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 room was small and we had to request blankets for a cold night.
I liked having the ability to cook. The staff was very attentive to any issues or problems. The location was great. This property also allowed a 1 night stay as opposed to a minimum of 2 nights. I also liked the filtered water pitcher in the lobby.

United StatesLoud street noise that started at 615 every morning from the trash truck to the golf carts and normal hustle and bustle of the day. Since it was April it was cool but the room did not have AC, just a ceiling fan.
Cute older building with nice location just 4 doors from the mail street. 3rd floor had a good view of the harbor and nice little rocking chairs in the shared balcony. Cute Jack and Jill adjoining rooms with a bathroom in between.

United StatesThe beds were very uncomfortable, the TV screens were fuzzy, and the walls and ceiling were very thing so it was very loud with footsteps and I could hear people talking and snoring all night.
Staff was very friendly and for a budget accommodation, this was fine. We liked having two rooms with a shared bathroom so the kids could be in a separate room. It was nice to be able to store our luggage after check out.

United StatesOur room was not ready when we got there. This was unexpected to the manager as well. He and his wife had to clean it themselves to get it ready for us. The bed needs to be replaced. It was very uncomfortable. The room had a hot plate and microwave, however there weren’t any basic kitchen supplies such as pot/pan, plate or silverware to make use of it. The shower head is low requiring even average height folks to maneuver how to get your hair washed under it.
Liked the location and the manager, Adam, was personable, responsive and helpful! He made our stay! Coffee and tea were also provided in the mornings free of charge.

United StatesThe Jack and Jill room was very nice, but lacked room in the shower, very small and constricted for movement. There was noise on the top floor all night long, we could not stay asleep.
Location is epic, walking distance to Many things Catalina offers, Staff was great and attentive, very helpful with our questions.

United StatesI could not close the gaps in the hotel room blinds, therefore, anyone could look closely and intentionally at me while sleeping or in a particular area of the room. The blinds need Velcro on the sides for safety. The mattress was extremely uncomfortable--it needs a thick pad.
The hospitality of the male staff was exceptional and professional.

And our 1st night there when we went to lay down we noticed our bed was so uncomfortable it sunk in right in the middle. We just didn't complain cause it was cheap compared to everything else.

United StatesRooms were very small unless you booked a cottage. The ice machine was not working during our visit. There was no security on the premises and the doors remained unlocked to access the lobby.
Amazingly great staff. Mave was awesome with great tips for restaurants and features. Our cottage was spacious and comfy. The location was perfect for getting around by foot.
