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...).

I was told I couldn't stay there because I was a resident of Carlsbad New Mexico. Already paid for , already booked, needless to say we had nowhere to go my four year old my dog and I and it took 48 hours to get my money back I wish we would have been informed that they do not rent to locals on the website super 8 also does this I was in the same situation but walking when we had to leave from there. They really need to put that on the website that they do not rent to locals. We're not all bad people some of us are just in bad situations making the best out of it

The breakfast hours on a Saturday should last beyond 9am. We were not told at check-in the hours.
We got to breakfast just before 9am on a Saturday and there was absolutely nothing left. So, nothing to like.

Some staff live on premises in rooms, they were not identifiable, very rude, not professional or ethical, had to call copes due to out landish behavior, had to go get another room else where in middle of the night becasue of a miscommunication of pet regulation and we called to make sure before booking that pets where allowed.
It looked modern and clean

I recently had an extremely disappointing experience at Post time in. Despite having a confirmed reservation, the hotel staff informed me upon arrival that my room was not available. They offered no satisfactory explanation and made no effort to accommodate me with an alternative solution. This is unacceptable and shows a complete lack of organization and customer service. I will not be returning and advise others to avoid this hotel to prevent similar frustrations

I was tucked in the dark inner corner of the property, which is where several large bags of trash were dumped and left the duration of my stay by the ice machine, room 104. Directly above me were two men seated outside playing music loudly until 10pm. Every time I walked to my car and back they stared and made comments. Being a single traveler and a woman, this was uncomfortable for me. I didn’t complain in fear of retaliation. I like this place for an overnight stay to go hiking, but this stay wasn’t comfortable.
I’ve stayed here three times now and love the location and staff. The staff are usually very friendly. I’ve never had any discomfort with other guests until this stay.

Without question, having travelled tgrough 7 States so far, this is the best motel I have stayed in. Quiet, comfortable, superbly clean and well presented. Thank you for such a beautiful room. The WiFi worked perfectly, and was secure. The aircon was excellent.
