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...).

CanadaOh my!!!! I could not get in for almost 24hrs. They promised to follow up but did not. Once finally in I noticed the TV didn't work. I was promised it would be fixed. The "handy person" was not able to fix it which no one told me and then locked me out of my apartment to where the master key at 1am didn't work. I was promised someone would fix the TV, which was never done. And repeatedly I asked at the hotel and when speaking to staff to have the manager call me and that never happened. It really is too bad because so much was good.
The beds were so comfy and is a good location.

CanadaOne of our party was 77 years old, very tall and has had knee surgery. Two late 60's and a late 40 year old. We all found the three fights of stairs to get to our apartment many times a day very challenging. The bathroom with the slanted roof line in the shower was not well received by our tall man. Our toilet paper, very thin, was never replenished. We had the roll that was there when we got there and one extra. We were there for 9 days! Luckily our kids across town had an abundance, so we got some of theirs. No hand soap or staples were provided. The salt shaker had been emptied and pepper were the old things supplied. Our cable box and batteries in the remote had disappeared so they brought us a new box the next day. Our coffee maker didn't work but they brought us a brand new one. We had to buy our own laundry detergent, dryer sheets, coffee and fixings. The wind whipped through the windows and one screen had a 5" hole in it. It got quite cool while we were there and the heat only marginally heated the apartment. Don't let the picture on the website fool you. We were sent to the building down the road at a busy intersection. It was a gorgeous old house in its day but has not been kept up, at least in our apartment.
Breakfast was not included with our apartment. It was relatively close to downtown but we did have to drive and parking downtown is a nightmare. The apartment was spacious and the laundry facilities were great. The three bedrooms were a good size with lots of living area.

CanadaShower was a little awkward to use but we managed. Biggest issue would be no way to cool the room down as we had no a/c and I don't believe the windows can be opened without letting bugs in.

CanadaThe most disturbing was there is a room that leads to the “furnace, hot water and other items” which wasn’t and unable to lock. That room leads outside and it, too, wasn’t locked. So essentially, someone could enter our suite through both doors.

CanadaToo much furniture in the small space and the furniture was old and the couch looked like a cat has scratched it to bits. There was food on the kitchen floor and in the one bedroom. Hair in the sink and shower.
The location was central to everything. There was everything you needed in the kitchen. Loved having the dishwasher. I liked the original parts of the building it added charm. Beautiful island in the kitchen.

CanadaCommunication could be better.. street number and units could be better marked. I had a couple try to get in the unit at 2 am. Turns out the lack of signs had them confused.. Little coffee in the room would have been nice. The door code should have been emailed to us, not left in the mailbox. Left us feeling less than secure.

QatarWhen we arrived we were assigned to an apartment at a nearby location, different than the pictures we viewed when booking Midstream Manor. It was in poor condition and not suitable for a family of 4 for a month. The next morning the staff helped us get upgraded to a much better apartment at Monastery Hotel without an extra charge and also provided laundry service because the new place didn’t have access to a washer/dryer.
Monastery Hotel. Great location close to downtown.

CanadaIt would've been nice if it had coffee and filters to use with the coffee maker. There was some noise in the hallway and outside early in the morning and late at night, so if someone was a light sleeper that would be problematic. The window also led right onto the parking lot and since it is a basement apartment I wasn't comfortable leaving the blinds open because people would see directly into the unit. The location was challenging because I didn't have a car so it wasn't the easiest to get downtown.
The unit was nice, it had everything that I needed. The staff was friendly and helpful, but I didn't need to interact with them much at all! Check in and out were seamless and the instructions for how to access the unit were detailed and very helpful. The area was *beautiful* with lots of big trees and beautiful houses.
