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 reviewHotel was in a great location,staff were very helpful.Lift into the town nearby very appreciated.
Decor of the room we had and of the hotel in general was very tired and in need of bringing up to date and refreshing.In view of the fact there was no breakfast,over priced for the room we had.
Dear Sarah, Thank you for sharing your experience. It is wonderful to hear that the location worked so well for your visit and that our team’s helpful approach added to the ease of your stay. The nearby lift into town is certainly a convenience, and we are glad it was appreciated. At the same time, we recognize your comments regarding the overall décor, the need for refreshing updates, and the value of our accommodations without breakfast included. These observations are very helpful, as they highlight ways in which the guest experience can be improved. We are grateful for your honesty and hope that on a future visit, you will notice meaningful enhancements alongside the same attentive service.

Verified reviewWe loved the location right on the St. Michael’s harbor with beautiful views of the Chesapeake Maritime Museum lighthouse and many vessels navigating the Miles river to dock at the hotel marina. The hotel was so clean and the staff - especially Kevin and Nicole at the front desk were so welcoming and attentive to all of our needs and concerns, always quick to make recommendations including recommending Jesse, captain of Big Will II who gave us a great private tour of the Miles River and harbor while searching for dolphins to view and sharing interesting stories and recommendations of local spots to visit. The attention to details in our room did not go unnoticed, such as a large stall shower with ample shelves for the great smelling hair and body products, a double sink vanity with drawers and Cotton balls and q-tips, hair dryer, full length mirror, hand held makeup mirror. The pretty wall unit in the bedroom/living room area had a desk area with a stool and lamp as well as a TV and refrigerator/freezer and pretty nautical decorative accent pieces. Although we did not opt for one of the larger rooms, our room had a small couch at the foot of the pretty and comfy bed. On each floor and in the small lobby shop a coffee dispenser that even offered decaf and iced options was much appreciated. Complimentary bikes and free parking was also a plus. We would definitely return.
The one huge disappointment was breakfast at Harrison’s Harborlights restaurant at the hotel. It is a shame that with such a beautiful location with gorgeous waterfront views, it was the worst breakfast we have ever had. The people who were running it seemed nice and apologized, but were clueless about the bad reviews they have received. Because of that experience and the many other bad reviews of the food, we decided not to have lunch or dinner there. It would be beneficial to the hotel and guests if they could lease the two-level waterfront restaurant and bar premises to one that could offer a better experience and draw larger crowds to this prime location.
Dear Amy, We sincerely thank you for your recent stay at St. Michaels Harbour Inn, Marina & Spa, and for sharing your wonderful feedback with us! We are absolutely delighted that you enjoyed our hotel and prime location, and we truly appreciate your perfect rating. It warms our hearts to know that you took advantage of our many amenities and that Kevin and Nicole made such a positive impression with their welcoming and attentive service. Your kind words about our staff truly inspire us to continue providing outstanding hospitality. We also value your insights regarding our breakfast. Please rest assured that we are committed to enhancing every aspect of our guest experience, and your feedback will help us improve in this area. Thank you once again for your thoughtful review. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to welcome you back for an even more extraordinary stay!

The food service was unbelievable slow and got many many food orders wrong. Even for a big important dinner. The maids were inconsistent, no towels, clean some areas sometimes. You have to sign towels in and out at the desk - ridiculous. Bar tender never around. Noise from band too loud.
