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.).

CanadaHasn’t been updated in decades, some furniture was broken and bed mattress was poor quality. Not really a 2 Star ranking that they advertise. Taking all this into consideration they still charge a rate close to the nicer and modern 3 Star hotels in the area
Friendly staff and central location in town. Have a attached restaurant was excellent and the breakfast served was great.

CanadaHot, hot, hot, couldn't sleep, room was so hot. Bathtub and sink were scratched and rusting. Pretty hard to believe they don't refinish the tub and replace the bathroom sink in that condition. Front desk clerk could probably dress up a bit more but nice and friendly.
Quiet room , nice and quiet. Nice soaps and shampoos provided. TV worked good. Nice good restaurant on site , just down the hall from front desk.

CanadaThis property is in need of major renovation & cleaning. Wifi only available for 1 device at a time. Cost is way too much for the room/facilities provided. Mattresses and furniture in the room are stained and smell awful. Apart from location there is nothing good about the hotel presently. I would not recommend this property.

CanadaStaff was polite and helpful!
It’s a rough hotel in a rough neighbourhood. It was cheap and central so I stayed there but likely won’t again as I’d rather pay the extra money for a better hotel. Staff was nice but comforter was stained with cigarette burns, overall it was not very clean, very dated and beaten up decor, but kinda worth staying once to remind me that sometimes the cheapest option is not the best option.

CanadaNot sure why anyone would stay here. Canadian North cancelled my flight and failed to find accomodation for me and this is all that was left in Yellowknife. It or sleep outside. So I chanced it. *Smells of smoke *3 flights of stairs no elevator *People in the lobby drunk and arguing *$173 for room! *Pizza box in my the fridge which was unplugged *Coffee pot still full from the previous guest with the pouch in the coffee machine *Sheets, yuck! *Towels are literally pink and so so old Worst place one could ever stay if they are sane. I ended up putting my own sheets on the bed, and using my own towels and toiletries. You might read this review and think I'm exaggerating. But trust me, go somewhere else. It is as bad as I say it is. Please, do not bring your kids here.
