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 reviewVery clean, comfortable bed, friendly staff, convenient motel layout, location is convenient enough.
Only complaint is that breakfast should always have some kind of meat available, like bacon or sausage.

Verified reviewI liked the price and the location. The staff were friendly.
I didn't even try to go to their breakfast because it was lacking. The rooms are very small and the bathroom is tight for two people. I had no trouble sleeping, but my partner said the floor was more comfortable.

The room had an unpleasant smell, and in the morning I noticed stains on the bed sheets, though it was too late to request a change as we were only there for one night. The breakfast could use improvement, as some of the fruit was overripe and the coffee was not fresh. They charged more than Hilton in the city center in Ithaca. Very disappointed

Verified reviewThe rooms were spacious, well appointed and maintained. It was a pleasant surprise, as the exterior is a pretty standard, older looking roadside motel. There was a simple but nice breakfast spread available every morning, and the employees were attentive and polite. The weekend I booked was college move-in time, so the prices were elevated, but normal rates are very reasonable, so we will definitely return.
The parking lot was well lit at night, but I prefer a darker setting and the curtains didn’t keep out all of the light.

Verified reviewThe exterior of the motel is typical for this type of motel, but we were pleasantly surprised by the interior. The room was surprisingly large and clean. Beds and pillows were very comfortable. It has everything you need for a stay. Motel is located outside the city, but it is still close enough to explore the area. We also liked that it is pet friendly motel.

Verified reviewI love that it was quiet and family owned. The rooms were perfect size for my small family. It had everything that we needed and was incredibly clean and updated. I especially noticed that the towels were very soft. Everyone who worked there was very friendly. I love supporting family owned businesses.
