I love this series for its maps (the fold-out kind) that are highly detailed and tell you everything you need to know about a place. If you are a visual/map-loving kind of person (like me!) then you'll absolutely love the maps and this series is perfect for you. The number reason why I buy Moon Metro travel guides is because of the kick ass, fold-out, laminated maps. 5 stars!
I am not so enthusiastic about the rest of the book, however. I felt like the rest of the pages highlighted some restaurants (usually trendy ones), a few interesting shops here and there (but mostly expensive boutiques), and there was way too much info about hotels. I always get annoyed with the hotel section because I don't necessarily need a guidebook to tell me where to stay (there are more than enough resources online). So, 5 stars for maps + 3 stars for the rest of the book amounts to 4 stars overall.
