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 StatesSteps to room are brick, too steep, and wonky - they would not be considered to code now. Doors do not have an added security latch at the top, and the door key was sticky. Carpet smelled of solvent and interior door mat was still wet. Furnishings are very dated but functional. Windows need to be replaced with triple panes. Lots of exterior noise. Parking lot lighting at night is atrocious (think MLB stadium bright), which required rigging the black out curtains, and it never quite worked, so room was not dark enough. The bathroom is tiny, but functional. Shower is very dated with a significant step up, very slippery interior, and there was no bath mat provided. We had to use a towel on the floor to provide some traction. First shower had multiple unpleasant temperature variants. 2nd was better - I’d recommend individual room on-demand water heaters or similar. Bathroom window has no screen and needs to be updated. For having two queen beds, the room should have been furnished with enough towels for a family of four - they provided only two sets. Refrigerator and wall heater are loud, and the heater pilot runs 24/7. Fridge cycles too much. I would update rooms with quieter mini-splits. TV and remote worked. The room has a table and two chairs, but no easy-to-access wall outlets and charging ports.
It’s centrally located and there was plenty of parking. Bed was comfortable, but not enough pillows.

United StatesNo AC and barely any hot water from the shower
Stayed for Monterey Car Week. Decent location by some fast food places, corner store next door, dispensaries nearby, very basic old school rooms and physical keys. Booked 3 weeks before car week at $300 so pretty good deal compared to $900 for a single night at the Motel 6 for the event dates!

United StatesHot water was not that hot. We didn’t have to turn on the cold tap during our showers. Not that big a deal for us.
Very convenient for our purposes ( a visit to a grandkid at Cal State). Value for the money. A throw back to when all travel motels looked like this. It’s been recently renovated, so it’s very clean. Very easy in and out compared to the larger chains in the area. Big plus is supporting a small family business. Check out the old school tiled shower!

United StatesIt's a motel essentially, so it seemed a little unsafe because of the open courtyard. But that's with all motels. Only other issue was people were smoking despite the no smoking signs. Not a big deal because I couldn't smell it.
Good service, clean, and things worked for the most part. The bathroom door seemed warped and was a little hard to close. I locked my key in the room, and the lady was very nice about it and let me keep the spare.

United StatesThe rooms could use some updating, but we were comfortable and had no complaints.
The staff was friendly and helpful, and the room was very spacious! It was also spotlessly clean, and the beds were comfy. The hotel is in a good location, only a few minutes' driving distance to the Monterey Bay Aquarium, our main destination that weekend. There are also restaurants and shopping nearby.

GermanyThe interior is somewhat aged and what the bedroom has of enough space the bathroom has not. These however, are trivia.
I really like the room's size: enough space for four and corresponding luggage so that we never had to step over things. Really comfy. Also the beds were truly queen size. Even a tall European like me fit comfortably in with enough space above and below.

United StatesThe only thing I didn't like was that the mattresses were a bit too firm for my liking. I woke up with a little sore on my lower back. But aside from that, everything was great. Loved that the TV had decent premium movie channels.
Room was clean and no fowl odor was present. Staff was very friendly and accommodated me with anything I requested.
