find either 618 or 629. We did find 625, phoned the number given and David (not Henry) came to meet us. He took us to the apartment which was on a different street round the corner! This was confusing particularly as I had booked a return ride from the location given. No information in the apartment for appliances, details of the area, tours etc. The receptionist at the front desk knew nothing about the apartment or David. There was no lighting in the lounge area and only one small lamp in the bedroom. A broken window was covered by a picture. The bedroom blind was too thin, let in all the light. Nowhere to store luggage on check out. I asked for a later check out but got no reply.
Lovely modern, clean apartment, well equipped on the whole. Quite good location. Not too close to downtown area but within walking distance. Big washing machine and tumble dryer.

Australiait was a great stay. we don't have much negative to stay - it's set back over the freeway, so it's important to head down the right streets.
For a family with younger children, the facilities were perfect. Plenty of space and kitchen facilities, along with a laundry. It's also well placed centrally in LA. Starbucks and supermarket are both downstairs. And we got great assistance from David, who met us with the keys.

AustraliaPerhaps it’s just room 315, the shower pressure was too low and hence water flow was very weak, almost like a drip feed to have a warm shower and requires us to stand real close to the wall. This would be of a greater concern if guests are staying in winter season. The pull out sofa bed was broken and hence could not be used as a spare bed. The flat TV has a blue tint and cannot be adjusted and hard to watch.

United KingdomThere were some cooking utensils (pots and pans) but no baking tray, we didn’t think to look before buying groceries so this left us stuck. Lots of the lights don’t work, such as in the bedroom only the lamp works. I understand why there is another double bed in the lounge but a sofa bed would look better. I agree with other comments about a horrible smell in the corridors of the building, this is not the fault of the host and there is no bad smell in the apartment at all.
Location is good, metro, restaurants and shops all just a short walk away. We thought the gym was great and outdoor areas (including pool). Bed was very comfortable and there is lots of large storage spaces which was handy for us as we had lots of suitcases. Host was very helpful and responsive.

The location was excellent and having the Grocery Outlet connected to it made it super convenient. The rooftop was awesome! We loved going up there to relax and see the lights of the city. Everything was super clean. David was super communicative with us before and during our stay, which made things very easy.

My sister and I loved everything at Modern Apartment. The heated pool was very nice and the pool house was very entertaining. All the different rooftop sitting areas were well lit and comfortable with the city back drop. The fire pit is glorious 😍 and you can really feel the heat. Where it's located gives a Miami feel to it.
