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...).

The location was perfect for the trip itinerary. Nearby beach, good food, and nightlife opportunities. Had trouble unlocking door, the staff was very helpful with assistance. Scenic outdoor patio area with plenty of seating. Hot showers and cold AC. Two major thumbs up.

Antigua & BarbudaWhen we first arrived the room had an odour. Not sure what it was but it lingered for a bit, so we had to open up the doors. Other than that, everything was good. Maybe have extra towels in a closet.
The room looked exactly as pictured and I really loved the aesthetic and decor. It was enough space for two and we had a comfortable stay. Bonus points for location right in Simpson Bay, easy to walk to places.

United KingdomUnfortunately when we arrived the towels and bedding appeared unclean/ had long hairs on them. However the staff were great and fixed this for us straight away.
The location was amazing right in the middle of Simpson bay. The view is incredible. So many places to eat within walking distance. A beach within walking distance. Staff were lovely and the apartment was really spacious for a couple.

United StatesOur stay at The Hills Residence was exceptional. The location was unbeatable—just a short walk from key attractions, restaurants, and shops, yet tucked away enough to offer peace and privacy. The room exceeded our expectations in every way. It felt brand new—spotlessly clean, beautifully designed, and incredibly comfortable. It genuinely seemed as if we were the first guests to stay there. The property offered excellent value for the quality provided. Everything was sleek, modern, and thoughtfully curated. The amenities and facilities were first-rate, reflecting a clear emphasis on guest comfort and convenience. One highlight for us was the amazing rooftop pool experience with incredible views of Simpson Bay's liveliness. Overall, The Hills Residence combines location, luxury, and value seamlessly. We would gladly return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Saint Martin.

United StatesNeeded a bath mat and toilet paper holders. No soap in the half bathroom. No one changed the garbage daily as promised. We didn't know what to do with the trash.
Location was good. Close to lots of good restaurants on the strip. Comfortable well appointed apartment. Parking was great. Apartment was clean and even had beach towels which was a plus, most places dont offer that. very close to good beach clubs and not a far drive from the french side.

GermanyOn paper there are lot of restaurants nearby, unfortunately there are literally no walking paths and you end up walking on the side of a super busy road or taking the car everywhere. There was some damage in the bathroom (cracked toilet seat and shower drain). No complimentary cleaning service, towels are changed free of charge only once per week.
Comfortable apartment, equipped with everything you might need. Parking spots in the basement are super convenient and in the shade, which is priceless.

The location was great with amazing views and close by restaurants and bars. Not far away from the beach either. The apartment was clean and modern. Despite the fact that we arrived 1 day later because of a connecting flight that was missed, we did not have to pay for that night. Thank you again!
