Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

There was only one working elevator on the opposite side of the hotel. There was nowhere to set toothbrushes, etc in the bathroom. Just a sink, no vanity. It was extremely hot in the hotel halls. It was 90° outside and the heat was on inside the hotel.
The kids loved the pool. I liked the table in the living room area of our hotel room.

Facilities could use an investment.
The water park is amazing, but the facilities are run down and showing it. They should ditch the 1980s rusted out airport van - gives a terrible first impression. But it was clean and the pool area with slide was _the best hotel pool we've ever stayed at_ - thus worth it in the end. But understand that little things will be broken or rusted and worn around the edges. It is a tradeoff for affordable child joy. No extra charge for the water park use.

AC not consistent,dirty baseboards especially in bathroom. Not enough cups for coffee ans bone for bathroom. Never offered poolside room. Floors in hallway very dirty and water stained, broken glass in one of the fire extinguisher cases. No information brochures in the room. Safe was locked shut and unavailable to use. The pool was nice and clean and fun, but completely unsupervised and dangerous for kids, kids running all over and going down the big slide ontop of each other and hanging out at the bottom of the slide, very dangerous. I'm appalled that there is no continental breakfast, with prices like these. There is one area under construction that is not roped off at all. The restaurant experience was pretty lousy, understaffed and the kids meal alfredo dinner was spicy!!!!! At least free coffee and fruit would have been cool. Toilet didn't flush well kinda of low water pressure maybe??
Beds are comfortable, tv is good.

We couldn't get into our room so walked back to front desk to let them know, lady called maintenance to open our door but when we went back to our room I was able to get door opened. Maintenance came 40 minutes later 😮. If we had waited outside our room all that time to get in I would have demanded a 50% refund! Pebble floor in pool area is hard on the feet. Breakfast should be free. $16 per person is expensive.
Nice pools & hot tub. Clean hotel & room.

Multiple things in our room were broken. We booked the presidential suite. The balcony door was almost impossible to open. The faucet in the wet bar was broken. The shower leaked all over the bathroom. The toilet was leaking. The elevator was broken, so we had to carry our luggage up the stairs. We entered at door D and there was a lowered mulch bed right in front of the door that I didn't see while carrying luggage and tripped into.
The restaurant on site was very good and the staff was great. The Waterpark had potential, but the kids area and the slide were both closed.

Our bathroom tub had mold throughout the seal around the tub, and other areas of the bathroom clearly need to be fixed/remodeled including some drywall. I also have never stayed at a hotel where they clean the rooms every 3rd day, which staying 4 nights was a bit annoying. Ran out of toilet paper.
My daughter loved the water park and the restaurant attached was very convenient.
