Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

My only problem was the trucks as your on the highway but as the night got later any highway noise seems to quieten down unless I just passed out from a long day driving 🚘 . 😁 This isn't a problem but I wish motels have fans in them especially when the aircon is tucked away at the furtherest end away from the bed. Thankfully I had my own as I carry one for this reason.
The location was great and having the servo next door was helpful with getting food or snacks. Has a pool but unfortunately I got there to late to use it. The view was pleasant as well as you look over sugar can fields and sweeping farms and the motel grounds were well kept. My room was for people with disabilities and I loved the ramp going into the room and the size of the room and bathroom were well thought off. Pity there wasn't a shower chair in the bathroom but they had grab rails which was helpful . ❤️ Loved the bed was a great bed, like sleeping on a cloud and the pillows were just right. I would highly recommend this motel to anyone needing a stop. Has a laundry and kitchen for guest to use which I thought was great. The owners were friendly and helpful and quiet pleasant to chat to.

The carpet needs a clean, you got dirty feet walking around in the room and could see the dirt stains in the doorway. Everything else was very clean though.
Massive room. Friendly staff. Easy to get in and out off for a stop over. The bed was comfortable and the pillows were good. I was very impressed.

The water pressure in the shower was pretty ordinary but probably easily fixed The motel is close to the highway but once the door is closed not too noisy
The beds were very comfortable and that's certainly one of the motel's core objectives. The shared kitchen area was another plus.

Good clean motel - obliging staff - great "help yourself" kitchen facilities onsite - more motels should offer this type of service. What do you need? A cereal bowl & spoon - the kitchen has it, just go grab what you want & leave it in your room, the staff will collect. Love this idea.
