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 StatesUnfortunately the area is sketchy. Are we going it's an older hotel with a lot of disrepair. - Horrible water pressure, - the tub hardly drained ( standing in 4 inches of water for a quick 5-minute shower, took 20 more minutes to drain after shower was over), - soundproofing is horrible we were on the back of the building facing the pool yet could hear all the main road traffic and every single ambulance police car and everything else that went down Busch Blvd - went to ask one of the housekeeping staff a question to be informed that they spoke absolutely no English - at first glance the room looked neat but as you were there and looked around you could see it really truly needed a deep cleaning
Very accessible to Busch gardens

United StatesBathroom didn’t even have a shower curtain. No wonder the sidewalls were rotted in the bathroom. Saw one roach, just one but still.
It’s close to a lot of things walking distance. The people there are plenty nice. The rooms themselves are let’s just say the pics were clearly taken at least ten years ago. I’m a trucker, I can stay anywhere. If you only care about price not that bad but if you want a nice motel, this one is not it.

United StatesTruth be told the room really wasn’t that clean, A/C blew out a plume of dust after turning it back on again in the morning, there were some flies although it is Florida and the hotel is set up where the doors open to the outside, and the price for the room was definitely a bit outrageous for the quality of the hotel. I would not have given this place more than 2 stars if it weren’t for the front desk staff who deserve 10/10 which is why I rated the overall stay a 5. It is an okay place to rest your head when you’re on a budget in Tampa, traveling through, or just needing 4 walls, a bed, and a shower to keep you okay for a night. I also felt very safe walking in and around to the room and whilst staying in the room.
The clerks were some really nice guys and even though you could tell that they were tired and most likely fed up with peoples complaints they still greeted everyone with a smile and had worked to create an efficient service!
