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 pool area can get loud in the evenings. If you are looking for more peace and quiet, I would request staying in a room that is not by the pool.
Very cute beach motel right up from the main beach and boardwalk. Location is amazing. Ample parking right by the building. Rooms are renovated very nicely and extremely clean. All told, a very cute, little beachside hotel.

NetherlandsThe blinds didnt darken the room at all. The streetlights shined through very bright, and the moment the sun rose the room was lit again.
Located right on the beach and promenade of Santa Cruz. You can either walk towards Downtown, or enjoy the beach and the Piers. Big, Spacious rooms, comfortable beds. Room rate included free coffee, ice scones and popcorn. Nice addition.

United States of AmericaThere is currently construction right next door. Overnight, there were loud beeping noises coming from the machines. It was loud enough to interfere with the kids sleep.
The property is great. We had a 1 bedroom suite. The living room was comfortable for the kids with a murphy bed and sofa bed. I loved having a fridge and microwave. The room was very clean and serviced daily. It’s right across the street from the ocean with a great view. Although if you’re paying for a suite, it would be better to ask for the second floor for the same price. The location can’t be beat. Across the street from the beach and between the boardwalk and the pier. We didn’t use our car the entire weekend. The pool and hot tub are great to have at the end of the day.

IrelandThis isn't really a complaint, but as a visitor from Ireland, I love my tea. While it is free from reception at given times, I would've loved a small kettle and some teabags in the room.
A faultless experience. Fantastic location and beach view, spotlessly clean and well-appointed room and friendly helpful staff. A heated pool and hot tub were great additional bonuses, as were the complementary popcorn, snow cones and great selection of coffees

United States of AmericaWe wish we could have stayed longer!
We loved everything about this place! This was our first stay, and it definitely won't be our last! Jessica (the desk clerk) was very friendly, and helpful. And the housekeeping staff were very efficient and thorough. The entire facility, from our room to the pool area, were exceptionally well cared for and clean. And it was located directly across the street from the Boardwalk, pier, and the beach!
