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 StatesWe had a very nice stay, though I do feel like we got the "Booking.com" room (205) as it was more outdated than others, right on the housekeeping service closets, and had little way to block out the security lights from the corner which shone brightly into the bathroom and sitting area. Some curtains could help with this. A newer fan could also enhance the stay, the current fan has seen better days and makes a lot of extra noise. Had a nice time regardless and may consider again, but would probably book directly and be more specific about my needs.
Perfect location, excellent staff, cute extras, and large balcony with gorgeous views.

United StatesAmazing location! Huge room! Super comfy bed with soo many excellent pillows! Gorgeous spa tub and fabulous shower. We just loved our room! The whole building was beautiful, with little gardens and plants all over. The staff was great! Very professional but also friendly and welcoming. Each person we engaged with stood out in some way. And oh my- the breakfast on the sun deck! Delicious food and coffee with the most amazing ocean view! The gentleman running the breakfast was on point- he even ran down to get us a bottle of champagne when we mentioned mimosas! This place is the opposite of a cold, fancy, cookie-cutter hotel. All personality and charm with subtle luxury. By far, favorite hotel I've ever stayed at. We will be back!

United StatesWhen we showed up we were told our reservation was cancelled. A slight mix up that they made up for by putting us in a better room and offering us an even better room for our second night.
Walking distance to a lot. Super close to the beach. Room was very cute.

The staff was amazing!!! Very friendly and polite something you don't always see. From the Front Desk to the 2 guys (sorry didn't get their name) serving breakfast. They treated you better than a restaurant. Plus, the amenities they provide from beach chairs, umbrellas to water and snacks. You can't get that usually. They go an extra mile for you. Was such a nice stay, hotel is a little old so you do hear the people above you but that doesn't make it a bad place. Would definitely stay again.

The location is insane!!! And the rooftop terrace and breakfast was fantastic. It's a bit pricey for an older hotel but the free breakfast definitely helps. Rooms are funky with different themes. I would stay here again. Also free bikes and beach stuff to borrow. Loved it.

United StatesWe loved everything!
We love the greeting that David gave us we first arrived and each day after. The breakfast on the sundeck, the amazing coffee and food for breakfast, the pie and ice cream , all of the snacks and coffee available to us, day and night, the spa room with the tub, and the decor of the entire hotel. We liked that the bikes were available, but we did not have time to use them. Location was the best!

United StatesThe only thing we didn’t enjoy about our stay was being questioned by one of the morning staff members who questioned us being guests at the hotel. We felt a bit offended and like we didn’t belong. She was a very short lady with glasses and a long jacket.
The breakfast was absolutely memorable. The view, along with the breathtaking crissont. We had the complementary pie downstairs which was incredible. The room and staff were 10/10. Would stay again and recommend.

United StatesWhen you know a guest will be checking in, heat the rooms at least minimally. Checking into a freezing room ruins the first impression. Heater was adequate once it was on, but took more than an hour to feel comfortable.
Superb staff, quirky fun rooms, quiet location, excellent continental breakfast on rooftop terrace, surprising and delightful complementary "pie reception" in the evening.

United StatesI couldn’t get the fireplace to work so I used the space heater which was a little annoying because then it would get too hot and I would unplug it and then it would get cold and I would plug it back but other than that I love this place and I really could’ve said something and had that issue fixed I just didn’t feel like it
they offer complementary bottled waters, breakfast and pine ice cream in the evening. I love the sundeck where they serve breakfast overlooking the ocean and the customer service is awesome.
