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.).

CanadaThe room was very small for a family of 4. We were on the street side so noisy with traffic. We were in a room that had an adjoining room with a connecting door and it was very easy to hear the people next door - great if you are a bigger party, but not good if not. The bathroom is very tiny. The carpet felt dirty, I didn’t want to be in bare feet. It was fine for 1 night, bearable, but I would not recommend staying for anything longer unless you upgrade the room type.
The location to the beach was fantastic.

United StatesThe big pool wasn't heated and we all were looking forward to swimming especially my daughter!
I love the location and the friendly staff however, I was disappointed that the pool was not heated as my daughter celebrated her 3rd birthday at the hotel didn’t get a chance to go in the pool. My family has been staying at your property for 30 years when it was Vacation Village and we have lots of great memories!

United StatesPerfect location. A block from the beach and less than a quarter mile to downtown. We walked everywhere from the hotel. But understand that there is a reason the hotel rate is lower than anywhere else with the same location. The building is rundown, the walls and floors are thin and the bed is not comfortable. We were in town for a wedding so did not expect to spend much time there. It was a fine stay for our purposes.

United StatesIt feels like a motel in these rooms NOT a hotel, the bathroom is extremely tiny, there are a LOT of stairs to get to lobby/pool/beach- there’s no modern updates to this property. The parking is not included in the ‘resort fee’ and this is NOT a resort. So it’s grossly overpriced for the quality.
The location of the oceanfront views can NOT be beat. The hotel itself is extremely walkable assuming you are in good shape.

South AfricaBathrooms terrible, very small like closets. Hotel very dated with nails from room below, sticking up on floor. Back room smelled moldy and AC made noise. No privacy on balcony.
Location right on beach. Front room very spacious. Check in lady -Dutch-was very friendly. Valet was nice but expensive. Restaurant on site right on beach. Inter-leading rooms a bonus.

United StatesOnly two burners worked on the stove top. But, we managed. There is no heat source in the room. A great deal of mold/mildew behind the toilet. Modernization is in order for $300/night & up rooms.
The view was amazing...next time we'll try the Surf bldg...closer to the beach. Our room was clean, and having the kitchen was great. I found the hotel to be very quiet & peaceful. The sound of the waves and sunsets were amazing as well.

United StatesThe place was not the nicest but it was a place to sleep. The beds were small even though they had said they were Queen sized. The room was decently clean.
The lady at the front desk is rude and always made myself and my friends uncomfortable with her micro-aggressive behavior. She would make me feel as if I was stupid for any question I had.

United StatesI thought it ridiculous to charge someone $45/day for parking. Also, the room was cold…..it took three request to get a small heater for the room. The bathrooms are small and difficult to place anything on the counter during your stay.

United StatesThe building is so worn down and basic, inside and out. If it weren’t for the crashing waves and amazing view, you could be at some motel off the I-5 corridor. Every piece of furniture and fixture is cheap and worn. It’s so bad that I didn’t want to be in the room or even on the balcony. There is a window that is not well placed for privacy, so they painted it white. Now it’s chipping. It’s like people who don’t know how a hotel should be were put in charge of renovating an old beach motel with a small budget at Home Depot and Amazon. There are definitely better places to stay in Laguna.
The location in the center of LB and right on the water is terrific. That is what you are paying for.
