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.).

United KingdomThe fact that hot breakfast was only for 2 people even though we were 4. We had paid for breakfast included, so this should be made clearer and not just on the small print on a breakfast voucher. Ended up having to pay extra just because 2 of us had a very small portion of scrambled eggs....
Good location, car park next door

United StatesThe coffee serve at breakfast, it was watered coffee. They need to update the toaster, they took forever to toast a muffin, and the coffee pots served looked run down. For the price, everything served was good except the coffee. Since there are no breakfast options nearby, only coffee shops and bakery.
The room was good, clean. The location was perfect for easy access to every area I wanted to visit, museum and downtown area.

United StatesHaving a restaurant right there on the property was very helpful (and delicious) when we arrived, so that we could get settled in our room and have an easy meal. The breakfast buffet was good too. Our room size was big, and the window looking out was great when watching the fog that had rolled in that night. The location of the hotel is exceptional when it comes to just leaving your car parked and touring the city by foot.

United StatesThe price is a New York City price for a Portland Maine hotel ie: holiday inn…. The pullout couch had no sheets and we told them we had three people and paid for three people. It was one king and a pullout. We had to call twice for sheets once was after we came in in the evening and they still weren’t there Then they were just handed to us. Nobody made the bed we made the bed. There’s no closet The bathroom is small There are no liners in any of the trash receptacles/waste baskets in the room Where to pay to park at the hotel, and there were several other people that seem to park there not be to the hotel and the gate just opened and closed freely
I love the location The staff is friendly

United StatesOur mattress was much too soft. A firmer mattress would have been much more comfortable. I wish the parking for hotel residents was free, or less expensive.
I liked the location. I liked the water offered in the lobby. I liked having the parking garage. I liked that it was close to the Portland Museum of Art.

United StatesThe wait time at breakfast can be a little long, but this is not a criticism of the staff. It *IS* a criticism of whoever is deciding that 1 person or 2 people can possibly take care of all the guests there in the morning. (They have to greet you, seat you, get your coffee, get your juice, get your water, get your silverware, and take your order and then bring you your bill and then come back and take your bill -- in addition to cleaning up your table after you leave and setting out new coffee cups and silverware BEFORE they can then seat the next guest there, etc.). THIS is the ONLY problem we found -- but the hotel needs to address this! Again, KUDOS TO THE BREAKFAST STAFF, including the greeter/server and the cooks (who constantly kept an abundant amount of food out on the buffet AT ALL TIMES).
The staff were great. The front desk staff were able to answer all our questions. The cleaning people were on the ball. The staff at the breakfast area are EXTREMELY good. -- By the way, we booked Room 1126 (11th floor is the top floor). It's a bigger room with a king bed and a view of the bay and downtown. GREAT VIEW! Worth the additional price. (When you book, book a room with a Bay View -- see 2 photos of the view from our room)
