How guest reviews work
Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done 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 of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Some street noise, inevitable in Manhattan, though not a major problem for us. Only one armchair in room; comfortable seating for two would be an improvement.
Clean and comfortable room and bed. Reasonable size and adequate clothes storage. Good bathroom. On floor 3, so able to use stairs if lifts were slow. Friendly and helpful staff on reception desk. Location excellent, close to several subway stations.

The room was a bit small and dimly lit plus the room staff forgot to make up our room a couple of times.
Loved the location being in the center of town with so much shopping and restaurants/eateries. The hotel is well maintained and clean. The complimentary breakfast is a bonus. The front desk staff is welcoming and very helpful. The room staff did a great job. The room was very clean, smelled nice and had everything we needed plus it was very quiet in spite of being in such a busy area. We would definitely return for another stay.

I was not told in advance that a security deposit was required. I had not factored that into my budget. Guest SHOULD BE NOTIFIED IN ADVANCE.
Breakfast options were great. The staff was visible and helpful keeping tables clean and refilling coffee and food trays.

The USD50 daily deposit wasn’t explicitly stated at the point of booking so it was an unexpected expense at checkin albeit it is refundable.
Great location and good buffet breakfast. The bagels with raisins were great. Very close to the Empire State Building and Penn Station.

Rooms could be alittle more bigger an beds softer. The hallways are to small you feel cramped and the breakfast was nice other than being down 1 waffle maker an too crowded that we went out to grab breakfast.
Nice lobby and good customer service at front desk. The room was nice.

Noise! But I think in general New York gets a lot noisier from the last time I visited in 2018, so not the hotel's fault. As the location is very central, the noise level is quite high. Prepare an earplug if you are sensitive to sound. You can also hear everything in the hallway when you are in your room.
Location is very central. Steps from the 34 St Harold Square subway stop and a walking distance to the 34 St Penn Station stop which both are big stations so you basically can travel anywhere in New York by subway easily. The room is clean, newly-renovated and non-carpet which I like. Free breakfast is a bonus and it's not shabby at all. There's a free coffee station that is available 24/7.

The elevator and hallways are very tiny and the set up for breakfast is not laid out very well
Property is in a very convenient location close to subways and within walking distance of several areas. The breakfast was a rotating selection that gave you plenty of options. We stayed on the 19th floor and with earplugs we heard zero outside noise. There is a slight wait for elevators but it wasn’t ever too long. The staff were all very helpful and pleasant to deal with. They were able to satisfy all of our requests for stuff we forgot.
