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 KingdomWishing the room had a view like the breakfast and dining room. You can easily walk to the Monterey Aquarium, which is unfortunately overrated....
4 o'clock treats were very nice surprise. Breakfast was slightly different every day and very tasty! Excellent location, we enjoyed the walks along the seafront and the nearby restaurants in the village. Sea otters can be seen right in front.

United StatesSuch a cute place! They had a cheese platter ready for us and baked brownies and cookies which were delicious. The room was so spacious, clean, and comfortable. The location is perfect. Breakfast in the morning was great. We absolutely loved this stay and I am already planning on coming back for when my sister visits.

The staff was incredibly kind and attentive, making us feel right at home. Every detail was thoughtful—truly a peaceful, unforgettable escape. We can’t wait to return!

United StatesIt was a little tough to control the temperature in the room, but we eventually found an equilibrium that worked for us.
Beautiful old inn right on the ocean, with amazing views and a great location. The coastal trail is right out the front door, and you can easily walk to shops, restaurants and the aquarium. The staff was super friendly and helpful, the room was lovely and clean, and breakfast was tasty. They also do a wine and cheese every afternoon, have homemade cookies every evening, and have bikes available if you want to go for a ride. All in all, a great place and we will be back.

United StatesThe street was a little crowded, but we were still able to park. And we did have noisy neighbors upstairs that everytime they walked you would hear it creeking on our ceiling. We also didn't like that kids were allowed, but they were quiet enough.
We loved the scenery, and how close the ocean was to our room. We also liked that there were a ton of restaurants nearby. The rooms were updated, instead of the old Victorian houses that have old school furnishings. The breakfast was nice.

Everything about the hotel was amazing! The breakfast was just delicious and to come home from a long day of walking to find fresh cookies and a meat and cheese tray was such a surprise! The room was very spacious and the view was wonderful. We loved listening to the waves crash against the shore.

United StatesThey really did such a great job in the hospitality department that I only can think of one or two things to improve upon. The bed was too hard for my taste. One other thing I think could benefit the experience is a more readily available history of the house. They did have a couple of short write ups on two of its owners, the first being the man who built it and then another of the current owner. We had to ask. It would be a nice touch to have something put together and available without asking. The staff also didn't seem to know much about the history of the house.
We loved our stay. Traveling from Oakdale CA we stopped and hiked in The Pinnacles before checking in at the Inn in Pacific Grove. When we arrived at the Inn we were unexpectedly treated to wine and cheese with a wonderful view of the ocean from the Inn's dining room. Such a lovely way to start our stay after exerting ourselves hiking. It was refreshing. We also enjoyed the safety of the area and were comfortable enough to walk to and from dinner after sunset...joyously anticipating cookies and coffee upon our return. The Inn is about a 10 minute walk from Monterey Bay Aquarium and Cannery Row. If I could describe the environment of the Inn and the neighborhood it rests in with one word it would be RESTORATIVE.

United StatesDidn't realize that the larger room (with sitting area/living room) would be in a separate building with external staircase. The heating was old-school manual in-room controlled. Noisy when running and slightly smelly.
Breakfast was very nice. There was a warm egg dish each morning and fresh-baked treats (banana bread or scone) as well as muesli, yogurt, fresh fruit, bread and coffee/tea. In the afternoon there was a happy hour with a house white/red some crackers and cheese and/or cookies. The living spaces were light, bright and comfortable. Bathroom was spacious. Bed was comfortable. Dining room had beautiful views of the ocean across the street.
