How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done 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 of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Verified reviewThis place should be condemned; upon arrival we were met with homeless people in the parking lot. When we entered the lobby area, no one was at the front desk, we were met with a walkie talkie that said, "use to call front desk". We called and 12 mins later a young man showed up. We checked in and he charged us 17$ for parking, I got the room for 101$, total was 118$. We got to the room, and it was bad, the curtains were torn, the rafters were hanging, the door to balcony was bolted and the worst part was the smoke smell from cigarettes. The bed was barely made and made a squeak sound This was the first time ever, that I walked in and looked around and walked right back out. We left immediately! Donate the building to a non-profit to shelter the homeless that live downstairs.

Verified reviewNothing this place is the worst not only did they charge me for my service dog the place was gross, the was a homicide stain on the floor that my dog wouldn’t even smell, the tv had no sound and it was next door to the train railway, you have to pay for parking and pet so my amazing room was 59 dollars more than the room cost, crachead were abound and pit bulls with druggie owners were abound, dint trust the pictures, the staff was rude and even though I have a service dog certificate I still got charged 25.99 even though the booking website says 15.00. I’ve been a booking member for a long time and never except once wrote a negative review but be warned
Nothing

Verified reviewIt was close to the convention center
The rooms on the tram side are very loud all night. I was offered to "upgrade" for $30 per night to a room on the other side. The rooms are dated with popcorn ceilings and uncomfortable spring mattresses. The proximity to the convention center is great for the price, however knowing what I know now I would have booked something more expensive a bit further away from the noise to get a better night sleep.

Verified reviewIt was by a very crowded street. The carpet was so dirty Moreover, when we get there they asked for $17 parking fee and they said it was mentioned on the app. It was very hidden in policy section. It felt like fraud because they mentioned there is a parking available but then they asked for fee. Why don’t you mention it somewhere that people can see when booking the room? If I knew that, I wouldn’t book this room and would definitely spent this money for another hotel with breakfast, which was available.
I am sorry to hear that our parking fee was not clear to you online, I will pass this on to my managers. Being in the heart of the events district, if we did not charge for parking or validate it, we would run out of parking frequently (whenever there is a concert at the MODA center.) Our parking fee also pays for overnight security for our lot which I would say is definitely worthwhile.

Verified reviewThe air conditioner worked well. The television worked well, though you may want to consider getting television remotes that can access the "sleep" function of the television set. The mini-fridge worked adequately enough to keep our sodas cool, though not cold. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. When I fell, the one gentleman helped me back to my feet and made certain I was okay. He seemed genuinely concerned for my well-being, not that fake syrupy "please don't sue us" concern you would typically get from most people in his position.
There is absolutely nothing shielding one from outside noise. The single pane glass windows, which seem to barely be holding in place, allow virtually all noise from outside to penetrate. I was awakened multiple times throughout the night by people walking by yelling, sirens, a semi-truck running over a guy on a scooter and tweakers having loud conversations with their imaginary friends. (I am not joking about the semi-truck.) The beds are not very comfortable, however, I acknowledge that this is a purely subjective statement. No two people are going to enjoy the same bed the same way. The bathroom was extremely small and difficult to maneuver in. The fan in the toilet/shower room did not work. The sink appeared to be brand new, which was strange given how everything else in the room seemed to be old and worn. Watch out for the threshold of the hotel lobby door as you exit. It is raised just enough to catch your toe if you don't lift your feet high enough. I did this and ended up falling and breaking one toe in the process. Not that big of a deal, other than the couple weeks of healing I am going to need for that toe and the sore muscles from the fall. Parking is extremely limited and very tight. Expect to conduct ten point turns to maneuver your vehicle out of its parking space.
