Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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...).

I liked the staff the most. The owner (maybe?) was so nice and kind and very accommodating to our needs! The location was great! Very close to the Watkins Glenn Park. We were also surprised to see that they offered breakfast treats!

We stayed here two nights on Columbus Day. Small room, clean bathroom, liked that the window could be opened for fresh air. It was quiet at night and we slept well. The AC worked well, but was rarely used. Felt taken care of the guests. The bed was made, the towels were changed, the trash was removed. The bathroom had both soap and shampoo. Lots of different TV channels, works well. It was nice that they offered breakfast - coffee, muffins. By the way, there is delicious ice cream across the road. Convenient location - 7 minutes walk to Watkins Glen Gorge. We loved this place and would like to return. Very hospitable friendly staff. Thanks a lot. We recommend to everyone.

United StatesThe rooms are small and are fine for one person or a couple. I wouldn't recommend staying there if you were there sharing a room on a business trip.
This is a very clean and reasonably priced motel at the center of Watkins Glen.

United StatesThe room was very tiny and the only space to set up my daughter's pack-and-play was in front of the door. The shower curtain and bedspread needed changing due to stains.
This was a great location to stay in regards to the places we wanted to visit. We were able to check in late. Requests were met promptly.

United StatesI didn't like that they charged my credit/debit card if I didn't check in by a certain time. I was unaware of this. I was paying cash when I got there. I pretty much arrived a couple hours after this happened. My card was refunded. Later that week my bank account was off because I was charged a $15 fee for the sales return. I never called the hotel to complain. I knew they weren't going to reimburse the $15 dollars.
