FlipKey
FlipKey is an online vacation rental marketplace. It is a subsidiary of TripAdvisor.[1] In 2016 the company listed more than 300,000 properties in 179 countries. Its headquarters is in Boston, Massachusetts, United States.[2]
Although rental owners are verified by the company's staff before being added to the FlipKey website,[3] the site relies heavily on traveler reviews of rental properties. FlipKey also publishes ratings for travel-related items such as food blogs[4] and in the United States it provides ratings of national historic sites.[5]
Citing complaints that FlipKey would not guarantee functional amenities in its rental sites, in 2016 Better Business Bureau gave the company an F rating.[6]
