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.).

Well upon checking into the room I saw several roaches climbing the walls and a lit cigarette left on the night stand which I'm assuming was from house keeping. This place is a complete dump! Honestly it needs to bulldozed over and rebuilt from the ground up! Upon seeing all the problems with the room I immediately went back to the front desk and showed them the videos (which I will include in this review) that we had took from the room. They agreed that we should be refunded in full for our booking. Upon trying to recover my refund they then stated that since they offered us another room that they would not issue a refund! Booking.com has stepped in and is trying to get me a partial refund as we speak. I strongly advise you to simply stay in your car if this is your only option. I booked another room immediately at the sleep in about 15 minutes from this location for 3 dollars less and was completely satisfied with the facility. I explained my situation and what had happened and she named the econologdge hotel before it could even roll off my tongue. Apparently this is an ongoing situation with this establishment. Do not fall victim to this facility as I did. Avoid this experience and save yourself the frustration, time, effort and money. These people are nothing less than liars, thieves, and slum lords! Unfortunately I can not load videos on this review so I screen shot some of the frames. As you can see there's even a roach in the refrigerator.

A crack den would have been a better situation. I’ve never seen anything as bad as this place. Not even in movies.

The staff were completely rude due to issues with payment of card and having issues with customer service trying to correct the issue and then got very rude with me asking me to leave property stating I had no reservations and I did but the payment option through affirm had issues making payment and then because I didn't leave property quick enough even though I was on foot they called the cops for absolutely no reason. The staff did not listen when speaking over phone to verify information repeatedly had to repeat and still stated things incorrectly. Establishment is filthy and had bugs and bed bugs and when brought to owners attention acted like they did not care.

This place has black mold, stained sheets and blankets, smelled like weed in the halls and a mouse ran in my room. I left after two hours fearing I was going to get robbed on my way to my truck. Im praying I didn't get bed bugs from that place. No exaggeration it was awful and needs to get shut down
