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 StatesThe beds were uncomfortable, the bathroom was dated, dingy, and tight. The motel was not as secure as I would prefer, the outer doors/gates were always open. I'm not sure if Delaware is more safe than where I'm from, but it made me a bit nervous because I have young children. The main road was really busy, too.
Customer service was excellent!!!! The woman at the front desk took care to warn us about jaywalking fines. She warned us about being too loud after 11pm, in the kindest manner, to avoid complaints from other guests. She also called to let us know we left an item in our room after checkout. Extremely appreciated the thoughtfulness. The pool hours are amazing!!! 8am - 11am Which kept the children busy when the adults wanted to mingle. The beach is a 10 minute walk, a straight shot (but use the crosswalk, of couse). The hotel is on the main vain street to EVERYTHING. And MANY things are within walking distance.

United StatesThey didn’t give us lollipops upon check in. Kinda weird because we always get something at check in. And we had to give our cards back which sucked because I like to keep mine for souvenirs. Due to this inconvenience, we are entitled to a $100 refund.
They had a ice machine. It was the best damn ice we’ve ever laid our eyes on. Also a nice pool. It was wonderful for people watching.

United StatesBeds were HORRIBLE and badly need updated. It was hard as rock & very thin spring mattress that was very very old & moved around to easily. Over all place was pretty clean but some area's definitely needed updated. I wasn't impressed that we were asked to take our own garbage out yet garbage overflowed for almost 2 days at the garbage can so people were just throwing it on the floor around it. But I can't stress enough that beds need replaced! Most people when going to beach don't tend to hang in room and can deal with quirks with room etc but most important part tends to be a comfortable place to sleep & be able to rest well! Beds beds beds are SUPER important to a renter.... 😉
The location was great, staff was very friendly and accommodating, parking was easier than most places at beach that we have stayed at, was always a spot available easily. View was ok. Cleaniness of room was pretty good overall.

United StatesThe room was very clean but could have been more updated. The shower and bed was pretty dated. The walls were also fairly thin so on our second night, we were woken up by a crying baby.
The location was ideal. It was a very short walk to the beach and also near a lot of different shops. The staff while checking in and out was very friendly.
