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 KingdomNothing!
The reception lady was so helpful and gave us recommendations of places to go to. Location was great! Accommodation was perfect, travelled with 2 adults and 3 children (one of which is 2) Beds were so comfy and kitchen had everything we needed and more. The outdoor pool was heated which was ideal and at the night a fire was lit outside which was beautiful! We would highly recommended this place and wished we had stayed longer.

Spare facilities but clean with a great location. I rate this as an exceptional value. I felt that I was on the Amalfi coast, if that is even possible when staying in or near Newport Beach.

United StatesThe hotel is directly on the main street of Laguna beach so there is a lot of traffic. You have to be very careful in driving in and out as well as walking across the street.
We got a King Bed Room with a kitchenette. It was perfect for our needs. We had a small dog with us and we wanted to have a few of our meals in our room. It worked well. The Tides In is an older hotel but it has been updated and well-maintained. The staff was very nice and helpful.

Super cute property, included beach chairs, parking, and many small things that made it really convenient. Very cozy and small town feel, even has a handwritten welcome card! Loved the staff and how polite they all were. They upgraded us for free without us asking. Loved the heated salt water pool, it was amazing after the beach.

CanadaDidn't like dragging mine and my wife's heavy luggage up the stairs but that was no fault of Tides. The washroom was a bit cramped, but serviceable.
Very lovely stay! The place was very clean and the room was nice and large even with a king bed. We had a decent (partial) view of the ocean from the room. We walking down to the awesome coastline in five minutes as it was a block away. The heated pool and the cozy corner outdoor fireplace next to the pool, in the evening, was a special treat.

CanadaSince we were beside the laundry room and the drains obviously needed service, our room had a sewer smell when laundry was in use. The hotel did let us use a candle for the smell so that helped.
Clean comfortable room that has everything you need, close to everything in Laguna Beach. Parking is right on the property and safe. Pool area very spacious and the temperature was warm even though the weather was on the cold side.
