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 StatesNot a complaint, but an observation: many of the rooms are not accessible (stairs to get to room), so make sure you ask for that if you need an accessible room and are booking. Additionally, the bathtub/shower is very narrow and sloped like a V shape; the bottom of the tub is also raised above the floor by about 6-8", so it's disconcerting perception wise when you are stepping in and out. I have no disabilities, but it was tricky getting in and out of the tub (luckily there is a handlebar). I can see a senior or someone with a disability having a difficult time or even slipping easily, so be aware.
Breakfast was nice as was the complimentary pisco sour. The room was nice and clean and warm.

United KingdomThe check-in was slow. We arrived at 2:30 pm and were told check-in was at 3 pm, so we had to wait, which was fine and understandable, but then it took us an hour to check in with only 3 couples in front of us. Seemed like it wasn't the smoothest or most efficient process and something they should improve upon. We didn't have anything else we needed to do so it didn't matter too much. Otherwise a great stay for what we needed.
The room was great. Secured parking and perfect for the night.

ItalyThe hotel was clean and nice, breakfast Is good and varied. However I tried to ask for information several days before our arrival, wrote a second time, but no one answered. Moreover we asked to arrange for a taxi early morning, but apparently they forgot. We were lucky a taxi was close so we just had to wait 10 minutes or so.

This hotel is a throwback to the 1970’s - waiters in waistcoats, lots of cocktail bottles behind the bar, “vintage “ brown decor BUT brilliant location if you need a stop over for the airport, staff are really helpful, the best breakfast we had in Chile, all at a low price- so I can forgive the “charm”

CanadaNot many restaurants in the area. The hotel has one, but we didn’t try it. Finding our way out from the hotel in the morning (pre-dawn) to the airport ended up going down the wrong way on a one way street and facing an oncoming bus. Not the hotel’s fault, but take care in leaving.
Just stayed the night on our way to the airport. It was a good comfortable place to stay.

New ZealandThe hotel refused to allow check-in even 30 minutes before their scheduled time of 3:00 PM, which seemed quite unusual to me. I've traveled extensively around the world, but I've never encountered such strict policies elsewhere.
The hotel is very conveniently located near the airport, which was a big plus. The room was decent and met basic expectations. Overall, it was an okay stay.

United StatesAs others have said, the room furniture (while functional) is dated and worn. It's perfect for a one- or two-night stay or to catch an early flight from the airport, but not to stay for a long while.
Proximity to the airport (literally down the road 2-3 km, great if you have an early flight), facilities (the gym and pool look very nice), and onsite restaurant (which serves a nice breakfast).
