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 motel is next to I-95 so there was a lot of traffic noise that could be heard in the room, but it wasn't too loud to sleep.
The room was very comfortable and the staff were friendly enough. The location was convenient for access to the Old Saybrook and Essex areas. The price was good compared to hotels in the area, especially for a holiday weekend.

It is conveniently located off of 95 & was near the location I wanted to be. The bathroom had been updated recently

United StatesThe room was clean but very musty smelling and damp! You could feel the moisture in the rug and bedding. There were mold spores on the window behind the curtain. We ran the air conditioner non stop which seemed to help. We did not request another room so that is on us.It was not unbearable and Our stay was short or we would have.
The location was close by to all of the things we were there to see as well as restaurants and shops.

United StatesIt was advertised as a non-smoking room, but the minute we opened the door, we could smell cigarette smoke. It might have been from years ago, but the smell was still there. My husband cut his leg on a ragged piece of metal on the lower part of the bed. We told the manager and he put a part on it, but the damage was done. The faucet in the shower/tub was a bit odd - we had to play with it to get it to work properly.
There was no breakfast provided. The room was adequate. Nothing elaborate.

United StatesThe parking lot was very tight to maneuver in. The first thing I noticed when I opened my door was a very musty smell. That first impression was hard to shake. The smell stayed for the 2 days there. The first morning, I turned on the shower to find no hot water. After turning the dial, I found the hot & cold water reversed. Hot water was obtained by barely turning the dial on. Cold was turning dial on all the way to the right. There was nothing offered us other than the room & the usual amenities (small microwave, fridge, basic full carafe coffee maker). What on thing can you do that costs little but goes a long way? Offer hot coffee in the morning in the office from a basic coffee maker from 6-11am. Include sugar & flavored creamers. People on the go don’t have time to make their own, but sure have time to stop in for a quick cup of caffeine, & a friendly hello from management. That little effort & expense goes a long way in drawing people to your facility….
Obviously, it was close to our reason for being in town, for a Celebration of Life for an uncle who lived in Old Saybrook for many years. The motel was just 1.3 miles from the church on Main St. The room basically was quite clean, which is a must when traveling. Thank you for that.

United StatesWebsite indicated breakfast was included. A sign was up at the lobby stating breakfast was not available. There was another note that said coffee in room. There was no coffee anywhere. There was a great amount of noise directly upstairs (we were in room #15) very late at night. The noises were odd and somewhat frightening to be honest.
Spacious room, very very clean with many amenities - I especially got use of the ironing board/iron. Value for money was excellent.

United StatesI brought cats. The posting indicates that the inn is pet friendly but signs in the lobby warn that they allow one dog only. Since I have less than one dog I stayed silent on the issue and that’s all I’m going to say about that. The rooms are excellent but there is more highway noise than at any other inn or motel that I have ever stayed.
