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.).

HungaryBreakfast is a bit poor, just a few things should be added and it would be perfect: at least one juice, ham, eggs. that's it, as everything is sweet.
Awesome location, historical street and surroundings. Hotel is old, but cute, clean and decent. Staff is friendly and helpful.

United StatesAs noted, some of the prior reviews were accurate about the partying at the back side of the building and the old-fashioned interiors, but I’m glad I wasn’t swayed by that. Breakfast was also limited, although as advertised. I poured myself some coffee and bought a sandwich at a nice deli down the street.
I love lower Manhattan, so the location was great. I read in prior comments about noise from the bars and such on the next street, but I wasn’t bothered by that. The desk attendant did move me to a front room (without my asking) when she saw I’d booked a room with 2 beds and I was traveling by myself. She mentioned the noise, which I didn’t think would’ve been a problem. The colonial style of the room was as others have noted a little dated, but it was really a charming room with huge windows on two sides and great light.

Czech RepublicThe aircon was rather loud but you cannot do without in summer so ear plugs during night are recommended.
The hotel is located right at Wall Street, few minutes walking distance from many attractions, shops, subway, the Ferry and more. The hotel has got a classic-style furnishing which has got it's charm. The breakfast is basic but all you need for a good start into the day - coffee, tea, bagels, butter, yoghurt, pastry and a machine for pancakes.

United KingdomNo tea or coffee in the room, available in the dining room, but a trek to go and get it. The front of the hotel is covered by scaffolding, so a little difficult to locate in the taxi.
Great room, super comfortable super king size bed, wonderful shower, the staff were very attentive. A beautifully kept building.

NorwayBeautiful place with a lovely lobby and conveniently located near everything. The accommodation was clean and tastefully decorated with classical items for those who appreciate such touches. The room was spacious enough for a family of four. It’s ideally situated for viewing the Statue of Liberty or taking the ferry, and is close to other tourist attractions. Public transport is easily accessible with bus stops nearby, and there are plenty of restaurants in the vicinity. The neighborhood is great for walking. The air conditioning was a lifesaver during the hot weather in the USA; it was soothing to return to a cool room with a quiet and efficient AC, unlike the previous hotel we had stayed. However we stayed here for 1 day as we had to head to Yale, therefore my observations may or not differ if we stayed longer.

MoldovaThe breakfast was extremely poor, it's not the level of a hotel for such the price. Also the look from my windows was to somebody's office which was 5 meters from my window, so I had to close the windows with the curtains. Also one of the managers pointed the route to the breakfast room with a knife - I don't like it at all.
the room was ok
