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 location was ok, this is a motel that individuals are staying at. We had food delivered to our room, and they took it to the lobby. Someone took it.
This hotel needs upgrades, or a separate floor from individuals who live there. We don't all need to be treated horribly. They also kept my security deposit, seems like a place that would do that. Stay across the street at that Sonesta.
Hi Sonsarae, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. Regarding the issue with your food delivery, we are unfortunately unable to determine what may have occurred after it was delivered to your room. You may wish to contact the delivery service directly for further assistance. With respect to your deposit, it was withheld due to evidence of marijuana use found in the room following your departure. As this is a violation of our strict no-smoking policy, the forfeiture of the deposit was in accordance with our stated terms and conditions. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us directly. Sincerely, Sonesta Management Team

they dont serve breakfast, the first week I steeped in dog poop right out my front door. I didnt know they allowed dogs here or I probably would have found a different place. the refrigerator, fan and air conditioner is extremely noisy. I cant even sleep. I had to have someone look at the fan because it was giving me a headache. My room is on the 3rd floor and the elevator has been broken for over 2 weeks. Im here getting treatment for my wife and it has been really hard for her going up and down the stairs. People were smoking in there room and the smoke was coming right through the bathroom fan.

Verified reviewWanted a suite with kitchen
Not clean. Bed in bedroom was low to the floor. Not conducive for handicapped senior. A vicious dog that owner wasn’t able to handle was allowed on the premises. We checked out early on the 17th as the room didn’t meet what we expected. They wouldn’t give us a receipt for our stay. First thing, there was supposed to be breakfast and there wasn’t. Wouldn’t stay there again
