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 reviewThe positive: - Close to everything in downtown San José. - Convenience with a receptionist available 24/7 and all the rooms have a telephone.
What made our experience terrible: - The restaurant attached to the hotel serves horrible expensive food. Their new manager has also been extremely aggressive with us when we complained that the takeaway salad was just four lettuce leaves, some bits of chips, and sauce all over us as soon as we opened it. - We had one of the many rooms facing the street where all the trams honk all night long (yes) when they pass through this junction. We could not sleep without earplugs. - There were hair from previous guests in the bathroom. It was not properly cleaned up. - The building definitely needs renovation / noise isolation. - Parking per night is very expensive.

Verified reviewFriendly check in staff. Room was clean.
We had to go down to get our own extra towels. No Bell person to help, limited Disabled parking. Expensive overnight parking. Only TV available was pay per view movies- $22 each.

Verified reviewThe staff was friendly, helpful and kind.
We went to eat at the restaurant and were told it was short staffed so there would be a wait— only one table was occupied.

Verified reviewThe cost of our stay in this location made our visit a steal. The surrounding properties were priced significantly higher but there was nothing that made them worth that price that this hotel didn't have. Despite getting in pretty late, the check-in desk was friendly and helpful. Our room was SO spacious and comfortable. It wasn't the fanciest hotel I've stayed in, but it checked all of the boxes that we needed for this particular trip.
There's zero way to block out the noise from the street. Almost all night we could hear the sirens, honking, barking, etc. I understand we are in the heart of the city but there has to be some kind of way to eliminate that noise or at least muffle it. Also, the front door is RIDICULOUSLY hard to open - wind or no wind - that thing is heavy as f%&k.

Verified reviewThe hotel in general is fine, I liked it
They don’t store the suitcases, that’s something important because when you check out you must have a place to store the suitcases is the only thing I didn’t like

Verified reviewThis location was perfect for us because it was walking distance to the event we attended at Plaza de Cesar Chavez. We would definitely stay there again in the future. Great hospitality, very tidy and clean place.
We have nothing... No complaints, concerns or comments.
