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.).

AustraliaVery basic for the cost. Pillows on my bed were stained, very limited utensils and kitchenware. Winter in NYC but there was only a sheet and light doona. No blankets. Fourth floor with suitcases is a bit rough.
The location is great and the size/feel of the place is nice too. Service of housekeeping offered everyday which was good. TV and heating console good too. Easily accessed.

BelgiumWe knew this on beforehand, but no-staff-operation makes it very unpersonal. On-line check-in is not very customer friendly. Room (floor) itself was not cleaned after first & 2nd night - only towels renewed & bathroom cleaned. There were several things broken, which we mentioned at check-in. Never received a response. For such a rate, I would expect a room in better condition and things to be fixed.
Great location in a lively neighbourhood, that's the reason why we choose for the "hotel" The staff at the sisterlocation (for the bagage storage) was very helpfull and friendly

Hong KongWish the shower and ventilation works better. Shower head was not focus and very weak, the drainage was problematic as well.
Nice location to explore downtown Manhatthan and Brooklyn. Local vibes. Close to lots of popular bars and eateries, Chinatown, bridges towards Brooklyn. Easy to get to train station. The lady doing room service was very helpful and kind. Did not receive any access email after check-in, keep messaging the hotel but did not get any reply. Luckily she was there to help when I arrive. The room is equipped with kettle, fridge, oven and cooking equipment. Did not use them though.

United StatesThat first night was not ideal (weird lighting, window was extremely hard to open), but also it was still a good deal.
The first night I arrived late at night and was in a kind of depressing room. Luckily the friendly staff moved me to a beautiful room for the rest of my stay. The staff was super helpful and friendly. I would definitely stay here again. So cool to have a kitchenette in the room!

United StatesShower curtain too short and water covered the floor everytime. Not convenient for subway. .5 miles from subway that required transfers to get most places. The neighborhood was a little dicey. Had to ask a guy to move along to get into the front door. Front door did not close unless you pulled it shut. Found it open more than once.
Clean and modern, good ac, kitchen. Walking distance of movie theaters. Close to restraunts, small grocery stores.
