Hotel Star Rating Guide

The star rating assigned to each hotel is purely my personal rating of the hotel under review. This rating is a subjective review based on my personal opinion when I visited the hotel. The rating is not comprised of objective point based review of the hotel but is a subjective review of the hotel based on my personal view and feel of the hotel during my visit.
