Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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 States of AmericaI wish coffee was available throughout the whole day.
Love that it was right on the river, I had nice porch swings on the side for you to be able to sit and watch and enjoy the tubers coming down the river. Great location for walking to get to the shops. It was really nice check out was 11 but you were allowed to stay parked at the hotel until midnight without having to go find somewhere to park to enjoy walking through the town before leaving. Room was really clean and updated. Had plenty of channels to watch on TV after spending the evening in town.

United States of AmericaWe could hear the people in the room above us walking around & at times it was very annoying. We could also hear the vehicles in the parking lot & the motors (& motorcycles) being revved up was not pleasant 1st thing in the morning.
The location was perfect, in the middle of everything & right on the river, so it still felt secluded. Comfy bed. The staff was nice & helpful. The room was clean & spacious (it had a musty smell when we 1st arrived, probably because it was right next to the river, but we lit a scented candle & that helped)

United States of AmericaThe bathroom floor was dirty and the sink drain was so slow that it was hard to rinse it properly after brushing teeth. The first room we were assigned, the toilet needed 20-30 minutes to fill up so it would flush again.
I loved the location and swings by the river.

United States of AmericaTown basicly shuts down for night at 9pm
Place met and surpassed expectations. Room was clean, staff friendly, and location was excellent. Bed was comfortble.. Breakfast was adequate, and better than most. Only low points were the dirty grills, and trash by the river. The coffee in the room was pretty bad...thin and bitter. I wish that they would have a coffee dispenser in the lobby for those of us that like a cup after, and before the breakfast hours of 7 to 10am.

United States of AmericaBreakfast was very “light” and, as mentioned, there is no elevator to second-floor rooms.
This property location next to a fast-flowing river and in walking distance to downtown shops and restaurants is unbeatable. Most rooms have a riber view, even the ones on the (elevated) first floor, where we stayed as there is no elevator. Our room was comfy and so was the mattress
