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 StatesWe booked a queen/king bed. Got a double. Parking a little down the street.
Good value. Room was decent sized. Had fridge. Had elevator, very close to downtown which had good restaurants and breweries. Very resourceful college in figuring out how to make some money over the summer break.

CanadaWould be nice to have been told or have a handout at check in with when the pool would be available for guests/recreation as we didn’t realize until arriving that the times would be pretty limited and not really good for children. The beds being quite firm and uncomfortable is really the only complaint we would make.
Excellent value for money. The the facilities were above expectations and you can’t beat the location in Antigonish.

CanadaThe property was great, but two different staff unlocked my door and came in while I was in there, without knocking. The first staff I can see, as she thought I checked out, but I had another nights stay. The front desk apologized their error. The second staff came in later in the afternoon and I was in the bathroom. Thank goodness the door was shut. I heard him open the door. I thought it was my son, so I wasn’t alarmed and said Hi. He said oh I think I have the wrong room. I said ok. He didn’t leave. I called out hi, what can I help you with. He said sorry wrong room and then left. I was quite shocked as I was still in the bathroom with the door closed. Nothing was touched. I assume it was a staff person, but if it wasn’t then someone else had access to my room. My door was locked, so whoever it was had a keycard. I didn’t tell the front desk as I was trying to get ready to go out at the time. I just let it go, but it really is important that people knock first. Neither staff did, they just barged in.
Clean, nice bathroom, two rooms.

CanadaParking wax a little far away, approx. 100 meters, air conditioning was not easily adjustable (not sure if I could control it)
They had 2 separate rooms, I was not expecting that, when you have children that goes on my list (I could take a quiet night break after a long driving). They had a full refrigerator. Hot water, comfy beds.

CanadaI was very surprised to be greeted by the smell of cannabis filtering down the hallway on the first floor on both days of our stay. This was really unacceptable & disappointing. As an alumni of the university I found this particularly disheartening. We did mention this to front desk staff.
The facility was very clean and washrooms well supplied. Kitchenette came in handy for morning coffee. It was quiet, & the location is great; walking distance to downtown area. The staff were friendly & helpful.
