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 StatesWe had to leave early and didn't know about breakfast. We arrived after 8pm and had difficulty parking. There were homeless sitting in cars and people sitting across the street from the hotel. It made us feel uneasy parking somewhere other than next to the hotel, especially since our car was a rental.
The hotel has a very clean appearance and the room was clean. The AC was nice and cold.

United StatesThis is a motel throw back to the 1950s, but everything worked, sort of. I inquired to the front desk person, and the motel cat, Mango, about ice. She was very nice, and took me to a locked area, wiped out and bagged a container and gave me ice. She also gave good advice on a place to eat nearby. The AC are window units. Given that there are not many motel choices, to my knowledge, I would stay there again. I even found the throw back atmosphere and kind staff to be charming.

CanadaThe bed was really uncomfortable. The room was a bit too small but expected it to be. At night there is a pick up garbage vehicle or something similar that makes a lot of noise and would wake us up every night. Surprisingly the chickens were not bad at all!
Very close to airport. Perfect for a short stay

United KingdomTwo dead cockroaches on my room floor within the first few hours of being there. When I asked if anything could be done I was politely but resignedly told 'it's the tropics'. I don't know if anything was done, but there fortunately weren't any more during my stay. I stayed in multiple hotels in Hawaii and none of the others had this issue. Just made sure my luggage was always zipped up.
Generally fine. They were able to let me into my room a little early which was appreciated.

GermanyWe didn‘t like the air conditioning, there always was a weird smell and the air inside wasn‘t good. (We really disliked the smell of the towels!) It was a bit older. There was a Cockroach in our bathroom at night, that was disgusting… The value for money was very bad, way too expensive, for the conditions mentioned above, I would expect it to cost at least 80$ less per night (it was 180$).
Was located near the airport and very central, good to get around!

United StatesIf i had to say 1 thing negative it would be that i wish there was seating outside of our cottage but honestly that wasn't a big deal.
This is a good central location. We were able to branch out in any direction to find things to do or to find places to eat. We walked to many of these places. It was very quiet and had beautiful scenery. We will definitely go back to Kauai and will stay here again.

United Statesour room did not have a/c, just fan. We left the windows open for air circulation, but this caused our front door to blow open multiple times during our stay,even whilst locked...so somethings need some more upkeep. Kinda scary for two young girls!

United StatesMy room had no AC and was located next to the stairwell. There is 2 sets of windows to the stairwell so it was noisy when other guests would walk up and down. Unit #15 is not ideal if you plan on sleeping in.
Location is prime, being that it is 2 minutes from my parents' residence whom is the reason for the visit. Price is more affordable than most hotels and is nicer than the other affordable hotels in the area.

United StatesThe only thing I can think that might have been better were newer towels.They were pretty worn.
It was a quaint little cottage. Clean. We didn't use the kitchen much but it had all the necessities . Friendly clerk (and cat, Mango) that checked us in. It might not have all the bells and whistles like the fancy resorts but you can't beat it for the price.

GermanyIt's a little sad that there was no cutlery/plate. Like this it gets unnecessary hard to prepare a snack/have a full breakfast in your room. Also I would have loved a possibility to sit outside, which is only available downstairs.
The central location in Lihue is perfect, coffee in the morning is wonderful and rooms are well-sized with very comfortable beds.
