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.).

Breakfast. Slightly dated. Boyfriend kept hurting and jamming his fingers while holding the rail to climb the stairs to climb to our 2nd floor room. A bit of a hazard since no lift offered.

United StatesThe reception was gracious and accommodating. The breakfast was set on a beautiful patio with a Koi fish fountain and a warm fire pit. Our room had many luxurious perks. There was a rooftop patio with excellent views all around. Also, the location was perfect and close to all, but also had the feel of a quiet getaway.

The staff was absolutely lovely and were were able to check in early! We loved the set up of the room and our garden room still had a slight ocean view. Breakfast was included and was simple but kept us full for our needs. They also have a stunning rooftop with 369 degree views.

United StatesThere are a lot of stairs but that’s how it is in Avalon. And our AC would not kick in at night when it was a bit stuffy for sleeping.
It was really clean, well updated and quality. The robes were luxurious, the bath products incredible, the design elements of all the wood was so cozy but elevated. The outdoor patio was really nice and the rooftop area was amazing!

United StatesI imagine it’s a Catalina issue- but the water pressure and water coverage with the shower and shower head is pretty weak. There is also a very squeaky spring noise on one side of the bed every time one sits on it or moves much. (this was room 203)
It was a very good location, with charming rooms ( love the balcony with a swing bench!) - terrific staff- ( Wendy was awesome!)

United StatesNothing to complain about! Everything was absolutely wonderful. We're well traveled and would recommend this place for sure - 10/10
I loved the fact that we had the most amazing view from our balcony. Upon arrival, the staff was incredible and super helpful - we were offered all types of guidance about where to go, when to have breakfast and any additional requests we had. It felt like staying in a unique boutique Inn which had the same amenities as a 5 star luxury hotel. The bathroom was so quaint, and the bed super soft and comfortable. We stayed on the 3rd floor so didn't hear much noise at night, and the staff was super accommodating and we LOVED that everything was in walking distance and close proximity. Definitely a place to stay if visiting Catalina :)

United StatesI would have liked more breakfast options, being vegetarian I need more than a pastry or a bagel. that being said the hotel recommended plenty of other breakfast options nearby. Naughty Fox and Catalina cookies were the best. The stairs are a bit much if walking is hard for you.
I enjoyed the lite breakfast in the beautiful and peaceful garden. The rooftop spot was perfect in the evening and allowed several groups to enjoy the views of the ocean. The staff was kind and the hotel even covered the fair to and from the hotel from the ferry. The bathroom had a special UV light for disinfection which was very cool!
