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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

United KingdomParking instructions are confusing. When you find the parking there's only about 7 spaces. The other parking mentioned as being free is no longer free. We tried contacting the telephone number provided multiple times. They do not respond to messages or answer the phone (also confirmed by other guests). We paid over 250 CAD a night for a room that had a bed, a tiny shelf, a locker (with no lock on it), and a fan which looks like it had been stolen out of a pc. The temperature of the room on arrival (9pm) was 30 degrees Celsius. When we arrived, our room had been prepared for us but under the bed was filthy and there was a fork under there... And a knife left on top of our locker. The shared bathroom was dirty. The 3rd toilet was unusable as someone must have had a really bad stomach... The 2nd toilet door didn't shut as the lock was broken. So there was one usable toilet for all the men at the hostel. We also weren't provided with towels..we asked other guests and they said they should have been left on our bed. They were not. The kitchen was dirty and the sink was full of dirty plates. The 2nd night someone tried to get into our room. They had a booking which they showed me and the details were for the room we had been given. They had booked two rooms and the 2nd room they booked hadn't been cleaned... At all. They couldn't get in touch with any staff and had to change the bed sheets, clean the room themselves and share the bed... Shocking. There were towels left everywhere because there was nowhere assigned for people to put them. We stayed an uncomfortable 3 nights and only saw staff on the last night when the cleaners came and did their best to tidy up. They then gave us towels but they were stained. The front door to the building also isn't locked so anyone can walk in off the street. We've been traveling for 5 months and this was unfortunately the worst place we have stayed so far.
The location is great. Right in the heart of Canmore which is about a 20 minute drive from Banff. The WiFi works.

FranceI arrived in Canmore at 10 am in the morning and asked for luggage storage waiting for check-in in the afternoon. I sent a message and called many times, no one never answered. I spent two nights and I found the place very dirty. I was supposed to be bed number 1, when I arrived in the room, there was no bed sheets on my bed. I saw no staff at all. I chose another bed, that seemed ok. Some other beds had dirty sheets from previous stays I guess. There was an unmade bed with no guest when I arrived. There was food packaging under the beds. The floor was dusty and full of hair. The garbages were full in the room and in the female bathroom for the duration of my stay. There was even a balloon made of a condom :) Tones of dishes in the sink and the dishwasher.
