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 StatesThe location is NOT in downtown Banff but at the edge of town. 15-20 min walk to breakfast/downtown and complimentary bus service which is a nice perk but waiting for the bus is problematic as it doesn’t run on time. The property has no onsite management and the keyless entry/checkin process is flawed at the least and at best horrible and inefficient. There is a block and half walk to the Caribou Lodge to remedy this situation.
The bed was very comfortable and the shower was updated, modern, large with good water pressure and amenities.

United KingdomThe Motel is slightly on the edge of town in an area that is clearly being redeveloped. It was a 20-25min walk into town, though not a problem for us, elderly visitors might have to drive or take a bus into town. We really appreciated the cleaning service.
The room was clean, well designed and roomy. The facilities were OK and the car parking facilities were good. The cleaning service was first class. Really happy with the rooms. Views from the doorstep were outstanding.

LOVED this property. The rooms were beautiful and very clean. Very close to downtown (5 mins car ride, 20 min walk). There is a gas station walking distance that was convenient when we needed snacks and they also had a water dispenser if you needed to fill up a camel back or water bottles.

AustraliaA bit disconcerting that there was no staff actually there, but we were given adequate instructions of how to collect key and access any assistance. We needed to get someone to organise a plumber, as the toilet developed a leak.
The bed was super comfy. The shower was large and great to use. The room was a good size and we found it to be clean and comfortable. The location was a little way from the main town centre, but we enjoyed this, as it was a nice walk each day to go to the various activities we had planned or to do some shopping. We liked the setting, backing onto some pine trees, and it was handy being close to a small shop, if we needed something small, like a carton of milk.

BrazilCheck in must be done in separate building as there is no reception on this one. There is not an elevator. If you stay in second floor, you will need to carry your bags upstairs. But these are not such a big issue.
The external appearance does not match the internal. Rooms are very beautiful and spacious. Good beds, space to organize everything and super nice bathroom. Parking is free of charge.
