Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

Canadathe kitchen was missing equipment making it non-functional. There wasn't included breakfast as listed. The "bar" downstairs was Saturday night a techno club, so everything in our room was vibrating with the bass. The quiet hours made no sense as the bar does not comply with these.
A nice place to stay with friends as a younger group

CanadaWay too over priced for a hostel. I was able to book my own hotel room for the same price. It’s a great hostel I loved it, I just don’t understand how I can get a quiet private hotel for the same price as a loud, busy hostel?
Amazing location, great facilities! Kitchen, lockers, bathroom with showers, privacy curtains, towels. I especially loved that the female rooms were the same price as the mixed room! Super safe environment:)

CanadaThere was a pub under, so we felt noisy temporarily or sometimes.
The location was the best, it was located in the center of the street, and there were some stores near there.

AustraliaThe room was an okay size but the king bed was too big meaning we were left with hardly any space for luggage. The lobby and kitchen smelled funny. TV in the bedroom didn’t work. Would have been nice to have a small bin in the bedroom.
It wasn’t actually noisy overnight despite our room being one of the closest to the bar downstairs - perhaps just a quieter Saturday night, the music stopped by about 11pm. Didn’t meet any staff, it’s all self check-in and out which is fine. Room and bathroom cleanliness was decent. Nice touch to have a hairdryer, soap, shampoo and conditioner in the bathroom.

CanadaNoisy, not many amenities. Small kitchen for how many people are there. No vibe. Basically just a place to sleep which was fine.

Excellent location, at the very centre of Canmore. Nice and helpful team working there. Iconic, historic place with plenty cues about the past of the place and its importance for the locals.

Very conveniently located in downtown Canmore. Easy to walk to and from nearby bars and restaurants.

GermanyCleanliness of kitchen sink. Loud beeping of access code pads to get into the rooms (avoidable with earplugs). Small and not really comfy common areas.
The bathroom and room were clean. Shampoo, shower gel and conditioner were provided in the showers, always enough soap and toilet paper. Very easy check-in and check-out. Wasn't as loud as expected from the bar below the hostel, so you could sleep very well (maybe because we stayed there during winter and during weekdays).

CanadaNeed more options for female-only, didn't feel overly safe with one of our roommates and he was very inconsiderate. One bed was also missing a curtain which would have been terrible if I hadn't asked to switch. I think the space is too small to be considered a "party hostel". Doesn't really allow people who want quieter time to get it.
The location was absolutely awesome and the staff was super friendly. It was also very clean.

I liked the people that were their, met two wonderful ladies and that we can keep our own food/cook whenever we want. The location was beautiful! Right in downtown. For the price of two nights it wasn't so bad!

CanadaThe unlocked 🔓 door into my room frontdoor even didnt work ..and over packed rooms with to much air freshners leaking on everything was gross and was right by my head i unplugged it as my lungs 🫁 couldn't handle it I am Is asthmatic but that's besides the point. Some girls' bf were staying in the lobby for free clearly on drugs, and I mean, we know it's a party hostel but clearly not a trap hostel location. Very odd stuff is going on . Few things I definitely don't recommend paying for .spent most of my time in the suv to do my reading as it doesn't give you that warm chill vibe like some locations It's nice to see the kitchen done better as it's just thrown to the wolves with no structure. Be cool to have the lobby not look like it's a homeless shelter .If you're going to run a hostel in the heart of a beautiful mountain town. Then, use some of your money to put it back into the building. This is a place where people are excited to travel not be grossly disappointed. Granted half the people are drunk so you don't notice but still room for improvement. Thanks for the stay
The location is perfect 🥰. Staff were helpful when you could locate them .meeting nice fellow travelers is always a plus .
