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.).

United StatesI didn’t like that my heater did not work. The door was missing a part on the outside lock. There should be an inspection of the rooms to determine the condition to avoid this .
It is pet friendly - which was the most important. I liked that the rooms are not carpeted. Nice view of the water and nice area surrounding to walk a dog.

United StatesLook at my first answer it explains it all.
The Staff is always exceptional. They will address a problem right away. The beds are comfortable. The hotel needs a lot of updating especially the toilets need replacing because, most of the ones I used are too low like for a child. Most furniture needs replacing. The price is a great value and most of the time it is quiet. The location is great very close to the Island of Alameda and Downtown China town. I would like to thank the staff for all their hard work and kindness.

United StatesI want the pool to be a hot tub and not a unheated swimming pool. Needed more amenities like breakfast and coffee and a gym and make that pool a hot tub.
The beds are super cozy. The TV has Netflix app and YouTube app. My room had a refrigerator and a microwave. It's a basic hotel room. View of harbor. You can bring your pets Parking is free.

United StatesThe room could've been cleaned better. Table was dirty and so was the toilet. It did smell a little like smoke but not too much, so maybe a little more air freshener should be used.
The room is a basic room to sleep. Nothing fancy . The location is good, not too far from airport and get to downtown or San Francisco quickly.

United StatesThe room was fine everything was fine except that there was only half a roll of toilet paper.. and I'm a woman and I need more toilet paper than that... but I didn't need it that day because I left very early. I'm sure if I asked the gals would have given me some more... I just thought it'd be more convenient to leave an extra roll in the bathroom

FranceIf you don't know the US and this kind of places,you can feel a little bit scared by the neighborhood. But it was just a first time feeling as everybody was kind and respectful. Motel 6 are good places to stay for not that much money.
Place was good and ok and people around were kind and respectful.

AustraliaArea is a bit sketchy. A group of people were right outside our room talking loudly until about midnight, not great when we had a 6am flight. Would have been good if there was a phone in the room to ring reception or security as I’m not even sure if they were guests.
It was fine for a one night stay. Staff were friendly. Room was big and clean. Close to the Oakland airport which is what we wanted. Good burrito truck out the front!
