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 StatesBed was a bit worn. Always fell into the center of it when sleeping. The lamp shades were stained. The shower head had hard water stains on them so I cleaned them myself. Could not access calling the down button on one side of elevator on fifth floor. And parking was not explained upon arrival, and when I corrected my stay with the QR Code, I was charged parking twice.
Answer questions quickly. Staff accommodate my wishes for my room.

United StatesThe hotel has wonderful potential. It looks high-end. It feels beautiful. The room was not very clean for what I paid. There were items left from the previous person who stayed, and there were things under the bed that were missed, as well. It felt like only a quick pick-up was done instead of a good clean. The shower body wash was empty. The shower head was amazing, but it was a wand. It only worked as a wand, as the stand was broken, so it wouldn't stay up to be able to use as a stand-up shower.
The building is aesthetically pleasing and welcoming. The shower head.

United StatesMy room had the fridge unplugged when I checked in and water had leaked and saturated into the carpet. I called the front desk and they gave me towels, but didn't offer a different room. Didn't have enough blankets. The couch pull out bed is VERY uncomfortable as you can feel the springs through the mattress. The fitness center had 2 of 3 elliptical machines that needed maintenance. The cable machine had a plastic bag covering the computer monitor from rain and there was a bucket right under it full of rain water (Didn't look good). They need to purchase a straight bar for that cable machine so we can perform bicep curls and tricep push downs. Those bars aren't expensive and as much as people want to workout these days, that would be a great purchase. I would also recommend purchasing other attachments for the cable machine. I booked a room there because it had a fitness center.
The junior suite was huge! I had 2 sinks! My room was right next to the ice machine! The dinner at Damon's inside the hotel was great! I ordered chicken and a side salad with mashed potatoes and steamed veggies!

United StatesThe elevators are a huge problem! Waiting in line for one for 35 minutes was absolutely unacceptable. That many rooms and levels you need to add at least 1-2 more. Also paying for parking was absurd. Your location isn’t downtown, that’s not even a charge that should be there

Very clean and inviting as always! The front desk clerk was awesome!
