Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 StatesIt is a vintage hotel, so there are small elevators and small bathrooms although our room had a surprisingly large closet. The windows open sideways and the window sill is low so you would not be able to safely open the window wide on hot days. The beds are very comfortable. Good tea and coffee making facilities, and cookies, make the lobby area an enjoyable place to relax.

United StatesLocation next to Union Square ment that there could be late night noise. My husband thought that there should be a variety of pillows available because they were too plump for him. The power outlets for charging were not next to the bed That meant that if recharging, we needed to work at the desk. If I weren’t so lazy, I would have shifted the desk light to bed stand.
Location. Overhead fan and fresh air. Good sized room. Sears Nextdoor.

United StatesThe coffee was not very good when we tried it but maybe the filter just needed to be changed? It's free though. We just bought coffee elsewhere. Maybe its good sometimes? Microwave in room would have been cool, but I can understand why hotels might not do that.
Location was amazing! Close to everything. The hotel is beautiful and I loved that it maintained some vintage details. The room was very clean. Having a refrigerator was helpful. There was no microwave in room though. There was a microwave in the lobby for guests to use but I felt a little awkward to go down there and heat things up. Endless tea, coffee, filtered water and cookies in the lobby was a nice touch. It felt safe enough considering its San Francisco and you will encounter some unusual activity because its a big city. There were enough people around that I felt safe enough. Also the room had a safe for valuables, I love when hotels have this.

The location was good,just a few mins from the bart station,also the busses are in the same location,so you can go anywhere in the city,get a clipper card,and you can go anywhere,you can also top them up at walgreens,there's one right nx to the hotel,staff were excellent at hotel,and the bed was mighty,so comfortable,
