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.).

United StatesSoap by the bathroom sink would have been nice, I had to go ask for some. Shower bottles of shampoo etc were low and ran out. I had to go ask for that stuff too. The whole place seemed sort of run down, clean but it was obvious this is an old building. Could have used more hooks in the bathroom for towel hanging.
Our room was in an area where it was very quiet at night. Breakfast offerings were okay. Staff was very good, nice and polite. Helpful too. The water was nice and hot.

United StatesMy kids really wanted to go swimming however the pool which is normally heated was freezing cold and dirty and the hot tub was just as cold as the pool. The breakfast was so sad it contained bagels yogurt and apple juice that was it.
I like the guy who helped me at the front desk. He did everything he could to make sure I got the room I was supposed to have.

United StatesThe main complaint I have was the jets in the hot tub didn’t work. The water was nice and warm but no air coming from the jets. The wall socket in between the beds for the lamp had no cover on it. Some of the drawers on the furniture were missing knobs or handles.
Breakfast was ok. I thought there would be a little more variety in the fruits like bananas and maybe some scrambled eggs and meat. The pictures of the breakfast setup online looked like you may have had that type of thing in the past.

United StatesVery welcoming staff at check-in, very pleasant and eager to answer any questions. Convenient location very close to the Route 101 exit, with a large range of restaurants to choose from for dinner, lunch or breakfast. No thrills, very basic good for 1 night and move onwards to next location.

United StatesRestroom smelled like poo but was clean? There was a hair clip on the lamp from previous guest. So the room was not thoroughly cleaned prior. Main reason for selecting this location was the expected breakfast. Photos do not show actual breakfast. Nothing hot. No milk. Paid a little more compared to other hotels and was very disappointed.
Beds were comfortable.

United StatesWhen checking in, they surprised me with a $100 refundable damage fee. I had my mom's credit card which they took to check in, but refused to take for the $100 fee claiming she had to be there. I called my mom and she still refused. She was willing to strand me in that town for a $100 fee? I had to call friends I was meeting with to pay the $100 fee. Thanks Laurel Inn and Booking.com for embarrassing me on my trip. Booking.com for not advising of such a fee and Laurel Inn for embarrassing me. Will never return.
