Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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 States of AmericaThe room was kind of small as well as the bathroom, but the owner who remodeled obviously made good use of the space. The other thing is the bright light outside the door. It showed through the door making it too light in the room at night, so it was difficult for sleeping. I would suggest a better blind on the door or give the guests the opportunity to turn the light off at night.
The breakfast was simple, but everything was fresh and healthy. The rooms were very clean and common areas, too. Like the front porch with padded outdoor furniture outside. Too bad it was too cold to enjoy it. Only a one night stay unfortunately. The shower head was nice and warm which was great, and bed was big and comfortable.

United States of AmericaThe breakfast was great for a continental breakfast-plenty to eat. The room we stayed in was above the main office. It was quiet and spacious. The beds were comfortable and clean. It was bad weather when we stayed, but the view is unbeatable. The staff was amazing and friendly!

United States of AmericaThe room was newly redone which was cozy and beautiful however it took awhile to warm up as the heat was off before we arrived and the wood floor stayed fairly cold from the draft of the window/door.
Location was beautiful. Located right across the street from the beach which allowed for a perfect New Years day walk along the water as well as a view of the fire works New Years Eve. The manager was great and very helpful when we had some difficulties figuring out the heat in the room.

United States of AmericaThe walls were pretty thin. I could hear people in the other rooms. I was gone for most of the day but then once I got back to my room for down time, it was slightly distracting. It also made me insecure that all of my steps and other movements could be heard from folks next to me and below me. Not a deal breaker at all, but definitely something folks might want to know.
The Breakwater Hotel was perfect! It was located right on the beach, which was so convenient and peaceful. It was very affordable and such a cute, cozy place to stay! It’s pet friendly which is good for me to know for future trips because I can bring my dog! There were some really cute dogs there. Thank you Breakwater! I’ll definitely be coming back!

United States of AmericaHonestly the renovations were well thought out and make the most of the limited space that old motor inns possess, and having a comfortable outdoor seating area at each room is very helpful. I have nothing negative to comment on, as it was so well managed. Our room was missing the Keurig machine and Joe brought us one promptly so I could have a coffee prior to the 8am breakfast.
Joe is the greatest amenity on the property! From my initial phone call through checking out Joe was a true pleasure in all regards. He is a gem! Meeting wonderful folks like Joe is one of the main reasons for my lifelong affection and highest regards for Provincetown, there is no other place on Earth I prefer more. Your decision to make The Breakwater pet friendly is so appreciated by those of us that always travel with our four legged family members. A big shout out to the breakfast. great coffee, muffins, cereal, hard eggs, yogurt, fruit and more!

The rooms were cozy and comfortable with a keurig and every TV station that you would need. We also liked the fact that you aloud dogs and had a smoking area. We did go down during the off season December 7-9z. So the price of the hotel was extremely affordable!!! I we also loved Joe who greeted us with a warm pleasant smile. He was very welcoming and informative about where to go in town!!!!

United States of AmericaMy new neighbors were loud the third night--but the sound machine (provided) took care of that.
The bay is literally across the road from the hotel. I had to decide whether to enjoy my morning coffee and evening wine on the sweet little porch furniture just outside my room door or make the 50-foot trek to the Adirondack chairs on the platform above the beach. Breakfast was good (muffins, hardboiled eggs, cereal, juice, coffee). The manager Joe had great local advice and history--and was just so very kind. The room was simple but more than adequate (great water pressure, fridge, cable).

United States of AmericaSuper cute space right on the water! Clean and comfortable, we only stayed for one night in Ptown and this was perfect. Close enough that you're only a 3-4 minute drive from downtown, but far enough out that it's quiet! They have a little space set up with chairs right on the beach for guests, and the view at night with all the stars was just as breathtaking as the sunrise. Continental breakfast was yummy and the staff was accommodating and kind.
