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 staff were lovely.
The place is really tired. The carpets were worn, the hallways were frigid. The carpeted floors in our room were ice cold. The room and decor looked like they didn’t even try to update it or make it look welcoming. To charge over $225 a night for a room that looked like a bad in room from the 60’s? It was clean, but it was so drab and plain with really bad art. It didn’t feel like it was welcoming us into a vacation.

Verified reviewWe have been to Settlers many times during the years .. we love the atmosphere of the hotel… but now read below ….
Unfortunately Settlers has been going downhill. - the food used to be excellent and we always looked forward to having a special dinner there - and unfortunately the quality of the food has deteriorated- dinner was not great as it used to be - they also had a fixed price which was ridiculously high for low quality food and everything was basically Cajun style - not letting us know before -and breakfast was nothing special - - yes- we chose a room for the less expensive rate but we would expect the mattress not to be basically sinking. This was unacceptable! The room was fine - the mattress needs to be replaced We are not happy with the experience this time . It used to be a favorite place for us to go to.

Verified reviewThe inn is beautiful and I enjoyed breakfast. It was fun playing scrabble by the fire with a drink!
The first room we were given didn't have heat. When we notified the front desk later in the evening, they provided us with a space heater. It wasn't until the following morning when we again spoke with the front desk that we were provided with a different room that thankfully this time was heated.
Hi Ariel, Thank you for your review! We're so glad to hear that you enjoyed the charm of the Inn, your breakfast, and your time by the fire! We sincerely apologize for the discomfort and inconvenience you experienced with the temperature in your room, and we appreciate your patience as we worked to make it right. As a historic property, some quirks can arise that may not be present in other, more modern facilities, but guest comfort is always our priority. We hope you’ll consider visiting again!

Verified reviewThis was the third time we have stayed at Old Settlers Inn. There is so much to like here. The food is excellent, sourced from a local farm. Antiques are charming. The staff are all extremely helpful and kind.
I have reviewed the beds here before. The mattress is on a wooden frame which sticks out past the edge of the mattress. My husband and I have both not seen the frame in the dark and hit our calves on it. His drew blood. Fortunatly it was not much but it hurt alot. We don't understand why they don't make the frame disappear under the mattress. I end up putting pillows and furniture near the end of the bed as a reminder.

The bathroom door really squeaked when you open and closed it. It's not a deal breaker and an easy fix.

Verified reviewCarrie at the desk was very helpful. We asked lots of questions....questions she no doubt answers numerous times a day...and she was patient. We loved eating on the porch and the attention paid to us by our waitress. The gardens and creative and welcoming.
The frame of the bed stuck out to the point where I impaled my leg on it. The mattress is much smaller and the wood frame pieces are not protected. They are very dangerous, especially navigating them in the dark of night. Also the lack of an elevator was a potential problem for me. I did not see in the description of the hotel that it is impossible for anyone with mobility problems. One has to be able to climb stairs.
