How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

We had an issue with Door Dash attempting to deliver food to the Inn on the Riverwalk. We ended up having to go pick up the food.
We like the quiet that the place offered and the view of the San Ant River. The staff was especially friendly and very welcoming to us when we first arrived and throughout our stay. The breakfast each day was delicious. We walked along the river and even had lunch at the Texas River Bar, which was absolutely delicious. We're planning on coming back in October.

The bathroom was a little small and it was kind of hard to find a spot to plug in a flat iron to get ready in the morning.
The location was perfect. Super close to the city center and it was an easy walk to get downtown. The staff was fantastic. The room was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

The house outside could use a new coat of paint and a second chair in our room would have been also nice for the evenings. Everything else was very clean and very, very comfy with nice pictures, and other things. It felt like someones home and not a hotel.
We had a wonderful time at the Inn. The breakfast was very good and hand made just in time for every traveler. The person was very, very nice and worked very hard to please all guests. We normally get up early and she was already there at 6am to start preparing for the break-fast at 8:30. The room was very cozy though a second chair would have been nice. But on the other hand, there were plenty of chairs on the porch outside and I spent quite a bit of time there since it was so quiet and nice outside. The owner stopped by every morning during breakfast and talked with everyone which was also a very nice touch.

When you approach for the first time, you may think you have made a bad choice to stay. The exterior looks uncared for and in desperate need of maintenance. (But persevere, this little hotel is a delight)
The friendliest place we have ever stayed! This relaxed friendliness caused the guests to be the same and breakfast became an enjoyable social event which included the whole room. Oh and breakfast was freshly cooked for you and again one of the best. Our bathroom looked quite new. The place in general was old, all the furniture is old and rickety but it is spotlessly clean.

the fact I was charged 98.00 to park infront of the house is stayed at, was not aware of this fee until I checked in. The breakfast was lacking. The room I got was not comfortable, the bed was not comfortable, the room was HOT. and humid. I got a fan to help piah the air around from unit that was below the window (like you'd see in motel rooms) the bathroom is extremely small, the house is very old and I did not know it would be as hard to be below other guest. I kept being woken up by them scooting or slamming items on the floor. Very tight enterance to the door for the room. Yes, I booked through a 3rd party however that does not mean I should have a disappointing experience at a location I book a stay at. the area of the rover this is located is not where you want to be if you're wanting to enjoy the river walk. That was the whole reason I booked that location for my stay. Was greatly disappointed in the area.

Disappointed in the breakfast, no choice and the first morning there was no gluten free bread. No gluten free cereals either. Portions small. This was the most disappointing part. AC in the room was noisy but necessary!
Location and the quirkiness of the building. Good parking available as well. Clean room.
