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 KingdomRock hard butter at breakfast time! Good idea to remove it, put it in the room fridge, and let it soften a bit before going to breakfast the next day!
Large room - everything we needed.

United StatesThe bathroom didn't have a ceiling fan. So when showering the room became uncomfortable. Super hot 🔥 Had to leave the bathroom door open.
The rooms were clean. And the selection of breakfast items was great. But not bottle water for guests.

Room was clean, had a microwave, fridge, and coffe maker. It was roomy, and had plenty of storage space. Maid service was very good, and clean towels every day.

AustraliaInitially noise levels when we arrived.
The room was clean and comfortable and the staff were friendly. The outlook was a bit of a let down as we were surrounded by workers and their trucks who had practically booked the whole place. But hey, they have to stay somewhere too...so we just accepted it. We were initially worried that the other patrons would be too rowdy as our next door neighbours were a bit noisy when we arrived...but it was a quiet night...they were just too tired! 😀

United KingdomGuests smoking cannabis in the Carpark and the smell coming into your room . The hotel needs to do something about this considering it’s a no smoking property
Check in went smooth . Comfy clean rooms . Lots of tv channels. Breakfast ok for continental. Pool area good with pool towels . Area around the hotel was good with a good selection of shops and restaurants. A 100% non smoking property you have to go off site to smoke .

United StatesThe bed was not terribly comfortable. It seemed to be an air mattress, but was quite hard. Furnishings were rather old and in need of some upgrades. The A/C unit was loud, making it difficult to sleep.
Room was well furnished, and they upgraded us to a two bedroom suite, although we really didn't need or use the second bedroom. Room was clean and the shower was fine. The included breakfast was not lavish, with no hot food except toast, but the inclusion of croissants was a nice touch. The central location on State Street put it close to many services, ie grocery stores, a mall, bakeries, etc.
