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 reviewVery good location near tourist spots for a good price. Hostel was clean, free parking was available on the street (just pay attention to the signs and rules) or for $10 per night right in front of the hostel. The kitchen was equipped, we even had a refrigerator in the room. The only thing that "bothered" us was just one bathroom on the floor, which took a long time to get in.

The owner is unfriendly. Very rude. I felt like a scammer. Never go there. There is too much trash. No staff, only surveillance cameras. No answer when you ask. When you check in, they ask you to call their personal phone. Then they don't answer. And they try to scam you. Make sure to contact the owner only through the website you booked with. That way you are safe. They keep sending you unsafe links.

Verified reviewThe location weren’t too bad
Stained bedding sheet and pillow cases, the fact you had your pay for towels and weren’t notified was card only payments. Male in the room trying to dictate and bully everyone. Two nights I stayed here. Owner suggesting I confront the male, when I had already explained what had already happened. Laundry facilities which had to pay for and poor furniture. Due to male bully antics had to freeze all night, him constantly walking up and down back and forth to the cupboard. Checking on his recreational drugs which he stinked of and taking it in the garden. Owner didn’t fully understand my concerns telling me it’s a shared accommodation, so I’m suppose to put up with it cause it’s shared accommodation. Approach a man who twice man size and height. As I stated should this man approach in an aggressive manner or makes me feel uncomfortable in anyway I have 911 on speed dial. Same person felling the toilet in a state and bathroom. Fridge cross contaminated

Verified reviewThe house was very clean and tidy. It was very close to everywhere. If I go to Los Angeles again, I will definitely come here again.
The people in the room were a little unstable. If you went to the bathroom at night, they were talking constantly. Also, someone was constantly turning on the computer and opening the window. Los Angeles is very cold at night.

It is very dirty and unsafe. Private host and owner, his name is James. The very first day I checked in, he asked me to leave because the code to my room door didn't work at first, and I was robbed of $200.
