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 StatesAlthough no smoking signs are clearly placed throughout the property, at all the exits, the grounds were covered with cigarette butts and the entire hotel smelled like cigarette smoke. Inside our room was a bit better, but the cigarette smell creaped into our room through spaces around the door. Although the lobby was updated and modern, our room, the breakfast room, the pool, the exterior were outdated and poorly kept. Flickering lights in the hallways, dingy carpets, peeling paint. The door handle to the exit door nearest to our room was broken. There was a trick to opening the door without pulling the handle off. The railings inside the swimming pool had the same issue. The bottom brackets had either come loose or were never installed, so when using the exit ladders, you could not pull on them. They felt very unsecure and rickety!! The tub in our room did not drain well. Despite reprogramming the air flow machine in our room several times. The room stayed a constant 74 degrees. A little too warm for our liking. The second and third day of our stay we were met with not only cigarette smoke, but also a very strong Marijuana smell. GROSS!!!!! I'm my party, it was my two young children and I. Inside our room we felt safe, but outside our room, we traveled quickly, and on high alert. The hotel was in a run down part of the city, so it added a bit of uneasiness to the overall feel of the property.
The room rate was perfect for our budget. The room was spacious and appeared to be clean. The refrigerator worked very well and kept all of our food cold and fresh. The wifi was screaming fast, which was excellent for the work I needed to get done. I have never had that GREAT of wifi at a hotel!! The swimming pool, 👍👍 top notch! The water was warm, and the depth of the pool made it extra fun to play in!! Lastly, the front desk guy. He was very kind. He helped replace batteries to our TV remote and helped program the tv. He allowed us to check in a few hours early. We were always greeted with a smile and he was sincere in his desire to accommodate and help us.

United StatesIt was a dump . People are living there. Permanently. Jumping out of their window to smoke,and jumping back in. Bathroom, they painted over the mold around the tub. room 320. Bedding was bad, sheets were wrinkled,I was sure if they were clean or not. They say you get what you pay for. Extremely disappointed hallway reeked is smoke and wet moldy carpet This happen once before in San Antonio.. we witnessed people selling drugs, and 4 girls turning tricks. It was supposed to be a super 8. Close to the Riverwalk. So I quit using booking com. I would like a refund. I would like a refund of my 131$ dollars. The trip in San Antonio was never answered. Do you people EVER CHECK ROOMS OF MOTELS OR HOTELS BEFORE ADDING THEM TO YOUR LIST OF YOUR HOTELS

New ZealandThe facility was a bit rundown i.e lights not working and shower curtain kept falling down. We didn’t get any room service during our stay despite asking for new towels. The hallways smelled funny but the room itself was not too bad. The air conditioner in the breakfast room was not efficient enough so it was really hot.
The location was very convenient to Central Omaha.

United StatesMy boyfriend and I stayed two separate nights...one night on our way through town and again on our return back through. The first visit, I had to change rooms immediately because the toilet was running from the moment I opened the door and didn't seem to stop. The second visit was better, but in both cases the condition of the rooms were disappointing. It's like they sent their painter through with a blindfold...paint all over the floors and the door knobs, etc. Not to mention the bathroom door must have been soaking in water at some point as the bottom 2-3" was split and cracked terribly. And the shower in our room on the 2nd night had issues...it sounded like a jackhammer running when you tried to turn on the hot water...which took forever. I'm sure the neighboring rooms hated us!
Rooms were basically clean and the staff was friendly. The location is fairly quiet and is only 5+ minutes to Omaha Eppley Airport and downtown. They offered free Wi-Fi, in-room coffeemaker with coffee and tea packets, and tiny shampoo/conditioner/lotion bottles (~0.25 oz prob.). The continental breakfast is nothing to write home about, but they do offer it, which was nice.

United StatesI have slept on jail beds that were more comfortable. The pool was not heated and the water was extremely cold even for an indoor pool. There is significant evidence of mice in the commons area where breakfast is served. The carpets are staind throughout the facility. They tried covering up a hole in our room wall with a painting and the smoke detector was missing from our room, pictures included. The whole place has a sour smell...like garbage that has sat in the trash can and needs taken out.
The location and staff were about the only positives of this hotel.
