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 reviewThe lobby and staff were very inviting. The suite itself was lovely and perfect walking distance from the venue of the show we came to see.
Check out was a little earlier than I’m used to.
Paige, Thank you so much for your wonderful 10/10 review! We are so happy to hear that our team was able to help make your stay a great one, and that you enjoyed the suite and neighborhood! Our check-out time is a bit earlier than a standard hotel, as we have a lot more to clean than your standard hotel with all of our extra in-suite amenities :) We are glad you enjoyed your stay, and we look forward to hosting you again the next time you "wander home" here to us at The Guesthouse Hotel!

Verified reviewCharacter and size of units
We were told that the rate we received through booking was a mistake. The staff almost seemed upset of “error” and was unwilling to consider extending our stay by one day despite it being a weekday.
Thank you for your feedback and review! I am sorry to hear you had a not so pleasant exchange with our team in regards to your reservation and rate. We do have a new booking system, and unfortunately there was an error with rates and bookings caused by the new system, but that is not the fault of our guests! My apologies again that you did not have a great experience with our team with this interaction. I am happy to hear you enjoyed most everything else about your stay, and we look forward to hosting you again (and going for that 10 out of 10 :)) the next time you "wander home" here to us at The Guesthouse Hotel!

Verified reviewThe location was great, and the room we stayed in was fantastic! The staff were super nice, and overall it was a great experience. The paid parking was a great option, as it was a spot in an actual garage. I expected it to maybe be an open lot or something, so this was way more secure than I had thought it would be.
Honestly, not much could be improved! The layout of the hotel is split up and so I did end up in the wrong hallway at one point, but it was easy enough to get myself back where I belonged.
Thank you so much for your kind words and your 10 out of 10 review! We are so happy to hear you had such a wonderful stay, and that our team was able to be a part of making your stay a great one! Parking can be tricky in the city, so we are glad you were able to utilize our unique and rare parking option :) We look forward to hosting you again the next time you "wander home" here to us at The Guesthouse Hotel!

Verified reviewThe apartment was very nice and quiet. A well stocked kitchen and a large bathroom.
The staff were very uneven. I walked in with 3 bags using a cane and the gentleman at the front desk did not offer to help, just watched me struggle. He reluctantly offered to help me take up a bag after checking me in and I tipped him, of course. Although he took one bag leaving me with two bags and a tote to wrangle myself. Over the course of the five days the staff were constantly gossiping at the front desk complaining about their manager, etc. Unprofessional and unpleasant to hear. One pet peeve: the hotel does not provide any cleaning during the stay. They did remove the trash when asked. But it would have been nice to have the living room carpet vacuumed. You are expected to do your own cleaning. So this hotel is an odd hybrid of an AirBnB and a hotel. Finally, the location is in an emerging neighborhood. Not necessarily the safest, as my son pointed out. Not really an issue for us as we took Ubers everywhere and didn’t walk the neighborhood. But good to know.
Heather, Thank you for your review and your honest feedback! I am so sorry to hear you had a less than ideal experience for your stay with us. Our team is usually ready and willing to help with luggage and whatever else is needed, and I am truly sorry to hear this was not the case for you. I appreciate your honesty and will be sharing your feedback with the team and utilize it as a learning moment! Although we do not offer automatic daily housekeeping, you are always more than welcome to let us know what you are needing during your stay, and we will do our best to accommodate those requests. We do have the front desk staffed 24/7, so we are always here to grab you fresh towels, take out your trash any time, or grab you any complimentary amenity items you may need! We are also more than happy to come up to vacuum upon request! - as long as we have an extra team member available and an available vacuum. Again, thank you for your honest and genuine feedback, and we hope to be able to host you again for a much better experience! Have a great rest of your week! Best regards, Assistant General Manager The Guesthouse Hotel

Verified reviewLovely accommodations. I was upgraded which was delightful. I'm fairly picky but have no complaints or criticisms. Clean, fresh bedding, amazing kitchen. I'll be back!
More like wishes. I would have liked a TV in the bedroom. A light and table on the window side of the couch where the plugs are so you can charge your devices.
Sally, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are so happy to hear you had a great stay, and enjoyed your free upgrade! We have an amazing housekeeping team who prides themselves on keeping the hotel clean and pristine for our guests, and we always love hearing the wonderful feedback! Thank you also for your recommendations! We do have some suites that do have TVs in the bedrooms. Our 2-bedroom deluxe suites and our 3-bedroom suites have TVs in the primary bedrooms, so for next time you could book one of those if you prefer a TV in the primary bedroom :) There is an outlet behind the couch, since we do have the 1 lamp that needs plugged in. We do also have extension cords available and you are more than welcome to ask the front desk any time if you need an extension cord or a longer phone charging cord and we can always look and see what we have available! We hope you are enjoying the holidays, and we look forward to hosting you again! Happy New Year! -TGH Team

Verified reviewLoved the lobby and the local products displayed and for sale everywhere.
The mattress in our room (404) was lumpy and it dipped in the middle. Too soft - it ruined sleep for both me and my partner. Also, the living area was a Lille sterile. Could use some soft textured touches and some cozy blankets to use while watching tv
Erin, Thank you so much for your review and feedback! We are happy to see from your rankings that you had a great experience with our team, and enjoyed the location and amenities of the property! I am sorry to hear about the mattress! All of our mattresses are less than 2 years old, so it definitely should not be lumpy! Thank you for the feedback on this - I will be looking into that mattress to see if we need to replace it. And some cozy blankets in the living rooms is great feedback as well!
