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...).

United States of AmericaThe room was just okay. Very basic. I think its fine if you are using it just for sleeping and spending most of the day outside. My two main complains - 1. There is no restaurant in the hotel. For coffee and breakfast we had to drive 10 min to a nearby starbucks. 2. The rooms are not cleaned everyday. Room cleaning service is only offered after 4/5 nights. We stayed for two nights and were running out of fresh towels. Would have been difficult if we had stayed for even an additional night.
Great location if you are visiting Legoland. The hotel gives you access to the back entrance of legoland which with some planning helps cover major rides before the crowd from the general entrance makes its way. The area has some nice resorts. The lobby and common area was clean and very well maintained. The room has microwave, cups and basic silverware which was very helpful.

United KingdomBed was a little hard. But that's personal taste.
Smart relatively new hotel. Excellent location for my business. Room was a studio but big clean and airy. Really good value for money as hotels in Carlsbad expensive in the summer. Only stayed one night so they refunded me for the second one without question. Hallway and room lighting was on PIR so no fumbling for lights in a strange room in the middle of the night. Nice idea. Will definitely stay here next time I'm in the area.

United States of AmericaAccommodations for early check in and late check out were not met. Some of the room amenities were not working (e.g. ironing board broken and one of the stove top burners broken). For the price you pay, would expect the villas to be better equipped.
Location was clean and staff was friendly. The rooms were a good size and our location gave us access to the 4th of July fireworks from Legoland. Front row seats from our villa patio! The pools were busy but I’d you get there early enough, you can reserve a nice spot. Poolside service was great!

United States of AmericaDO NOT BOOK this hotel, at least not through Booking.com -- We were traveling as a group of 5 moms & 5 small kids, and requested 3 adjacent rooms when booking. I also called the hotel after booking to make sure they saw the request for adjacent rooms. When we arrived, they had booked us in rooms in entirely different "neighborhoods" that required a shuttle to get between (or a long-ish walk -- part of which was along a busy road -- w/ little kids in tow). The staff basically just said "oh yeah next time book directly with the hotel so you can pick out your rooms; we don't do that for 3rd party sites." We would have never stayed at this hotel if we had known we'd be super far apart -- it was a HUGE bummer and added a lot of unnecessary logistics to the trip (shleping small kids across the property just so we could hang out as a group).
The main part of the hotel ("The Cove") is directly next to Legoland -- very convenient for visiting the park.

IrelandThe front desk advised me that it cost $30 A NIGHT to park at the hotel which seems unbelievable. It’s a resort that is off street and there is literally a parking spot for each room. I questioned this and the clerk confirmed. Anyhow I later found my booking on booking .com where I had already paid the parking free in the booking. How did the hotel not already know this if they took the booking. I went straight down at checkout and informed the new clerk that I wanted the account creditors. Which he did straight away. Check out at this hotel is 10am, which seem ludicrous.
This hotel is about 4 miles out of Carlsbad, so don’t book it to be local to the amenities without having to drive. It was clean and kept well but that was about it.

CanadaThis wasn’t a big deal for us, but the hotel is not walking distance to a beach.
This resort was incredibly beautiful. Lush lawns and palm trees…the property is huge, but they have a convenient shuttle service that brings you around when needed. There are multiple pools and hot tubs as well as splash pads and playgrounds for the kids. There is a pool with a large slide, but that wasn’t open due to weather. Our family of 6 was upgraded by the staff to the 3bedroom suite which was so large and spacious. The room was fully equipped and extremely comfortable. Room service was quick and responsive. Lots of eating options on and off the resort.

United States of AmericaMy room was driving distance from the checkin/lobby which also meant any amenities where literally half a mile away. Elevator wasn’t working at all during entire stay, water was shut off for maintenance. Extra fees for parking and other things added. Constant text reminders about noise restrictions are unnecessary.
The only positive to this stay was how big the room was.

United States of AmericaWe had a studio room, which was nice, but felt small. For a couple this would be perfect. Tried for a two bedroom, but none were available. The bathroom was a bit small, but still nice.
This property is gorgeous. It’s has so many activities for children of all ages in the pool area. The kids played on the water slide for hours. Then they played ping pong, billiards, foos ball, and patio sized connect four. In the evenings we met families by the fire pits and made s’more. The pool snack bar is reasonably priced. This property provides a trail leading to a private entrance to Legoland. There is also a nice hiking trail nearby, and of course, there If your room is further away from the pool area, there is a golf cart shuttle. Everything about this place has been thought through perfectly. The sunsets are beautiful and very visible from the pool area. Beach is very close by car.

United States of AmericaFirst off we booked through a 3rd party service booking .com and paid 3days before our stay. When my boyfriend and I went to check in (check in starts at 4pm) at 5:30 pm I was told that the room was not clean. So we were offered another room at the same price. Unfortunately the front desk made a mistake by not using our electronic credit card that we had through booking.con and charged us again. So now at this point I had paid for one room twice! Furthermore, starting at 6am in the morning on Sunday the noise of crying babies and violent footsteps from above kept us both awake the rest of the morning. You would think after all of these inconveniences they would grant us at late check out seeing as how 10am is very early, but nope! Very unsatisfied with this property and my entire stay :(
I liked the cleanliness of the property

Customer service excellent and staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Brandon at front desk and both women at the concierge were fantastic! The location was close to Carlsbad village for restaurants and bars/nightlife. The pool area was clean and children friendly for families. But also as a single traveler it was not obnoxiously crowded with children screaming. There were 2 separate pool areas by The Cove. Small bar with quick food service was nice.
