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):
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.
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.).

It was clean, fantastic discount on the night before Thanksgiving. Otherwise, fantastic place. Parking under the motel. Vintage motel. No elevator, bit you won't need it if you get the ground floor. I felt safe.

United StatesThe light in the entry walkway was on all night and blinders in the window did nothing to block it. Would really suggest a heavier curtain option to block light.
The room was nice and clean and loved the back balcony.

United StatesIt didn't quite have a squeaky clean feel when we arrived, but it was just fine. The road noise from El Camino was pretty loud at night in the room except with the A/C drowning it out.
Lee at the front desk was very welcoming and helpful. Great location for apartment hunting near Stanford. Within walking distance of a few eateries and coffee shops. The king suite was very spacious with a nice desk, armchairs, and small table in the room. The room also had a mini fridge and microwave. We enjoyed the budget stay.

GermanyThere were a bit of noise from the neighbor car workshop in the morning time.
This is a nice place to stay. close to bus station if you care about it. I was there for about 3 weeks. They don’t serve food but there are several restaurants and a Starbucks close to this place. I had problem with WiFi and they provided me with a router in the room that changed my internet from 10 to 100. Staff were excellent and very professional. The room was very clean and room service was ~every 2-3 days.

United StatesI always like to have coffee first thing in the morning but this was not provided. Either in room or in lobby. But you can walk just down the road 10 minutes to McDonalds. There is a lot of noise from El Camino Real traffic but this added to the novelty of the stay, you get used to it. This is not a new Inn and could use a little painting here and there.
The location was perfect for the tasks at hand, easy access to bus, stops right in front, near access to main road arteries to drive in all directions. Room was large and clean and comfortable. There was a shower but no bath. The large TV was excellent . It had a small refrigerator and small microwave so you could bring back food and reheat. The management was extremely helpful and kind. Even arranged for the UBER to take me to the airport early AM. Many places to eat close by in walking distance. It had individual heating and air-conditioning unit in room. Sea gulls sang on the roof at daybreak!

United StatesThe outside property is a little run down, very steep drop into the parking lot. The property was a little hard for my special needs child to navigate i.e. the steep driveway and the stairs to get to and from the room. The bed was a little too hard for me. Also, wasn’t able to figure out the A/C unit but the temperature was fine.
The room was so spacious and clean, honestly bigger than some apartments I’ve seen in the Bay Area. I was very glad to find a microwave, refrigerator, even a small kitchen sink. I was also impressed there was a balcony. Check-in was easy and the staff was nice and interacted with my kiddo who was dying for some attention after a long car ride.

United Statesthe outside light shines through the window enough to wake me up. Bring an Eye mask and ear plugs for a great nights sleep. Parking is as tight as it is in a European garage, meaning you better be a dang good driver in a small car to fit in a spot.
comfortable bed. big soft pillows (too bad if you like flat ones) smelled extremely clean. fridge and freezer actually works and there was a patio! Huge TV with all the channels. As a woman traveling solo with a baby, I felt safe. An eye mask and ear plugs are a great idea.
