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 bathrooms were not kept clean enough and the plumbing is bad. They put up signs telling us not to put toilet paper in the toilet and instead put it in the trash can. I've only encountered this crazy requirement in third world countries that I've traveled to which have poor infrastructure. It's crazy to see this in the USA. Fix your plumbing.
Location was perfect and check-in was very easy

United States of AmericaWeak wifi since there are so many people using it at the same time. I had to pay $60 for mobile data during my 24-day stay to enable myself to work. If you are not looking to work remotely during your visit, everything else will be fine. Also, the place is close to a military base and helicopters fly almost all the time, otherwise it's quiet.
Cleanliness and maintenance were amazing. Proximity to cool restaurants and stores was awesome. The hosts are kind and responsive to your needs. I like that they enforce quiet hours which is why I had respectful hostelmates during my stay.

United KingdomIt’s about 10-15 mins’ walk from the metro station, and there’s no lift. As I didn’t bring big suitcase, it’s totally fine. Most time, especially during the daytime, it’s very quiet in the house. Even though it is said mixed room, I think the owner tried to put same gender guests in one room. The kitchen is also good.

SingaporeHad to sleep with 5 other guests in the same room. Host made sure that we're mindful towards each other so we can't make so much noise or talk a lot on the bedroom. There was no dispenser for clean drinking water.
Affordable. Host is very friendly and helpful.

CanadaThe rooms were a little warm throughout the evening even with AC, fans, and windows open. As with any hostels, bathrooms can always be cleaner, but nothing unexpected!
The owner is very nice and responsive via booking.com! We were able to check in early, and leave our suitcases for storage on the day that we checked out. Never had any issues with bathroom usage. Location is walkable to a number of LA spots. Great for the value!
