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 are 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 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 KingdomIt was a very compact room, something you would expect in Manhattan in this price bracket, yet the layout made it feel spacious enough, great view, stylish decor and a very high standard in cleanliness. I felt safe and the room was very quiet. Supermarket and restaurants around the corner.

Czech RepublicVery small rooms indeed. Fine for a few nights, but no more than a carry-on suitcase would fit in the room. Almost no storage space - just drawers under the bed.
Very clean room, lot of towels, really quiet location, close to public transport. Nice staff.

Netherlands* Cleanliness in the room: It wasn't very appealing to see some dirt and body hairs (i) between the mattress and the wall, (ii) inside the boxes under the bed. Can the windows and dust from the baseboard be also cleaned? * Great view to the river, however the windows don't cut the noise from the always busy riverside roads. I used the earplugs for the night. * The mattress had signs of sagging. Maybe worth to consider turning it, pivoting it time to time?
* Tea/coffee area facilitates the guests to have also their own meal. Thank you!

BrazilThe room was minuscule. Like, I literally did not have space to open my carry-on bag on the floor, I could only do that on top of the bed. Also, the shower drain was a little bit clogged, which meant that I could shower for more than ~3min before water started flowing to the rest of the bathroom. It also also annoying that the light in the bathroom worked with a motion sensor, because, when you are inside the shower, it can't really detect that you are there so the light would turn off in the middle of showering.
The location is absolutely superb. Very close to Central Park and Museum of Natural History + easy access to transit options, mainly subway. The bed was also quite comfortable and the staff was super nice overall. Can't complain about the wi-fi either.

VietnamThe room is tiny, but i think that‘s the price-quality in NYC.
It is new and modern, also clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. Free coffee and tea in the lobby area is good. Location is good, walkable to the Central Park, and many restaurants and cafes in the neighborhood. Also close to subway station (red, Line 1), that goes straight to Times Square, and South ferry (station near the ferry to Liberty island).

United Statesthe AC thermostat was set to french. was a little annoying to figure out how to set it to AC. but once i did, temperature was great.
I often view a hotel as just a bed. I lived in nyc for 20 yrs, so this hotel being cheaper, and on the upper west side. AND being basically small/compact weren't an issue. bed was comfortable, had a shower/bed/toilet, was quiet when sleeping. To me this is the perfect hotel. It was a small room, but perfect for my needs and expectations. would stay there again.

The position of the hotel is great. near to the park, near to the Hudson River and just two blocks from subway station. The place is really quiet. Room was small but there was everything we needed. Plus nice view. There was coffee and Tee in the lobby for whole day. Stuff was great and helpful. Great place to stay if you are visiting New York and you need the place to sleep over and stay a couple of nights. You will not make a mistake if you choose this hotel.
