Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesThe power went off about 3am. This was an area wide outage and not the fault of the facility. But, I was surprised there was not a backup generator. My husband sleeps with a cpap, so he was unable to go back to sleep until after the power was restored which took about an hour.
The pool and hottub were wonderful perks! We also enjoyed sitting outside by the fire pit.

United StatesSee anove comments on shower...
Found a reference to this facility via Trip Advisor. It was the best price and highest rating for the location I needed for an overnight stay. Not being a chain hotel was also an enticement. VERY surprised at the facility upon arrival...the room sparkled clean and smelled the same. Everything worked as expected and the breakfast was by far the best free breakfast I've had with a hotel stay in years. I will make one suggestion...the hardness or softness of the hotel's water makes rinsing off the body wash supplied in the bath difficult...and the wash can make the floor of the shower slick. Friction strips are applied but could be increased.

The staff, Cameron, and then his mother the next morning were amazing! They were so hospitable, kind, and helpful! Whenever we passed them, they asked if they could help us. She offered to turn the outside fireplace on when we were sitting there with our coffee in the morning. It was a delight to stay there. Breakfast was excellent...there were so many choices!

United StatesThe fitness center is tiny. Treadmill, exercise bike and elliptical plus a single weight bench with a collection of dumbbells. Dumbbell collection was incomplete -- missing the 25 and 35 pounders as I recall. The water dispenser wasn't working and the disinfecting wipes were empty.
Complimentary breakfast was outstanding. Eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy, waffles, cereal, fruit, yogurt. Everything was spread across the lobby in an inviting manner. Staff was very helpful and friendly.
