Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomIt took them over 25 minutes to find out if a room was ready when I checked in.
I stay at the Pod frequently during the year as it is near family. The rates have climbed now as we are getting into the prime visitor season so of course I don't like to pay such more now for a room which is more basic but clean and quiet and centrally located.

United KingdomThe shower/toilet setup - it has translucent glass so you really get no privacy if you're sharing the room with someone else. I got some laundry done - they outsourced it to another company and it was very expensive. They could improve the rooms by installing some storage racks on the walls - there's minimal floor space and we had 2 suitcases and 2 backpacks and they took up most of the room
The hotel was affordable - for New York at least. The room was pretty small, but it was comfortable, well equipped and had everything we needed. The hotel is in a good location, close to the metro and a short walk to several good cafes and restaurants. If you're just looking for a place to sleep while you explore New York in the day, it's pretty much perfect.

NetherlandsPillows are very bad, which is a shame since the bed is good for the value. Also very expensive for what it is but NYC prices have gone up quite a lot.
Nice location, in a dynamic neighbourhood with the subway quite close to the hotel. Rooms are small but functional, and the comfort is ok.

United States of AmericaThat the rooftop bar is not yet open (still under construction - this was a bit deceiving from the pictures online. Weather was great and I would have loved to have enjoyed a cocktail there. That was the only reason for down grade to a score of 8.
It was comfortable for the small space. I liked the location, just a few blocks to the subway and a few blocks to Domino Sugar park. Very walkable area. Felt safe.

United KingdomNothing really! The size of room and toilet / shower combo takes a little while to get used to, but the near design of the room means there’s ample space to tuck cases etc
The location! Right in the heart of Williamsburg with its incredible restaurants, bars and music scene. The hotel room itself, though compact, was such a comfortable space with a really comfy bed and incredible view from the window. Considering how much cheaper it was than other hotels in the area we couldn’t believe our luck!

FranceThe rooms could have benefitted from an extra square meter for a separated shower/toilet. But it’s super functional and everything is well thought through. Worth it for the price and central location.
The Pod is a perfect hotel for a week away. Though the rooms are small (double room), the bed was super comfortable and the room quiet. We loved the location, super easy to get anywhere (+ the ferry). The staff was helpful. There was an amazing offer of restaurant and coffees in the surrounding area. We would come here again !

United KingdomThe most perfect location, especially if you’re not looking to stay in Manhattan. The hotel is so well situated and has plenty of great bars, restaurants and shops within walking distance. Great links to the city with several subway stations also within walking distance. The staff are friendly and helpful and there is always someone on front desk. Will definitely be back again next time we’re in NYC!!
