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 booked this in May. When get there they first wanted to charge us $202.70 . When reserved said $163 and some change. When we told them paying by cash they jumped the price up to almost $240. They finally agreed to let us have it for $207. My card trying be charged $150 when we got receipt. They first try to put us in a room not clean and beds wasn't even made. They said room would be ready in 45 minutes. Then the cleaning lady brought us a key to different room and said they put us in different room. The room we finally got didn't have a phone in it or working lamp. Called the office on my cell complained. They said they would fix it shortly. Hour went by. Called back they told me come get a new light bulb. Fiancée went to get it. He fell because sidewalk was uneven and he's legally blind. The owner walked him back to the room. Owner put new light bulb in and it still didn't work. So he went got us new lamp. They show on their website continental breakfast included. Fiancée went to get some. Owner said it wasn't included in or deal. Come to find out no one get it. We also found out by locals and police Regency Inn is known for doing things that way. We checked reviews even some of them says same thing how they was treated. I WOULDN'T EVEN STAY THERE AGAIN IF IT WAS ONLY MOTEL IN IOLA. I DEFINITELY WOULDN'T RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE.

United StatesThe fridge had moldy food in it when we got there, and the non-smoking room we booked smelled of cigarettes, we were there 2 nights, and we checked out 2 hours before the check out time. We left trash in the trash can and a couple of cups on the counter that wouldn't fit. We were charged an extra $130 for "litter" and because they had to clean the room. I'm sorry, but when did cleaning a room after someone's stay become an extra charge? It should be a given that they have to take the trash out and sweep? I would absolutely avoid this place at all costs. The only plus is that it's cheap. The owners know obviously nothing about running a hotel.

United StatesTrting to save a bit of money after an a long trip for my sister's duneral, I booked a room for $65.43 through Booking.com. When I got to the hotel a lady was staying in room 110 stating a bullet hole was in her bathroom mirror and the hotel man said; oh no it's a dent. Since we could not cancel, I told him I had a reservation. I saw a sign on the counter that stated: if you have a pet tell us now or we will charge you $100. dogs allowed no cats! I told him I had a small dog in a carrier and he charged me $20 pet fee ( never have i been charged a pet fee but whatever) which would make my stay $85.43 but when I got my credit card receipt the bill was over $97!!! When I asked why the hotel man's wife came out and told me they charged a hotel fee!!! What a rip off!!! The original price on booking.com was for $47 but the price changed because I requested 2 beds. The hotel stated they had free breakfast but the sign said breakfast hours changed from 8 am to 9:30 am. So basically since most travelers are gone by then, most of their postings on booking regarding prices and amenities are a lie to draw you in and jack-up the prices. Go to any other hotel and save yourself the problems we experienced. Finally after we got to the room the TV had no signal I called and asked why and the guy shows up to our room woth a remote after his wife literally asked me well did you turn it on? Did you turn it on with the remote? Well yeah! Then I tell him it is not a remote issue so he says oh well you have to choose HDI1 not TV because it's cable ma'am... seriously? An hour later at midnight the hotel man again knocked on the door as he had kept my Driver's license and instead of calling brought them to the room, which was nice but it was 2 hours after check-in and midnight. The room was cold and the blankets thin. I turned on the heat and it made a loud whining noise so freeze or no sleep? I chose to freeze 😩 Worst experience in a hotel EVER!!!

United StatesI did not like the surprise room rate change from $51 to $98. It should have been resolvable by the staff immediately to avoid a very bad impression, but they did not have the authority without risking a personal pay cut. This speaks of poor management and staff should not be held responsible or blamed. I hope upper level management will take responsibility and not penalize motel staff.
I liked the staff, but Regency management (faulty computer technology, lack of support) put them in a very difficult position by changing the quoted room rate from $51 to $98 dollars.

United StatesDeceitful business practice. Cockroaches and bedbugs
Nothing. I didn’t stay at this motel. The owner refused to honor the Priceline price. She attempted to add several “extra” charges not mentioned when making the booking on Priceline. These extra charges nearly doubled the cost. I refused to pay the extra charges and found another hotel for the night. Regency Inn charged my card anyway. I’ve since learned that they notorious for these types of business practices. It’s theft by deception and Priceline refused to do anything about it. Also, many reviews mention bedbugs and cockroaches.

United StatesThe place is run down, dirty, drug traffic location that is not safe at all! Room was not cleaned, had food delivered and local confirmed how unsafe the property was. Red chucks of snot looking stuff on walls and in sink, coffee on walls, floor sticky, mini fridge dirty, table had a layer of grease on it, shower was clearly dirty. Broken equipment, run down furniture, floor between bathroom and sink area was messed up. Place was disgusting and I wish I never booked it. Barely slept bc I was worried about my safety and couldn't get out of there fast enough. I have more than 4 photos, but that's all booking let's me upload.
The beds are comfortable and not hard.

United StatesIt was the worst experience on booking a room. Booked online for $56 then gor to hotel and owners was trying to charge me $96 because they was booked solid supposedly but parking lot was practically empty! Horrible experience will not use booking.com again. I actually went a 1/2 down the road to America best Inn and stayed for $60 that night and they didn't change the price on me once I was in the lobby thinking I would juat pay for it because I was there already and it was late. Would not ever stay at the regency if I was homeless.

United StatesMy room smelled like weed, seen a few cockroaches and I have a video of one on the wall. I will spend extra money and go to another hotel. I brought it up to the front desk and they sent a housekeeper up there. She recleaned the room, the night stand drawer had bags and dirt. Asked to change rooms and they refused as no one can smell that weed smell...
Was within my budget.
