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 reviewThe motel is very well reachable and has sufficient parking space. We wanted to stay in the upper floor and could do so upon arriving. The receptionist was very friendly and check in as well as check out was easy.
We weren't pleased with our neighbors (noise) but for a night it didn't bother us that much.

Verified reviewThe staff was very friendly and let us check in early (about 1:30 pm) The beds were quite comfortable, and the bedding smelled freshly laundered (something I have never experienced before in a hitel/motel stay) Given the age of the building, everything was cleaner and in better condition than I would have expected.
The bath towels provided were tiny and thin, and my socks got dirty from walking around on the laminate floor, so it obviously could have been cleaner.

Verified reviewThere were no breakfast (or did I miss it?) and the room was very clean, just perfect for my stay, I have problems with walking so the very nice woman at the desk got me a room on the main floor right away. It is very quiet, very nice place to stay.

Verified reviewThe bedding and towels were clean. The room was in need of a good paint job and the floors needed washing. I do not believe we had maid service as the bed remained unmade, nor the room tidied during our two night stay.
See my comments above.

Verified reviewClean, lots of space in the room. Directly across a beautiful beach with a long walkway where you can walk for hours. The room was equipped with a coffee maker, small fridge and microwave. It was quite hot in Campbell River and the portable air conditioner did a good job of making the room comfortable when I could run it.
Smoking is not permitted in the rooms, but each room is setup with a chair and ashtray directly outside the room. The smell of cigarette smoke and weed came in my room via the air conditioner intake and when I ran the bathroom fan. Even though it was quite hot, I had to turn both off to avoid the smoke.

Verified reviewFriendly staff, simple good motel. Reasonably priced.
Wifi barely works. We stayed twice, the second time there was still a sandwich left in the microwave and the coffee pot wasn't clean. Otherwise the room was clean.
