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 didn't like it when I checked in, and was told they don't accept the type of debit card I have, so I had to leave to find an ATM to withdrawal all of my money, then go back to check in. As I was finally about to get my room key, they said that I needed to pay an additional $160 cash only deposit (refundable at check out, so that's fine). They started handing me my room key again, and stopped to say "Oh wait, I see your reservation says you have a pet, so that's an additional $100 because it's $20 per pet, per night." However, I wasn't told about the pet fee when I originally booked the room, and I didn't have all of the funds for our dog to stay the entire 5 nights. Not only that, but our "pet" is actually my husband's Registered Emotional Support Animal, and registered in training to become his Service Animal, which means we aren't supposed to be charged for her whether it's at a hotel, or if we rent an apartment or house that specifically doesn't allow pets, it's the law that she is to be allowed no matter what. They wouldn't allow her to stay without paying, and I had only $40 left to my name by this point. I was just too exhausted and didn't feel like arguing, so I gave up our last $40 so she could at least stay the first 2 nights, but had to have a family member pick her up after that and take her to their house for our last 3 nights. I also didn't like the fact that there was a blizzard that started on our 3rd day there, and by check out, I had to walk through almost 2 feet of snow with all of our belongings to pack in the car before check out. There were no plows that came through. It was very difficult getting my AWD SUV through the parking lot. My kids loved being able to swim in the pool, but the hallway to get to and from was about 10° F, so they were wet and freezing cold when it was time to get out.
We liked the cleanliness of the hotel and the comfortable beds. We like how they accept pets because my husband has a registered Emotional Support Animal and is registered in training to be his Service Animal as well. He only has 1 eye, with not much vision in it, and has PTSD from a firework explosion. Even though they charge extra for pets, (wouldn't be a big deal if she was just a "normal" pet) they wouldn't accept her registered license card stating they HAVE to accept her at no charge. (More on that in the dislike section). We also liked how they serve breakfast from 6am-10am, and kept the food out until after breakfast was over, which most hotels we've stayed at only serve until 9 am, and usually start putting everything away early, so that was convenient for us to sleep in and still eat breakfast if we wanted to. We loved the location, as we had multiple fast food restaurants, gas stations, a Walgreens, and a Hy-Vee grocery store, all within a few blocks of us. Plus, we were only a couple of blocks away from the interstate, so it made it easy to travel to Omaha to visit my dad in the hospital. The TV in our room had the basic 70 channels, but also had a movie app where we were able to rent movies or even watch free movies and shows! TV was pretty small, but I can't complain since we had a lot of movies to choose from. Overall, we enjoyed our 5 night stay and would definitely go back.

United StatesRoom was not ideal. Missing a glass pane in the window and full of fresh spider webs. We only stayed one night while passing through so we made it work. It was smaller than most rooms of similar value over the course of our trip and quite crowded. The outside door from the side of the building would not shut so there was no secure feeling there.
The location was great, right off the highway.
