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 StatesI didn’t like that I couldn’t get a rollaway bed. I didn’t know that I had to reserve one prior to my arrival. I was told I could request one when I arrived but they were all taken.
Loved the spacious room.

United StatesI stayed at the Nittany Lion Inn a couple weeks ago as well. On last trip I stayed in a room with King bed. The bed was extremely, extremely comfortable. I slept so well! This time I stayed in Room 338. I have to say I was disappointed this time with the comfort of the beds. I stayed in a handicapped room with 2 queens. My Mom is 86 and needed the handicapped options. My bed had a rattle ever time you moved. My Mom and I both commented that our mattresses seemed to tilt outwards; she noted she was afraid she would fall out. The toilet seat also was loose and moved (dangerous for someone who mobility challenges). Everything else great, but I hoped they replace the mattresses in those rooms. They were not like my stay a couple weeks ago which was such a comfortable mattress! Staff and facilities just lovely though. Our waitress for dinner was amazing. Can’t beat the convenience of location.
This is my second stay at Nittany Lion Inn. Just a beautiful renovation

United StatesWe tried to eat breakfast, but unfortunately you were short staffed, and we were basically turned away at the door. I do think you should have been more prepared on a game day. With that said, I realize that things sometimes happen that are out of your control, I was just disappointed, not to be able to eat on site.
It is a beautiful, first class, property, that did not disappoint! Everyone we encountered was kind and helpful. We hope to stay with you again!

IndiaThere is no free parking. Self parking is in the nearby garage and the valet parking is expensive for such a place. They should have more staff at front-desk. Most times there was a wait. The AC was very loud.
This is a gorgeous hotel with an old world charm. It seemed to have been remodeled recently. We were here to drop our daughter and the location is so convenient. Our room was nice, quite spacious and clean. The walk-in shower is a nice change from those useless tubs most old hotels have. The gym has all new equipment and was not crowded at all. There were a lot of seating areas and lounges all over the hotel. We stayed in room # 330 and the water fountain and the ice machine were right in front of our room. Wifi was decent. TV has a bouquet of channels and the OTT apps.

United StatesThe shower water pressure was terrible. After all the expense of the renovations you cannot provide normal water pressure for a shower? I hope it was not restricted for some silly "conservation" initiative. I would not stay there again when I can go somewhere else and get normal shower.
Renovations well well done, everything was beautiful.
