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.).

Verified reviewWe enjoyed the location and the little loft for the 9 year old. There was easy access to all the areas that we wanted to visit. The rooms were clean.
The places that we have stayed in the past were more accommodating in regards to staples in the kitchen, cleaning service, and resources. The kitchen was not as updated as we are used to.

Verified reviewA decent little place with a good shower, comfy beds and a nice seating area for eating and relaxing. Easy to check in and parking worked well. It was a good location between Canmore and Banff, allowing us to visit both without a long journey (less than 20 minutes).
The bear skin, stuffed beaver and canada goose upstairs were unsettling with no previous warning. Some flaws in facilities include the absence of a sink drainer and only one oven tray.

Only there one night, so cleaning fee meant it wasn’t cheap - but would be fine spread over a few days

Verified reviewThe location is very good
Upon arrival at 5 pm, the room was not cleaned. I had to wait 2.5 hours for it to be cleaned, which was done hastily and left a mediocre impression. There were no sheets for the bunk bed, and the bath soap was almost empty. Additionally, pipes were leaking at the stairwell. To make matters worse, a Southeast Asian man barged into the unit at 10 am on the last day, claiming it was his unit. This poor coordination between move-in and move-out procedures left me feeling frustrated.

Verified reviewUpstairs bed in mezzanine was very stained. Do not like having no front staff available. Will chose accommodation with personnel available next time. Very expensive for very little service.

Verified reviewGreat location just 8 minutes from Canmore and a short drive to Banff. Easy access to the highway. Ask for a room at the back to avoid highway noise. The unit was spacious with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The front bedroom has a balcony. There were toiletries provided. WiFi was good. Salt, pepper are provided and there was a good sharp knife. The unit was warm on one cold June day. We really appreciated the large washer and dryer and TV. Plenty of parking.
I needed to ask for the unit number and door access code. No toilet paper in one bathroom. One dish towel was provided but not enough for a four night stay. Some Teflon pots and pans were too scratched to use. An unexpected Xmas tree in the living room in June.

Verified reviewSuper convenient location for Banff National Park, Canmore, and IFP without the price tag, very clean, well equipped.
Heating seemed permanently on even when we turned to minimum, but opened a few windows and all was equalised.

Verified reviewThe Canmore location was great. The owner was swiftly getting back with questions and repairswhen our doorjam broke and toilet clogged the first day. The facility was clean. We loved being able to wash and dry clothes. Not having to buy bear spray was a bonus also.
Mugs were too small, and the air conditioners needed attention. We reported this when we left. He acted like they would make adjustments.
