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 StatesAbsolutely nothing!
Nothing but good to say about the Blue Gate. The breakfast is like eating in an Amish restaurant. The extra sitting around the building makes for great/fun places to meet with family and friends.

United StatesThe weather. :-(
We met my wife’s cousins there. We all brought, or rented, e-bikes and rode the Pumpkinvine Nature Trail. It was great, even though it rained the rest of the time. We were extremely happy with the hotel . The breakfast was to die for!

United StatesThe only things that could have been better- at check in the room was not ready by check in time. Not horrible but because it was pouring rain it was a little bit of an inconvenience. Breakfast biscuits weren't homemade:(
The room was clean, bed was comfortable and breakfast was good. We had tickets for the theater so being so close to the venue was a huge plus as well! I would gladly stay here again.

United StatesThe only thing I had a problem with is the parking. Me and my husband are still young enough and able to walk so it wasn't really an issue for us. But we did come across an elderly couple that had walkers that was having a difficult time walk all the way to the front door. The problem is when there is a show next door they all park at the hotel so when hotel guests come back after dinner or being out for the day there is hardly any parking and if there is parking its on the last row by the road. I feel like maybe there should be more consideration for hotel guests especially the elderly and handicapped.
Great hotel. Everything from the staff, location, cleanliness, awesome breakfast buffet and all the extra fun stuff is top notched.

United StatesNot a large enough canopy at entrance. Pouring rain on arrival (no one’s control/fault) Two cars blocking drive forcing everyone else to unload from parking lot. Some kind of shuttle to/from restaurant would be nice (since same owners of all three properties - unless I’m mistaken)
Next door to venue. Show at the Performing Arts Theatre was reason for stay.

United StatesThis time unfortunately we had guests above us extremely noisy. We usually r on second floor. This time first floor. So our three nights proved to be less sleep. As the hotel was not crowded would have been nicer if they could have placed people not above rooms occupied. Just a thought.or better sound proof!
