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 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 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 StatesI had reserved a jacuzzi tub and I stead of sending a message before we got there, they waited to tell us when we arrived. They did give us a small discount however we were really looking forward to the jacuzzi tub.
Loved the bed! It was so comfortable. The room was very quiet too. Great location.

United StatesThe second day of my stay, the front entrance was closed off due to the front parking lot getting a new asphalt sealant. I had to walk from the back entrance and I didn't have a key yet for the second day of my stay. Fortunately, an employee helped me out.

United StatesI booked online for 2 nights. I left one day earlier. When I looked at my account, they charged me 3 times $113.76, $113.86, and $227.56. I called to explain, and the lady kept saying we credited it back to your account. No, they did not. The $113.76 fell off. However, the other $113.76 and $227.56 were posted to my account. The $113.76 that posted is correct. The $227.56 is not correct I don't know the young man's name at the desk but he was very helpful with my TV and patient. However,I will never go back to Mainstay in Dover.
Staff was friendly. The room was clean.

United StatesThe property feels a little rundown, dingy, and sketchy, which is a shame because I stayed there a few years ago and it was kept up. Stains in areas in the hallway carpeting, an apparent water leak in the corner of the room that had buckled the wall paper, just didn’t feel very clean overall.
Great location. Good value. Bed was comfortable.

United StatesNight staff was not approachable or helpful. Had an attitude any conversation I had with her. Traveling with a son, and both her sons present with her at work one would presume she’d be a little more attentive to needs of a traveler. More than likely won’t book here again unless Dover area has no other vacancy.
