Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do 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 or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

It is an older property with dated furnishings, but it was clean and quaint. The restaurant was very good, and reasonably priced. The internet worked pretty well, and I rather enjoyed the lack of cell signal. The WIFI was there if I really needed to connect. We sat on the small lanai with a beautiful view drinking wine we got from the on-site store. It was as perfect as you can get.

Wifi never worked. We could never watch tv the whole time we were there!! After riding a motorcycle all day it would’ve been nice to rest n watch tv at night or sit on balcony but the view was awful so couldn’t do that either. There was ONE microwave for the entire building to use which was just weird. No paper towels or anything by it so I had to go find a bathroom to get a paper towel to use. Then we were charged more than what the online booking.com stated… if anything something should’ve been deducted!!
Staff was always very nice! Store n restaurant on property was awesome. Food was awesome! Ride to location was pretty. We arrived late at night and when we called they even came to different location on property to meet us to show us where to go to check in. Great people!

We had tile flooring in the room throughout and it made it very chilly in the room and damp feeling, it felt damp in the bedding and towels but I think it’s the area and the temp in the room but I didn’t sleep very comfortable.

My only complaint is our room didn't have a microwave. We bought stuff from the general store because we got there kinda late and everything was already closed and we had to use the microwave at the store because the room didn't have one.
Enjoyed our stay. Breakfast at the restaurant was good. Beautiful view of the mountains from the restaurant.

Very limited on places to eat went down to the lodge restaurant about 30 minutes after they opened and there was a line out the front door. Went back to the room got packed and loaded up to go went back to the restaurant and there was still a line out the front door. Went down to the general store thought might find a biscuit or a donut. Nope! Guy said they had some breakfast at the gas station😂 They had a menu with a sausage or bacon egg and cheese for $5 then proceeded to put a store bought prepackaged breakfast sandwich in the microwave. I respectfully declined 😥
Location is an amazing place to visit . The cantina had very good food we really enjoyed our meal.

We came for the 4th of July, for one night. The staff is great, Elvis and the fireworks were awesome . The biggest problem was the room, the sink was leaking, toilet was running continuously, all of the lamps were unplugged so, had to move bed to plug them all back in, the door handle on the adjoining room door is broken, definitely not up to $200 a night standard. Also when we returned from the awesome fireworks there were 8 motorcycles parked parked in front of our room so, had to park away from our room.
Had lunch when we arrived while waiting for our room, food was good staff is great

Facilities are nice if they were cared for.
