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.).

CanadaThe hotel is doing some renovation obviously but without informing the clients in advance. We asked a quiet room and were settled on the main level. However, 8 o’clock in the morning, some workers already stood right out of our sliding door to the yard and talked. Had to close the curtain properly so we could keep our privacy. Also,the swimming pool is not opened to clients , lobby and hallway is dirty with lots of dust! There was a door with damage sign in vending room was opened but nobody watched or fenced out! if you are traveling with kids, you might have to be super cautions because the door is right besides of ice dispensing machine. Also, the most important, don’t drink the tap water, the water color is not clean but white.

CanadaThere was garbage or dirty laundry in front of many hotel rooms lining the hallways, the room and halls smelled of smoke and old air. The location was dismal and made us not want to ever visit Thunder Bay again. Woke up to police officers knocking on doors and questioning a child in the lobby. I could not believe what they had charged for the room, I felt absolutely taken advantage of for the price I paid as there was little availability in Thunder Bay and the price was reflective of the supply/demand rather than the value.

CanadaNo Gym, no access to pool during our stay due to closure. Due to renovations being in progress, our room was missing lighting (a lamp) and the floor had not been washed, there were sticky candy bits stuck on the floor. The tub had pink mould around the drainage and there was hair stuck in it from prior use. We asked for proper lighting and we’re told maintenance “would do what they could”, but never showed up to the room with it. we asked for the floor to be washed properly, left a message, but nothing was done about it.
Location, Room layout, comfortable bed.

United KingdomThere are renovations going on that weren't mentioned on booking which meant the nearest elevators were out of service. The pool was shut, most of the ice machines were out of order and the restaurant gets pretty bad reviews so we decided not to go. The room was pretty noisy considering the price and they still haven't refunded us or deposit despite leaving the room in good order. We've had better rooms in much less expensive hotels.
Very clean and in an interesting building. Decent enough room.

Canada- No shower on the first day because the plumbing wasn't completed - We were unaware that the room would not be refreshed on our second day, the bed not made and towels not changed - The room was clean but the bathroom floor could have been vacuumed before we arrived - The $150 rebate for the security deposit will not be refunded for 5 working days - Facilities are under renovations: no pool, large restaurant not available, noisy, untied,
It was a good location so we were able to travel around Thunder Bay with no trouble. The waitress was very helpful with the limited menu. I am gluten free and without her assistance I would have been unable to eat.

CanadaHotel staff was not very friendly upon greeting. The pool and fitness centre were both closed for renovations, and hotel staff said they didn’t get any notice of this. The property wasn’t very clean. There was some pieces of leaves and dirt at the entrance to our room. Full garbage bags were left in the hallway. There were visible crumbs under the bed and sticky spots on the desk, end table and window sill. When speaking to staff about the issues they responded with excuses and no actionable solutions.
The food in the restaurant was good, but very pricey. The bed was comfortable.

CanadaFirst night we came and I was told the room I booked (1 king bed- courtyard) was fully booked and because I had a dog with me there were no other rooms expect for 2 queen bed… which I did not want at all! This issue was resolved as they upgraded me to a 1 king bed drive up suite which is much appreciated and very convenient for moving luggage in the room!
Dog friendly! We stayed here 2 nights in a span of 2 weeks. We didn’t stay long at the hotel (arrived late and left very early). We drove from Toronto and this was a nice rest stop after a 15hr drive. Felt very safe, properly is clean and newly renovated. There are cheaper hotels but this place is worth it!
