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 reviewVery nice, modern apartment with smart and spacious layout. The location is splendid, just behind the ancient city walls and next to a metro station that takes you to Bell tower in one direction and to Goose pagoda in another.
Yixi, as a designer hostel dedicated to warming life through design, has a unique passion for old buildings. That's why we specifically chose a location that is relatively central to landmarks such as the Bell Tower, Huimin Street, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the Tang Dynasty Night City, and the Shaanxi History Museum. We are adjacent to the ancient city wall, and there are many nearby shopping malls like SKP and Wangfujing. Yixi is also only about 400 meters' walk from the subway station. Thank you for appreciating our efforts. We will continue to try our best to provide you with warmer feelings and memories during your journey. Thank you again for recognizing Yixi Designer Hotel, and we welcome you and your friends to visit often!

Verified reviewGreat location and lovely staff. Big rooms and nice coffee bar downstairs
Bathrooms. They are very small and dated, with no actual doors but just a curtain, not very practical if you are sharing a room. Moreover you can't flush TP, which is also an inconvenience. Rooms could be a bit cleaner too.
Yixi South Gate Store is a "converged lifestyle aesthetic space" that integrates accommodation, cafe, photography, handmade crafts, and gatherings. In Yixi, every touch on your skin reflects our rigorously controlled details and carefully selected materials. Wooden floors, handmade leather goods, 100% cotton bedcovers, King Koil mattresses, ZARA HOME lightweight quilts, and 100% cotton waffle towels are all designed to provide you with a pure and rich sensory experience. Regarding certain spaces without doors, we use soft curtains as we, as "particular" designers, find doors too cold; soft curtains better suit our overall spatial concept and offer improved comfort in both visual and tactile experiences. This allows you to feel a unique experience from the very first moment you enter the space. Yixi showcases a soft texture. We thank you for choosing Yixi and look forward to welcoming you back for your next stay.

Verified reviewThe staff is great, they all speak English and very willing to help. They took me to my room, explained how the A/C worked etc. All extra communications and questions are possible via WeChat, so you never feel helpless. The room is great, big enough, mine was with an extra sort of sitting room. A/C worked really well. All the bathroom facilities are clean, well taken care of and in perfect working order. On the ground floor there is a cafe that has a really contemporary vibe, and their coffee: you'll love it! The location was the only thing that I would have liked to have more clear info about, and don't get me wrong: it IS close to the city wall and the Drum and Bell towers are within easy reach, that's all as described. Only, the first time finding it is a bit tricky, but with Amap app it all worked out beautifully. There're some supermarkets in the vicinity, as well as a great food court and a number of smaller eateries with great (Chinese) breakfast options. You can also ask the staff for their breakfast options. In 5 words: you will enjoy your stay.
Nothing really comes to mind.

Verified reviewLovely property, can be a bit confusing to find when you first get there but the staff gave really detailed instructions and guides to find it. They also gave various options to get there from the airport, how long each option took, its cost, and detailed instructions on what to do. Interior is gorgeous, really cute and cozy hotel, mini cafe inside that sells coffee and teas, rooms are spacious, beds are comfortable and the whole hotel was really clean. Staff were incredibly friendly, this is without a doubt the single best service experience I’ve received in my time travelling. They were incredibly helpful going out of their way to provide assistance in transport and booking tickets to tourist attractions, providing recommendations on local venues and even helping find the local apps to use such as Amaps instead of google maps (which is somewhat inaccurate here in china). There were laundry machines with English instructions on them for ease of use, a private area outside to hand laundry for hotel guests, and although the bar wasn’t in use, the ice machine for cold water was, which was certainly a blessing in the summer. Staff spoke English really well, google translate will do the rest for you. Cannot recommend this hotel more highly, absolutely loved my stay and would come back.
No mini fridges in the rooms to cool your drinks. But the staff offered ice water to supplement.

Verified reviewRoom was large and clean. Room service came in every day and made sure we had fresh towels and soap + took out trash. Facilities felt quite modern. We used their laundry, and they provided the detergent! AC worked, which is really important in the Xi'an summer heat.
Initially I was a bit unhappy with the location, because it's actually a 1+ mile (1.6 km) walk from a lot of things -- from Wangfujing, the nearby mall, from Huiminjie, the main night market, etc. However, the location grew up on me because (1) it's still only 5 min walk from the nearest subway station (2) on the second to last day we discovered an awesome food court around the corner with great breakfast options. I wish we had discovered that sooner! Lighting can be quite dim, as there are no overhead lights, only floor lamps.
