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.).

CanadaNoise level of other guests, could hear people talking, snoring, tv blaring at night. Also accused of stealing a remote which I did not receive in the first place. Room was extremely dated.

CanadaAlthough the restaurant menu was good, we wish it would have included some local type dishes (none of the restaurants appeared to offer local dishes ...). Although the room had a good-size kitchen, a larger counter would have had better space for the cook-top (placed below when not in use), and a larger table would be preferred since the microwave took up half of it. The parking was a bit tight - along the front of the motel, but more parking was possible off the side street to the Info Centre.
The location was perfect; a short drive from the ferry and a couple of minutes walk to the Tourism Info Centre - which was located near the water with a nice green-area and a paved walking trail around the nearby school field. There were also both a large and a small grocery store in the same area, as well as a couple of restaurants - and others within a short drive. The motel has its own restaurant which we used for breakfast and several other meals because it was convenient. Considering this is a motel, it was quiet in the evenings. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating!!

CanadaMy room didn’t have a view and was a little small, but this wouldn’t stop me from staying there again. I like how they have planted flowers and shrubs to make the place look good!
This is a family owned business and they are working hard to make everyone comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. They have ripped out all the old carpets from the 1970’s, and replaced it with laminate. The room smelled fresh and clean.

CanadaTold to not park in the lot in front of the rooms, but a later guest with a huge white pick up truck parked right in front of our room later in the evening and stayed there all night and morning, making it very difficult for us to load our car up in the morning. Hugely inconsiderate, and we have another reservation there in a few days. Why is this no parking policy not enforced?

I would recommend the Sea Raven and would stay there again. It met our expectations, clean, friendly staff, not fancy but functional. If you want a resort stay in Haida Gwaii, the Sea Raven may not be for you. But for a layover or a base for exploring, it's great.

CanadaParking is a bit tricky and check-in times don't coordinate well with ferry times. We arrived and had to pay an extra 30 dollars to get into the room after an 8-hour night ferry.
Location is excellent, nice view. Clean rooms and the staff is very friendly.

SwedenThat my booking had disappeared and when I should check out in the morning before my boattrip it was nobody in the office. The staff and I had decided to meet at 7.30 because I should leave my suitcase there cause the boattrip and nobody was there. That wasn't good.
My booking was gone so I almost not got a room but it was one last over luckely enough. I got a good room with a kitchen and bathroom and that was perfekt after the starting problem. SeaRaven Motel is in a beautyful place with a viev over the ocean and it's close to everything in Queen Charlotte Village, thats good!

AustraliaThe ferry was delayed, and I tried to get information about late-check in before leaving Port Arthur. I was simply told it wasn't possible!! Not at all reassuring. When I, several other travellers, and a bus group arrived, it was very dark. We waited in the rain for someone to arrive to check us in, even though the motel had been rung by one of the guests as soon as the ferry docked. My room wasn't very clean - I even found someone elses pill bottle in a drawer! Even though I had the do-not-disturb sign up, someone came in to empty the garbage. But, they didn't give me any extra coffee pods!!
I loved having a coffee maker in my room - I didn't love not being able to get replacement pods during a four-day stay. The room was large, and I loved that I had a little porch I could breakfast on. The beds were comfortable, and the linen nice.

CanadaDistant car noise from the highway wasn't always nice, but not terribly intrusive. There was no tv, which some people might want.
The hosts were wonderful, friendly, helpful and welcoming. The room looked out on the golf course and came complete with a deer. The room had plenty of space for storing luggage, etc. Everything was spotless. Outside seating with a table for a glass of wine and a book. was a nice touch. There was access to a refrigerator to put your cooler items. The breakfast had a great selection and they accommodate vegetarian/vegan also. The omelette I had was absolutely delicious.
