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.).

NetherlandsThe Tenderloin area is the worst area of the city, but we still felt safe going back home late at night, especially with the separate gate in front and the manned front desk.
The staff went out of their way to give us personalised recommendations! If you want a cheap option in SF, this is it!

AustriaThe property itself is not necessarily "high standard," but it comes with a fair price. This is not a critique per se, just information that if you are looking for a modern and highly clean place, this might not be the best option.
I really liked the way we were treated by the owners/hosts. Their hospitality was exceptional. My luggage was delayed, and they asked back to me various times about help and the status. Can fully recommend a stay.

United KingdomAlthough I knew the property had shared bathrooms I found the restroom situation a bit strange during the night. It would have been nice to have had warm drink availability.
The owner made me feel very welcome and gave me useful information for a first time Traveller to San Francisco. The room was very clean and quiet, and the bed was very comfortable. The shower rooms were clean and the water hot. As a single female Traveller I never felt at risk.

Czech RepublicThe hotel equipment has seen better days. Walls seem to be wavy from decades worth of plaster from previous renovations, but nothing is falling off or crumbling, you just get some 20th century vibe, while looking at that. Tenderloin is a bit of a sketchy place, especially late in the evening, but you can see a lot of crazy things and people in plain daylight as well... However, I have definitely been to significantly worse places where I was more afraid for my valuables and maybe life, so I do not want to paint is so dark as some of the others do. The only possible downside for some may be that the hotel is located in one of the side-streets, good 13 min. walk from Market St. I mean you can still go around safely, as the people of late-night Tenderloin do not actually approach you. Yes, you can still get the "Hey brother, how you doing?" questions from them, and it may be a good idea to answer them politely, but not interact much more. – But one thing you can be sure, do not walk around in your Prada, D&G, LV, Rolexes, ... around, this is not a great place to show off, keep that to Embarcadero, and maybe not even to there...
Hotel is lead by and excellent manager, communication was swift and always to the point, all special requirements (late check-in, bag keeping for extended time) were answered promptly and to my highest satisfaction. Overall it was a great value for the price for a short one-person sleepover where you actually do not need a private bathroom at all (and it was never an issue to find an empty restroom or shower in the hotel at pretty much any given time). And you get a bathrobe, so you really can walk to the shared shower in full comfort!
