How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe location is PERFECT for concerts at the Keseya Center (Miami Heat arena) and Bayside visits. The hotel was extremely busy for the Labor Day weekend and the Lady Gaga concert, but the staff remained friendly and handed out Welcome drinks to everyone while they were waiting in line to check in and receive their hotel rooms. I did not get a chance to visit the pool or gym area, but other guests that I spoke to said they were both very nice. I also heard from other guests that the food around the pool area was very good!
I have nothing to report that did nit live up to my expectations.

Verified reviewI love the location & all the things that there is to do & the atmosphere it excellent & exciting. I love sitting in the lounge/ lobby. Manual is excellent at everything he does & always makes us feel at home & he has an amazing & excellent personality. I also love how close the shopping & restaurants are in walking distance.
I was charged a $1000 deposit unexpectedly & when I booked it, I was told I would be charged up to a $200 deposit since I paid in advance. I only paid $200 last year when I stayed there. I asked in advance to be placed on the highest floor possible & was actually placed on a lower floor than I had last year when I stayed there. I had to ask for face towels & towels when I arrived because each bathroom only had one each. Last year was a lot better when we stayed there.

Verified reviewThe property is beautiful. They have amazing amenities that come with the room. Some of our favorites being the beach side access, morning workouts with an instructor, and the Pool and Hot tub. The view from our room was perfect and just what we were looking for. Everything was very clean and housekeeping was great. They provided me with my few requests- quick too! This place is a hot spot for sure, a little restaurant/ bar, along with a terrace bar that was busy most nights. The hotel design and decor is intriguing as well, luxurious for sure! Our room was beautiful and comfortable. We really enjoyed our time here.
The only thing I didn’t LOVE was the in lobby staff. All of the gentlemen holding doors, escorting, were very kind and friendly. At the front desk, the girl talked so fast giving us instructions. It’s very hard to understand clearly. You can tell she’s been here awhile and just doesn’t care to throughly explain. We had 0 idea what to do with our key cards as they are very different compared to a normal hotel. Although, I’m glad they had another person at the desk by the elevator request. I also didn’t like how this property states they have free parking access when booking and they don’t. They only offer valet parking, you have to park off the property otherwise.
Thank you very much for sharing such detailed feedback about your recent stay. We are delighted to know that you enjoyed the beautiful views, the comfort of your room, and the many amenities. It is wonderful to hear that our housekeeping team promptly attended to your requests and that you found the design and atmosphere of the hotel so appealing. We also appreciate your comments regarding your arrival experience and the clarity of communication at the front desk. Your feedback is valuable, and we will review it with our team to ensure a smoother and more welcoming experience for our future guests. Additionally, we have noted your remarks about parking, and we understand your perspective. It is a pleasure to know that, despite a stressful beginning, you truly enjoyed your time with us and plan to return. We look forward to welcoming you back and providing you with an even more seamless and memorable stay in the future.

Verified reviewThe layout of the room was perfect. Beds were very comfortable. The location was prime. It is directly across from Bayside, which has entertainment, food, and shopping in a super short walk. Staff was friendly!
Booking stated a $200 deposit. Upon arrival, it was $200 per night! Too pricey. There is no need for $200/night.
