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.).

Didn't like changing rooms after the first night. Didn't like their listing implying beach was only several hundred feet away. While that may be true, the beach was no where in sight from any place on the hotel property. Breakfast was mediocre for the money. No pool. Need I say more?

United StatesBe aware that noise-wise, guests are very much at the mercy of their neighbors... like many hotels I guess. However the shared spaces are quite tight in the upstairs king rooms, meaning you hear the comings and goings of others very clearly. King rooms are upstairs and difficult for those with mobility impairments. Note that rooms don't have aircon - which wass an issue on warm evenings... however the hotel doesn't claim to have aircon, so it's a 'buyer beware' situation :)
Conveniently located off the main waterfront, the property is charming.

Well located for the price in the area. Free parking and breakfast a plus. Rooms small and need updating but fine. TV had to be reset and window shades broken. Note no air conditioning but ceiling fan which was fine.

United StatesThe parking... the parking is like a battlefield. We were lucky enough to be walking distance from State Street, so we barely used the car. But the parking spots are compact and there are few. Thankfully, we stayed during the middle of the week with not as many residents, but cannot imagine when at full capacity.
I loved our room. We got a suite that had an adorable set-up: including a small kitchen with a microwave and stove top. The living/bed space was spacious in our suite and included a desk for work if needed. My favorite place was the fireplace in front of the couch, made for great wine nights and relaxing. I enjoyed the free water and coffee located in the lobby.

United StatesThe toilet, we felt like I was in kinderga again. This bathroom could easily accommodate a chair height ADA toilet. Also, the tub didn't have enough slip resistant strips. It was very slippery and felt unsafe because the grab bar was not a good location for us old folks.
Had to make a day of arrival change. Both Booking.com and onsite staff were amazingly helpful and accommodating. The property was beautiful and in a great location. Will definitely stay again.

United StatesThe only downfall was that our room [#38] was over the alley to another hotel that apparently has laundry service scheduled at 420am. The truck noise and the worker moving large bins made for a startling and abrupt wake up that early. I suggest hotel management discuss this with the neighbor hotel management to schedule a later [after 7am] service.
Location, style of room and grounds. Very good views, comfortable, clean and accommodating. Wine and cheese from 5-7p was excellent and breakfast the next morning hit the spot with delicious pastries and coffee.

United StatesOur room was very small with just one small window opening to a walkway.
Breakfast: Delicious home baked blueberry muffins, tasty coffee, and nice array of options. The location was incredible, just a block from the harbor and walks on the beach. The architectural style is charming: red roof, white stucco, and lots of Mexican tile details. Parking was easy and convenient. Everything was compact and close together.
