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.).

IrelandGreat location with its own beach area. I wouldn't be put off by the roadworks at the moment, it didn't affect our stay at all. Helpful staff and a 15 minute walk to some good bars and restaurants. The beds were also very comfortable and the room was a little dated but very clean. Great hotel for the price and location. Huge bedroom too.

United StatesOut of their control, the city is doing road work throughout the downtown corridor, and this definitely impacted traffic. But that’s the case for all of downtown. It was totally manageable. In-town travel just took longer than normal.
The room was immaculate, its furnishings were all comfortable, the shower was hot and powerful, the tv was large with plenty of stations, and the view from the beachfront room was amazing. And all of that came with an excellent price, providing a superb value. Even better, the folks there were wonderful. On check-in, the host (whose name I didn’t see) was both friendly and efficient, making the process quick and easy. And the next morning, Savannah at the front desk took plenty of time to share recommendations on things to see and do in the area, actually mapping a path for me to explore, the result of which was an amazing day of sight-seeing. Simply put, she went far beyond the norm for my expectations. The hotel isn’t brand new, so that should be understood for those seeking only the newest. And the breakfast room was a bit tight, but also kept clean and well-stocked. Overall, though, it’s aging quite well, with a staff that makes it even more impressive.

United StatesThe hotel currently has road construction right in front of their parking lot. We could only turn one way out of there. This is only a temporary situation until the construction is done.
The breakfast at Bayshore was nice. They had many grab and go items as well as hot items such as waffles, scrambled eggs, omelets and sausage. The breakfast area is large and very clean. We always stay at Bayshore every time we go to Traverse City. It is a nice hotel and we always have a good experience.
