Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 pretty basic, and the exterior of the motel isn't terribly attractive, but we kind of expected that at this price point. One suggestion - I think they just renovated the wing we stayed in, but when the beds are replaced again at some stage, beds without the metal surround underneath would be a better option. Every time you walk up to the bed and your foot even touches that metal surround, it sounds like you're being voted off the Gong Show. It's loud! We could even hear it from the neighboring rooms.
The guy at the front desk was really nice and very helpful. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. We liked that there was no carpet in the room. The noise wasn't too bad and with the white noise app on our phone, it wasn't an issue. The location is great!

United States of AmericaThe TV in room 108 needs to be replaced (picture is too dark); The parking lot stops (white) are not spaced far enough apart (or evenly) enough to allow a power wheelchair to get to the room. The shower head is partially blocked and the hot water (for shower) and water pressure needs to be increased.

United States of AmericaSomewhat lacking in amenities - no refrigerator or microwave. Our room needed some maintenance - broken toilet seat, broken window (could not open or close it), TV remote did not work. The metal bed box frame literally had a screw (or several) loose so that any move during the night caused a metal clang / rattle loud enough to awaken us. Not a restful night.
Good location just a few blocks from State Street restaurants. Nice thick towels. Upgraded bathroom and floors.

BrazilIt would've been better to have a fridge and a microwave at the room, but it was ok.
The room was very clean and spacious. The location was excelent, very close to restaurants and stores. The bathroom was nice and clean too. There's a coffee machine at the room, and although it didn't have a fridge and a microwave, we were allowed to use the ones at the lobby. We just stayed one night, but we liked the in very much.

The hotel was a stopover for our road trip. We just slept there and were gone through the day. Suited our purpose. Convenient, clean. Was surprised how small the room were, but it's an older hotel. The price was right.
