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 reviewIdeal location, we could enjoy the city fully by walking around, without using our car for several days. Going to the beach by walking was the best.
The room was quite hot during the night (and as it's a central area, we could not open windows because of the noise).

Verified reviewGood room in an excellent location directly across from the best Basque cheesecake in town!
If you're a lighter sleeper I'd recommend packing your earplugs. We had some noise from the street during the night.

Verified reviewBea is friendly and helpful. Location is excellent. Room was very clean. Nice toiletries provided. We enjoyed the small balcony. Good value for money in this part of town.
The room was very small and somewhat stuffy. Open windows helped but had to be closed at night due to street noise.

Verified reviewWe were very impressed by this pension. It was excellent value especially for the location. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the amenities were great. The owner takes pride in the pension - everything has a homely but professional touch. The room was cosy but nicely furnished and decorated, with modern private bathroom and balcony onto the old street. The pension is located opposite the famous La Viña bar so it's very convenient for trying cheesecake at the end of a pintxos bar crawl. It is located in the old town - the area is lively and in the heart of the action (perhaps not for you if you're looking for peace and quiet - morning trash collections are very noisy but no fault of the pension just part of being in the city). Parking was easy at the underground Okendo parking and a discounted ticket can be purchased from the pension. It was a 15 minute walk away. A walk up Urgull (not far from the Pension) provides great views over the city, beach and bay. Hope to stay again.
Everything was great.

Verified reviewThe location .The access to coffee and water in the pension.Although the building was very old the place was spotlessly clean.
The rooms even the "deluxe"were very small.We booked the deluxet as it was the only room described as18m2 with seperate beds (one double and onesingle )We were two friends obligated to sleep together in the double bed cause if we opened the sigle there was no free place to move at all.Only the bathroom was spacious,thus the rerigaretor was placed in there.!
You have to have very little shame to say what you said. We didn't force you to do anything. I personally offered to remove the large bed and replace it with two single beds (give me a little time to make the change), and you refused. NO SHAME.

Verified reviewAwesome location!!!! Step outside and you’re right there in the thick of the old town. And a short walk to the beaches. The host was simply delightful, thanks x
The room we had has an internal view to other buildings so dark, though quiet. We chose not to have this elsewhere, and perhaps would not have selected this one had we known. Cash required for tea and coffee making in the main area. Compact space but consistent with the area / old town. Happy overall though.

Verified reviewProperty very close to the centre of the city. Excellent for exploring San Sebastian on foot. Up steep stairs but there was a lift. Host friendly and helpful, arranged easy access to the room via phone call as we arrived during siesta time. The room was well appointed and comfortable.
Dark hallway on ground floor, looked shabby but there was a lift to the guest rooms on the first floor.
