Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

The room appeared clean but the bathroom smelled strongly of urine!!! They didn't have another comparable room for us. The hotel receptionist was very nice. I asked for bleach to scrub the bathroom floor and toiletr, but she couldn't find any. She did give me Fabreeze to spray the room with. It was a handicap room, so I was able to spray HOT water over the floor, which did help slightly. My husband refused to use the shower. We had to keep the door to the bathroom closed to even be able to get some sleep. The manager was not there when we checked, but he did call me later that morning. Since I booked with a 3rd part, he was not able to adjust the price but did give me extra HI points and said he would address the room before they rented it again. He seemed truly concerned. The smell of the room was disgusting.

Slow elevator. Gym room needs to have sanitizer for equipment use. Rude neighbor that would let the door slam at 4 am. Overall very quiet. Not the hotels fault. But maybe the doors could have some kinda stopper to slow it down, they slammed loud, or a copy on being a respectful neighbor. 🙄 Miner things. Overall a great hotel!
Everyone was friendly and accommodating from the moment I booked. Nice breakfast. Clean rooms with a nice view of the trees. Bed was comfortable. Pleasantly surprised by this hotel.

One of our light bulbs was burnt out. More towels to begin with would have been great. I miss bar soap. The breakfast area floor was sticky. TV remote only worked from 3 feet away. It was expensive.
Very clean and nicely decorated facilities and rooms. The patio area was really nice because it had lots of seats, space, and new furniture. The pool looked like lots of fun, and it was great that they had free pool toys for the kids to use. Breakfast was delicious with lots of fresh options and friendly staff. Check in and out were a breeze. Front desk staff was friendly and prompt. The elevator was quick and smooth. The beds were comfy and clean. The bathroom was clean and spacious. The hot water was plentiful. The area is great with lots of stores, restaurants, and very easy access.
