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...).

AustriaThe room was a bit small, given that we had actually booked a room for three people despite being only two. There is no real space to store the luggage in the room. Furthermore, the showers (in the communal bathroom space) could use some sort of water-block because even with regular shower usage, the tiled floor in front of the shower could become really wet and slippery.
The "bathroom down the hall" aspect of the room was initially quite a questionable move, but the hotel staff kept it very tidy and clean! Thus it is certainly a good option for travelers looking to save some money. The hotel is very well located, and its easy walking (if you're not restricted in your mobility) to the downtown area. If you don't have any breakfast included in your stay, there is a coffee shop in the lobby to grab your morning coffee (a little pricy though). However the sandwich shop across the street ("Billy's Sub Shop") is amazing, and great value for money!

United States of AmericaColonial vibe was weird--didn't like the pro-settler artwork. Bathrooms down the hall were not ideal but work ok and were pretty clean, regularly. Expensive for what you're getting. Room was very small. No parking on site. Only two bikes for borrow.
Clean, great location. Nice to have bikes to rent (but one had a seat that was not adjustable). Gym was nice but would be nice to have a sauna too. We may stay again in the future but didn't love it.

A stylish and stylish hotel minutes from the city center. The price was a bit higher but that’s the norm in Boston. Shared bathrooms were clean and easy to access. They gave me permission to check in 2 hours earlier than the "normal" time.

United KingdomThe wetroom-style shower meant that the entire bathroom was soaked for the whole of our stay!
The room was ready early so we were able to access it as soon as we arrived, which was a bonus. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. It's a lovely location to explore, and easy to access downtown on foot. The room itself was clean and tidy with good storage space.

AustraliaMy room was a studio on the first floor and so it was a little noisy from the street. Otherwise it was all good.
The location was pretty good, not too far of a walk from the Back Bay area. The staff were wonderful with check in and out process. The vibe of the hotel was great. And the restaurant next door was really good.

FranceContrary to what was advertised you can't get a free bike unless it is summer time. Cost too much for such a simple room.
Clean, with the possibility to bring fresh water to dring in your room from a fountain on each floor. Good system of bag and robe to go to the floor bathroom. Close to a lot of places including one important train station.

GermanyReally nice hotel in the Back Bay close to everything in Downtown Boston. I liked my room. Very confortable with nice large king size bed. The room was small but that‘s fine for Boston. I had a room with bathroom down the hall. There are a lot of clean private bathrooms down the hall. Not having a bathroom in the room did not really bother me as much as I thought. Price was very reasonable for Boston. I will certainly come again next time I will be in Boston
