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 StatesThe place felt sketchy since the beginning… The room next door seemed like they were leaving there, a guy got into a room without a key and then kept starring at us. The bed was too soft and was not comfortable at all.
The staff was nice and the bathroom was new and it was clean.

United StatesCoffee provided was OK. I would have been happy to pay a dollar or two for better coffee at the office. We will bring our own coffee next time. And there will be a next time! This will be our first choice for lodging when we come to Santa Barbara for an event, which we do fairly often. We can spend our budgeted funds on better tickets, knowing we will have a clean, comfortable and convenient place to spend the night. It always makes me sad to see how much plastic is used for things like wrapping individual paper cups, but I understand the need for sanitation. Next time we'll put a pair of travel mugs in the car and avoid the need for disposable plastic wrapped cups. I don't fault Town & Country management, but as we arrived by car, we can easily do better for the environment.
Very convenient location. Easy to find from the freeway, and close to the Lobero Theater, where we had an engagement. The room and bathroom met my mom's high standards for clean. Sparkling tile, immaculate floors, and recently painted walls. Towels were better than I would have expected, and plentiful. Good quality bedding, too. It was nice to have a mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker. It was easy to keep the room at the right temperature, and the in room heater operated more quietly than my furnace at home. We didn't hear a peep from adjoining rooms. Blackout drapes actually kept the room dark. Each bed had its own dimmable light in the ceiling. This place far exceeded my expectations for lodging at this price level. A dream for this retired traveler on a budget! We won't think about where to stay on future trips. We'll be at the Town & Country.

United StatesThe parking lot(S) sucked!!! This is in a nice part of town and neighborhood so parking is at a premium. However, parking lot near office had NO SPACES cause too much junk being stored (construction vehicles, parked trailers, chairs outside each door for smokers, cars that never move, & building supplies. Looked like a dump! Second parking lot near my room was always filled completely with vehicles. Walking between lots at night, up and downhill was inconvenient and felt somewhat unsafe due to walking along the Main Street on a sidewalk with luggage and parcels.
My special request was No Smoking & No Carpet! Got what I wanted. This room was VERY CLEAN and comfortable. Mostly quiet round-the-clock. Bed and bedding felt 4-Star! Plenty of hot water. This place was definitely A GOOD BARGAIN for the MONEY and in a GREAT LOCATION!!! I appreciated THAT the most! Necessary 5-day trip for two funerals…. Never saw staff member between Check In and Check Out. They were nice. Phone staff was VERY GOOD! Never saw a breakfast. Sweet housekeeper DID bring extra coffee packets and an iron to my room as requested.

United StatesUpon arrival no one was there to check us in. We waited over 30 min to get access to our room. Our tv did not work, our smoke detector was covered with a bag, there was no lamp and our mattress had mold and another stain on the side. There was no comforter like the photo but a sheet over a blanket. The noise level was obscene all night. Worst night, the best part was seeing a pair of dirty underwear on the room - I kid you not!
The shower was new and large

Location and value. I checked in at 11pm and checked out at 8am. Just a place to sleep. It was quiet. There was a coffee maker in the room. The shower was new and the water got hot quickly. Bed linens, pillow(s) and mattress were very comfortable.
