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.).

CanadaWe were visiting our grandson who just started university. He was having some problems And we needed to be close to him. We asked to d tr d out check-out time they said they can do it for 1 hour and they’d charge us $50. Disgusting. Then we asked if there was availability for another night Znd we were told there was room but he cost would be higher by $40. Disgusting! I’ve stayed at Days Inns during my travels and was always treated well. I’ll never stay at this one ever again.
Office clerk was friendly and informative.

CanadaPlease train your front office Staff. This is my second time in this hotel location. We had a great stay last time. Staff were good and nice. This time, seems like staff are just plainly doing their 8 hours shift. Kind of. I travelled with my family with a kid. It was frustrating because morning on our second day of stay before we exit the hotel, we requested to tidy up our room and when I say tidy up, I'm expecting a sets of fresh new towels. At least. We came back twice to our hotel to freshen up, there's no new fresh towels. So we head out back thinking that maybe when we get back to our room we will have a nice, cozy and definitely a new sets of fresh towels. BUT NOTHING. OUR ROOM IS STILL LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME WHEN WE LEFT. So I asked the lady at the front for a new sets of towels and delivered them to our room. But she only gave us BATH TOWELS. So I phone the front desk and asking for face and foot bath towels. Those small ones. I was so mad because I didn't expect her that she wants me to pick them up at the front desk. Picking up the towel is not a big deal for me. Here's my points why I was so pissed. 1. First thing in the morning, I personally requested at the front desk to tidy (make) up our room 2. We already came back twice during the day head back out until we came back in the evening but still our room looks exactly the same when we left 3. It was fun and a tiring day for us so we expect a cozy and clean room to relax 4. I was told to go down and pick-up the towel at the front desk. This made furiously mad! 5. Property has only one elevator for all the guests staying in the hotel. Elevator is old and slow (but that's fine because that's not the issue) so it will take us forever to go down and going up 6. I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND AND BOOK TO THIS HOTEL IN THE FUTURE. I don't mind paying extra for a hotel that has a reliable people that taking care for guests basic request.
My hotel criteria is always the location and value for money and (customer) service. Hotel location is fairly good.

CanadaThe ice machine wasn't on so we had no ice. The fridge had someone's leftovers in it when we arrived. The front desk lady couldn't figure out how to remove the taxes for my native status.
The room was a great size. We got a king. The room was comfortable. It was easy to park the car and get in and out of the location. The staff were very nice.

CanadaThe rooms we stayed in needs some attention. The shower heads are leaking, the room did not have sufficient lighting. Wifi is unstable. We requested an emailed receipt from the front desk and was told we had to request it through Booking App. That process is not easily accessible and it directs you back to Days Inn instead.
The front desk staff was welcoming

CanadaThe ground floor rooms felt like they needed to be remodeled. As well as the TV quality was terrible as well.
We stayed for a week. When we first arrived we were in the ground floor. The rooms had much to be desired, so we asked the staff what they could do and they jumped at the opportunity to move and assist us. We were then moved inside where the rooms were much more what we would expect. Good value and clean room.
