Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

A little expensive compared to other properties we have been staying at in this part of the state. The chairs in the room were uncomfortable, but still nice to have a table and chairs. We could have used more than 3 hangers, but also did not ask for more. The room was ready for our arrival (lights and a/c on), but the lobby and room were at frostier temperatures than they need to be (66F in the room). Not the motels fault, but the room next door ignored the no smoking within 25 feet of a door or window signs posted everywhere and dragged a patio chair from the adjacent room to smoke incessantly in front of their room. Small, picky issues.
Clean, well-appointed and spacious room. This motel is a gem. The bed was comfortable and the room well-lit. We had a fridge and microwave and there was also a light breakfast in the lobby (cereal, toast, yogurt, sausage biscuits, fruit, juice, coffee, granola bars). Friendly staff!

Wow, what a great surprise! This small motel had the cleanest rooms I have ever seen even in properties costing twice as much per night. The breakfast buffet was much appreciated -- bagels, yogurt, fresh fruit, oatmeal and cereal.

No complaints!
We had the deluxe king suite and it had been recently renovated. It was gorgeous, clean, and spacious. The AC worked great! I loved that all of the doors were painted a beautiful different color. Outside was clean and well maintained. They offer breakfast but we had to leave early so did not get to eat. We would definitely stay here again.

The furniture reminded me of a house being staged to sell. Everything looked great, but, other than the bed, the furniture was not very comfortable and inviting to actually use. I only probably noticed this because I needed to work at a computer for 8 hours a day while I was there, so for most, it was probably fine. That being said, I asked to borrow a more comfortable chair from the breakfast area and they were very helpful in supplying that once I explained about the problem. They went above and beyond to do their best to make me feel comfortable while I worked.
The location was perfect for me. The staff was friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable and everything was clean and nice.

While everything is very clean I feel floors need to be better. My granddaughter was walking around barefoot and her feet were so dirty. She was in another room but my room was the same. Wear slippers. Hotel should use a professional floor cleaner. I love the floor though…no carpet.
Cute as can be. All up to date decor. Very comfortable beds. Pay the extra and stay in larger room if your there for longer stay. Feels like you’re at home.

Wish office was open on Sunday so I could’ve had breakfast on premise.
Booked late last minute and the owner sent message back immediately to assist me getting there and letting me know the office would be closed on Sunday if I needed additional help she was available via text. Place was cute; quaint, clean, decorated so nice. All around amazing place. Would return!!!!
