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 StatesA little impersonal with no onsite staff except a lovely housekeeper who helped us. Really cannot think of any improvements, spend our 50 th anniversary in a lovely spot. Thank you!
There was not a breakfast but we had a Keurig machine. We did have a problem with it working and used more pods that needed. Loved that there were drinks stocked and some snacks. Decor was very retro 50’s and updated in that style. Did not use the pool but it looked inviting. Loved location, walked everywhere. Oh and they provided sunscreen which we had forgot.🙄

United StatesThe bathroom had black mold spots in the window tiles, and strange tiny black specs on the bathroom sink counter which looked like some kind of mold. Also the room was right next to an exterior pool closet which had a window between it and my room, and the light in the pool room was glaring into my room the whole night.
Small and quiet single-story courtyard style motel with a pool in the middle. They had vinyl records to play in my room, which was nice to relax. The staff communicated very well and were accommodating. They had free snacks and soft drinks, which was nice after a long conference day.

United StatesThe property is a historical property, true to its age and genre. As such, the bathrooms are exactly as they were in 1947, which was not a problem for me as I had prepared for the evening at my home before arriving (I actually came from LaQuinta nearby) and did not need to use the shower, etc. to get ready for NYE. I can see how larger people of today’s sizes would have a little difficulty moving around in the smaller space with lower counters and smaller shower doors, however the owners thoughtfully added a higher mirror and counter in the main room that comes in handy to give you that extra room. My room had a sliding patio door instead of a regular room door, but with only 10 rooms and a secured property gate and fenced perimeter, I felt safe as a solo female traveler.
Perfectly situated within walking distance of downtown Palm Springs. Beautiful, quiet, lovely grounds, large pool. The bed is very comfortable. Robes are thoughtfully provided as are snacks, bottled water, sparkling waters, coffee pods, and creamers. I wish they had just plain creamer and not flavored but not a big deal. The room is small but large enough for a sofa seating area in addition to the bed so there is some room to move around. The views from the room and the grounds are so peaceful.

LithuaniaIf you are planning to come with friends with the intention to have a pool party and etc., you might need to look for other property.
The place looks like in photos, comfy beds, every room has a small patio and a good size pool in the middle. It is about 10-15 minutes walking distance from main street restaurants. Parking is free on the street and there is plenty of space. It is a very quite, relax, atmosphere.
