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 hot tub was out of order when we were there. Parking is a little difficult with only a small lot.
Excellent breakfast, easy to find location. We were quickly greeted when we got there and found our room to be comfortable and relatively quiet. We were surprised to find it at such a good price for the time of our visit - we were there the weekend of a football game and All State so campus was very busy.

United States of AmericaNo gluten free bread/bakery type items. Note on door said “Gluten free items available upon request”, but when inquiring, the attendant pointed out fruit and oatmeal. For those that could have gluten, there was a crockpot full of gravy but no biscuits. No non stick spray for the waffle iron.
Very clean. Smelled good. Desk attendants were friendly.

United States of AmericaWould have appreciated another wall outlet as the only ones were in the lamps and they didn't fit one of my plug ins. The TV remote didn't consistently work. Sometimes we had to press extremely hard to get the numbers to work. Not all of the numbers appeared to work as well. (Not the hotel's fault at all, but there were lots of noisy kids around 12AM running up and down the hall.
The room was just as described! The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was very nice. The shower was large and much more appealing that the typical/standard tub/shower curtain combo. Everything appeared clean! The microwave & fridge were clean as well.

United States of AmericaThe hot breakfast was not available when I went down at 8:30 --when it was advertised to be available until 9:00. I had stayed here previously and appreciated their hot items (eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy). Given the staff shortages everywhere, I couldn't see anyone around (or even at the front desk) to ask.
Great value. Clean and all the neccessitites provided. They allowed my noon checkout for business purposes. They had a decent variety of continental breakfast items.
