How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewEvo is in a great location in Tahoe City - walking distance from the beach and all of the restaurants/stores. The staff was nice. Free coffee till 11 AM - and very good! We were able to rent ebikes from them, which was very easy. We had a nice view of the lake, a block away!
The designer is said to be a "minimalist." With that in mind, the room lacked basic necessities. There was no dresser to put your clothes in. We were there for 5 days and had to live out of our luggage. The closet had no door on it. There were no washcloths in the bathroom. Even the bedside tables were these inexpensive, plastic shelves. I felt like I was sleeping in an Ikea bedroom display. Also, our curtain rod was broken. We told the staff, but no one came to fix it. And, when we asked for more hangars because there was no dresser, we only got 2 hangars delivered. And, when we asked for washclothes - since there were none in the bathroom - we got 2 delivered, but when we used them, then had the room cleaned, they did not replace them. Finally, it's noisy at night. The layout of the parking lot and hotel ensures that if you are on the parking lot side, you will hear every late-nighter walking, talking, and yelling to their car. You will also hear the restaurant workers yelling at the bear who likes to eat out of the garbage!
Thank you very much for your in-depth feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed your stay, despite a few bumps in the road. We'll definitely be passing your feedback along to our management team. We appreciate you staying with us, and we hope to see you again.

Verified reviewLocation is the highlight of this hotel directly across from the lake and in the thick of town. Nice firepit and fun seats out front. Dog friendly and near to the dog park.
Very small room and bathroom in an old motor inn, which they have tried to modernize but it still feels old. The price is too high for this small, basic room. No breakfast or even any snacks.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We're happy to hear that you loved the property and location, but we're sorry to hear that the room fell a bit short of your expectations. We value your feedback, and we do hope you'll give us another shot in the future. Cheers!

Verified reviewThe staff at Surf shop could not have been nicer or more accommodating. The food there was delicious. Particularly loved the iced tea. We enjoyed one of the most incredible pink sunsets I’ve ever seen, seated in front of the restaurant, right across the street, and a full moon. We swang from the basket seats in front of a roaring fire. The room was comfortable, we really liked the bed and the golf course view.
Room was a bit small. Overhead light was on a timer and we couldn’t walk around the room without it coming on.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We're thrilled to hear that you loved our property and restaurant! We're sorry the room lighting and size was a bit of a miss for you, we'll pass that along to our management team to consider when we're making improvements over time. We hope to see you again soon.
