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 StatesOur recently painted room still had a lingering smoke smell. The bed was uncomfortable and bedding was thin.
Loved that it had an elevator to our third floor room. It appeared that the motel had recently upgraded its breakfast room with new countertops. However, the tables and chairs were still chipped and worn. Plenty of breakfast choices including biscuits and sausage gravy, pancakes, egg patties, mini muffins, cereal and yogurt, coffee and juices.

United StatesFan in bathroom is crazy loud, there were a couple of stains on the sheets. Breakfast food was not very good, and if you want to be able to eat it, don't look at the sink in the Breakfast area. The coffee was also nasty.
Great location for parking with a truck and trailer. Close to restaurants and easy to get to. Bed was comfortable. Overall, the room was pretty clean and a good value for the price.

United StatesI was upset that somebody was smoking in the hall where our rooms were and all the rooms were non-smoking. I'm allergic to cig smoke so I had to cover my face and run to my room before my throat swelled up.
The beds were comfortable and you don't hear much traffic.

United StatesBreakfast area seemed like it could use some regular tidying as the morning progressed. Hot food was not always promptly replenished. Difficult to see the sign from the main highway...especially as I arrived after dark. Need a sign closer to Business 18. My biggest complaint would be the pool - as it was ICE COLD - colder than the lap pool I swim in at the YMCA! I used it because I needed the exercise, but it was quite uncomfortable. Also concerned about the maintenance of the pool area, as a hose was laying across the floor, which easily could have been a tripping hazard - but even more concerning was that one of the rungs on one of the ladders at the deeper end of the pool was broken - hanging from one end of its connection.
Room was clean and quite comfortable.

United StatesMy family has stayed here for many years. This year was a disappointment. The lady who checked us in was rude, they didn't clean our room the entire time we were there, there was no gravy for the biscuits for breakfast because the can opener was broken (for several days?), the elevator was broken, there were loose tiles in the bathroom and someone had written in the dust on our wall. We hear they are remodeling so hopefully this is a one off and next year will be back to the normal quality of this hotel.
Beds were comfortable, pool was clean, plenty of parking. Accessibility to restaurants, activities and shopping

United StatesMy husband and I are both disabled so climbing 3 flights of steps is ridiculous with all our bags plus our chaos our dog was too much and the pool was out of service so no elevators and no pool. All the amenities that come with high prices and we were not informed that the pool or elevator was out until after we pd and got the room.
The staff was exceptional was able to have my service animal and no complaints with them even while they are still training every day the staff respected that while the vests were on not to approach or try to talk to or pet the animal...very great staff

Hotel was clean. Staff was friendly (we arrived late). Easy to get to. Breakfast was better than i expected from a small town.

United StatesWhile the room had everything that was advertised, it was all put into a too small room so there was very little room to even walk between the bed and the dresser. No room really to put our luggage; we put one suitcase on the dresser and one on the desk! And the coat hanger was right over the desk so you couldn't really utilize it.
The staff were very friendly and accomodating. There was a computer problem when we arrived but the lady at the front desk gave us our room without a long wait and just asked us to return later to fill out the paperwork; so welcome after a long drive!! Very nice breakfast provided; first time we ever saw a pancake machine! Room was nice and clean; comfortable bed. Several restaurants nearby, one you could walk to.
