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 AmericaParking spots should be assigned next to rooms. I see no reason why they shouldn't be. I would give this a 10/10 if it was.
Easy check in and check out. Not too far from areas with things to go do.

United States of AmericaThe room had some easily repairable cosmetic damage to the walls & tile, making it look a bit dingy. The vending machine is empty...not sure why it's still out if not in use. There are snacks located in the office, but the clerk had no cash for change. All concerns are easily fixed, & won't stop me from returning.
The location is wonderful! Just a couple blocks away from the beach trail & a 4min drive to the downtown area. The grounds are well kept, our cottage was very clean, & the windows were open when we arrived, leaving the space aired out & fresh. Loooooved the fireplace! So cozy...

United States of AmericaI would have preferred a ground floor room because I was traveling with my 92 year old father, husband and a dog, for me to have to climb the stairs at 68 years old and my husband was 70 years old, climbing these stairs with luggages and a dog was not good. I had to take him out for bathroom breaks and going up and down those stairs at our age. My 92 year old father had to take the ground floor level for his age.
It is very nice area and close to the beach. The hotel was a very cute cottages and clean. There were deer out front. A lot of good site seeing around the area and great restaurants. I would stay here again.

United States of AmericaThe one and only thing I did not like, or I should say, I would recommend they fix is the little couch in the living area was not very comfortable. Other than that it was amazing.
First time staying at this property was recommended by a close friend and I have to say I was very impressed. It was very well taken care of great location and the staff was excellent.

DenmarkIt was half price of other places and it was nice. Have stayed in a more expensive place in Pacific Grove and this was better. Do not expect a fancy hotel, but it was clean, had a terrasse, good bed, coffee machine, fridge, and shower. Worth every penny. Thank you.

The property is well located for a first night stay on the Pacific Highway route from San Francisco to Los Angeles. The cottages are close to the sea which allowed a pleasant walk.

United States of AmericaParking wasn't assigned, and the closest spots were taken (or were designated for electric recharge, but noticed cars parked there, and I would have too but my car isn't electric so honored that).
I didn't have a lot of expectations for Continental breakfast but was pleasantly surprised to find hard boiled eggs and there was ample variety of fruit (though the bananas weren't ripe, and some of the oranges, apples,pears were bruised). Didn't touch the sweet muffins or cereal, as I brought my own top quality, and own yogurt. Staff was nice, room was very comfortable, spacious and lots of lights, comfy bed. And loved closeby, easy access to the coastal trail.

AustraliaI booked for 5 people but only 2 queen beds provided. We had to pay extra for a spare bed, although it was only $30 for 2 nights. The living area is pretty useless, tiny table and tiny couch not good for much.
Location was great, just a block from the ocean and 10 minute walk to monarch butterfly sanctuary. Having a fireplace was nice.
