Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

CanadaRooms are dated. Carpet needs replacement. Self-served foods in breakfast room need more hygienic presentation..hands-free access, tongs, etc. Remember: hospitality is all about a friendly, welcoming, appreciative attitude.
Location was central to restaurants and most services were within a 10 minute walk. Comfortable bed. Sufficient hot water. Modest complimentary breakfast. Cleaning staff (especially Florida) were hard working. This is a family run operation which could be better organized...check-in and check-out processes were chaotic. Koral offers an excellent 4 hour local features tour...informative, enthusiastic, comprehensive.

United KingdomThey say quiet hours are between but yet both mornings at 6.15am we were woken up by all the guests getting down for breakfast. The walls are so thin we can hear everybody's conversation in the dining area, the foyer or when checking in throughout the door. Whatever you did in the lobby whether it was getting hot water for tea or using the microwave, John senior would be watching you and making comments about the cost of things, which made most things uncomfortable. Telling people how expensive teabags were, telling people he'd be expecting a tip left at the end of the stay etc. When we checked in we were told we were his neighbour and so we best be quiet, we are quiet respectful people anyway but the walls so thin and the bed so noisy and creaky it was impossible to stay silent. We only needed to move an alarm while laying laying bed or turn over and the bed creaked so loud. This usually wouldn't have bothered us and we'd have got on with it but because he'd commented about being so quiet it left us feeling on eggshells the entire stay. We made a conscious effort to be unbelievably polite and friendly to John throughout the stay but still felt like we were intruding into his house rather than feeling like we were staying in a hotel. When checking out John senior put a receipt under our noses for us to pay. I asked why. He wasn't able to give me a reason just said that I needed to pay it. I said I'm happy to pay for it once I know what it is for but I'm not comfortable with signing something that doesn't have any information on. He then gave up asking us to sign it but told others I was refusing to sign it so I immediately responded saying that wasn't the case and that I simply asked what I was signing before I sign.
Amenities were as expected, no better no worse. Shuttle service and free basic breakfast (very limited dietary requirements weren't catered for). Day 2 by 7am there wasn't even boiled eggs so one of us being gluten free couldnt have any breakfast. Location was great.

BelgiumI find it very difficult to rate this accommodation, since Churchill is situated in a very remote part of Canada, where life is not easy and many businesses have to get the main part of their income out of the short period of Polar Bear season. Therefore I don't want to be too critical, but to be honest: The place is a little bit run down. Carpet and furniture are intact but well used. Communal areas and rooms are small and not very comfortable. But this fact doesn't matter much, since most guests are here to see Polar Bears and not to experience luxury. In fact, this accommodation corresponds with the authentic frontier character of Churchill.
This is a hostel style accommodation. The managers, John sr. & John jr. are very experienced and will do everything to help their guests not to get lost or attacked by Polar Bears. The room maid Florida is the sunshine of this Inn, taking care with love for all guests. Complementary airport shuttle was flexible and important. Simple but sufficient breakfast. Possibility to rent vehicles at reasonable prices: Our GMC Sierra 4x4 was awesome and allowed us to explore the many surrealistic sights in the area (for example an abandoned rocket launch site) at ower own pace.
