How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Room was small with no AC in late summer, bed was creaky, TV didn't wasn't connected to anything, sparse and boring decor.
Quiet area, free parking, snacks and water provided, upgraded to ensuite bathroom, cheaper than hotels.

If you are a light sleeper like me, you can hear everything from the house. Conversations and laughs started before 7am. Room was clean, but there were some spider webs. I also needed to clear the washroom floor as there was a lot of hair from the other guests. Not cool.
Overall good! Comfortable beds, good location for what I needed.

Expensive for a small room with a shared bathroom, but happy that this was available to us on short notice.
The bedroom was small, but beautifully decorated with crown mouldings. Location very convenient and would likely return for an overnight stay

There is very poor soundproofing, one could hear every time a door unlocked for another guest at a different part of the building.
Very conveniently located in relation to Metrotown Station, the mall, and multiple convenience stores. Facilities are comfortable and very good value for the money

It was all good however (personal preference), I would have loved to have a fan in the room. I opened the window to catch the cool breeze at night.
The property was close to everywhere I wanted to go. Walking distance to Burnaby Central Park, the Metropilis Mall, Kingsway Str/Ave?? for lots of restaurants choices, T&T supermarkets, Walmart, & the Train (a little further but close nonetheless).

We misread the description. We don't care about the shared bathroom. No one clean the bathroom. Found a hair ball in the bath drain. Well, it did say it was a shared bath, but we did not see it until after we paid for it.
Location is great.

The internet did cut out repeatedly, but it could always reconnect right away, so there was no need to ask for help.

Needed washcloths and an extra hand towel or 2. Only had the 4 bath towels. Also the bedroom nearer to the bathroom could use a power strip near the nightstand for plugging in chargers.
Very comfortable for 4 of us. Beds were super!

Nice clean house near the sky train station and metrotown mall. Great Asian food nearby. Good opportunity to meet other travelers its kinda like a hostel with your own room.

The place is very unpersonal, there are no pictures or any decor which makes it a bit unwelcoming.
The room is small, but has a built-in wardrobe which helps to put everything away. We unexpectedly had a private bathroom which was fantastic! Everything was clean. There also was a washing machine and a dryer that we could use. The HighTrain Station Metrotown is only 7 minutes by foot and take you to the waterfront in 20 minutes.
