Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United States of AmericaThe front door to the actual hotel room building does not close properly- so it in essence was open all the time to anyone. The room was not that clean- food or drink remnants were visible on my nightstand- cleaner obviously does not have a good eye. The toilet was constantly filling its self up every 10 minutes and had nasty brown stains in the bowl. I hope that they were water stains from years on neglect cleaning and not you know what. The chest of drawers was falling apart- come4 one you can do better than this- its basic stuff. Very happy my wife had to cancel the trip otherwise we would have had to move somewhere else
Front Door staff were very helpful in allowing me to check in early upon arrival. Great location right in Little Italy- walking distance to Balboa Park, Downtown, marina and more. The bed was quite comfortable.

Austriaapart from small repairs that would be necessary in the room, the corridor to the rooms on the first floor has a smell that takes some getting used to. i would also prefer it if the stairs could be used for more than just emergencies.
well - it is what it is. the description is accurate. it's not a luxury hotel - but we didn't expect that. the room was okay. the bed was very comfortable and everything was clean. a few small things might need repair, e.g. a shelf in the bathroom that only has the brackets left, but the location in little italy is very good and it's also close to the highway. the staff at check-in was incredibly friendly and helpful.

United States of AmericaNone are deal breakers but... Small parking lot with only one way to go in and out. At night and then again in the morning, someone was yelling and cussing on the street, I believe. Not to prevent me from booking again, but the room was not like pictured.
The staff was exceptional! The location next to on ramp that we needed next day was great! Bathroom was perfect to handicapped. Easy to find and staff was available for checkin even at 1130pm.
