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 KingdomI like practical when I travel, and unfortunately to advertise a kitchenette was a little misleading. A large fridge and microwave with lots of cubboard space confused me. There was no cutlery or plates or bowls. There was a steamer but no hangers to hang clothes so you could steam them. Nitty gritty things here but it makes all the difference when travelling. The room was also on the ground floor and the loft joined the wall to the apartment and was noisy when people were coming and going.
Staff were lovely, clean apartment and close to all things Hollywood.

Good price. Loved location! Was a short walk to Hollywood Blvd. Felt very secure since there were keypads at each entrance and elevator. We really enjoyed the record player! It was my daughter's first time playing some vinyls. Was nice to be able to do a load of laundry. Would stay here again.

RomaniaThere is no hanger and wardrobe so there is not much place to put clothes I stayed on the groud floor so you could here the noise from above and the neighbor, especially when they were walking or listening to music I asked for the room to be cleaned and they cleand it, but not fully (carpet as dirty as it was/sink too) Not a very practical kitchen: you can wash dishes but didn’t have much space where to put them to dry, also there were no cutleries or bowls provided Washing machine didn’t work, they offered a solution and it turned out there was a problem with the electricity pannel but I couldn’t really have a full wash because the safety of the electricity panel was falling

PolandDifficult to enter the hotel - Intercom with a list of codes where you had to call and introduce yourself. I think this can be a huge inconvenience for older people who don't speak English well. After the whole process of logging in, I was given a list of codes, for different doors with different codes - it was quite frustrating, because everything had to be well remembered or looked up on the phone. In the room, it turned out that we did not receive an extra set of bedding for our son, and when we received - it turned out that it was without pillowcases on the pillows and comforter.
The hotel is in a prime location - just 300 meters from the place where the Oscars - film awards - are handed out. In the hotel everything is automated - code-based. After contacting us over the intercom, the person taking care of the guests greeted us very kindly and helped us check in.

United States of AmericaStrange setup - it seems like a few short stay rooms in a condo or apartment building. The door had an electronic lock that barely worked and locked us out for minutes at a time. The street noise and lights made it difficult to sleep. The decor was lazy and unfinished. They provided only 2 kcups for two nights with two guests. It was adequate as a place to sleep but "boutique" is definitely overselling it.
Great location one street up from Hollywood Blvd.

AustraliaThe walls are paper thin, if you’re on a lower level you can hear the people above you walking which is annoying especially during the middle of the night. The use of electronic locks is also sketchy, we found out room unlocked when we triple checked that it had been locked. Nothing was missing though

Great location and clean room! It was nice with the small kitchen so we could prepare our own breakfast. The pool looked great but it was unfortunately too cold to enjoy during our stay. Very smooth with check in/out via a portal and it felt safe with all the codes for the doors.

AustraliaThe online check in was very frustrating. I am elderly and a non techy. When I received the emails indicating to pre check in online it also quite clearly said there would be someone to have face to face interaction with to check in.. We arrived after dark in a strange country and a strange city to get to a locked gate that we could not access get inside. We were quite scared. Finally someone happened to exit the building and gave us access to the foyer area where we were able to make contact with Fenix by telephone and after much stuffing around managed to check in and get to our room finally.
Location was excellent with an easy walk down to Hollywood Boulevarde and all the action there. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. Although we didn't use them I liked the idea of washing machine and dryer in the room. The external communal area ie pool and sun area was excellent. Overall recommended.

United States of AmericaTV was challenging. Please create written instructions on remote functions, and how to tune in to regular TV. Pool not heated (boo) so could not swim. Also no jacuzzi or hot tub option. No place to hang clothes. No luggage racks. Rug between beds was dirty looking, I’d get rid of it. Could hear footsteps from unit above, heavy feet pacing, late at night. They finally settled down. Good thing I’m a night owl. Hoot.
Staff was super kind and responsive. I arrived early and Jennifer greeted me with a smile. Made me feel welcome. Enjoyed lounging on the roof top deck. My silly cell phone died one evening, thus I needed help getting in because all codes were on phone, of course. Staff helped me out of that bind. The vinyl record player & old records - fun to play those. I did the Jane Fonda workout - ha! Security is great, very safe place. Great towels and linens, bed comfy. Nice kitchen area, clean & new fixtures throughout. Recently remodeled, with retro decor in good taste, books & records. Great proximity to Magic Castle, Hollywood Blvd, Franklin mansions sightseeing - walking distance to all.
