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 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):
- 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.).

The main reason for our stay was an appt at dana Farber. We informed the front desk, used the shuttle, but when I returned, my family had been pushed out of our room :( I didn't realize that would happen. So we were scrambling and ultimately did not get a chance to leave housekeeping a tip and we are normally generous with these kinds of things.
Staff was wonderful and very helpful. The room was also to our liking.

bar could have been open. Although the hotel gave away discount coupons to get delivery from Grubhub, it would have been nice to have a real restaurant on the premises
free breakfast was very good. The staff at the breakfast place [Jose and his wife, Encida] were very gracious and pleasant. They are really upbeat

Scrambled eggs were inedible (for me), otherwise the breakfast was good; parking underground at night was a little creepy; the pool was too cold for me and others said the same.
The staff were very helpful and pleasant; the room was clean and offered a lot of amenities.

Spacious and comfortable room and especially bathroom. Staff was very friendly. I liked swimming in the pool though it wasn't heated, but I will swim in anything practically. It would have been perfect if the pool heating were working properly. I really like Homewood Suites and will probably look to book at these type places going forward.

The claim that they have a "pool" is misleading. They have a very small square of water (about 2strides wide)

Only meat on offer at breakfast was pork. This was not very inclusive and did not take account of religious or dietary diversity. One lift kept going out of order.
Room was clean throughout. Good reliable shower. Provision of breakfast was great. When I requested something, it was dealt with quickly. Friendly warm welcome by one of the main breakfast staff member was appreciated.

Price: Probably give it a C- This was a weekday. A thursday. This was the most I've ever paid for a hotel so I wasn't impressed with the price And I paid for garage for my car, but I did like that I had a place to park. I've paid half this amount in the Seaport District hotel in Boston overlooking the water with a breakfast and gorgeous room. So not to happy with price.
Breakfast was A+ and the gentleman putting it out was so friendly and hospitable!!! Room A+ I've stayed in lots of hotels and this was the cleanest hotel and room I've ever stayed in!!!!! Staff: All staff super friendly. A+ Location: A+ perfect for me taking a Uber to the Argganis Arena
