Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United States of AmericaThe AC stopped working randomly so woke up in a sweat but it kicked back on. Can't complain much. It was great!
The Sonesta Tempe Downtown was simple, but the basics met my expectations: clean, safe, quiet, and close to downtown Tempe! The staff was especially kind despite a busy Final Four week.

United States of AmericaThe only downside (and for me it was a significant one) is that my room was very dark. My window was on the dark side of the building to begin with and my room was long and narrow. This meant that the interior of the room was basically reliant totally on room lighting. That made it a bit depressing and not a place I wanted to hang out.
This is a GREAT value-for-money hotel right on the edge of the university district. With only a one block walk you are right in the heart of all of the great restaurants and bars that are on ASU's main drag. The hotel is clean, comfortable and has friendly staff.

United States of AmericaIMO, it seemed like it was on the edge of the “college town”. Take that with a grain of salt though as I didn’t really walk beyond the campus or the Whole Foods down the street.
It was in a nice part of the town. A bit of a walk from the ASU campus, but close to some wonderful bars and restaurants. And at a decent price too.

United States of AmericaThe hotel is right next to a train track. The train comes through a few times per day and creates some noise. However, the horn does not blow and the noise didn't wake me up at night as it is muffled by the building.
The location is great because it is within walking distance of many great restaurants and a public park, and about 10min uber drive ($15-$20) from the airport.

United States of America(It was my own fault) We were surprised that we had to pay to park our car. It was written in the confirmation; I just did not notice it. This was the only time we were charged to park on our entire trip, Phoenix hotels did not charge. There was no breakfast offered at this hotel. One of the elevators was broken for part of one day.
The room was very comfortable.
