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.).

CanadaIt’s a simple, very clean and homey place that you can stay to rest and sleep without any worries. The host is very quick to respond to our requests and accommodate our needs. The location is very accessible, short drive to must see attractions in Nanaimo.

FranceThe only downpart is the location, it's a little outside from the downtown area, and there are 2 buses going downtown, which one is not frequent.
The place is spotless, either the shared area, the bathroom, and the room. The staff is very welcoming. They provide everything needed, shower products, coffee, tea, water, and even 2 cereal bars.

CanadaThe shared bathroom was a slight inconvenience but I knew about it up front going into it. I do not fault the hosts for this. Everything was excellent.
The hosts had clearly put a lot of care and attention into welcoming visitors. I was greeted at the door after 10:00 p.m. with a handshake and a welcome. There were several food items such as a banana, granola bar, coffees, teas and water bottles

GermanyNice stay in a friendly neighbourhood with a little trail just a few streets afar. Very comfortable bed and the room was clean however a little bit small. For one night I had nothing more to ask for. The hosts were so kind, they even helped me with my baggage twice and accompanied me to the bus station. Thanks a lot for that again.

CanadaTea and coffee provided as well as snacks for the night and morning. Towels, robes and bathroom necessities were all available and the bed was very comfortable. The host did exactly what he needed to do and then let us have our space, there isn’t much I would really change honestly. We spent one night there and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Water bottles and mini chocolates were also provided.

CanadaThe location is a wee bit tricky as it is on a small frontage road. Make sure you check your google maps for the address and magnify it to see exactly how to find the home. Once you know, it’s easy to find!
Our hosts have a lovely home that is exceptionally clean … with thick bathrobes and towels and a VERY comfortable bed. There is a small kitchen area outside of the small bedroom in the hallway with a microwave, fridge, toaster, etc. They generously offer coffee, tea and even morning breakfast treats. The “care cupboard” in the bathroom was a delightful surprise… all the first aid items you might need unexpectedly! Very thoughtful. So much care and attention has gone into providing a lovely stay. Much appreciated!
