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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

They are remodeling, so the less updated places should get better. Breakfast nothing to write home about. Standard preprepared items.
Room was large and clean. No complaints. Parking a bit tight but off street. Whoever said it was 20 minutes to everything in LA was lying. You cannot go 100 yards in LA by car in less than 45 minutes. Maybe at 2:00am. Not the hotel's fault. It is a good location. Would consider staying there again. Great value for the money (at least the room we.got). Walking distance to Target.

Older building in some need of updates (i.e. carpet refresh), although they have redone the bathroom nicely. Sofa bed is very old and difficult for an adult to sleep on. Main bed was comfortable.
The location is perfect for visiting UCLA. Medical center is less than 5 minutes away. Room was very spacious. We had a nice patio. Staff was extremely nice and helpful, which made for a very pleasant stay. Breakfast was fine, several restaurants in walking distance.

No complaints at all! It's not the newest or fanciest room but what would you expect for the price in Westwood!
Wonderful safe and walkable location close to UCLA, the Hammer Museum and lots of coffee shops and restaurants. Spotlessly clean room and convenient, free parking. Great value.

One minus: the sofa was very stained, with very old stains, while the rooms were very clean, so its hard to understand why this was not steam cleaned.
It's a very well equipped hotel, and despite old-school vibe it offers more than you can expect from 2 stars. Good architecture, very clean spacious rooms and bathrooms, very comfortable bed with matress pillowtop, all you can need for a longer stay including little touches like extra toiletries, tissue box, coffee maker etc make it more like home. Generous breakfast, with many choices including fresh fruit. Very quiet despite being just steps from cafes and a busy street. Definitely recommend.
