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):
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 KingdomStaff not always on site which was problematic for check in and access to pool/ office in the morning.
Wonderful accom with a nice eye for 60's stylings. Funky late night bar and a lovely pool. Robust neighbourhood but the city only $15-$20 away in an Uber. Super clean rooms.

United States of AmericaIt was a bit far from Charleston itself, altho the drive to and parking in the city were fine. There are a few neighborhood places to eat but not many.
Loved the impeccable retro decor, the clean room and comfortable bed, the keurig coffee, the on-site bar with music (but the rooms are out of range of the noise, don't worry!) Staff, altho offsite, was friendly and prompt with messaging. Pool looked very inviting.

United States of AmericaSome would say location…I guess so but only if your intention is to park and walk around the area. It’s still very convenient to most areas
It’s very nicely remodeled, clean, safe, just a great value

United States of AmericaUnfortunately, the area around the motel is a bit depressing, close to a freight rail that you can hear at night, and with very few dining options within walking distance. Fortunately, one of the few choices is a very good Jamaican joint! All said, I would still recommend this motel, for travelers like me who rely on public transportation.
Love the motel's mid-century character! Also like how the room is spotless and stocked very generously with coffee, toiletries and towels. And a direct bus line to town (where you can either walk to - or change to free shuttles - to the various historic points of interest).

United States of AmericaThe bed was too high and the room was not dark.
Very nice. I liked the online check-in. We got there late so we were able to just go straight to our room. Bed was a little high off of the floor. I am short so it was a little difficult getting in and out of bed. The room was not dark. Some how even with the drapes closed the light from outside still got in and made the room too light for my taste. Otherwise the place was great.

CanadaAs a less than tech savvy person, I was not comfortable with the check-in process and lack of a person on site when I was having an issue. The neighbourhood was a bit "dodgy" make us uncomfortable with walking to a couple of the local restaurants.
the room design, super clean, perhaps the cleanest hotel room we have ever been in.

United States of AmericaYou have to have a car to get anywhere.
This place was so well designed. The owners thought through every detail of the hotel and also, the customer's experience. The smell of the room was good (so rare with hotels and especially motels), the artwork on the walls was thoughtful in a design and fashion way. The bed was comfortable, and firm. The hotel lobby and bar upstairs were destinations in and of themselves. And the check in/out and communication with the office was very easy with no issues whatsoever. If we ever visit Charleston again, I would definitely stay here.
