How guest reviews work
Each 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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Situated ten minutes from the airport, the drive costs $20-25 by taxi, $15 by private car organised by the owner, and 650 DOP by uber. The area is quite desolate but relatively safe. Convenience store nearby. Very modestly furnished and equipped but the important thing is good wifi and ac. The owner super host!

A small amount of dish soap would be nice. Really small - but some detailed cleaning could be improved. Some mold in fridge and the cabinets aren't very clean.
Host super nice. Super nice upstairs terrace area. Very convenient to the airport. Super safe place to park car.

Simple comfy room, with the facilities to prepare a last meal and early breakfast before heading to the airport to catch an early morning flight. There's nothing of much interest in the immediate area... the key thing about this place is the closeness (and short taxi ride) to the airport. Very friendly and helpful host.

As a traveller i am solution oriented and live with the realities of the country i am visiting. Always do reaserch before traveling to any country, and you won`t be surprised if something does not goes the way you expected.
The Location was good in a safe neighbourhood, close to a Colmado(Little store where you can get what you need) I had my own kitchen so i made my own breakfast with scrambled eggs and beans. And if you dont like to go to the store for a cold beer you can always get one at the apartament fridge. Where the host Julio will gladly help you!!! You are safe in Julios hands, He will help you! He saved my life a couple of times after some hard drinking, bringing food to my door. Exellent food!!! Julio is easy to communicate with and will understand your needs. The first day i arrived Julio tok me to the beach 10 minutes with Bus. and gave me a tour. very helpful. Taking the local bus is cheaper then taxi. Ofcourse to get to the bus you have to cross the street where there is traffick and you should be aware. It depends on how long you are going to stay there so you can find the safest way for you to move around. It was my first time in Santo domingo-Boca chica and i made the right choice staying at Julios apartments.

It’s very difficult to control the temperature on the water in the shower. It’s either boiling hot or freezing cold.
It is like a little oasis in the middle of Santo Domingo. Perfect for a night before an early flight, it’s only 10 minutes from the airport and he can arrange a taxi anytime.
