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 reviewThe property was both centralized and secluded. The grounds were well landscaped and tidy, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing and serene. 21 and over is a must - no children made the experience that much better overall. While I had planned to go out and explore more of the town, the hotel made it very enticing to just stay in and enjoy the space, as well as the delicious food at the Barn Kitchen onsite. The staff were attentive and friendly, I really could not have been happier.
Can’t really think of anything to be honest!
Hello Molly, Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review! We’re delighted to know the peaceful setting, beautiful grounds, and inviting atmosphere allowed you to truly relax and enjoy your time with us.

We’d love to welcome you back for another serene escape whenever you’re ready for a return visit! Cheers, Alex Carlo, General Manager

Verified reviewThe place was incredible, the breakfast was delicious, the meals for purchase were great as well and the staff was super helpful. It was the best retreat I had in Palm Springs. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the room was beautiful. Everything was made to feel cared.

Verified reviewI have celebrated a number of quiet birthdays here. Greeted warmly and discovered welcoming champagne and resort hats in the room. The grounds are bucolic and peaceful. The rooms have been updated. The interiors have been painted in a rustic whitewash (huge improvement over the exposed wood, which made the rooms feel quite dark). Each room boasts its own enclosed, private back patio. The fire pit adds a special charm to the communal area.
The continental breakfast buffet is somewhat sparse, The only warm food option is bread and bagels, if you choose to toast them yourself. The coffee was good. Also, this place is intended for couples. If sharing with a plutonic friend, just be aware that the bathrooms are open to the room (except for the toilet), so privacy is minimal. We managed fine, but we'd stayed here before so we knew the layout.
Hello Emily, Thanks for choosing Sparrows Lodge to celebrate another birthday—it means a lot when familiar faces return. We're glad the room updates, private patio, and warm welcome helped set the tone for a relaxing stay. Your feedback about breakfast and room layout is appreciated, and it’s helpful for others considering a visit. We hope to have you back whenever you're ready for another peaceful desert escape. Cheers, Alex Carlo, General Manager

The F word was showcased in The Barn restaurant area. Don’t understand the reason for the vulgarity in an otherwise delightful room.

Verified reviewThis hotel is one of my favs. Love the redesign to make the space brighter than the last time I was there. It was hot as hell in the desert but the made sure to keep the whole area cool and refreshing. The rooms were spacious, private patios on point, and of course, poolside life was exactly why we came here. The staff is also amazing and helpful throughout the day.
Not a darn thing was bad
