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...).

This was a great place to stay! Super close to the subway to get in and out of the city, but far enough out that you don’t feel like you are in the middle of all the craziness! Phil and Faye were amazing! Very hospitable and made sure our stay was as good as if we were at our own home!

IrelandAlthough a suburban road, it could get a bit busy outside in patches, so a bit noisy. But was fine after a full day if exploring the city we were so tired.
Hosts were extremely welcoming and helpful. Room was a great size and comfortable. Immediate location is great for amenities and transport.

United StatesWe liked everything and were very happy with our stay. Other travelers who stayed at the house and who had breakfast with us were all very friendly and we had a great conversation over breakfast. The house is well located in terms of subway stops, just a few blocks away by foot, and Prospect Park is right there, your back yard, so awesome.
Phil is a wonderful host, very friendly, informative and helpful. The house and the rooms are immaculate, beds super comfortable. The place and the neighborhood are quiet, very quiet, and the street is absolutely beautiful. We visited our daughter about 10 blocks away and were out late every night, walking back to Phil's place between 11:00 and midnight each night alone by ourselves. It was 100% user friendly on the street, no safety issues at all. It is an old residential area, established, well kept and impressive.

United StatesI did not like that we had twin beds. I did not see where that option was to select. Be sure to ask as before you book. Would like to have a map of the city to look at to see where subway stops were located and the major sites.
Location was very close to Prospect Park and walkable to the Botanical Gardens and Brooklyn Museum. The owner was charming and fun to talk with.
