Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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...).

Location is convenient to travel around. Especially near our son Naval school.

It was quiet, cozy and close to the beach.

United States of AmericaOnly one small snag. The storm door was damaged (?) and would not close. The first night had a rain and wind storm and the door banged all night. I came up with a way to "tie" the door so it wouldn't flap but that was temporary of course. Really a small inconvenience and did not alter the entire experience.
No keys. It was a coded lock. Arrival was a little confusing but it was after dark. I called the owner and he talked me through parking and entry. He was very kind and accommodating on every level. The bed was comfy the bathroom new with a big tiled shower. Microwave and fridge very clean as was the entire space. Let me say Thank You to the owner for his help and patience.

United States of AmericaI would recommend to Anthony to build a path from the entrance gate to the patio as when it rained it was a pain with it being muddy. I also would recommend taking a look at the front storm door on the suite as it does not close and when it rained the door swung open and could cause issues in a heavy storm. There also was some miscommunication between Anthony and the cleaning team that delayed our check in by an hour, though I did not like waiting because it was handled swiftly and correctly, I believe it should not be held against them besides me acknowledging the problem on here. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay and look forward to knowing we have a potential place in the future.
The location of this property is nice and right across the street from beach access to Ocean View Beach. The suite is in the backyard of the property that has 2 other rentals attached in the front. The bathroom is great and the room itself is a decently large room. There is dedicated parking for this suite as well. I would recommend this place in the future and will probably be back in the future.

United States of AmericaI wish the host included a set of two plates, drinking glasses, utensils and cups (not plastic cups) in addition to the fridge and microwave. The plates and drinking glasses could be made of unbreakable plastic. A roll of paper towels would be a nice addition. The lock mechanism of the storm door was not working, so the door flapped in the wind. I had to be creative to handle that problem the last night.
The studio was clean, the location was great, close to the airport, less than half a mile walking distance from the beach, with a quiet environment. I slept well, there were no noises from the neighbors and the bed was comfortable. Nice bathroom too. I didn’t see anyone during my visit. TV worked great. I easily connected to my Netflix account via the Roku system. Don’t forget to sign out before you leave! I visited the Botanical Gardens during my stay. I love botanical gardens! And it was free too (every Thursday during Black History month).

United States of Americathe water pressure in the shower is very low, low to the point that most of the options on the multi-jet shower do not operate at any capacity that will rinse you. A simple swith to a less GPM and more airated head would fix this and the digital lock on the door was quite finicky often taking several attempts to get the door unlocked as it kept saying battery was low and lock would not engage properly. I thought at one point we would be locked out, but my wifes persistance got it to work. Other than these two small things it was great, I would Def. reccomend this place to anyone. I would also Def. stay here again, only I would bring some double AA batteries and my shower head with me nexttime, LOL Overall, Best place I have stayed in a while
the location was great, it's very quiet, no booming music from cars going by like you have at hotels, no road noise that you commonly have at hotels, no loud neighbors, no dogs barking all night, no doors slamming all night like you always have at every hotel, no weird druggy people walking around like at hotels. Beach is 2 1/2 blocks away even though we didn't use it due to low outside temps. if you want a quiet place to sleep, use wifi, and relax, this is the spot at or below what you will pay at hotels for far less peace, quiet, and privacy Has apartment size fridge/freezer, microwave, tv with HDMI outputs "bring your own cable" and a walk in shower
