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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

The secondary lock was not working. Although I just stayed there for 2 days so I did not bother to ask for a new room or new lock. I just bring my important stuff with me whenever I go out.
It's good enough to stay for the night since it's not really a staycation and I am out most of the time. I'll go back here next time. It's like an apartment hostel-ish. 2 Floors. Neighborhood was good. There was no wow effect but at least it's clean, there's small like Asian small bathroom, enough space to do your business. But you will have to change your clothes outside the bathroom because it is cramped. But it has cupboard, sink, and a cabinet to put stuff. It has fun, and decent aircon. Internet connectivity is decent. Not super fast but not slow either. Just enough speed that I can do an online meeting without a camera on for my classes.

The road leading to the hotel is in poor condition. The downpour created a mini pool or huge puddle (take your pick) just at the point where the vehicle would turn right from the main road towards the hotel. It was enough to discourage me from going around the neighborhood the morning before i check out from the hotel.
I liked the helpfulness of the staff. They walked the proverbial extra mile to extend assistance, like meet me with an umbrella because it was pouring the night I arrived and hail a cab for me at the roadside, which meant walking some distance from the hotel. There was also a mini store selling instant coffee and chocolate drinks, and chips. It was open 24/7. Mind you, for a budget hotel (i just needed to stay the night before catching a bus home the next day), the mini store was a pleasant surprise.

The heater in the bathroom did not have control for temperature. When turned on, water will eventually reach scaldingly hot temperature so better prepare to avoid it.
What I like most is the location of the hotel as it is very near to SM City. The staff were also attentive to our every request. I'd say i had a value for money experience staying there.

The bathroom is too narrow; when I sat in the toilet bowl, my knees where rubbing the wall. The street address is not familiar to taxi drivers but the name of the hotel is. There was a millipede roaming inside the bathroom plus another one crushed and stucked under the door.
I arrived a little bit earlier than the check in time and the kind attendant allowed me to check in. The room is small but soundproofed. The sheets smelt and looked clean. The location is also convenient for me as it is just 2mins walking distance from SM City.
