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 States of AmericaThe room was freezing and the heat didn’t work. I turned on the heat specifically and turned it up to 72 but it just blew out cold air. The comforter also had holes in it. Almost everything was unplugged, save the TV and one lamp, and we couldn’t reach the outlets to plug other lamps in, so that was weird. The restaurant in the hotel was closed and it would have been nice to have been made aware of this at the time of booking, even at check in would have sufficed. Also very expensive for what you get.
It was very close to Roadrunner, so it’s a great location if you’re going there. The staff was very nice as well.

United States of AmericaThe breakfast was cold, there was cereal with no milk, no juice when I asked the front desk for juice it seemed like they didn't know about the breakfast situation. There was no one around to ask in the breakfast area.. if you're going to offer breakfast and you can't staff, maybe just offer bagels and coffee and juice... Wouldn't recommend the food here
It was adorable and the rooms were very comfortable

Stylish and fresh decor. Easy parking adjacent to a nice park along the river. Bar area was comfortable and welcoming. Interesting "sous vide"-based restaurant was a good value.

TurkeyWe couldn’t increase the room temperature. The room was cold; after 11 hours flight we were so tired so couldn’t inform the reception other than that everything was great. And i am sure if we talked to them, they could come up with a solution.
The breakfast was amazing. It was our first stay in us and the first breakfast and it was good. The stuff was so nice.

NetherlandsRooms are very noisy and not well isolated from outside. Corridors are narrow and therefore noisy as well since doors tend to shut even when handled with care. Windows are not sealed. Furniture is old and sometimes dirty (e.g. couches fabric). Do not select if you have a light sleep.
Good restaurant and pub available all day is convenient. The staff was very kind in addressing all my questions and always found a solution for issues that arose over my 4 night stay.

CyprusContradicting myself from the comments in the plus section. The complimentary breakfast was very limited. The first few days it arrived cold but was addressed. We didn’t have US phone so had to wait for help. Also for the drinks they had to have a physical card to link and I only had my Apple Pay.
We loved the decor and individuality. The concept of the food halls was fantastic and in time when they have ironed out the kinks (only been open a week and had the 100% occupancy for the Boston Marathon to content with) the location and ease of getting around was great.

SpainThe location is limited to having a car to move around. There was no coffee maker for complementary use inside de room. The heater made a lot of noise and had to turn it off during sleep even though it was cold. And as for the breakfast, I had some unconfirmed information overhearing some guests that the breakfast is currently "under development", being the first time they offer hot food. So I asume there’s still room for improvement, and eventually they'll end up with a proper buffet with more variety and quality. However, the most important thing is that the container-based serving method has to be eradicated ASAP. Apart from the unconfortableness and disgust about eating from a cardboard container with plastic cutlery, the amount of waste that we witnessed that was being generated every morning was just horrifying. Hope they can improve swiftly the conditions of the breakfast service with regular porcelain plates and bowls, glass cups and metal cutlery and the appropriate washing procedures to improve guests confort and dramatically reduce waste. I had a very polite response from the manager via Booking message addressing this issue when completing their corporate survey about our stay, but felt that it had to be published here too.
We arrived late at night and even though the receptionist was very polite and helpful. The safe wasn't working at the room we first got and in a matter of minutes we had been moved to a fresh one with no issues. Included parking.

United States of AmericaIn the first night, it was extremely cold, the heating system was weak, and we froze, and my husband got sick. Then we asked for additional heating, and it was much better afterward. The duvets covers were not duvets covers, but rather two sheets with a blanket in between - at night, the sheets slide off, leaving the blanket exposed. Our bodies came into contact with this blanket, which was likely touched by other people, as it's clear that the blanket is not washed after each visitor, which was a bit unpleasant. Regarding the breakfast staff: my husband and I were having breakfast, and it was 10:05 AM. I went to pour some tea since the tea is located outside the dining area. While I was pouring, a female staff member locked the door to the dining area, and I didn't know what to do. It's absolutely unpleasant when such things happen.
Extremely polite staff at the reception. Very pleasant, courteous, and professional people. Convenient location and free parking. Breakfasts are not varied, but overall, you can get enough, especially the waffles at the end of the stay were a pleasant surprise. Everything is clean.

United States of AmericaAn unexpected “activity fee” of $35 was charged upon arrival. This should be put in the room price so that guests know the true room rental costs before booking.
This fresh, boutique hotel has a welcoming and pleasant staff which cordially invite you to a refreshed and modern facility. It is located across from a great running area near ward 3 with Trader Joe’s and Starbucks only 3 blocks away. The rooms are nicely appointed and extremely clean.
