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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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):
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.
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.).

GreeceI wish pool and beach stayed open until sundown. I wish coffee in the room was better quality. I hated the carpet in room, it always is a bearer of dirt and bacteria… Why would you need a carpet in such a climate? I also did not like much the bathtub and shower combination, very difficult to keep clean.
The location was excellent for someone who needs peace and quiet in an upscale neighbourhood away from the tourist areas. The staff was excellent, very professional. The building is very old but has been successfully renovated in full compliance with its initial character so as to give off old school, retro Miami vibes. Provided that you go with that look and do not look for something ultra modern. Bed, towels excellent quality that one does not find in more expensive resorts. Nice view even from my room that faced Collins and the bay, I enjoyed the balcony a lot every night.

GermanyIt was too hot in Miami :). We had room in 1st flloor and seaview was limited, so try to ask bit higher floors.
Location really next to beach was amazing. You have to pay about car parking, but that also near to entrance, so that is great. Room was really sparkling clean and Concierce Mike make us feel confortable. Hotel have great beach and huge pool. ps. stuff also delivered micro-wave to our rooms, so we were able to have some own snacks food (instead to eat all the time heavy fast food).

United StatesWould have appreciated a room on a higher floor. We were on the first floor, so even the second floor would have given us a better view of the ocean. So, I did not ask. Just an after thought. Frequently in town, would be a frequent customer otherwise... it is the little things that make a hotel excellent...

United StatesWe paid extra for a balcony and were very disappointed with the location of the room because our balcony was too close to the construction going on every day all day at the building right next door to our balcony. Staff should not give guests rooms near construction. I ate most of my meals at the hotel and the dinner meals took so long to serve. I was usually the only one at dinner so was surprised it took such a long time to get my meals served. My last night there last Thursday, there was a African man who waited on me and he never checked on me once to see if I needed anything once he served me. I had to get up to find him when I needed anything.
We purposely travel during the slower season and I liked that the hotel was quiet. I also liked hotel being very close to the beach. The breakfast's and dinner meals were excellent. Melania was our waitress for our breakfast's and she was awesome and also for Sunday dinner. She gave us ideas for shopping and where to view the sunsets. She deserves a raise. We arrived late on Sunday and she was very gracious with feeding us before they closed for dinner.

United StatesI ordered room service. A turkey club and Diet Coke cost almost $70. I should have asked the price for room service first, or better yet they should tell you.
We have been coming here for years. It’s more a resort than a hotel. The rooms are a good size, clean and comfortable. In todays world the cleaning service seems to now be “ service as needed”. That can prove to be annoying but doable. It’s close to stores and restaurants, but more importantly it has a large pool and is on the beach.

United StatesWe had reserved an oceanfront king room and got a room with 2 queen beds. Also, when they finally told us our room was ready, we went to the room only to find housekeeping still cleaning. They told us it would be 15 minutes. I went to the front desk to inform them and they apologized and said they would call us as soon as it was finished. We waited by the pool for another 45 minutes and I finally went back to the front desk as it was close to 4:30 now. They said they were just going to call us to let us know we could go to our room.
Breakfast was good and it was wonderful sitting outside and looking at the ocean!

This hotel was a pleasant surprise. From the moment we checked in we felt welcome. Our room was very bright and spacious. We had a balcony with a sweeping view of the Miami skyline. The swimming pool area was very impressive. The very big pool has a deep end of 9 feet. The area is very spacious with lots of sun loungers. There is direct access to a lovely stretch of beach.
