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 pool was (and probably still is) out of service. The one treadmill in the small gym doesn't work. The hotel is mildly dingy. It was probably quite nice at one time but has not been well maintained. The first room I got smelled like smoke so I asked to be moved. Then the night manager had to go to the dryer to get towels for me. I asked if they are short on staff or short on linens and she replied, "Both." I have seen properties like this before: the owner sucks out as much cash as possible while spending the minimum, and then sells it off to a new owner who does a full rehab. I'm guessing this place is about five years from losing its franchise and renting rooms by the hour or by the month.
The location is good, the price is reasonable for the quality of the property, and the staff is friendly. The breakfast consists of sausages, scrambled eggs, and warm biscuits, with the standard selection of pastries and fruits, plus the obligatory waffle maker. And a juice dispenser. This was a pleasant surprise in an otherwise middle-quality hotel.

United StatesWe chose this hotel becasue of the handicapped room with an elevated toilet and heated pool. The air conditioner in our handicapped room was broken. We were moved to a non handicapped room where my friends walker would not fit throught the bathroom doorway. My disabled friend had to go into another room to use the handicapped bathroom. The hallways were not aiir conditioned in 90 degree heat. The pool had been out of order several weeks, this information was not on the website. The floral scent of cleaning/room freshening products was overwhelming, curtains had multiple holes in the liner ( I have pictures to verify) The closet carpet had a 4 by 4 inch hole that looked like it had been eaten by a dog in this pet friendly hotel ( I have pictures to verify). We remained at the hotel becasue a lack of avaiablity of handicapped rooms other area hotels. We used booking.com and the typical price for a weekend is $86.00 per night. We were charged $149.00 one night and $179.00 for the second night. The owner said it was because of a big event in Cedar Rapids and that increased prices. While checking out I asked for a price adjustment, the owner was not there to approve. I wrote my phone number and reason for price adjustment on the check out receipt but was not contacted. I travel to Cedar Rapids monthly and will not stay at this hotel again.
The parking lot was accessible. Non owner staff were friendly.

United StatesNo pillows, no WI-FI, no pillows, bathroom had no towels or toilet paper. We let the front desk know via phone as no one is at the desk at night and we were just told sorry. No one brought us anything. The bathroom sink was disgusting. Dirt and debris in the sink and toilet. We were there for an hour and had to leave. We paid for an entire different hotel as we could not stay there. I am still working on my refund
The price was a great deal but for what we received it was horrible.

United StatesTerrible experience. Booked a double suite off of this site. Called to confirm the reservation, they spent 45 minutes looking for it and told me they didn't have a double suite. Gave me two conjoining rooms. I called the night before my trip, was assured by the manager everything was set and the pool would be working this weekend. I got there, took them an hour to find conjoining rooms and only found some after moving another guest. I had two dogs with me, asked about a pet fee, and the front desk guy said he didn't know how to enter it, so he wasn't going to charge it considering the inconvenience. Then, it took another hour to even get the 2nd room key. I went into the 2nd room key, the bathroom still had dirty soap and towels in it. The TV won't turn on ANY channels. Pool will be closed all weekend. Carpet was coming up in the rooms, coffee makers had no trays for the filter and coffee, no cups-just lids. Breakfast was from 6-9 and wasn't ready until 7am both mornings. Room keys quit working twice. After I left, they attempted to charge my card the pet fee that they had said was complimentary. Absolute disaster, will never use this hotel again. I had two dogs and three kids stuck in hotel rooms that were too small, with no pool-which was the whole reason I got rooms here in the first place. Garbage quality, for way too high prices.

Nothing else was done to try to fix it. Also the carpet was dirty enough that by walking bare foot on it you had to wash the bottom of your feet because they were very dirty.
