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...).

BelgiumI've stayed in many hotels and I know a bathtub increases the price of a room... But for what I paid, the room was small and very plain. Two single mattresses together to form a double bed can be very uncomfortable. Fortunately I was alone.
The location was good for what I needed. The staff were all friendly.

South KoreaOld hotel, inside room and bathroom construction and even the rood door is very old. The price is relatively on the higher side. I could not figure out why Wifi was not stable or connected to the TV, so to get Wifi, the TV had to be turned on, which is not nice for a decent sleep.
This hotel is not very far from Xindian Subway station, about minutes' walking distance from the other side of the river. The hotel was decent and very good considering the price; however, it included breakfast, water bottles, tea, and coffee. So, this could be an option if you need to stay around this area. Good Check-out time.

VietnamThe facility in the bathroom is very old school style. No USB charger plug. The toilet paper is toooooooo thin for my liking. Never seen that kind of toilet paper in a proper hotel before.
Nice location, overlooking 2 bridges and the Bitan area. I choose this hotel because a scene of the famous Taiwanese series “It started with a kiss” was filmed here (the room itself had some damages due to the recent typhoon so I couldn’t stay there). Nice over from the window. Decent-sized room. Good breakfast, friendly aunties & staff. A big plus: You can go to 12th floor and walk out the balcony for an excellent morning view.

United StatesWhile there were some updates to attempt to make the hotel look newer and more wheelchair accessible, its age still shows. Peeling wallpaper, old rickety elevator, rust in the bathroom, old light switches, strong smell of cigarettes. I don't have a wheelchair, but the wheelchair ramp seemed way too steep. The mattress was rock hard, and I'm pretty sure it was just two twin size mattresses pushed together to make a queen-size mattress. However, I wasn't exactly surprised because I chose this room because of nostalgia, not because I was expecting high quality.
The view of the lake was very nice. You could even see Taipei 101 in the distance. I requested room 805 in advance, which is the "It Started With A Kiss" room, and they were happy to accommodate. I was glad to see that they kept the original wicker chairs used by the actors in that drama, even though they're old and worn after 20 years. The heart they added above the headboard was a nice tribute as well, just don't look inside the heart. The breakfast was good, although the "Western" style breakfast was french fries and chicken nuggets, which is typically not a breakfast food in the West. I'd recommend pancakes or waffles with syrup.

AustraliaThe attitude of the counter lady is very bad. The Hotel is called Bitan, but they don’t know how much the swan boat in the nearby Bitan scenic area costs? The window opens to death. It's all pipes and the whole moldy wall. It's terrible. There is no dry and wet separation in the bathroom. When you take a shower in the middle, the water will suddenly become very big and the water will be super hot, and you will be scared every time.
The staff at the breakfast are very friendly and enthusiastic
