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 KingdomThere was quite a bit of damage throughout which made it look a bit rough despite being clean such as ripped Lino in the living room damage to walls etc. The TV in the bedroom was not smart so only had access to terrestrial TV channels in there. Also it says free parking but this is on the road outside and not guaranteed if already taken by other people. If a property is advertising free parking I would expect there to be an allocated space.
It was in a good central location walkable to a few shops, restaurants and into town and a short drive from the beach. It was clean with some good facilities such as smart TV in the living room, washing machine etc

United KingdomThere were a few stains on the carpets and sofa. A cover on the sofa would have been nice. There was no surface spray/wipes in the cupboards to disinfect. I had to go and buy some.
It was perfect for what I came for. A quiet space with all the facilities I needed for a comfortable stay. I did enjoy the stay

United KingdomNo complaints. Everything was as expected.
I spent 3 days in Barry with my partner. Our first time and the location was perfect. We were able to travel by foot to get around in Barry including going to Barry Island beach and the Barry Waterfront. There's also lots of food takeaways nearby, an Asda and a cool pop up market within 10 minutes walk. It was really well located yet still quiet and peaceful. Facilities were also really well stocked and we had everything we needed including netflix on the TV. The hosts responded to me very quickly, even out of hours when I needed assistance with parking and sorted my issue in record time. Super happy and would definitely book again next time we visit Barry.

United KingdomThere’s stairs that leads to the bedroom upstairs from the seating room. In my opinion, this is very unsafe for kids that are able to climb over things. It is very dangerous for kids to stay upstairs but if they will remain in the seating room and sleep there then it’s fine. The room we stayed (room3) wifi password was wrong but I figured it out because the router was behind the TV and it had the password on it. There is a compulsory £19.99 when you would need to pay when you try to check in online which I do not like at all. Also, the tap in the toilet sink was leaking from the pipe underneath but this can be unnoticed as the leakage is not obvious at all.
It was suitable for 3 adults even 4adults as the sofa chair is enough for 2 people and there is a double beds upstairs which was good too. The facility was neat and there was pot, plates and other kitchen accessories that would be needed for the short stay. Also, there is morrisons not too far away from the building. There’s also towels and cover cloth for use. The building is very neat and comfortable.

PolandIt was very hot when we stayed, which is not a fault of the hosts, but the flat was very difficult to air out and cool down. Even during a cold night it was very hot. We were supplied with a floor fan but there wasnt any space in the bedroom to put it, making one of us not able to cool down. The shower was not powerful at all and was going hot n cold before we figured out how to use it The shared corridor between apartments smelled of cigarettes - I guess guests leaved the entrance door slightly open. There was also plenty of cigarette butts in front of entrance - could have installed a proper ashtray.
The property was nicely furnished and was in a great location. The free parking was a plus and the staff are just based on the ground floor, and were helpful with getting extra milk and coffee

United KingdomThe apartment wasn't the one in the picture...furniture was different and the apartment seemed smaller...for example: The sofa in the picture was a corner shaped sofa bed, but the one in our apartment wasn't there were some dirty marks on the bathroom wall. The shower kept going intermittently freezing cold and boiling hot, on the last morning of our stay. There was a fold away dining table and no chairs. There wasn't much room around the bed, or storage, so we kept our luggage in the kitchen/living room.
The location was great, with a variety of lovely shops, convenience store, pub and restaurants really close by...The beach was only a 25 minute walk too. The bed was comfortable with and the apartment was well equiped. The entrance code locks for the front door and flat door was a great idea...We enjoyed not having to worry about a key.

United KingdomThe sofa bed downstairs was very basic and not very comfortable. Maybe a mattress topper would be a great idea stored behind the sofa when not needed This would make such a difference to the comfort of that sofabed
Very cosy little flat. Great facilities. Hosts were very accommodating and when the shower went wrong they were there to help within 5 mins. Very helpful. It's was well stocked with things in the kitchen so you easily make meals. It had a fridge freezer so that was very helpful too. It was clean and tidy. It also had a big tv with Netflix etc.

United KingdomThe apartment had a real bad small to it like musty smell, Also the sofa bed had white stains on it and the double I'd say was a small double and the wardrobe was falling apart at the bottom. I didn't like how the actual company message me to be change 31.50 for my dog (2nights) and a deposit of 195 pound or 20 pounds 1 off payment for damages which you don't get back. This was not in the description. So ended up paying a extra 50 pounds.
Apartments was lovely in a great location and the price was reasonable.

United KingdomA bit tired looking - stains on the cushions and the carpet dirty. Smell in the fridge. Loud music from next door flat made the living room inaccessible during the evenings. Light from across the road (block of flats) was on all night and kept us awake as the blinds were not adequate to keep out the light - not really the fault of the host, but a point to improve on. May have been bitten when we were there (flea bite?).
Location and parking were great. WIFI was excellent. Very clean sheets and towels. Comfortable bed. Washing machine was useful. Very good app process for checking in and out which made things very easy.
