Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 StatesI do love to be colder when I sleep and the non air conditioning wasn’t my favorite, but the fans did help immensely. Overall great stay!
We stayed in a family room with two floors and the set up was perfect! We had a separate living space, great bathroom, just a quirky great place to stay! On top of that, they had our airport taxi early for us which is always appreciated

IndiaThe property is located very centrally with easy access to trams that are connected well to the main station and popular tourist sites. Though centrally located and on the main road it’s still a very quiet area. They had also sent very precise directions to us to reach the hotel on arrival from the airport. It’s definitely value for money. The front desk lady was very helpful and guided us whenever required with a smile.

GermanyFor families with baby i do not recommend this hotel. Elevator is super small nothing fits if you have a stroller. From the parking to the hotel reception there are only stairs so if you come with heavy luggage you will have a problem to carry. The room was given to us was smelling food all the time because of the restaurant down there. There is no klima installed with 40 degree room temperature .. I will definitely not stay here again with my next stay.

RomaniaAcceptable breakfast with varied food, coffee and juices. The staff at the reception is very kind. Hotel located relatively close to the main attractions in the area. Safe area, even if red lights predominate on the street behind the hotel. A big plus for the free ticket for public transport that you get at registration. The tram station is located near the hotel. In my reserved suite (ground floor and first floor) we had a big bath with shower plus a jacuzzi tub. The building consists of a hotel and a restaurant where you can eat well. I recommend this hotel!

BelgiumWe paid for CHF 25 parking per day but a burglar came into our car and stole our car papers and used clothes. My husband forgot to lock our car though but because this is a "private parking" we are expecting it to be safe. The hotel let the door of the garage open and because of this, we spent half day at the police station. The pillow are not comfortable and the room size is too small. If you are travelling during summer, think twice as they only provide you with a very small fan. It is not enough to cover the whole room.
The staff who assisted us is very helpful. The location is perfect, close to the tram station. There are lots of restaurants around the neighborhood.

The room and the bathroom were spacious. It wasn’t cold at all although it was very cold outside. It was very modern and the beds were very comfortable to sleep. The location is close to several tram stops which made things convenient. We were given daily tickets for city trips.
