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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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):
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.
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.).

United StatesFor a Hampton Inn, the interior is very worn and there was a mildew smell in the room. I booked early and paid an exorbitant price which at time of check-in was 60% more than the going rate, $325 versus $199.
Service was outstanding, everyone friendly and helpful.

It was close to the visitors center and downtown shopping and restaurants.

United StatesThe hotel is old but Charleston restricts updates that can be performed. The staff at the check-in area were not friendly. They were very quick with their answers and seemed to be annoyed when I came to their counter with a question. I dealt with 3 different ladies there and their attitudes were all the same.
The location was excellent and I could walk to restaurants each evening for dinner. Being here alone, that was very helpful as the area appeared very safe. I also liked the in/out privileges in the parking garage located there. I was given a plastic card that I scanned each time to get in and out of garage.

United StatesThe placement of the tv was terrible. Got a stiff neck trying to watch it in the evening before bed. It should be attached to the wall in front of the bed instead of on the dresser.
The room was very clean and quiet. It was cleaned daily. The breakfast was also good.

United StatesI think breakfast could have offered more fresh fruit and a better variety of pastries.
The location of the hotel was perfect for touring the city. Being across from the Visitor Center and the bus line was wonderful. The room was a nice size and was very clean. The staff, especially Stacy, was very professional , personable and offered any assistance as to the availability of eateries and things to do.

United StatesThe reception had no record of a modified reservation in my name made by booking.com even though I had prepaid via booking.com. Booking.com insisted that they had spoken to somebody at the Hampton Inn. Booking.com also claimed that they had modified my reservation from March to April at the same reasonable rate. I was forced to share a room with my sister. We soon learned that the daily rate doubled to $625 on the weekend. I asked for a refund from booking.com and they agreed but I am still waiting
It is well situated in the historic district across from the visitor center where they have free buses. The hotel has an outdoor pool (unheated) and offers a free breakfast.
