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 StatesThere were no locks on the doors on both side entrances that lead to the rooms but I can't imagine much nonsense taking place in this town. It seemed a bit dirty inside the hallways but the room seemed fine. The breakfast was not too good, eggs were not real but that is becoming the norm sadly, but for the price, I figured shelling out for real eggs wouldn't have been too much to ask.
The location was great, I was going to Yosemite the next day and needed a place relatively close and it was. The clerk was very nice and so was the woman working the breakfast area.

United StatesThe remote didn’t work.
This is our second time staying at this hotel. Facility is clean and maintained. Breakfast was great, kids enjoyed making their own waffles. Staff was very friendly and did not ask questions as to why i was asking for more toilet paper and towels, we received them in minutes of asking. Great location, minutes from softball fields. There was an actual hand soap dispenser instead of a tiny bar of soap.

United StatesElevator was not in working condition and we could not get this room on the first floor which made it very difficult to get up and down the stairs. Paid over $200 for this room which did not meet our expectations especially with having to use the stairs. I could not recommend this service to anyone.
Room was tired and adequate but not upscale by any means. Breakfast was as expected and nothing special

Breakfast was excellent. Very friendly lady running the show at breakfast. Room clean and comfortable. Price was very reasonable given what I'd pay for similar in UK. Parking included as well. Used as base to get to Yossemite, 1hr 30min drive but please drive and scenic. Some good restaurants close by, in US that still means a drive.

United StatesThe heater was little noisy and can be toned down if possible.
The hotel staff Mechelle and kitchen staff Grant set the tone for this friendly place! The hotel is older, but rooms are large and comfortable. Very impressed with the breakfast, and especially Grant's sunny and cheerful greetings. The coffee/tea machine at front desk is a plus if you come in late and want to have something warm to drink. The location is convenient, close to downtown and restaurants. Will return!!!

NetherlandsThe breakfast room was simple and it was a typical American breakfast. The pool was a bit small. We were on the first floor and there was no elevator. The noise from the minifridge was loud.
The room was amazing, it was a suite with two bedrooms and all facilities. The shower was also really nice.

United StatesI called the front desk asking for an extra towel and toilet paper and the person who answered said they had no towel to give me but I can get toilet paper, the only thing is I would need to pick it up at front desk. Front desk was too far for me to walk to since my room was located in the very back of the property and it was 11pm. Luckily I had a clean travel towel in my bag. The elevator was inoperable. We didn’t like how this location was a two-night minimum and kind of pricey for it being a Best Western. I only needed it for Saturday night but decided to go ahead and book it for the two nights so I wouldn’t have to drive back and forth into town.
It was clean and located not too far from the venue. We liked the AC, since it was +110* outside. Our room was very spacious and clean.

United StatesWell the only problem we had was our pullout bed was dirty. The sheets were dirty . They forgot to check it when they cleaned the room. The bedroom smelled like urine for some reason. It's an older hotel so it smelt old.
It was very roomy the beds were very comfortable.
