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):
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.).

JordanWhen we arrived no one helped us with the luggage that we had to carry them to the lobby for check in, they didin't provide water in the room that you had to go down at the reception to ask for water . There was no hot water for shower we had to call maintenance they told us it take time to get hot water which took almost everytime 30 min or more for hot water, crab and go for each room per day 10$ but most of the stuff is very expensive either 8 $ 6$ or 12$ so you won't be able to use 10$ either to pay extra , i recommend to add stuff with these prices 6$ 4 $ . the room is small you barely can storage your luggage .
The location is really good, the check in process was fast . they have luggage storage for you when you check out , which is great . the guy at the door helped us order a taxi to the airport .

BermudaOne of the elevators was not working, causing the service of the other two elevators to be slow. There were long waits for the lift everyday of my stay.
I love the location of the hotel. It is in the heart of the city and close to the shops and Broadway shows. The rooms are super cozy, clean and the staff are always helpful!

United StatesThis hotel is in a great central location. The staff were very friendly and super helpful. The rooms are on the smaller side, but it was great for just the two of us. I saw a few historical comments about elevator issues; but, we did not experience any issues. Getting into the elevators, at the ground level, is a little cramped. If we visit NYC again, we will definitely consider staying here again.

United StatesI did not like that the tv was outdated. Nobody wants to watch regular channels anymore. They need to add streaming asap. Breakfast was also not good…I asked for eggs scrambled with cheese they literally threw two slabs of cheese on my eggs and hoped it melted which it didn’t. Bacon and potatoes were soggy.
The convenience of everything. The staff was very friendly
