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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 StatesOnly thing l could think of would be to add a towel rack in the bathrooms.
Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly, courteous and helpful. Full size tubs had great water pressure. Toilets flushed very well. Location was as convenient as could be, everything was very close, restaurants and stores could be walked to. Best value by far to any competiters. Highly recommend.

United StatesThe downside of the experience was the loudness of the heating unit. There were 3 couples in our group. All noted that the heaters were effective but loud. One couple had to turn theirs off in order to get a restful sleep.
We didn't use take breakfast. The room and bathroom were about what we expected. We were looking for a motel close to the Alma College campus and this was good.

United StatesMaybe a few more toiletries, but the room wasn't lacking for anything. Internet was a little sketchy at times, but resolved itself quickly. No major issues with anything.
Breakfast consists of two dry cereals & coffee. I always bring my own, but at least it's available. I have stayed at the Alma Motel, on & off, for over ten years. The rooms are clean & quiet, & the staff is always hospitable; they will do their best to accommodate any special requests. The location is central to many walkable places, & it's right off the highway. Can't beat the value for a few nite's stay. I will continue to choose the Alma Motel over higher priced options every time.

United StatesUpdate the towels. Add sweeteners for coffee for diabetics
Location was perfect. Alma, MI is very small. We were coming to move into the Alma College residence halls. Alma Motel is perfectly located to do that. The owners are nice. The breakfast is minimal. Fruit Loops and wheaties-type cereals. Coffee and tea. Sugar, no sweeteners. But there are several fast food places with breakfast within walking distance. The room was a good size. Two double beds. The fridge was adequate. The freezer was not. The beds were very comfortable, and I rarely sleep week the first night! I last very well here. That was unexpected and well appreciated! It was quiet as well. The shower was adequate. I think Michigan may not require conditioner, so be aware there is shampoo and soap only. The towels are rough.

United StatesAfter biking and dinner, we wanted to sit outside to enjoy the beautiful night and there just wasn’t enough outside patio chairs. So we ended up pulling some of the chairs from the room outside. It was no biggie but it seems like each room should have a couple chairs.
Andy and Donna worked so well with our group of biking friends to make sure we were all happy!

United StatesI wasn't able to eat breakfast here as I have food allergies and there were no options for me. I would just include a little more, perhaps some hard-boiled eggs and fruit. To be fair, I didn't go in for breakfast after the proprietor told me it was cereal and milk, and coffee. So, there may have been more, but that's all I was told about. It is nice that those things are offered for other people.
The room was very nice. The main room was updated with newer decor. It had very useful amenities such as a decent size small refrigerator and freezer and a microwave. There was a nice TV and, if needed, there were hookups for a computer. WiFi was fast and allowed me to get necessary work done. The bathroom was very cute with vintage tiles and formica counters. I also loved the vintage room keychain. The staff was extremely friendly.

No breakfast, but they told me I could come into the lobby in the morning for coffee. McDonald's is right next door, so no problem. Quiet, very clean motel. Friendly staff. Have stayed here before without any problems at all, and would stay here again.

United StatesThe window of my rental car had been written-on with something white. I needed it cleaned before returning it. After checking out, I saw your cleaning crew at my room. I spun around back to the room, described the dilemma, and the gentleman used a rag and some cleaning supplies to completely remove the markings. Excellent, friendly, helpful, and unusual service. Kudos to him.
The breakfast was coffee and sugared cereal only. Not my choice - - just had the coffee. The room was clean and felt secure.

United StatesDefinitly needed a coffee maker. Or have coffee in the office readily available. Even if it's instant. For those who arrive later and have to sleep past nine.. There is a McDonald's across the street but I like my morning coffee before I have to dress to start my day. Also booked for 3 people at a higher price but couldn't get the lower priced amount when it was just the two of us. 😒
I liked that we had the room separate in the back of the hotel. Beds were comfortable. Room was cleaned.
