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...).

United StatesFacilities need a little updating but are functional and convenient. Not much else I didn't like.
Location! Comfy pods. Organized facility. Each person has their own space for things in fridge and storage which is great. Felt welcome and comfortable! The sunset from the rooftop is amazing! Guests and staff are quiet and I loved the vibe of the music during the day. Definitely felt safe. Will stay again. :)

KenyaI loved the serene environment and thoughtful amenities. The free bikes were a fantastic touch, making it easy to explore the area. The working space with monitors was perfect for staying productive, and the shared kitchen was clean and well-equipped for meal prep. There was also a screen available for watching movies or shows, which was a nice bonus for downtime. The addition of fun items like balls for outdoor games added a playful element to the stay. I also appreciated the up-to-date and modern approach to operating the doors and locks, which added convenience and security. Overall, the combination of comfort, convenience, and unique offerings made this a truly memorable experience!

United StatesAmazing, comfortable and cozy stay in Venice. Perfect place to chill, meditate and get some work done. The location is right on the beach which provides amazing views. The pods are super comfortable and very inclusive for privacy. The rooftop view for Sunsets are a must! I look forward to returning in the near future.

United KingdomThis place was one of the coolest places I've stayed. The views are amazing, and I met some really cool people here. The place is so chilled, and I highly recommend laying down on the cushions under the staircase and getting lost in the moment, and you will truly understand the vibe of this place.

United KingdomThis is an excellent location and has a relaxed atmosphere. If you are a light sleeper then you might want an eye mask and earbuds. Although it's pretty quiet during quiet hours which is 9pm and 9am. The beds, bed linen are really nice. You can't beat the view and atmosphere of this place. I stayed in 2 other hotels and Stay Venice has the best atmosphere, esp if traveling solo and wanting to connect with others.

If there is one place that I would recommend staying at in Venice, it's Stay Open. Dave is an absolute legend and runs an incredible hostel. It's described as a hostel, but it genuinely feels like a hotel. The space is magnificent and is fitted with everything you could possibly need. Loads of room to chill and be by yourself (if needed). There's never more than 10 or 11 other people staying, so it never feels crowded. I met some awesome people there. The location itself is unbeatable as well, because it is right on the Venice Boardwalk. The pods are super comfortable and fitted with power supply, dimmable lights and shelves. My 6'4" frame didn't quite fit lengthwise, but that wasn't all that of an issue. They're super comfy. If you come by car, there is paid (underground & overnight) parking available, pretty much next door, but it costs a fair penny. That said, finding overnight and secure parking in Venice is hard and often costly anyway. Want to stay in Venice? Then stay open and come here, you won't be disappointed.

GermanyFor me personally it was too quiet. I was there for a total of four days and hardly dared to make any noise because I was always afraid of disturbing the peace. But this is also due to the house being very sensitive to noise. I was very considerate and so was everyone else. So for guests who want to work and like to go to bed early, it was perfect anyway. I think I would still recommend the place as it is really nice all in all.
The house is really nice and stylishly furnished. You really have everything you need there and the location is of course great. It's incredibly quiet and you can work well if you want to. The staff was really nice and always there if you needed them.

Stay Open is such a unique concept and there needs to be more like it! They’ve curated the marketing to attract digital nomads and the co working and living community which leads to an exceptional experience right in the heart of Venice with respectful guests and a zen vibe. Dave who manages the property is top class and always on hand for any questions or recommendations. I can’t recommend this place enough! Will be back 100% A*

SloveniaThe place is beautifully designed and cleaned daily, so everything is really clean, the common areas are just beautiful. There are even working stations, the wifi is fast and the kitchen is fully equipped. The view from the rooftop is 10/10, and the people staying there are nice and clean. But more than everything else, STAFF are what makes this place truly amazing. I stayed 2 times, and both times, they went out of their way to help me out. Also, you can rent a bicycle or longboard, which is useful, and the location is 10/10. You won't be disappointed!
