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...).

Ireland16:00 is a late check-in. We texted the owners to ask if we could possibly check-in an hour or two earlier, but they never responded. They could have at least given a response, even if just to deny our request.
Clean apartment, great location, nice to have the kitchen and washing machine.

GreeceThe only negative thing is that the bedroom smelled a little bad, and it was hard that we couldn't change the temperature (it was a bit cold for us)
The location is great, the room I'd spacious and nicely decorated. It has everything you need, washing machine, big fridge, kitchenette etc

IndiaIt is a nice and cozy apartment, centrally located and has access to all modes of public transport. Just a 10 min walk from the Helsinki central railway station and 2 mins from the rock church. The apartment has all the amenities and the check in instructions are super easy. Taavi also helped us with an early check in free of cost. Overall I had a great experience.

United KingdomThe bathroom was not very spacious making it a but difficult to move around. Windows are facing the car park of the residents nearby, so not much privacy. Bed is a bit small for 2 people and the mattress is not firm, so a bit uncomfortable for my preference.
Very cozy and clean studio apartment that is a few meters away from the central station. There is an underground pedestrian pathway located at the back of the central station that can lead to the street where the apartment is situated. Host was very welcoming and helpful. Very secured apartment with nearby restaurants and shops. If you are a nature lover and likes to go for walks, the apartment is about 20 minutes away from Hietaranta beach.

AustraliaApartment was small with a tiny shower and only one armchair, but this didn't bother us overmuch as its small size was to be expected so close to the city centre.
Cozy apartment, clean and well-appointed in a fantastic location close to all amenities. Our host Taavi gave us great ideas for nearby Helsinki attractions: the new library Oodi was a standout. He also kindly looked after one of our suitcases when we left for a 3 day trip to Kuopio (great little city) in the middle of our Helsinki visit. Kiidos paljan! Mike and Siddhi NSW Australia

United KingdomOverall, I would highly recommend this apartment, and it exceeded my expectations! The only minor downside was that the bathroom sink was small.
The apartment is spacious, comfortable, quiet, and it is located within walking distance of the main bus and train stations. I would highly recommend it as a place to stay for both solo travellers or for couples visiting Helsinki for a few days, and I would love to stay there again! The owner was also always quick to reply to my messages and she was very helpful.

GreeceJust one small thing: I don't know if shampoo and these kind of products are included in the price but all of them were almost empty. If they are not included, they shouldn't be there at all.
Nice location, in walking distance to center and tram stop. Clean, cozy and comfortable. Well equipped for people that stay longer and need to cook and clean clothes. Very nice that the curtains are thick and we could sleep after sunrise.

CroatiaThere was nothing NOT to like in FREDA studio.
FREDA apartment was cozy, warm, clean and well equipped. Above all, it is 15 minutes walking distance of Central train station. Most of the Helsinki attractions are also within walking distance. Same goes for grocery shops, shopping mall (Kamppi), souvenir shops, the beach, restaurants, etc. We highly recommend Natural history museum of Finland that is just around the corner. Temppeliaukion Church is at the end of the street. Taavi is wonderful host, and he provided all the necessary info. For such a short stay we couldn't have picked better apartment.
