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.).

Small bed for two people. It was hard to check in. Some kind of a glitch happened for everyone staying there, and we all had a hard time getting into the main space.

Verified reviewInteresting concept of having no staff onsite, and digital check in. Check in accompanied without a hitch.
Nothing really. Property was centrally located, well maintained. Probably could work a deal with local parking lots/garages for discounted rates.

Verified reviewHow nice the room was and very clean. It had a fridge and over and even dishes to use and a nice fan to use too. And you could watch Netflix.
The view from my room was a brick wall. But I did know it was a corner room. I could hear the music from the bar. But that was ok as a did know before checkin. Just wanted to mention that for later guest

Verified reviewWell stocked apartment, good price.
They send you an email before your stay warning you that some rooms face a party street and it will be loud. Ok, I've traveled a lot, I've had my share of loud and busy streets, how bad could it be? Well, our room was one that literally overlook a bar (the patrons are maybe 20 feet away) that blast music until 2am or later. Not some gentle background music or reasonable volume band, but some rattle-your-bones amplified extravaganza pumping dance music at the loudest volume possible. There is no way any reasonable person can sleep, even with the best earplugs. If you're a party-goer who doesn't hit the bed until last call, then this is the place for you! But if you are with a family or enjoy going to bed before 2-3am, find another place.

Verified reviewCheck in system is onerous. If you need assistance you have to email during business hours. Entrance code was an issue for many guests [no one onsite]. If you are in an _04 suite on the weekend, be prepared for a noisy evening [till 2:00 AM] as the room overlooks the terrace of a pub. A/C is poorly thought out - cool where the sofa is, warm where the sleeping area is.

Verified reviewLocation was excellent. Walking distance to everything. Advertised as potentially noisy, but we found it to be very quiet (and we live in a quiet location, not a noisy city). Good security. Very comfy bed. Clean and spacious. All amenities. Great communication. Laundry. We had a very comfortable stay and were very pleased with this hotel.

Verified reviewThe location is good and a direct walk up from where the airport bus drops you off. Clean and well equipped.
The luggage storage area I found didn’t work out as when I put in the code the door wouldn’t open. They have a number to call but I didn’t have any network access as I had been unable to purchase a SIM card at the airport. A direct phone in the lobby would be handier. Also there are blinds on the window but impossible to reach. There is a unit in front of the window. The other blind was higher than the one in the photo. A pole with a hook would work. The room was overlooked so lacked privacy.
Hello, Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We’re sorry to hear about the issue you encountered with the luggage room door. If a code did not transmit correctly the first time a guest checks in, they can quickly follow the information posted on the door and re-transmit the code from the checkin system. The luggage room door code can be re-transmitted from the check-in system by entering your confirmation number in the lobby, kiosk or the online check-in page in our website through your phone., then click “Retransmit Code”. A pole with a hook is provided in each suite that has tall windows. It’s usually leaning against the brick wall near the window, so it can be easy to miss it.
