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

Verified reviewAn idyllic & peaceful setting. My stay was only for 1 night, but I can imagine it would be a great place to return to every night after a day of adventuring during a prolonged stay. The proprietor, Fritz, was great. Would recommend to anyone.

Verified reviewHosts Frits and Paula are cordial, disarming and readily available and welcoming. Upon arrival any sense of urgency that may have tagged along uninvitedly slips away, a vocational hazard of modern living. The property is nestled away on the edge of the Rio Grande River giving you a feeling of privacy you would expect if you were in the high mountain, giving you the advantage of being close to local restaurants and businesses. Fritz invested a lot of time in planning and building his cabins, choosing hewn timbers from Tennessee, contrasted with a modern white chinking material, providing a rustic Appalachian effect, with dovetail notches at the corners, as compared to the round “Lincoln Log” timber. I spent some time marveling at his craftsmanship. Anyone who has taken a woodworking or a “Shop” class in high school will appreciate Fritz’s desire to maintain this historical style. In closing, this lovely couple will be “the warm gravy on your cold mashed potatoes.” And, I am forever grateful. With every good wish and enduring good will, Dr. Drew

Verified reviewAfter years of reservations on Booking, Riverside Meadows Cabins has reset the bar for the gold standard. The location is unbeatable and the owners incredibly accommodating. My partner and I discovered this place by pure luck in an effort to escape the heat of eastern Utah. The reviews don’t do this place justice, and for good reason: loose lips sink ships! Seriously, I feel like we stumbled upon one of the best small businesses in all of Colorado. Literal footsteps from the Rio Grande, the rooms are immaculate and well provisioned. Quiet and comfortable, my partner and I are already looking forward to our next stay with Fritz and his family. And speaking of Fritz, I would be remiss if I didn’t single him out for being such a great host. After my girlfriend and I arrived, Fritz and his family took off to attend a music festival in neighboring Del Norte. Not a half hour later I locked the room keys to our room inside the cabin. And when I called Fritz, not only did he answer, he walked us through finding a hide-a-key completely saving the day. So many superlatives to say about this place, but between the surroundings, the immaculately clean rooms, the wonderful owners and their resident border collie, Kobi, this place is the definition of five stars!
Absolutely not a thing!

Verified reviewThe owners put a lot of stock in creating an environment to relax and it felt like we were stepping into another world for a time. The cabins were just yards from the river and so tastefully decorated. They have flowers staged everywhere. We would love to come back someday.
I personally don’t like to wake up when the sun comes up so I usually like to have curtains on the windows as an option. I can understand why the owners would like to keep that to a minimum because it would take away from the beauty of the inside of the cabin.
