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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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):
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.
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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

GermanyThe app for the laundry room did not work for us. But we were able to use the washer and dryer thanks to help from housekeeping. So all was not lost.
The location was good. Public transportation was available on Franklin Blvd. Ralphs, Marshalls, are located on Western Blvd, and a 15 to 20 minute bus ride away. Parts of Hollywood Walk of Fame can be reach by walking 10 to 15 minutes on Gower street from Franklin Blvd.

South KoreaThe soundproofing isn’t great so you can hear footsteps of the neighbors plus the noise outside from the cars. On one of the last nights we had some plumbing issues with the toilet/tub and couldn’t use the bathroom for about 12 hours whilst we waited for the plumber. But Joseph was quick in responding and arranging the plumber for us.
The location was perfect and super close to everything we needed. The apartment itself is super spacious, clean and has all the amenities we needed plus more than what we expected. Overall the apartment was really great!

United StatesThe experience wasn’t so great. First night we had issues with window blinds and bedroom AC. In the midnight, the AC started dripping water disturbing our sleep and wetting the floor. We were asked not to use the AC for the next three days. We would have appreciated, if someone had looked into it and fixed them during our stay.
The apartment was comfy and location was good. Joseph was very prompt in responding to our queries over text messages. We appreciate their responsiveness.

NetherlandsAn early check-in was not available, leading to some inconvenience as the check-in was quite late at 16hrs. Laundry system works only with an America creditcard! This was very inconvenient and annoying. No other option was available. Host suggested me to contact the laundry company, which I did, but they couldnt help and also the host didn't provide such an card or solution to use the laundry. So we couldn't wash our cloths the whole week! Very inconvenient. Also no wipes were available for floor cleaning.
Instruction with codes for check-in were sent on time and instructions were clear. In the first instruction one code was missing, this was sent after my mail quite soon. Contact with host through sms during the stay, was also fine. Stayed with parent in November. Room was spacious. It was clean. All amenities in kitchen, including stove. Good studio. Few stairs front and back side of the apartment (if you are on ground floor), no elevator. Didnt use the swimming pool. And the Hollywood sign can be clearly seen from the back street!

South AfricaThe window blinds are not very effective at darkening the room (especially as the lighting for the walkways is very bright). Black out curtaining would be significantly more effective.
Nice quiet location, Great space, very comfy bed, all the facilities one could need & superb service from the management team.

United StatesWoke up early to loud construction going on in the walkway outside my front door. Floors and walls of the building were very thin. Had a neighbor knock on the ceiling to complain about my noise, when I wasn’t making much noise at all. I could hear other neighbors a lot. Also, I would’ve liked to have used the pool - but it was filthy(water looked murky, and the bottom floor of the pool looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in some time- and the pool furniture was dirty.
Great location. Close to Franklin village, but far enough from downtown Hollywood that it’s relatively quiet. Apartment was well furnished, had dish ware for eating meals, big tv, great a/c. Well secured building with a locked carport.

The size, location and furbishment of the apartment. It also had a good patio/pool area to hangout in. The bed was king size and quite comfortable. The apartment had a smart tv which gave access to a lot of movies and tv series for free.

United StatesCode to enter building didn’t work. Eventually a person from inside let us and another group in. As per the info sheet, tried to let Joseph know we had arrived. No answer. Told to try later. no answer or way to leave message with manager so we never met him/her, so we didn’t know whom to leave keys with. Sofa, where one of us slept, extremely uncomfortable— big indentations from overuse. Floodlights outside made it so light inside that it was never dark enough for sleep, even with blinds. Plug in tub difficult to make function.
Location was great. Apartment itself was lovely. Pool was too cold for me, but granddaughter enjoyed it.
