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 AmericaTowels were thin. The room was small. The balcony overlooked... trash cans and a roof. The bedframe was huge and we constantly bumped our shins against it. There were no places to charge phones! There should be a place to charge phones on either side of the bed. Very disappointed.
Location was great. Front desk staff were nice.

United States of AmericaHad some problem with toilet, the pipe struck and no water came to tank, so cannot flush. Later, it recovered, but it seemed that a lot of stain came out of the pipe. The cold water pipe generate hummer-like noise when open to full. I solved myself to turn the shut-off value to a larger position. I think the stuff need to verify the valve setting regularly and do some regular plumbing maintenance. Not all guests has such engineering capability. The carpet was very dirty, I dropped some water to the carpet, when I used cloth to absorb it, the water become very, very dirty and cloth became black. The Wifi was broken for a whole day.
The hotel location is great, and common area is good. They provide luggage storage even for before and after the check-in/check-out. Although the shower room is small, but I love the smell of the gels.

United States of AmericaWe were on the 4th floor and there is only stairs. We only had backpacks so this really wasn’t an issue but it would have been challenging with a roller bag. Very expensive on a Friday night for a very basic hotel but served the purpose.
Excellent location, family room nice for a group of people.

United States of AmericaThe bunk bed deluxe was really small. I think they could have added a chair or desk so people didn't have to sit on the floor or the bed. I called booking.com to see if they could get me a bigger room but the hotel was more interested in charging me $75 + taxes for a slightly larger room than letting us use the larger room. We were already paying close to 320 for that small room and didn't want to pay another 100$ for another room
The hotel was close to the main town

It was close to everything, but all of Avalon is close to everything so that is a standard everywhere you stay.
