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.).

Front door to office difficult to open with luggage (our room was on 2nd FL above office). We brought our own breakfast, so we did not utilize the hotel offerings, which was very basic cold cereals and bagels.
Clean room, comfortable bed. Nice size refrig (mini-plus). Our room seemed quite large compared to other hotels.

One Receptionist! AC struggled a little
The Hotel is lovely and well situated, with restaurants, shops and a Walmart close by. Room was nice and spacious and pool was good. The whole experience would have been great if not for one staff member. I arrived early (as I am the victim of travelling by bus) and encountered the RUDEST PERSON at a reception desk I have ever met! I acknowledged being early and said that I would be happy to wait or go for a walk. She made it quite clear that she did not want me "waiting in the Lobby while she was trying to do her work"!! Then, when I asked to keep my suitcase if I went for a walk for 3 hours I was advised twice that "she was not responsible for it" (whilst it was in a staff only accessible room). Wow!! When I returned after 3.00pm she gave me a ground room (which apparently are dearer) and saved me lugging my case upstairs (I assume there is no lift), as compensation for "making me walk around for 3 hours". Too late, damage done...... If you don't like your job, find a different one, preferably not dealing with people! So in short, the hotel is great and all the other staff were nice, I just hope she's off the day you check in!

There was no hand soap, had to use the tube of body wash to wash hands. They provided shampoo but no conditioner- very minimal accoutrements. They deactivate the key readers on the exterior side doors from 10pm-6am, we had a room close to the far side entrance and when we got back from sight seeing around 11 we couldn’t get in. I had to leave my hard of walking, elderly mother outside by the door while I walked back around to the front and through the hotel to let her in. And the curtains wouldn’t close all the way so a very bright sliver of light came in like a death ray to wake us up earlier than we wanted.
It was quiet. The staff was friendly. The room was clean.

Being an older hotel there were small issues that come with age that are to be expected. Towel holder in the room fell off and we told them it didn't need to be rehung while we were there. It was not a problem.
Staff went out of their way to insure we had everything we needed. We purchased charcoal to grill a steak on the grill by the pool and didn't think to get a lighter being nonsmokers we didn't have one. The lady at the front desk looked for a good 15 min. and found me one. Towels for the pool at the door going to the pool was nice and convenient. Breakfast was ample with the sausage egg and cheese Croissant, good selection of cereal along with other options. Convent location to stores and restaurants. Nice Putt Putt course across the street we walked to. We would stay there again.

Air conditioner stopped working after couple of nights. Altough a new room was offered, the new unit had a noisy AC unit and issues with the access card and door lock unit. It only worked like 50% of the time requiring to swipe the card multiple times. Breakfast options were limited.
Convenient location. Easy access to highway and many shops in the area. It's quiet and clean room.
