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):
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.
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.).

United StatesVERY NOISY. The noise from the traffic was unbelievably loud. The motel is very close to the road. Our room was an odd layout. Beds were in separate rooms. Normally when we get 2 full beds me and my husband each sleep in a bed (we are so used to our king bed so fulls are small to us) so sleeping separate in 2 different rooms was odd to us. No table in the room to eat at. No microwave. The heat and hot water worked great. Toilet would run for awhile after flushing. Room service was great. We didn’t think we would have it but she cleaned up and made our beds. Got fresh towels. No hair dryer. Basically, in a nutshell the rooms are very dated. Clean but dated. You can tell the money is spent maintaining the restaurant vs the rooms.
The location to Jim Thorpe and hiking was very convenient.

United StatesThe TV didn't work and the staff that was on hand said they could not do anything about it. And it's just a little thing but it was 2 beds in 2 adjoining rooms. And the only trash can was a tiny one in bathroom.
Staff is nice. Clean room. Restaurant very good. I have stayed before and would stay again.

United StatesThe unavoidable traffic noise, very loud, all night long. At 1:30 AM I looked out our window just to make sure a truck would not come crashing through our room. Also we checked out at 8:30 am but no coffee was available, the door was locked and no one was in attendance.
The room was exceptionally clean and the staff at Macaluso's were very accommodating and food was delicious. We would definitely recommend Macaluso's for fine dining. Easy access to Penns Peak. Overall good value and nice experience 👍

United StatesHad issues with the TV they should supply instructions on how to use also there was no hair dryer in room but we were there for one night so not an issue, but as mentioned in other comments before we booked the road noise was loud and the room is small but works for a Jim Thorpe visit.
The location worked well a short drive to town of Jim Thorpel, having such a great restaurant at the motel was so nice the food was the best, and the staff was VERY accommodating.
