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.).

A new and cozy hotel in Bowery with everything you need. The location is good and safe, ccording to my friends’ NYC.

United StatesThe walls are a little thin and the HVAC fan wasn't working, but those are minor complaints!
Great location in the lower east side! I was impressed with the layout of the rooms, which while small, were cleverly designed. The lounge area was great to work from, and the staff were all wonderful.

The fact that I could do anything from the app and/or the tablet in the room. That sleep mode was truly the best, knocked us out so quick.

United KingdomWe knew the room was going to be small as we had seen reviews, but although very well designed not being able to access both sides of the double bed was a bit of a problem for us.
Really clean and buzzy great breakfast which was excellent value and friendly staff. Very modern and really well thought out Design. Lovely roof bar which we enjoyed on both evenings. Had inside and outside locations.

United StatesIf you get this room size, both people cannot have a carryon luggage suitcase and be able to have it open/accessible...which would be a pain. I think the one way they could potentially improve upon this is to add a large shelf above the bench that is low enough to reach your belongings but high enough to not impede someone putting their luggage on the bench...also it would have to be large enough to hold an open carry on luggage. I was solo so not an issue for me.
Soft close doors meant I didn't hear anyone coming in and out of their rooms!!! Quiet. Adjustable lighting at mirror was nice., full length mirror. Nice towels and bedding, great view. Automatic curtains and blackout curtains. Easy connection to TV to cast music/media. Appreciated the hooks near the entrance to hang purses/bags. Enjoyed the shower and it was big enough even w the small space -very efficient design. The community space on lower level was nice and the rooftop had great views.

The “living room” and bar area were great. You can get what you need at all hours or do work, hang out. The hotel overall was very clean and inviting and the staff were always so helpful

United StatesMaybe a room higher up, but even that would be a small adjustment as our view from the 7th floor was still very good.
The first impression is that the room is too small for two people, but once you get situated, you realize that the space is designed very well and that you have everything you need. The bed was excellent, as was the shower, and the blinds and small fridge as well as the coffee at the common area all make for an enjoyable stay.
