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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

United StatesIt's probably 100 years old, so the bathroom could use a little touch up, and be a bit cleaner.
Chris by the Sea is a little budget Motel that gives you just what you need, a clean bed, clean towels in the bathroom,, and a kitchenette, all at a great price. If you don't need all the fancy bells and whistles, it's a decent place to stay. They'll even play cards with you if you get bored!

The helpfulness and friendliness of the owners, the better than average amenities to enrich value of the usual micro/fridge motel unit (toaster, paper plates, plastic flatware sets), great fridge w/separate freezer section. Ease of access w/parking just outside unit also a plus for us ADA folks.

It was very comfortable and felt like we were staying in a little apartment. The walk to the beach only took a couple minutes.Will stay there again for sure.

United StatesIt was fine. It was pouring rain with wind during my stay but it was January out on the coast in Washington.
Was there for a conference in January. It had the best price compared to the others in the town. Interestingly I walked into the office, the manager said "Hello, welcome, watch out for bears in the area" He then told me about recent bear encounters in the town.

It was a nice quaint room. Not to far from the Ocean Shores. Single story so no noisy upstairs neighbors. The owners are very nice and an overall great experience.

United StatesFurnishings could use an update, but we knew this going in, and wanted to support a locally owned, mom-and-pop place. Bed wasn't terrible, but seemed like it might have a slight indentation in the middle. Overall, furnishings are basic. If you're looking for a reasonably priced place close to the beach, this does the job quite well.
Just a few minute walk from the beach! Very quiet location right on the edge of town--not too far from food options, but nice to not be right in the middle of everything. Owners were lovely and provided dinner recommendations.

United StatesThe bed was a little hard and there were flies in my room.
The room was a bit better than I expected, considering it was less expensive than most other rentals. My favorite things were that it was quiet, I was able to park right in front of my room (no stairs or elevators), very close to a beach access, near town, had a good size fridge, and a microwave. It even had a toaster...had I known I would have brought something to toast! I also really loved a decor item that spoke to my heart. The room was dated and no frills, but clean and all I needed for a weekend getaway by myself.
