Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

Nice to have street outlook. Enjoyed the residential area filled with interesting architecture and close to Alamo Square. Public transport excellent and in adjacent street. Staff very helpful.

United KingdomThere's nothing I disliked per se but note that the walls are very thin (you will hear other people talking / noises) and that there's only someone at reception until 5pm. This didn't really bother me personally but someone else might dislike it. Again, not a dealbreaker but communication was all over the place. I had an email, a whatsapp and a booking.com message all on the day before or the day of my arrival, all asking me to confirm my arrival time, all by different people. Might be worth coordinating this a little better.
This hotel is an all-around gem near Alamo Square. The staff is very friendly, the rooms are as pictured. Note that you might get one of the rooms with a view of a wall/back. Not as nice but you'll be out walking all day anyways in SF. The beds are comfy, the bathrooms immaculate, there's coffee in the rooms and at reception. I would definitely stay again!

United States of AmericaLocation right on bus line so you have easy access to public transportation to visit excellent museums, beaches and parks. We had dinner right across the street from our room and it is one of the best French restaurants in the states. Just like my visit to Toulouse, France where the food was incredible- It is all about the ''sauce."

United States of AmericaRoom is a tad small. Would like suitcase stands in room. The room isn’t completely dark for a good rest due to bright LCD panel on the mini-split unit and the electric vanity mirror display panel.
Clean. Most of the time quiet except when other guests are using the staircase. Able to adjust our room temperature to our preference. Steady fan noise to create white noise.
