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 reviewThe room was exceptionally clean with a kitchenette. Courteous staff and cozy rooms. The room setup was ideal for a family getaway. .
The complimentary breakfast was great, although we seemed to have missed most of it, as there was a team of young baseball players who had visited, so it was expected.

Verified reviewLocation, breakfast, clean
We booked a room with two queens and a full bath. We got a call asking us to switch to a comparable room with one queen. The price would not change. The room was actually one to accommodate special needs guests. The bathroom was large but no vanity and only a shower with a curtain that didn’t reach the floor. Water overflowed all over the floor for a mess and a slip hazard. Also no hair dryer even though listed on the amenities. I discussed with the front desk but offered no compensation.

Verified reviewThe bed and pillows were comfortable. The facility was a small suite with a kitchenette. Our key didn't work at first, and the lady at reception was very helpful and pleasant.
They missed cleaning the toilet seat. My husband said there was urine on it when he used it the first time, so he had to clean it himself. There were a few chunks of fuzz on the carpeting that the vacuum cleaner missed.

Verified reviewLocation was near restaurants and stores.
Ants in my room, Jessica, the staff at the facility was condescending. I asked to cancel my room to go somewhere else because of the ant infestation and they never got back to me but went in my room to spray a lethal amount of bug spray that made my allergies and asthma flared and they sprayed the spray all over our belonging. I had to open the windows on a 90+ day to try and air the room out but didnt help as they also didn't have a vent in the bathroom. Asked to get a refund again to only find out everywhere else was booked at that time and I felt that was intentional except their sister site that has reviews on drug use at the sites etc. Ended up packing up and going back home and having to drive back the next day. Also the "sofa bed" is an ikea futon which had no bedding.

Verified reviewThe staff was superb! Great customer service! It was a very hot weekend, but our room (and the facility) was very comfortable and cool. Breakfast was good. It was the perfect place for us to stay at!
The only thing we didn't like was during our first night, the smoke detector randomly sounded at 5:14am and then again an hour later. It beeped randomly during the day, and we alerted staff; they replaced the battery, and it was fine the rest of the weekend.

Verified reviewThe staff was wonderful. The breakfast was very good. Very clean hotel. Housekeeping personal were very kind and helpful. We highly recommend this place RiverHills Hotel. Close to the mall and restaurants.
Other guests that let their children run up and down the halls at 10pm. I told them to stop because people are sleeping, the parents were right there. Bummed that the pool wasn't opened.
