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 KingdomBreakfast nice but in a cafe down the road with no chairs, takeaway place. Could mention that! Nice staff at cafe, good tasting food. So not so relaxing but the room was very nice. Location not so great for me but could be if you work close by. My room was noisy due to window onlooking street plus some goings on each night. Still San Fran is very expensive now and I was on a Budget. Still cost $262 for two nights, hardly cheap.
Room is very nice, staff nice, very comfy bed. Clean and professional. Polite. Very polite

United StatesThe location is not the worst in San Fransisco, but it is far from amazing. The area outside had many homeless people and people who seemed to be collecting money in exchange for small white baggies. The entry way smelled of urine as the door next to it was used as bathroom. This not something that the hotel can control but it is something to consider. We were never bothered by any people, and I never felt unsafe as there are "Community Ambassadors" at the Corners of nearby intersections.
The staff was very friendly, the shared bathrooms were never dirty and were kept very clean. Upon arriving and checking in the person at the desk gave us vouchers for a free breakfast sandwich at the restaurant located under the hotel (which we ate at every day). In the room they have a vanity sink whish had amazing lighting to do makeup and check our outfits in. A short walk down either direction brought you to some fantastic restaurants and about a five minute walk to a Walgreens.

United StatesWe didn’t like the musty smell from the carpets that filled the whole hotel during our stay. We also didn’t like that the front door of the hotel was in a sketchy side of the street that wasn’t well-lit at night.
We liked that the bathroom fixtures were new and clean. We also liked the wooden shutter for the window that helped keep light and sound out from the street at night.

United StatesThe hotel is just a street away from a bit sketchier part of the city. Their street is still OK but could be a bit scary if you walk back to your accommodation in the evening. Also, just as an FYI, the hotel placed an authorization on my credit card for the first night about 2 weeks before arrival regardless of the free cancelation policy (reverted it only about 8 days later), did the same for the full amount upon check-in (again, reverted 8 days later), but actually charged my card in a different (third) transaction and not in the authorization they already placed. I’ve never had this issue with any other bookings with the same card, so it’s good to know before booking.
Clean rooms, just like pictures and helpful staff. Also, they gave vouchers for breakfast to the bakery next door which was nice and hearty. If you come with a car, ask the reception if they have a pass available to the close-by garage, they offered it to us on a super friendly price and the garage is very safe and close to the hotel.

United StatesStaff, breakfast, amenities.
Clean, comfortable room with retro fridge and couch in room. Other than the room being stifling hot with no fans or air conditioning, it was perfect. The room was in the middle of the building so our window looked into the center of the building which meant we looked into the rooms of other guests and had no air circulation. Also the rooms are very tiny, but we didn’t really care about that. The bed was comfortable and clean end it served our purpose. They gave us a breakfast voucher for the café and The meal was super yummy. We would stay there again. Staff was very nice.

United KingdomSteep stairs to access the rooms with no elevator or disability access. No spare bedding for pull out beds which were uncomfortable. Due to late check in we had to wait until the next day. Area was really bad, people in balaclavas and homeless people constantly directly outside the property. Felt very unsafe at night.
Rooms were clean and comfortable for the most part.

United StatesWhen we arrived to the location we rang the doorbell which led to a staircase that smelled like urine. At check in, the staff wanted to charge the room again even though I paid in full through booking, I refused to pay again and after checking she saw that it was paid but still asked me to sign the paper with the room fee. I refused to sign the paper so she printed out a new one without the fee. SHARED BATHROOMS - when checking in the staff said the rooms in our floor all share a bathroom and stated that it was said on the booking site. BEWARE if you want your own personal bathroom in your room you will have to pay extra. Thankfully we just stayed for one night. No central air conditioning/ heating. When we walked in the room the windows were wide open so smoke from the people smoking outside was coming in. There’s no ventilation other than the windows. There was a fan on the wall that was assumed to keep the room cool. The heating option was a portable heater. No microwave. No coffee maker. PARKING- there is no parking. Even the parking garage that they claim to be around the corner is only open week days so if you’re staying on a weekend it will be closed. Parking is not ideal as you can only park on the street on certain days at certain hours.
The bed was comfortable. Close to concert location. Working sink in the room.
