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...).

HungaryThe parking is so expensive (even though it's nothing compared to Seattle prices, but it still doubled my bill for 2 nights). Also the rooms were SO COLD.
Amazing kitchen and laundry, great location, friendly community spaces, nice and clean.

United States of AmericaWhen I asked for advice about parking a rental car overnight, I was told it would be best to park it somewhere further away from downtown. There was plenty of free on-street parking and a pay lot was right across the street.
Best price you can get in Seattle. Near museums, sporting venues, Amtrak, National Park Service historic sites, and lots more. Buses and trolleys to just about anywhere in town were close by too. Laundry facility east to use and in good repair.

United States of AmericaBed was not the most comfortable. Place could use a fresh coat of paint/change of color. Not the hotels fault, but a seattle problem of homeless people milling around the general area.
They had snacks in the morning. Ood proximity to many places. Can't beat the price.

FranceThe only thing that I would reproach is that the room and the restrooms were two warm. And I was not able to fix it...
Super well connected by bus to every neighborhood you want to visit, a 5-minute walk to the King street Train Station, and the atmosphere in this hostel is so nice !!! The common spaces are super clean. A few efforts are made for saving our planet. I felt like home in this hostel !!!

CanadaThe room was very hot, with no way to turn down the heat. The water in the shower was cold (but bearable). Pipes that ran through the inside of the room made weird sounds all day/night that even woke me up at one point.
My bed was extremely clean without a speck of dust on it, room was cozy and had big lockers. Staff was helpful and the kitchen is big and well stocked. Location is really close to the station to get downtown and everywhere else. Also towels and bodywash/shampoo were provided which is a plus.

United States of AmericaGreat location for passing through Seattle -- a couple of blocks from the Amtrak King St station and minutes away from the Chinatown/International District station (Link rail, Sounder transit). Surrounded by Chinatown and its many delightful restaurants. As a hostel, it offers accommodations at a fraction of the price of a hotel.
