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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

There was no nightstand next to the bed, and there was an awkward smell coming from the bathroom. We had to close the bathroom door during the day, hoping that the full room is not going to smell like that by the evening. Also, the temperature control for the shower was almost impossible to handle, it was either scorching hot, or ice cold and took about 10 minutes to slowly get to to about a workable teperature.
The location was nice, it took a while to drive to the park, but it wasn't bad at all. The room was functional, it had most of the stuff that were expected, and the temperature was surprisingly good considering the day and night tempperature outside. Parking was also nice and close to the room.

It needed a lot of work. Kind of shabby. Pool was very dirty and not useable. If I had a lot of money I’d buy the place and clean it all up. It’s in a great location on the way to the Grand Canyon the area is so nice it is a shame its potential is not being met.
I loved the log furniture the location the bar and the restaurant. Food and drinks were great! Staff was very nice! Loved the rustic vibe!

Checkin took forever because an older man wasn't letting the younger girl do her job. Went to drop off keys at 7am - office closed, so we dropped keys in box. Not much in the way of service, but the hotel sorta runs itself I guess. We didn't have much choice for booking options given our camping/weather fiasco, but guests who do have options should consider a night in Williams instead - much cuter, a little cheaper, a little father away from Grand Canyon.
We planned to tent-camp at Grand Canyon, but it was snowing pretty hard. Luckily, this place had rooms for a reasonable price. Maybe 30-40 mins drive from Grand Canyon entrance - make sure you go early or late! Or watch the USNPS live cam of front entrance to see how many cars! The hotel was basic and nice. GREAT breakfast food truck across the street w/ good coffee (though expect to pay high price for high-end, made-to-order breakfast sandwiches).

The staff was nice and helpful. It suited our needs. It's not a super fancy place. It's older, and the building has a few cosmetic issues. It's a very reasonable price and only 30 min away from the Grand Canyon. It does what you need it to do, gives you a place to crash after a long day at the canyon. I would stay again.

Poor check in experience. There was a new person on the desk who couldn’t find our booking and told us he couldn’t do anything and we had to contact booking.com to sort. Incredibly frustrating after a long drive but luckily after a few minutes the supervisor came out and found our booking quickly. Showers are so low so anyone over 5 foot will struggle but we made it work.
Lovely rooms, great location for the Grand Canyon. Amazing taco truck next door.
