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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 rating is kind since I am a long term Motel 6 traveler. My partner was sensitive to faint tobacco smells. Possibly in the bedding. We left a clothing item there , called to notify the front desk, stopped by Tuesday to pick it up. It was not returned and likely taken by the housekeeper. I also left a $10 bill for housekeeping. Very disappointing. This comment was also sent to your corporate office.

United StatesOverall, I had a pleasant stay, but the noise from cars on the street was a bit of a disturbance. Perhaps considering soundproofing upgrades to the rooms could enhance the experience for future guests.
Staff were nice. She was friendly and smiley.

United StatesThis hotel is the very definition of basic. Although the bed was comfortable and the shower worked just fine there were no other real comforts. The room was bare (no pictures or decorations), there were two plastic uncomfortable chairs provided, there was minimal space for a laptop (not a desk be the end of the tv unit) and there were no hangers on the short non-enclosed rail. The common areas of the hotel were dirty (corridors looked like they hadn't been vaccuumed for a week) and although the room floor was better.....I did find two long black hairs in my room on arrival (one on the white bed sheets, and one in the bathroom).
The hotel was well located near New Haven, and was priced well compared to other budget options in the area. There was a small fridge and a microwave in the room.

United StatesAlthough it was supposed to be a non-smoking room, there was a smell of prior cigarette smoking in the room. While it felt safe, I think there may have been some long term welfare residents living in the facility.
I felt I got what I paid for, which was a clean room in a bare bones setting. The bed was comfortable enough. The area around the hotel seemed safe.

United StatesI do not like that the price doesn't match the facilities. This is a place that should be marketed at $60/night for the aesthetics, cleanliness, and overall lack of building maintenance.
The staff are always friendly. The price isn't bad when compared to others in the area.

United StatesOne of the wall lamps near the tv didn’t work properly. Pushing the button really didn’t work most of the time. But we finally got it turned on but the only way to shut it off was to loosen the bulb.
We didn’t eat breakfast. The ac worked beautifully plus it was very quiet unlike most air conditioners. The tv was excellent and the room was spacious enough for the few guests we had from the wedding we attended. There was no unnecessary noise and it was very quiet to allow for a peaceful sleep. The staff was especially pleasant.
