Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 AmericaA bit pricy for a shared space, but that is Brooklyn.
The location is great. Near to the subway, buses, and most places are 15 mins away by car. There are all types of businesses including banks, a Home Goods, Target, fast food restaurants within 5 mins walking distance. For a place in Brooklyn it was extremely quiet and I had a wonderful night sleep. Crystal was a great host, very friendly, welcoming accommodating and knowledgeable. Crsytal Chateau is beautiful, homely, cozy, well maintained and extremely clean place.

Czech RepublicWe had big trouble at arrival - still not sure if this was fault of booking.com or the hotel. We booked 10 days prior our stay,paid and immediatelly recived info, that hotel is looking forward for our stay (but the hotel did not know about it, it was automatically generated). When we arrived, no one was expecting us, no one took the phone, we were left alone at night on the street. After 20 minutes, owner appered at the door and yelled at us that booking.com charged us too chep, like if it was our fault. They told us to pay 100USD more (for 3 days) or we will have nowhere to sleep (it was already 9pm), they were very upleasnt to us, behaving like we did something bad to them. At the end, we decied to pay this, because altogether, it was still good price for New York and it was too late evening. Again - we still dont now, maybe it was fault of booking.com, but the encounter was very unpleasant. They told us they did not even expected us and we were lucky that one room is free. So far the worst booking experience we had (but so far we traveled only across the Europe). We do not recomend to book this hotel via booking.com. Either booking.com works really bad in us, or this hotel does not know how to work with booking.com. We are still trying to put formal complain to booking.com, but little success. Important to note- rest of the stay was fine.
Clean and comfortable.

United KingdomThe towels provided could have been more generous- we had one large and one medium size towel for two people. A waste/trash bin could have been provided in our room.
The location about 8 minutes walk to a subway station with a 40 min journey to Times Square and the cost, which was low by the standards of New York City. The owner was friendly.

United States of AmericaSimple things such as a blanket on the bed and towels. I had to ask for (and getting them was not easy, although they finally did). But was left with two towels not much larger than a dish rag (which there were none of those either). Spent first night with no blanket. Just a top sheet. Luckily I found some sort of light duvet cover in a cabinet which was paper thin, but better than just a top sheet. It all worked out in the end.
It was clean and quiet and peaceful. Safe neighborhood. Nice enough place to stay for two nights, well priced for Brooklyn in September. Bring your own towels!

NetherlandsDespite indicating my arrival time weeks beforehand, I had to wait over an hour for the owner to arrive and let me in my room. It was incredibly hot in the whole house, the AC did not do much besides loud noise, the bed was covered in plastic sheets, it was dirty and there were several power outlets that seemed like a safety hazard, the locks did not seem to be working well, I did not feel safe. I do not understand where the good reviews are coming from!
The lady who owns the house was nice, it is close to public transportation.

United States of AmericaTHIS PLACE WAS A BOARDING HOUSE. NOT AN AIR B&B (RENT-A-ROOM) WHICH IS ALL YOU GET. NO EXPECTATION OF FREEDOM OR PRIVACY TO UTILIZE THE SPACE FOR YOUR OWN COMFORT. I WAS NOT GOING TO PAY THAT MUCH MONEY FOR A PLACE THAT I HAD TO SHARE A BATHROOM AND KITCHEN WITH TOTAL STRANGERS.
