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.).

AustraliaThe room smelt a little bit like wet towels, if that makes sense. I didn't notice it after a while. But I wouldn't let that stop you from staying.
The staff were really lovely. I was really jet lagged and worried about not getting a good night sleep. The person on the front desk took the time to talk through the rooms with me and discuss which would be quietest, rather than making me feel like a pain in the butt. And that made all the difference. The pillows were amazzzzingggg too!

United StatesI would have loved (and would have been willing to pay for) a simple breakfast in the morning. That said, nearby breakfast options in town were good.
I loved: - the way the Inn was decorated - the complementary, good quality coffee - the patio - the friendliness of the staff

United StatesThe bed size was the smallest queen I’ve slept on in decades. Noise from busy State Street and bar patrons was as expected (fair warning!)
Our Cornell grad student recommended Argos from her visits to its lively bar. The location was very convenient to her apartment and the Ithaca Commons businesses. Overnight guests have dedicated parking spaces in the Argos lot. We took frequent advantage of the excellent espresso machine. The design and decor (both interior and exterior) is charming. Loved the large, bright and airy bathroom. I’ve stayed in two upscale modern hotels in Ithaca but really enjoyed Argos!

United StatesRooms could use a bit more storage or places to hang items. There was a private party one afternoon closing public areas including bar. We were offered bottle service and tea to our room (or upstairs seating area).
The inn was beautiful - bed was comfy- bathroom beautiful. The rebuild and interior design is gorgeous.

United StatesIf I had to find anything negative, the parking lot was pretty muddy and not sealed, we didn't want to bring mud into the hotel, but in fairness, it was raining. Our only valid complaint is the pillows were so hard and uncomfortable, felt like i trying to sleep on a rock!! I gave up and used clothing and a puffy jacket for a pillow.
beautiful Inn. enjoyed the patio room, loved the bathroom with the heated floor!! beautiful elegant impressive room and Inn. Would love to return one day!

United StatesThe road traffic was very loud. I would try to stay in the back of the Inn if possible. We were asked to check out early due to electrical maintenance. We were not compensated for that. We should have been able to check in early, or given a free drink at their bar next door. The room was quite expensive.
The room was clean and comfortable. The shower was great! The coffee and tea in the sun room was a nice touch.

We loved the homey & comforting feeling when we stayed there! The staff is amazing! The inn is absolutely gorgeous, we are definately going back there when it’s warmer so we can use fire pits and have a drink to relax at night! Well worth the money spent!

United StatesWe loved the rooms but faced the road in our 1st floor room which made a bit of noise in the room. Also the heat was quite loud. The heating and cooling system is still under renovation.
The location was great for Cornell parents weekend. The was a high level of attention to detail at the Inn common areas and rooms.
