Booking com Reviews

Last year we had a trip planned in March, flying out 3 days after the pandemic started. All of our travel plans got canceled so naturally we had to cancel the hotel room we booked through your app. We were told we could not cancel and get a refund, but instead could inform them of when we planned t... Show more o travel again so we can change the date/get a credit. Now that Iceland has opened back up (this is where we had our hotel at), we rebooked our trip and called Booking to get the credit for the room. We were told today that because we did not call them to change the dates prior to our original hotel booking (March 15, 2020), that our credit was no longer active and there is nothing they can do. They told us to call the hotel but when we did, they said Booking never gave them our money and that we have to resolve it with Booking. Basically you all expected us to magically know when we would travel again 3 days after the pandemic started so now we are out 3 days worth of a hotel. I’m extremely unhappy and cannot express to you enough that I will not be using Booking in the future!!! You have stolen our money and that’s all there is to it.

The rooms were dirty. Yes the floors were sticky in the hallway. The room was without light bulbs. One chair was so dirty. The housekeeping staff turned it over on the other side. However that side was dirty as . Not one time did the manager come to talk with me. We looked at 4 rooms and still had ... Show more to stay in the first dirty room. The pool was cold. The housekeeping didn’t give us fresh sheets. They just made the bed. They didn’t bring fresh towels. We had to ask for them. Then when we asked they didn’t bring them and we had to call again. The walks in the room was peeling. The bathroom walls were cracked. One of the rooms I looked at the door to the room looked like it had been broken into. When the person came up to look at it they didn’t even say anything other then that’s not a hole. Then on the 2nd night there was a room with 20 kids in it. They kept running up and down the hallways being loud. Then they took over the pool. The breakfast was not fresh. I ended up drinking spoiled milk. I complained and all i was offered was $44 for my trouble. That’s not even enough. This hotel is not worth the money.

Run fast the other way!!! This hotel needs to close down and have a total rehab. I don’t mind older properties if they are kept up. This hotel has lots of deferred maintenance. We asked for a quite room. We were given a king room that faces Canal Street. First mistake! The road noise, vehicles honk... Show more ing, people screaming, sirens all day and night, and some dude on a megaphone for hours at a time preaching. This is definitely not a relaxing hotel. Once you wade past all the homeless people you finally get to the front doors. There was a security guard on call at night but he isn’t checking anyones id or proof you are staying here. Once we get to our room it was awful. The drapes are stained with brown spots all over them. The carpet is stained. There are ants crawling on the bed. The bed frame has iron pieces hanging out and my wife cut her shin. The bed cover is ripped to shreds. No blankets. The front desk does not answer the phone. The commode was broke. Mold in the shower. Air conditioning return vent is filthy. The positive are location within city and air conditioner works great. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS RUN DOWN HOTEL. For $900 for 3 nights, we were definitely ripped off.

I’ve used boooking several times in the past without problems, until recently. It was my birthday and wanted to celebrate with my girlfriend. I went on the Booking app to find a Jacuzzi Suite and located one in their site at a Holiday in express and Suites. Drove over a hundred miles to this hotel ... Show more that I reserved And got to hotel. Checked in and went up to room only to find their was no jacuzzi in room. Called front desk and was told that they didn’t have any rooms with jacuzzis, and that I would need to talk to manager in the morning. Talked to manager at checkout and was told that They are not going to refund me at all because it’s not their fault, it’s Bookings fault and I had to call them. Called booking and they said it’s not their fault either. So I guess it’s my fault that I was lied to and lured into a hotel for something I was promised and paid for but didn’t receive.
Beware of Booking. Com as they will not stand behind anything, and don’t care a lot guest relations. Again I used them to book many times in the past and will not again and suggest for your sake you do not either.

My parents made a reservation at a hotel in Winchester, England, then cancelled on time to not get charged, per the terms of the reservation. They received an email confirming it was cancelled and that no charge will be made. To their surprise, one week after the cancellation they got charged the f... Show more ull amount of €240 a night. Then the nightmare began. Calling booking customer was a horrendous experience. Every person picking up the call would tell us a different story. They would say they did not charged it, or that it corresponded to another reservation (which it didn’t), or they would acknowledge it was a mistake and that they had to wait. We also called the hotel which confirmed that on their end they never charged us and therefore it had been Booking making the charge. After one month of about 17 calls with Booking customer service and sending bank documents to proof that the reservation had been charged to their bank account, finally my parents bank was able to present a complaint to Visa, providing all the documents, and they received the refund that Booking would deny them over and over again. This was an absolute fraud on the part of Booking and my family members and myself will never use Bookingcom again, period. There are lot of people in travel forums sharing similar experiences. Bye bye Booking.

Absolutely the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had and I’m 62 and travel frequently. I was there 5 days... the police were there multiple times, vagrants were always around begging money, the elevator was broke down for 2 days, the halls reeked of pot, the room was filthy, we were moved 3 times be... Show more cause the toilet was not working, the carpet was filthy, there was black mold on the ceiling, the air conditioner rattled , the shower barely worked. I paid for my stay in advance so I was stuck. My daughter and her family stayed 2 days and left and found another hotel. Today when thankfully I checked out, the elevator was finally working, there were 6 guests with luggage on the elevator when the rear door opened and a housekeeper with a cart and vacuum forced her way on the elevator pinning my 11 year old grandson against the wall. We all tried to tell her it was too crowded, she pretended she didn’t understand English... I later heard her speaking fluent English. Ironically, I had to wait to get my cash deposit back while someone inspected the room. What a joke. The only reason I gave that dump 1 star was because it had a bed ( with stained linens ) and a roof.

We won’t ever stay here again. First off, I reserved a King Suite. They gave me a double Queen. I called the front desk and the little gal lied to me about the computers going down , so she couldn’t check. She then said well, you paid so your problem. Ok, so I check the room. We have a broken main ... Show more outlet ( exposed wires too) and the three outlets on the wall were out. Major OSHA issue. I go in person to the front desk to change rooms , since now they put a room full of partying neighbors next to us.
Now, I’m getting the room we originally reserved ( really).Our 2nd morning, No water ( the water pump is broken). Now we have a toilet that filled with dirt and sediments after it was fixed. We leave and return to no maid service was done to clean it, no fresh towels, no room coffee given. Simple things I paid for. Had to go find a maid cart and replace everything myself, since that what the young man at the front desk said to do ( another really). I also was also shocked to come upon a manager being very rude with her front desk person while the lobby was filled with patrons waiting for their bagged breakfast like she couldn’t put the customers first. In all my years of hotel stays, this by far was the worst experience ever. I’m getting up in my years and had a tough time changing the rooms by myself, hunting down towels and coffee , going to the front desk for way too many things. Oh, yeah they deactivated my room key. Had to fix that too😢

Not what I expected for the price we paid. The hotel is in a great location but could use some upgrades and better housekeeping skills. The room was spacious but not as clean as it should be. The bathroom curtain was white with some gray stains which showed it had not been properly watched in a lon... Show more g time. The bathroom sink had some yellow stains in the corner and the toilet paper holder was falling off the wall. This one had a whole right next to it that was never patched up and the footboard needed some real good cleaning as they were gray instead of white. I spoke with the front desk about it and they sent the housekeeper to clean the room but everything I mentioned was still the same when we got back to the room. You could tell they switched the bedroom sheets, replaced the towels and vacuumed the floors but nothing else was done. This is the first time I experience anything like this in a hotel and it was a shamed. The food is also over priced.
I was only there for two nights and didn’t want to make a big deal about the cleanliness of the room but unfortunately, I would not be staying here again.

This accommodation was more like a bed and breakfast (except without the breakfast) Beds were not comfortable. One, the hide-a-bed was a thin mattress and my son woke up with neck and shoulder pain. Queen bed was a mattress with memory foam on top. Wi-Fi worked only sometimes. Hot and stuffy in roo... Show more m but Xavier brought a fan which was helpful. Only one faucet worked on sink with lukewarm water and shower was not so great, but had nice hot water. Also, no fridge, microwave or anything. Parking was about 1/4 mile away and an extra $10-$15 a night. Xavier was very trustworthy and helpful and gave us good suggestions where to eat, etc.. (The reason for the 3stars otherwise I would give it Just 2 stars for comfort). He was also a good communicator and responded to texts and requests promptly. This place was close to the center and seemed to be safe enough with double locked doors. All in all I felt like we paid a lot for what we got compared to other places we stayed in MX though. Be prepared to pay for your stay in cash (pesos) too.

We do not live in a state that is running in fear from Covid. We have not had to deal with masks for over a year and a half. So we were a little taken back when we got to the hotel and had to mask up. No big deal, I carry my Shaun the sheep mask with me. We are also greatly disappointed that nowher... Show more e on Bookingcom does it disclose the yuge number of amenities that were not going to be available. That’s a yuge selling point for some people. Not whether or not I am forced to wear a mask, could care less. However nowhere did they check our temperatures, ask us any questions in regards to our health. They did not make us wash our hands or use sanitizer, but we had to have the mask on! Let’s get back to the truth in advertising part for things that you pay for. Greatly disappointed about the pool being closed. Have you done any research in the area of chlorine and Covid? Because your paper masks are far less effective then hand washing. The three stars is for the staff they were great. The two missing stars belong to ownership.

It was not near or convenient to anything. When you look at the map you think “oh its in Jimbaran so it near...” as there are many great things worth seeing & experiencing here in Jimbaran or Uluwatu area but its quite far from anything due to the windy roads. You have to hire a car —no taxis a... Show more vailable from here —and you are at the mercy of whatever they want to charge you, even to go 5 minutes down the road to the closest restaurant. I’d recommend stYing here for a night and enjoying a full day relaxing by the pool and taking in the views. The dinner at the restaurant is quite good and reasonably priced for the portions and quality. Then, after enjoying your time here, find another location for site-seeing the rest of Bali as this is not a convenient base for going on excursions, shopping, dining, etc. its gorgeous and inexpensive for what they offer—this makes it a great value, but its too far away to enjoy anything beyond this property itself.

From the beginning at checkout, to questions, to the restaurant staff... everyone was helpful, cheerful and happy! The rooms are a bit small, but we only rested and got ready in them so no worries. The beds and pillows are so comfortable and rooms were clean. The restaurant is currently only servi... Show more ng breakfast, the staff was attentive and pleasant. Could use a lot of upgrades, but was roomy and food was decent. (Not free). The Splashatorium was a good way for the kiddos to wind down. Not really big or much to do. It was just the one slide, pool, and hot tub.... like I said good way to wind down and chill. Make reservations for the splashatorium!!! We made reservations a week in advance do to my research and looking at reviews, otherwise I would not have known. We had no where to sit or put or things, I would recommend that the resort supply enough sitting for the amount of people reserved. All and all a pleasant stay.

Overall Bookingcom is pretty good, there are just a couple of things I wish would be changed. First, a lot of accommodations (especially in the US) charge a security deposit. It’s almost never easy to find out how much it is and it can even cause a cancelation if it goes over your card limit. I re... Show more ally feel security deposits are a form of age discrimination. What I would like is a way for Bookingcom to filter OUT properties that charge a security deposit. This would show age discriminating businesses that we won’t tolerate it. Secondly, again in the US, it doesn’t show the taxes until you’re on the last page to book. It makes properties seem cheaper than they really are. Booking even in expensive countries like the UK can still be cheaper because it’s difficult to find something affordable and safe in the US. Some of these things may be difficult to change given how unfriendly the US is towards its own consumers, but I overall love using Bookingcom and hope they can do something to punish age discriminating businesses and help save us money when booking domestic.

The room was large and appeared even more spacious with the tall ceilings. The view from our first floor room was amazing. Very large windows and remote control blinds made it all the better. The bathroom was up to date and clean. The bed slept well and I would rate it above above average. The addi... Show more tion of the included mini bar was a nice touch. They restock the wine, water, coke, diet Coke (Coke Light), Sprite, beer, and peanuts every evening. I never heard noise from the nieghboring rooms. The location was central enough to get around easily. It is only an eight minute walk with luggage to the central train station. The staff was welcoming and accommodating. I had but two complaints. First, the water in our shower and one of the double sinks in the room had a drainage problem. They backed up very quickly. The tub and other sink did not have the same issue. Overall, I would say the hotel was the best I've stayed at in Amsterdam.

I love everything about this place and I LITERALLY MEAN EVERYTHING !☝️😫 from the beautiful clean fully loaded house to the breath taking ocean site ! Like you literally take 8 steps out the house and your feet is in the sand and the view and vibe is taking your pain and stress right away ! 🥺🙏♥️ ... Show more I loved everything I slept so peacefully 🤦🏻‍♀️ and they even had items in the closet for the beach such as children toys 🧸 and beach layouts ! 🏖 I definitely will be renting again and definitely would give 6 stars ⭐️ if I CAN ! let’s not forget the $200 dollar deposit they gave me back literally I’m 24 hours 🙏 not 3-6 business days , (24 hours) ! Which was definitely appreciated because it help save me from coming out my pocket for extra expenses while I wait those few days so I really do appreciate and thank you guys SO MUCH I promise this was one of the best birthdays EVER 🥺☝️♥️🤲♥️🌎

First off,I love the location specially if you don’t feel like driving long distances for the most convenient thing’s! It’s great restaurants near by, you have Walmart down the street. I had a king suite room! I love love the amount of space of the room! The room had a hallway from the front door t... Show more o the bedroom it self. The bathroom,I kid you not you could have a party in the bathroom if you wanted too! You didn’t feel so closed in, in the bathroom you had more then enough room! The shower was bomb,It was a walk-in shower which I love! I love the location of my room, I loved being in the corner. Everyone was friendly, and very homey. Even with this pandemic going on, they was well organized. You didn’t hear no loud noise while trying to relax and sleep. The tv was very decent, had good channels. I was dere for four nights,I can’t wait to go back!

My check in time was supposed to be 3 pm and I got there at 4:30, I still had to wait sitting in the lobby for another 10-20 min waiting for her to give me a room number but a man walked in behind me to check in and she gave him his room and he did not have to wait.

They say they are only 2.6 miles from the stadium and they are over 6.6 miles away!! The person checking us in seemed very rude and not very friendly at all!! At check out the lady was leaving the lobby briefly asked me what room and said fine and walked away not sure if I was supposed to do anything else instead, I really hope it was fine because there was no one else around to ask!! Was very disappointed and the facilities was a big let down!!

I am very appreciate the hotel for their understanding and supportive staff that make things easy.

But it’s too late for us to cance... Show more l the reservation just three days before we check in. We called the hotel staff, they are very friendly and thoughtful, they waived our cancellation fee. It’s very pity this unexpected situation happened which ruined our family trip after such a long time we looking forward. But we are very lucky to have a very good experience here to figure things out. We definitely will back soon when we have holidays later. Thanks so much for all the staffs who put their efforts on to help us out. Thank you very much!

From the beginning, Bookingcom, even within context of changing infrastructures, within networks, and all of us with individual security challenges test our patience I knew something was different immediately in the software design of Bookingcom.

That is, I have often felt I was falling b... Show more etween the cracks in apps in the last 2 years, so was this skeptical of one that would hold so much info ( safety, financial) and transport hotel details of a reservation. But, it does, and so seamlessly set up my personal and business accounts (and led me thru process of organizing my 'books') in just making a travel plan that I was unaware of all the gains until now.

The ease of use, for those of us with little or waning patience for glitches, 'fear of losing things' syndrome is great...hang in there thru a 3-4 bookings. it will all start appearing, syncing, all history intact, etc. My hope is (once again...) restored!!! Beautiful.

The check/check out process we so easy. Rooms weren’t anything spectacular but they were spacious and got the job done for our home away from home for 10 days. The beds were SO comfortable. 2 pools on site. Hotel is in a great location with in walking distant of some restaurants/activities/shopping... Show more areas. Super convenient that it had a “convenience shop” in the lobby, as well as an arcade, breakfast restaurant, and lounge/restaurant. About 25 minutes from Disney and 10 minutes from Universal Studios. It has a free shuttle to Universal which we definitely took advantage of. Staff were all nice. Will definitely book again if ever in the area! Literally the ONLY negative of the stay was the 2 story part of the hotel we stayed in didn’t have an elevator and we were on the 2nd floor. Slight inconvenience but nothing worth rating the hotel any less than 5 stars!

I checked in here on Friday and I hate every minute of it.I paid for a luxury room what I got was far from that my first room was room 5111. You can tell the room was hit hard during the flood it has mold everywhere. I requested to get moved because of the awful smell in the room and breathing was ... Show more impossible. When I called to complain they just hung up the phone. The first room we had had fresh cut fruits and a bottle of wine nice presentation but we could not eat anything out of the moldy room we finally got moved to another room that was not luxury with two beds instead of a king bed. Spoke to a supervisor who gave us reservation to a Mediterranean restaurant which already came with our booking lol.. I have requested to be moved to the diamond room and offered to pay more the hotels has refused to grant this claiming they are all full as I sit by the pool and see empty rooms. I have never felt the need to write a review but this is the WORST hotel I have ever stayed in can’t wait to get home absolutely HATE IT unfortunately am here until Wednesday hopefully someone will make this right but I highly doubt it

We have to give this place a one star rating. Starting with the only three positives, 1, when you opened the room door you could immediately tell the rooms had been updated. Then 2, the front desk clerk was extremely nice and patient even though we had to switch rooms 5 times. Finally, 3, even thou... Show more gh we had hardships our final bill was comped $50.

Now onto the unfortunate facts that lead to this rating. Our family booked two double bed suites for the weekend. As we entered our rooms we immediately found two medium sized roaches crawling on the entry lamp and wall near the bed. After going more into the room we found at least 10 other roaches around the beds, bathroom, and kitchen. There were also little black bugs that would fly around and were in between the sheets. We had to request moving rooms 5 different because of roaches and dirty bed sheets in the “alternate rooms” that were available. We finally settled on rooms and throughout the night we wound up killing 5 more roaches. Now we are going have to make sure every thing we have on this trip is checked thoroughly before we take it into our own home.

DO NOT STAY HERE! Me and my girlfriend we’re both woman and a couple booked a room here for New Year’s Eve. We thought we would have a decent room in the back with privacy and some peace. Wrong, in as less than 1 hour we received a disturbing note on my car windshield. You can see for yourself in m... Show more y photos. We felt very uncomfortable and threaten someone at the motel is watching over us. We called the front desk to informed them what’s going on and requested for him to escort us to the car we felt unsafe at the moment. He took nearly 30 minutes. And so we decided to reach out to the cops to have them escort us out the motel in a safely manner. But the cops never showed up of course it was New Year’s Eve. The front desk attendant end up showing up later and we decided to get a refund back it was unpleasant. Cigarette hole inside the comforter, the vent was off the ceiling in the restroom, a cloth towel was hung on the shower curtain/rod used, and red stain on the side table. It may be cheaper to stay for a Motel 6 but this one was the worst one I ever stay please do not book this place!!!

When I first got there I was in a total shock, the place was Dirty, had makeup on pillow cases and hair under the blanket, old, falling apart, ants in the kitchen, very weak water stream in shower, missing remote control. Yes it’s cheap but not even worth that money.
I met with an assistant of t... Show more he manager that was rude, arrogant and completely unpleasant. We did not want to stay there and the refused to give us the money back. We were basically held hostages there because we did not want to lose the money we paid and add more. There were ants on the counter top kitchen and dirty sheets. Owner said he will send someone to clean, when we got back only the pillow cases were changed but nothing was cleaned. I went at 8pm to buy bleach, ant trap and bed sheets + blanket. It was disgusting. We complained again and only heard back the next day. It was only after I complained to the assistant and told hi that if his manager doesn’t contact me I will sue him because I don’t want to stay here and I had to buy all these things. The other apartment was a bit better but still very dirty I had to clean the floor that was so dusty as well. Owner promised to reimburse me for what I bought but obviously I never got that money.

I booked this room late. I was coming from a friends get together and didn’t want to take the long drive home. I choose this hotel because it looked decent, and good surroundings and big enough for me,my daughter, and my fiancé.
Now, when I booked, I made sure to put 2 adults, 1 child. Of cours... Show more e your site makes aware of it and accommodates. So as I arrive, we get our keys and as I walk to the room, it’s TINY. Not even big enough to fit a crib! It’s ridiculously small! So upset because I have my daughter who is crying because she wants to sleep and I can’t put her in this room. The bed was small and pretty much fit just 1 person!
I then had to go back and let the guy know I did not want the room, he suggest a bigger one but there’s a “up charge” but that was after he suggested first to cancel the reservation through booking (knowing I’d have to pay a cancellation fee) and then rebook it.
Now, I have to pay additional money because YOUR website didn’t accommodate my needs! Worst night, so disappointed with your booking! Highly dissatisfied customer!!!! Will definitely tell people about this!
I’ve worked in hotel business and this is not how the booking nor the hotel experience should be

Do not use this thirst party booking company ! I booked my reservation months before my event to avoid any problems with my reservation as time got closer too my event they decided to cancel my reservation the week of my event , first of all they had a month to check if they over booked they still ... Show more had the audacity to charge my card 2 weeks before my event and they still didn’t notice I was over booked they ended up sending me and email saying my reservation was canceled due to overbooking I called and all I was told was there was nothing they could do since they are a “third party booking service “ I know that but still I would think they would help there customers in getting a new reservation for my stay they still wanted me to reserve another property at full price ! And they will refund me the difference it was gettin close to my event that I had no other option honestly my next reservation was bad I had the worst experience and till this day I’ve been tryin got get my difference back and All I keep getting that I will receive wallet credit I do not wanna use there service no more I recommend that you guys don’t neither save yourself the stress and time I would suggest using another booking company

The hotel was near a new mall. The room was small but clean. We stayed for 13 days. On the 3rd day, a bottle of perfume was taken out of the room when they cleaned it. The front desk was notified and they said the cleaning crew knew nothing about it. Nothing else done about it. Use the room safe as... Show more the cleaning staff may not be trusted. The bottle of perfume was not high in value but still bothered my wife because something was taken out of the room. No manager came to talk to us in the next 10 days of our stay. Another thing, we received 2 card keys in the beginning of our stay. One cracked and did not work when trying to open the door. I alerted the front desk and they said they will replace it for 200 pesos as “all room cards are inventoried”. Such a valuable piece of plastic... We continued to stay there as we were already charged for the entire stay. Flip a coin when deciding on this hotel as they seem to be customer friendly until a problem arises. The only real plus were the showers.

Ya. Umm. Find a new in house management and marketing team.... Front desk manager should not look like a peep show girl with a small silver bow in her side part unless at an adult only restort 🤔
