Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

The pillows were not good, and the towels were worn out, not fluffy anymore, hurting my skin. The room was too dated, the furniture was scratched, mismatched, and ugly, and the bathroom fan (if any) wasn't working. Not many toiletries for a Mariott. I found it expensive for the shortcomings, and I sure expected more.
I loved the bed; the mattress was firm and comfy, and the room was very clean. The breakfast buffet was exactly what we needed; the eggs were great. The staff was very friendly, and the front desk lady found me as a Mariott member and added to the reservation even before I asked. We would stay again (we visited the bar to watch games in the past, and it was always a pleasant experience).

The in room coffee and tea service was lacking.
The location was perfect for my two jobs . But because we didn’t have time to dine in the restaurant either in the evening or morning, we missed out on the charm of the place.

The fact of a fee for every day maid was surprising… and unwelcomed. The cost of full breakfast service was cost prohibitive in view of the room rate. The bathtub and sink drained very slowly… I’ll let front desk know as we checked out.

I paid for my stay in full on Booking.com prior to our arrival. A few days after we checked out, my credit card was charged for an extra person fee (when we didn’t have more than the four people I booked for) and another fee which could not be explained. These charges were eventually refunded however, I still took a loss as the exchange rate on my credit card was higher when they charged vs when the charges were refunded. Another family that booked also noticed charges after they checked out as well. Check your statement as this could happen to you.
Stayed at this hotel for 4 nights. Hot breakfast was included with our package and they had a good selection to choose from. The restaurant staff were all very kind and friendly. Pool, hot tub and gym were also available which was nice. All in all it was great until after we checked out.
