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 StatesThe pool was (and probably still is) out of service. The one treadmill in the small gym doesn't work. The hotel is mildly dingy. It was probably quite nice at one time but has not been well maintained. The first room I got smelled like smoke so I asked to be moved. Then the night manager had to go to the dryer to get towels for me. I asked if they are short on staff or short on linens and she replied, "Both." I have seen properties like this before: the owner sucks out as much cash as possible while spending the minimum, and then sells it off to a new owner who does a full rehab. I'm guessing this place is about five years from losing its franchise and renting rooms by the hour or by the month.
The location is good, the price is reasonable for the quality of the property, and the staff is friendly. The breakfast consists of sausages, scrambled eggs, and warm biscuits, with the standard selection of pastries and fruits, plus the obligatory waffle maker. And a juice dispenser. This was a pleasant surprise in an otherwise middle-quality hotel.

United StatesIt looked like they had done some upgrades here and there as far as the rooms go but I would suggest new curtains, new tub and shower surround is definitely due for an upgrade and the toilet, side tables and alarm clock. There was an issue with the TV and the front desk did make me aware when I checked in.
The bed was very comfortable and surprisingly it was quite on the ground floor.

United StatesThe whole hotel had a dark feel to it. Everything looked worn out. The plaster in our bathroom was roughly patched, the walls needed painting. The doors were badly scratched. It just had a run down dark look to the room, hallway and welcoming area. The bed was saggy, and chairs in the room had a soiled worn look and feel. In general it needs a good refurbishment.
Our room was quiet. The person that checked us in was pleasant.

United StatesSure! Here’s an example of a positive 5/5 review for a 2-star hotel: ⸻ Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this AmericInn hotel after reading old reviews. They started the remodeling. For the price, it exceeded my expectations in many ways. The staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel welcome right from check-in. They were always available to help with any questions or requests. The room was simple but clean and comfortable. The room was well-maintained, which made for a restful night.The location was great, with easy access to public transport and lots of shops and cafes nearby. Free Wi-Fi worked perfectly, and I had no issues staying connected throughout my visit. It’s perfect for budget travelers who want a clean, friendly, and hassle-free place to stay. Highly recommend!
