How guest reviews work
Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done 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 of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Breakfast was adequate but we came for the room, not the food.
Room was quiet and clean, staff friendly, washing machines available, and breakfast had a number of options. It's been a while since we have stayed in a motel (thanks, VRBO and AirB&B) so my wife called it "retro"...in a good way.

A hot tub with the pool would be grand and sperate shampoo/conditioner for lthose with ong hair would nice too.
The Coachman Inn was clean, comfortable, and very budget friendly. It had a fantastic location for us, just off the Western WA campus, which we were in Bellingham to view and explore specifically for a future student. We were able to practice using the bus to get to the grocery store, around the Western campus, and to check out the farmers market from this location as well as enjoy a great lunch at On Rice, just across the street! The staff were attentive and kept the breakfast hot and fresh for us even towards the end of their open service window. They also allowed us to keep vehicles at the property while we were out exploring Western. We will stay again whenever we visit Western!

The breakfast - it was ok for a "continental" but then not much to choose from. There was no brown sugar or raisins for the oatmeal. Mostly just bread and bagels.
The room was clean. The bed was comfortable, but the pillows were not the best.

The only dislike I had was as previously stated.... the communal microwave in the hallway.
The only concern I had was the communal microwave in the hallway. With the recent pandemic, I would have preferred a private microwave in the room, like in other places I've stayed in the area. Otherwise it was a lovely experience. 😊

Nothing. It's a straight-forward motel. Guests wanting fancy accommodations should look elsewhere, but a good night's sleep can be had here.
The Coachman Inn was an excellent value, clean, well maintained, and with friendly staff. I've previously stayed in AirBnB venues on previous visits to Bellingham, but they've gotten quite expensive. Coachman is a great alternative. A solid range of breakfast items. Restaurant options close by. Walking time to the downtown area--where I went daily--was a 30 minute walk; great exercise. I would definitely stay there again.

The rooms seem to be in the midst of an upgrade, with new furniture and decor - but the walls still have holes from the last decor, so part of the room isn't the prettiest. For us, easy to look past considering the price, cleanliness and comfy beds.
This little hotel exceeded our expectations. It's a little hard to know what you're going to get when you pay less than $100 for a room - but this was a steal. Room was clean, beds were more comfortable than expected, breakfast was good and the staff went above and beyond to help us figure out the bus schedule (the bus stop is very close, making for an easy way to get to downtown without a car).
