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...).

United States of AmericaThe location is in the industrial area, not in Squamish. When I checked after realizing our mistake, it looks like there are similarly priced places in town. The staff is pretty apathetic, they can't help with any questions about the area. I think we may have made the mistake of choosing this place because of the name "Mountain Retreat: thinking it's a base for hiking and getting info about hiking trails. We were wrong. When we arrived they sent us to a room that wasn't made up yet. (We now know that motels don't change bedspreads or blankets!) They won't take debit cards or cash, They only have a liquor store, no grocery store. There are elevators to get to the rooms which take a long time. You can only use the stairs going down not up so you are stuck waiting for the elevators. It got crowded on the weekend. If you have a car and this is the best deal you can get, it's decent, but if you can - I suggest finding an option in Squamish.
The room is a good size, clean and there is covered free parking. there is a refrigerator and microwave in the room. There is an ice machine. There is also a small pool, water slide, and jacuzzi, but we didn't use them.

CanadaI did not appreciate an encounter with a lady in the parking lot. I parked my vehicle in the covered parking area and was heading to the hotel lobby doors and realized this lady had walked from the entrance to the covered parking where she stood as I drove in, up to the front of the hotel near the lobby door. She watched me park and waited until I got closer and questioned me if I am eating at the restaurant or staying at the hotel. I said I was staying at the hotel but thought it odd to be asked that so I asked her why she is asking. She said this is private property. It bothered me since it was obvious I was heading directly into the hotel/restaurant building. I was only a few feet from the lobby door at that point. There was nothing about my vehicle or my appearance that could have implied I did not have business there. I proceeded up to my hotel room and shortly after I came down with my bags to check out and the same lady was behind the front desk. So she worked there but did not wear a uniform like the other hotel staff. She took my room key and said an invoice will be emailed. And that was it. No “thank you, hope you enjoyed your stay. Hope you come again”…nothing. Whatever her role/position at the hotel is, I think if a parking problem exists at the property it could be handled better. A more professional approach would have completely changed the entire interaction for me. Also, some friendly communication goes a long way in the hospitality business.
The beds were comfortable and room was clean.

CanadaThe bed/mattress was too soft for me and it threw my back out. There was no kettle in the room so I had to heat water in the coffee pot.
The water slide is not very tall but it's very fast. I was able to take my bike to the room. The elevator is large enough to fit my bike in. The fridge in the room was good.

CanadaThere wasn't any "cleaning needed or do not disturb" sign so I didn't get that service. Had to ask for new towels. There were also used towels that were forgotten in the bathroom from the previous guests (hidden behind the shower curtain). Wifi not the best so I was happy I didn't have to work from that hotel during my stay.
The pool was a nice bonus. Massive slide and a hot tub. Beds were comfortable. Staff was super friendly. Can't complain!

United States of AmericaNo big disappointments; its a budget hotel and you get what you pay for. So no complaints there.
Value for money especially if you did not want to spend a fortune staying in whistler. The location is secluded but very pretty, surrounded by rock mountains. We used the room only to sleep, we were out and about the rest of the day. ANd for that purpose, it was great.

CanadaThe mattresses need replacing. Our 7 yr old mentioned his sleep was not good cause the mattress ( on the hideaway bed) was too flompy. Our King sized mattress was ok. It would have been good to know at booking that they had pool towels available to save the space in our packing.
Staff were very helpful and the pool was the perfect temperature for little ones.
