Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 Statesnothing to contribute here. The "L" is a bit noisy but does not run after a certain time.
First time to stay at a Lokal hotel property. We were going to a show at Johnny Brenda's and booked this property. It was beautifully designed with a spare Scandinavian feel. The rooms were comfortable and spacious. The location was great, the show was great and everything worked out really well. We are now staying in a different part of Philadelphia, and I am missing Fishtown and the Lokal!

United StatesThe place was spacious and comfortable, the facilities were luxurious, be it the shower or the tub and other spa-like details, as well as the super comfy bed. Attention to detail was evident in every small touch. While Fishtown is not near the city center, we found the nearby blocks to have some very cute restaurants, bars, coffee shops and breakfast options that were all very charming. Maybe because we were tired, but the train by the windows did not wake us up.

United StatesWell, to be in philly and not have live security OR a bolt lock available on your door was a bit concerning for me. Also, there was no warning about the 3 story walk up with no elevator, carrying luggage (for some people this would be literally impossible.
Located in a great hipster neighborhood of restaurants and shops and cafes. Huge space, very well appointed and decorated. The french press made us feel at home.

United StatesParking can be tricky. The area could also be a little tricky but didn't take long to figure the best way to venture. We also had a front room and the train went by directly outside our window. The hotel did provide ear plugs and a sound machine. Really wasn't that much of a bother.
There is no onsite staff but they go above and beyond to make sure you have all the necessary information as well as information on the surrounding area. The room itself was great! Beautifully decorated, spacious, comfortable, and clean.

United StatesFront door is not very well labeled (no text, only the hotel's logo, which I didn't recognize) so we missed it at first. Parking was also a bit hit or miss, the two recommended lots/garages filled up quickly in the evening.
Very stylish rooms. Loved the contactless check-in and check-out. Room has a kitchen and just about everything you could want. Train noise was minimal in our room, just a low rumble.

United StatesHotel is next to a train line, which could be an issue if you are a light sleeper. It really wasn't that loud though, it didn't wake me during the night. I also appreciate the staff reached out to us beforehand to tell us about it.
Room had a great layout and everything in it was great quality. The location was great, walking distance from the show we were in town to see. The morning we checked out, there was lots of brunch spots around to go to. Lot's of great resources in the room to help you figure everything out.
