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 StatesFriday night, there was a softball team on our floor and they were very loud, until very late. A bunch of girls screaming and giggling until midnight was way too long. We were there for a volleyball tournament which our team took very seriously, so it was tough for my daughter to get sleep with the noise. Saturday during the day, there was a dog barking on and off all day. The website says no pets, only service animals. If a service animal was needed, it would have been with the people or it would have been trained better. The poor dog was in the room much of the day by itself.
Rooms were very clean and spacious. Staff was friendly. The whole hotel was very clean.

United StatesBreakfast. We are late risers and the 6 to 9 breakfast is just a little too early for us when traveling. Wish it could have lasted till 10 so we could sleep in. The outlets in the lamps are loose and need fixed.
Great breakfast. Nice pool area. Comfy rooms. The booking was not done right online so there was a mix up at check in. The ladies at the front desk did everything they could to make sure our stay was good. No issues. Not their fault.

United StatesThere was nothing I wasn't pleased with!
The staff was absolutely amazing! We walked through the front door and was greeted with a friendly smile which made our drive of 4 hours worth it! The cleanliness of the lobby and aroma of the atmosphere was definitely noticed!! The room was perfect! Breakfast was fabulous with a wonderful selection to choose from and welcoming dining area to enjoy your meal. We enjoyed our stay so much we made sure to stay again when we traveled back home and we were greeted again with a smile. The 2nd time we had a king suite and it was just as wonderful! The fact that the T.V. greeted me when I turned it on, made me smile! Would HIGHLY recommend this hotel!!

United StatesThe pool water needed to be allot warmer... Definitely.
We loved everything! The size of the rooms-omg, the shower, the bed was comfy. The introduction on the TV in my own name... That was cool. Even my 78 yr old dad noticed that lol. My 75 yr old mom loved the coffee pots in our rooms lol. She was also impressed with the full size ironing board in the fancy closet. The price was good with using Booking.com. I will be looking for these hotels in future travels! Thank you!

United StatesWe had 3 families booked to stay at this hotel, I booked 2 rooms and the other family with 2 small children booked a room the same time I did. We arrived about 530pm to check in. I was able to check in and get my 2 rooms, other family was told that they didnt have a room for her, they over booked. even though a confirmation number was given. No supervisor on duty to help with the situation. While at the front desk a man checked out, how convenient, when asked if there was someone to clean the room that was just checked out of so the family could stay in the same hotel as the rest of us, we were told my front desk they couldn't do that. Why not? Bc their not housekeeping? It doesnt take much to strip a bed and wipe things down. Bad customer service with on duty staff. Little kids upset, just wanted to stay, swim, have fun after attending the Iowa State Fair- this happened. Went next door to another hotel, that lady was super helpful, gave us good rates and we were able to get them a room next door. Then brought them back Fairfield to swim. Fairfield needs to do some cross training or something during busy times like the Iowa State Fair. No reason for any of this. And train their staff about good customer service. Saw other reviews about the front desk staff not being friendly either. Bad attitudes non accommodating is huge in the custom service industry. Hotel building was fine, rooms were clean. Pull out couch was like sleeping on a prison mat. Didnt eat the breakfast. Went to the Machine Shed! Also in room 210 there's a screw hanging out of the door frame, door didnt really close the best- and of course when checking out to report it- no front desk staff there. Another guy had been standing there waiting to check out for about 10 minutes before me- said screw it, threw keys down on the desk and walked out.
