Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

AustraliaIt was in an area that I’m not sure if I would have felt safe in late at night. Quite a long way from the train station coming from the airport with suitcases in tow.
Security to get into building was good. Room was clean but very small. Had paid laundry room that was helpful for travellers.

AustraliaWould be good to have a bedside table on both sides of the beds - we had to use our cases. There is 1 small bedside table but the phone takes up all the room. When you have a cpap machine it’s very difficult to fit that on there. Hence I used my case. And the beds are very high. But they are very comfortable.
Continental breakfast was included which was good. Beds were very comfy. Easily walk to Union Square. It’s very close to the Tenderloins but we didn’t have any problems. They also have a washing machine & dryer available for use which was great as we’d been travelling for a week before we got there.

CanadaWhile location was great, location was bad when it came to the crowd and homelessness around. It was very scary to walk around, unless you walked north-west. Very close to tenderloin which is notorious for crime.
The stay was comfortable. The great part is the location, access to union square and be out on the road. Breakfast was also decent. Really worked well for us.

ArgentinaThe breakfast was good and the choice was rather complete. The only drawback was that the breakfast room was all too small for such a large hotel. There was a tremendous queue and hassle between 8:15 and 9:00 am when it already closed. A system of seat reservation would help the situation until another big room is made available.

SpainVERY Very small double bed. Don't turn left out of the hotel. Though the area (like most cities) does have a homeless issue it is very profound if you turn left out of the hotel. Turn right, and it feels much safer.
Handy location for all transport. Clean quiet room.Large bathroom and walk in shower. Great Irish gastro pub a short walk. Also short walk to street trolley.

Also the area its nice, its safe, its right in the beggining of tenderloin, but its clean and nice, you have union square 5 min walking. you can go walking all around dowwtown from the hotel. Staff super nice, and clean.

Generally a good stay, Bed was comfortable, good shower. Continental Breakfast availability included in the rate is a plus but don’t expect a full buffet breakfast. Security of the entrance of the structure was good and always monitored by the receptionist.

ItalyHotel is at the beginning of Tenderloin area coming from Union Square and at night it's unpleasant and could get unsafe. Breakfast was minimal. On the last day, the (old) elevator run out of service and had to manually bring the luggage for 5 floors
Staff was available to let me check-in late in the evening, much after requested time, as I came from outside SF. Price is very competitive compared to others.
