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 StatesOn most settings the shower makes a terrible sound. If the bathroom lights are on for more an a few minutes they also make an annoying sound. The only ice machine I could find was on the 4th floor, which normally isn’t bad. But when you are literally WAITING 15 MINUTES for an elevator it’s a huge pain. The elevators are a tight fit and the literally take forever. When checking out it took over 20 minutes! Also one of the tvs didn’t work at all.
Great location. Very helpful staff! Room are very clean. Lots of towels. Bathroom are well stocked with body soap and shampoo. The ac is amazing after a hot day!

United KingdomThe corridors stank of weed, the photos of the rooms are nothing like the room in real life. Everything In the room was old and dated, paint flaking off walls The air conditioning sounded like a plane taking off, so had to turn it off at night. The shower handle fell to bits when you touched it. The tv didn’t work.
It’s location. The beds were actually comfy and sheets clean.

United KingdomThere was no safe in the room for our valuables. When we raised this concern, we were simply told, “Our cleaning staff are trustworthy.” We weren’t blaming anyone—we just wanted to feel secure. After insisting, they called the person in charge, who listened to us, agreed with our concerns, and offered to place a box in the room. But it had no lock or security, so we understandably refused. We then asked to check out early and were told we would be refunded for the nights we didn’t stay. Guess what? The hotel later told Booking.com that there was no such reservation. They took our money and left us incredibly disappointed. On top of that, they even got for nearly $50 just to check in a few hours early. Ironically, we later found much better and more luxurious hotels in the same area for the same price. We rebooked through Booking.com and were finally able to enjoy our stay elsewhere. But this property was a huge disappointment. My biggest expectation was room security, but on top of that, the room wasn’t even properly clean
Just the location is very central.

United StatesOne of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. The room was not clean when I arrived — dust on surfaces and stains on the floor. The curtains were broken, which made it hard to get any privacy or block out light. The air conditioning was blasting freezing cold air all night with no way to properly control the temperature, making it nearly impossible to sleep. To make things worse, housekeeping knocked on my door at 8 AM — twice! Even after I shouted “No housekeeping,” she kept knocking. I felt harassed and completely disrespected. Overall, I had the worst time staying here. I do not recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable or relaxing stay.
The location is the only good about this hotel.

United StatesLet’s start from the top. During check-in, we were helped by a woman with short hair and very large glasses. She was extremely rude and sounded very unhappy to be there. I could tell that we were not about to have a good time. The day we arrived they were servicing one of the elevators, leaving only one elevator really working. There was one more, but that one also barely worked. Throughout the rest of the trip elevators would take anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes to arrive so we ended up using the stairs most of the time luckily we were on the fourth floor. Our room was clean, but the mattress had a distinct smell and so did the room itself. Not to mention the lack of lighting, throughout the room. The walls were covered in missing patches of paint And they had taken off the thermostat which controlled the AC unit. Leaving us stuck with an extremely cold room the entire trip. The room also lacked in power outlets. We had to charge our phones on the desk, which was very far away from where we slept. The bathroom was the most disappointing we were given a room that did not have a shower divider meaning that when you walked into the room, there was just a toilet a sink and a hose to shower under nothing to keep the water from going all over the bathroom on top of that the hose was angled at a very very low position which meant that you had to take it off the hook and shower by hand. The toilet was so close to the sink that my arm would touch it every time I sat down. I bumped my elbow multiple times on the sink, trying to wipe myself very uncomfortable and very poorly designed. I had to ask for multiple towels so that I could put them all over the floor before I showered. And once again during checkout, the unhappy receptionist was very unprofessional and unkind. The only reason this hotel is still open is because of its amazing location.
The only part of this property that was likable was its proximity to Times Square.

United Statesthe air conditioning wasn't adjustable and not strong enough for the room. they supplied a fan, which was just ok but not great. The room was small and had no desk to sit at. The staff kept pestering me about being out by 11am and not 12pm for late checkout, or I would be charged. And then two of the cleaning staff got into a loud dispute in the corridor. one of the elevators didn't work and I heard the alarm being rung from the second elevator and decided to take the stairs. poor wifi reception. phone wasn;t plugged in. just messy.
easy check in and check out. central location.
