Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

United States of AmericaHonestly can't think of anything negative.
Our charming and cozy room (one of two in the B&B), the setting, our hosts (filled with good suggestions about our stay in Sefad), the breakfast … everything. The courtyard is also beautiful; we ate our breakfast outdoors the second day. (Free parking, at a premium in some parts of Sefad, is available very close by). … This was our third stay over several years; we can't wait to return again.

United States of AmericaThe BnB is excellently located within close walking distance of the Old City and the main shopping area. Joy and Evan Yisrael serve an absolutely fantastic (and voluminous!) breakfast and were a great resource for local sights and information. The studio is in a building hundreds of years old and has a great historical feel.

IsraelEverything was wonderful at the Artist Quarter Guesthouse. The one attribute that stands out is attention to detail. Everything one needs is supplied in the room. It is located in a charming and lovely authentic 18th century courtyard that has been renovated beautifully and in wonderful taste.

AustraliaBed was a bit uncomfortable but I'm being pretty picky.
Exceptional hospitality from Joy and Evan. A cute, picturesque little corner of Safed with the guesthouse offering a quiet escape in beautiful surroundings. Joy and Evan really have the art of quality hospitality down pat, ready to chat, amazing breakfast (actually too much e.g. one of our nights was Friday night when no eateries/restaurants are open and Joy provides a pre-prepared breakfast on Friday for Saturday. There was so much for breakfast we ate our Friday night dinner from the breakfast and still had ample for the following morning). Rooms are air conditioned, have tea and coffee, fridge, hair dryer. If I could give more stars I would.

United States of AmericaSomething other than stones for a headboard would have been nice. It was a longish walk, with our luggage, from where we had to park our car (but both Evan and Joy helped!).
Breakfast was served by the host at a table just outside our comfortable room, and it was great! Fresh-baked bread, eggs, etc. Strong Turkish coffee (our preference) was freshly brewed.

United States of AmericaThe Artist Quarter is a gorgeous guesthouse, with the magnificent Tzefat charm. The location is so well placed, quiet and serene yet so close to all synagogues and the center of town. We visited with children. Would definitely go back!! The food is delicious and served so Graciously. The rooftop view is magnificent. A real highlight of our trip!

GermanyThere is absolutely nothing to dislike at this property
I'm so happy to find the very closest to perfect property to stay, now and also for future visits to Tzfat! Joy and Evan were among the most nicest hosts I've ever met. And I travel a lot! Both are very friendly, helpful and welcoming in every manner. The guesthouse is at prime location almost on top of the Tzfat hill, great views from the rooftop terrace. Easy and free public parking a few meters away. Close to everything needed like groceries, restaurants etc. Guests would receive upfront a comprehensive and helpful description how to get to the guesthouse. Immediately fell in love with the Appartment/Suite. Not only it is immaculately clean and well appointed with everything that makes life easy. It was really designed (and artsy too) to create a cosy and real home away from home. Would love to come back in a second! BTW: The pictures at booking.com are real and would mirror the real impressions of the property at it's best. In reality it looks even more better. The breakfast is fantastic, and Joys Omelettes (with cheese !!) next level, just from another universe. And so are the bread rolls from my new fav bakery ;-) While Evan would take his time and sit with you after your delicious breakfast and mark sights worth visiting according to your plans and interests on a personal map for you. Thank you, Joy and Evan for having me, and for being the best hosts in the entire world ! ;-) Every praising review to your guesthose is more than true.
