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.).

CanadaLots of traffic noise. Also noisy (inconsiderate) people in room above us. No A/C. Old fashioned and a little rundown. Cleanliness is about 8 out of 10.

CanadaI think what we didn't like is our room has no table atleast a small one. the pillows is too soft.and I think a little bit pricey.I think the reception area needs a bit of cleaning and presentable.
what we've like is first the location is perfect even its a little bit noisy because along the highway.second thing, the view is along the sea harbor and a beautiful park down the road that you can swim and paddle board, small town but you will find what you need. The receptionist is super friendly and she clean the room everyday.

CanadaThe tip function when paying for your stay. Why would we tip when we only arrived a few minutes ago and haven't even been to the room? I was shocked by this.
The room was adequate but decor and furnishings are tired. The price was a bit high considering the season and the next day we were in Victoria for $70 less per night. The owner was very friendly.

Canadavery dated, the road noise is constant and the rooms smell strongly of air freshener. We had a family emergency and couldn’t find another hotel for love or money being a long weekend, we paid the same price in another hotel the next evening that we did here, it was over $200 for the night. Fine for a newer hotel with amenities like pools and free breakfast, but not so much for somewhere so dated and in need of TLC
Friendly host, clean rooms

CanadaA bit noisy as it’s right on the Hwy. But with the door closed it’s not that bad. They need to upgrade the electric system. Not enough plug-ins, the TV, mini-fridge, and microwave all plugged into a power bar, no plug-in in the bathroom, we blew a breaker when I plugged in my hair dryer into it as well. Staff was very quick to fix it. Bed and pillows were super comfortable. Very clean. Great water pressure in the shower.

Canadaeverything else is OK
Breakfast was provided by an affiliated restaurant which cost me $9 per head, and then I knew that at the restaurant you can buy the same breakfast for $6, so it is 50% more expensive if you get the add-on breakfast through the motel. :(
