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.).

Verified reviewI love the cleanliness and proximity to everything there is to do. The owner is very personable and does a good job at recommending must see areas. The AC is nice and cold. The beds are firm, my favorite.

Verified reviewThe historic nature of the hotel. Very nice staff. Great location just off the highway, but right on the Main Street.
Windows in the bedroom could have done with a clean, and there was an overflowing ash tray on the balcony.

Verified reviewVery good stay at this hotel. Very big room with extra thick carpet. At the end of Williams, but it’s small city so everywhere is close.
The bed was not as hard as in other places but it was not a big issue.

Verified reviewWe had a extremely disappointing Experience with Subpar Service and Lack of Amenities Unfortunately, my stay at this establishment was far from satisfactory. From the outset, the experience was plagued by numerous issues, including poor management, lack of amenities, and a suboptimal location. The room itself was lacking basic conveniences, and one of the most significant issues was the non-functioning smoke detector, which emitted a constant beeping due to a dead battery. I immediately contacted the management for assistance, but my attempts to resolve the issue were met with a complete lack of urgency. Despite multiple phone calls and messages through Booking.com, I received no response until after several follow-ups. When management did respond, it was with minimal professionalism. A staff member was sent to address the issue, but unfortunately, her response was dismissive and unhelpful. The smoke detector was taken from our room, but it was never returned, and the issue remained unresolved. In addition to the smoke detector issue, the overall security of the room was concerning. The door appeared to be easily accessible from the outside with just a credit card, raising serious safety concerns. Moreover, the room amenities were below expectations. For example, we were given a single bottle of shampoo and conditioner to share, which is hardly adequate for two guests. The property itself was disappointing, with no notable amenities such as a pool or a proper relaxation area. The only seating available was next to the door of the room, and the view was limited to the parking lot. What was most alarming, however, was the management's indifference to guest concerns. Not only was the office unmanned during late hours, but there was also no after-hours assistance available in the event of an emergency. I was left frustrated with the lack of communication, especially considering that even messages through the booking platform went unanswered for an extended period.
There was nothing to like about this establishment how could there be after what we experienced 😡👎

Verified reviewClean, well priced.
The owner was sleeping in a back room when I arrived and there was no one present at the front desk to check me in. I arrived at night and I had to get another guest’s help to wake him up just so I could get the key to my room.

Verified reviewI can't think of a single thing about this motel stay that did not exceed our expectations. The motel offered us a wonderful and comfortable space to unwind after the day's activities. Katherine was the most gracious and helpful concierge clerk ever!
Nothing, it was all great!
