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 weren't able to watch TV. I called the front desk and a HDMI cable was missing. Once that was installed the TV worked for a few minutes then no sound. Bummer.
We have stayed here many times. The facilities are always welcoming and clean. The location is awesome especially for seeing a show at the Royal Oak Theater; it's within walking distance. I love the decor, the common area for people to gather and its clean.

Enjoyed the retro vibe theme of the hotel/motel. Everything was very clean and updated. It was like the motels I used to get excited about staying in years ago when I was a child but a modern day version.

United StatesThere wasn't any cold water anywhere to be found. Even when you flushed it felt like a steam bath. That was rather nice.
I loved how they updated, blending the old with the new.... Funky! The bed was comfortable. Everything was working except for the cold water. The outdoor space was amazing and when we went outside, the manager, Mark, came out to introduce himself and light the outdoor fire pit. I was there to have surgery in the morning and was in a wheelchair. The room was accommodating.

United StatesLack of seating in the room...a small side chair or two wouldn't have taken up too much space. Still opportunity for some cosmetic fix-ups around the building and grounds, but nothing that was a negative experience.
The contactless check-in was novel, using bluetooth to unlock the door. The renovations to turn this older property into a cute boutique hotel were well executed. The property is dated, but clean and pleasant. Voucher for breakfast at adjacent restaurant was nice, too.

CanadaThe room would have been better if there was a bedside table on each side of the bed. A mini fridge in the room would have been helpful. I didn't have a place to store my leftover dinner. So it went to waste.

United StatesThe futons were a little uncomfortable, only because of the buttons on the seat of the bed. Wish I had a nap pad or thicker blanket to go over those. My daughter claimed a tiny group of ants were marching around the bathroom so I went to go see. Indeed there were a little group of them by the wall across from the toilet. No big deal because none of us complained about them. We just let them do their thing!
Freebies at the front desk! Lots of character! I loved the decor. Decorated modern/chic and it was so inviting! Lots of space to walk around the room. Large window to look outside. Beautifully made kitchenette with coffee and larger then normal fridge. We were all very impressed with the room size and comfort. Pretty sure the floors are heated too!!! We are already planning a summer trip here, just for the hotel!!! Close to lots of restaurants and bars, and the best pastry shop I have ever visited. We will definitely be back.
