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 reviewlocation, that's about it
the rooms are in woeful conditions. for the price you pay, you're better of staying at the nearby Best Western or Hampton Inn. The place is in dire need of a major renovations. Sheets and flooring were filthy to the point sticky. Non smoking rooms smelled of smoke and was only given a spray bottle by housekeeping to spray around the room. Kitchenette was falling apart as the cupboard doors were coming off. the air-conditioning to the room was just a hole in the wall with some ducting resulting in the room feeling warm.

Verified reviewNo breakfast provided. On a dead end road. Located within a couple of minutes of major highway and shopping. The staff were polite.
The entrance was difficult to enter especially for handicapped patrons. There wasn’t a typical front lobby and so patrons were quite congested. I had to ask for sheets for the additional bed. Carpets and floors needed cleaning. There several cut holes in the ceilings. Not sure why.

Verified reviewNothing to like about
The pictures shown on the website and in real has a vast difference. The hotel was very dirty. Floor was literally sticky. Inside the room cups plates were dirty. Complained to the concierge they mentioned they will clean it and change the room but they didn’t. The corridor was very dirty as well. Dirty towels were kept side of the concierge’s main desk. I will not recommend anyone staying here. With that price money people can find better hotels. Deceiving part was pictures. That’s why I booked the place.

Verified reviewThe pictures do not represent the facility. The room now thoroghly clean, dust, and some food traces. Dirty bathtub, bad smells in the hotel, air is "stuffy" my wife was itchy and we ended not sleeping there, we left in the middle of the night to a better hotel. All these can be fixed with some effort from the business.

Verified reviewVery comfortable bed and the full kitchen with icemaker was handy.
No milk to make tea none available even in the shop. No shampoo - I had to ask at the desk. No hot water in the shower at all - when I asked they told me the handle was on backwards and to turn it to cold but I got nothing but very lukewarm shower, no matter which way I turned it. No one at all available at the front desk at the 11:00 checkout time. Several others had been waiting there for ages. I had to just leave the card but had wanted to leave my bags. I didn't like having an unfrosted window that looked right out to the parking lot. I couldn't open the curtains at all.

Verified reviewLocation only
Well the place was smelly and old! When I did the check-in for my son, I thought that in first place, it was nice until I walked down the hall it looked bad. When I got to the room, there was a number missing from the wall for the room. When I went inside, it had a musty smoke smell, and the "sleeper sofa" which they had ran out of sheets for it and there was NO mattress on it so I bought a cot over for my granddaughter to sleep on. Also, Saturday morning at 7 am there was hammering and drilling. I personally would not recommend this place to my worst enemy!

Verified reviewNice & helpful staff.
The whole place had a musty smell. My room reaked of musty smells. The photos of the place make it look nice but it’s an old tv, bed was hard as a rock, shower head was gross, the tub drain was gross, didn’t look like someone scrubbed the toilet clean & the fridge sounded like it was going to die.

Verified reviewOne girl working at the front desk - wrote down on a napkin what we took from the grab and go - no idea if it was accurate because I got billed $50 without a breakdown. I called downstairs for towels (there were none in the room when we arrived) and was told they don’t have anyone to bring them up so I could come down and get them. Asked if they had on-site laundry and was told that the dryer went on fire the night before and they had no additional services to offer. It was just a poor experience overall. For $150 a night, I would expect there to be towels in the room or available. After going downstairs to get towels, I was told they didn’t have any. How does a hotel operate without towels. I’d like someone to reach out to me. I would have stayed elsewhere if I was informed that there was no towels, service, or laundry. I’d also like a breakdown of my bill since I was charged $50 for a mini pizza, toothpaste, and laundry detergent.

The hallways and elevator were dirty. Looks like no one has vacuum or mopped or wipe down walls. Only the common areas were not clean. Maybe it was too early and they may not have gotten to it yet.
