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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United StatesThe rooms are serviced every other day so sometimes we needed things. The staff was always friendly and happy to provide whatever was needed, but it would be nice not to have to ask.
The location was great for us. We enjoyed the beach access and pool. The breakfast is convenient.

Great view of the pool and beach from our room. We liked having a kitchenette. The complimentary Nespresso machine in the lobby/office area was delicious (best latte of my life).

United StatesThe beds weren’t very comfortable. It seems like they’re renovating, and our bathroom looked new. The “kitchen” had a small stove with cooktop, but it was old and dirty looking. There weren’t any cupboards for food storage, and no utensils were stocked. Pots and pans are available to “rent” free of charge, but It would’ve been difficult to cook, and clean up, which is what we had planned. We ended up buying sandwich stuff for lunch to keep in the fridge (which was nice), and eating out for dinner, which is expensive for a big family. Just something to take into consideration if you’re planning on cooking. There were also a few ants in the kitchen.
Check in was easy and staff was friendly. Breakfast was good-typical hotel hot breakfast. Room accommodated family of 6. The walk to the beach was very short and easy to access. The pool was large and nice. Overall a good price for what you are getting.

United StatesThey used to have lemon water in the lobby years ago. That was a nice touch. The floors were sandy in our room when we got there. The bathroom was extremely small with the sink outside of it. I also was not expecting surprise charges when we arrived. First they tried charging me $250 for incidentals and my pet. Then that dropped to $150, then just $100. I couldn't get a straight answer as to what exactly I was paying for. I paid the $100 and then at checkout they tried to say I still owed $150. After a phone call made by the front desk that then dropped to $50. The whole thing just seemed like it was a nickel and dime scheme. Needless to say the $100 is all they got out of me! Other than that it would've been nice to have a designated smoking area outside. We were trying to enjoy the pool and someone was smoking cigars. Even outside the smell was just super strong and made us end up leaving the pool early.
Breakfast was great. The breakfast area had been renovated and much better than when we had stayed here before. Definitely preferred the room being non carpeted. Pool was great.

United StatesI left my bathing suit under the sink and when I collected it to go home, it smelled like old animal pee. I know it was a pet friendly room but I doubt I’ll ever get the smell out. The sheets were so thin they were practically translucent. They never cleaned the room. The check in staff was rude and there wasn’t anyone at the desk when I tried to check out. A woman in the lobby told me to just throw my keys on the counter and they’d get around to it. I called four hours later and they still hadn’t checked us out of the room. The room itself had a weird red/maroon splash on the baseboard. There was long black hair in the tub, on the toilet and scattered about the room. The kitchen had no utensils. The breakfast area was minuscule. The hotel itself was about 30 minutes away from any entertainment.
The only redeeming part of this property is that it was right on the ocean.
