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...).

Perfect location for our visit to Universal, we could either get the shuttle to the parks or walk 10 mins direct no problem. The room was lovely and spacious and had a great view. the bar was busy both nights and a great spot for a well earned post Mario cocktail

United States of AmericaI would have liked to have some casual dining options nearby. We would have packed more snacks had we known.
It was a nice big room. Very clean and comfortable. The pool and hot tub were perfect after the long drive there, after a long day at Universal Studios and before the long drive home. The pool being open from 5:30AM till Midnight was great! And we really enjoyed grounds around the pool and seeing the koi and turtles swimming around.

United States of AmericaThe cost and prices of amenities. I do not understand why paying guests must also pay $45 per day to park. If we are in your hotel as guests, why can't we park our cars for free. The cost of the breakfast was also overwhelming for the taste. I can definitely do without the food and amenities price gouging.
I loved the location and proximity to Universal Studios. I also loved the pet friendly facility.

CanadaThe pool was quite good but the hot tub water looked dirty. It would have been nice to have a more direct route to walk to Universal. The check-in was terrible. Had to wait in line to check in; then when room was ready had to wait in line AGAIN to pick up the key. Would have liked the Cafe to be open for dinner.
The room was spacious and comfortable. It is close to Universal Studios. The Lobby Restaurant had a decent menu and was open good hours. Enjoyed breakfast in the Cafe

United States of AmericaIn the room there was a maid’s cleaning towel on the table as soon as you walk in. I was too tired to call and complain, and not surprise because the same thing happened 18 years ago when my husband and I came to stay at the hotel but the towel was on the bed. We called that time. And the gentleman seemed annoyed. That same trip we used the valet and a gas card was stolen. We told the front desk and they didn’t care. Since then I haven’t trust Valet. As a mother taking a trip with her daughters I had to stay close to hotel and park for safety reasons, otherwise I would have tried a different hotel.
The location was perfect for our trip to the park. The shuttle bus came every 15min but decide to just walk to the park but used the shuttle for the evening.
