Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United States of AmericaThere was nothing we didn’t like!
They didn’t offer a breakfast, but coffee was available. The location was perfect, being close to the highway.

United States of AmericaI honestly can say there was nothing that I didn't like! The motel service exceeded my expectations and it was a joy chatting with the owners!
Great Owners! These are the kind of folks to support for local business. The communication was great, the check in and check out was seamless. The rooms were immaculate; the vibe is low key; mixed with a retro and down to earth feel. Location is great to get to any place in the area!

United States of AmericaI can’t complain since they went out of their way to accommodate my situation. Bookings should make it more apparent that the have a restricted pet policy.
I didn’t read part about contacting hotel about pets prior to arrival. They have dedicated pet rooms and all were taken. They however gave me a room that was of lesser quality but all I need was a place to sleep so I appreciate them not just sending me away. For the price, it was great! Their new rooms appeared to be very nice, but don’t allow pets. I’d stay there again during my travels.

United States of AmericaWe could only stay 2 nights!
We watched the reality show, "Crappie Lake," and one of our reasons to stay in Benton, IL. Watch it, and you will know what I am talking about. Our hosts, Akash and Hiral, owners, are so helpful and were part of the reality show. They are celebs in their own right. We had so much fun exploring Benton and all the places Luann and Sonja featured on "Crappie Lake." All, so much fun!

United States of AmericaIt’s not overly important but soaps/body wash could have been better.
The owner is the most hospitable person I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting-and I’ve met a lot of hotel staff in my years. The beds and pillows are top notch and the room/bathroom were extremely clean. This is an old refurbished motel and has kept the old charm while still being very comfortable

United States of AmericaThe bathroom was very cold. To be fair, the night I stayed, the temp was in the single digits and the bathroom floors were tiled and no heater in the bathroom to warm the tiles.
The motel was very easy to find and the room was VERY clean and comfortable with a mini frig and microwave and large tv. The owner, Akash, was very personable. He got ahold of me after I checked out to let me know I had left something behind in the room and was able to retrieve the item before I left town.

The owners of the establishment are very cordial and kind. They helped me with several other questions and even booked a driver for a long distance trip. I recommend staying at the Benton Motel. Very well located within the city, close to banks, restaurants and other facilities.

United States of AmericaThe motel was very comfortable and clean and in a great location right outside of a quaint little town. The owners were so very polite, kind, and greeted us promptly upon our arrival for check-in. They made it clear they wanted to ensure our stay at their property met our expectations and if it didn’t ask us to let them know. They are working diligently making improvements and adding additional capacity to their motel. You won’t be disappointed with your stay at this location. When we pass through the area again, we will definitely patronize this family owned business.

Great value especially for the price. Perfect for our road trip - right off the highway but no car noise. Comfortable beds. We felt safe and did not feel worried about our car which is filled with road trip stuff.
