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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

CanadaElevators extremely slow and only one set going to lobby. Hot water in shower took a long time to warm up. The breakfast included was okish, but a bit burnt and stale. Lobby was extremely cold, and hotel staff helpful. but lacked enthusiasm. Many unpleasant smells in hallways stairwells and just before get to main lobby
Spacious room, the bed was very comfortable, could always get juice and water, and great parking surveillance, prime location near lots of restaurants, pubs, cafe’s etc

CanadaFirst of all the entrance and lobby. I felt like in a bad motel. Second with all those machines the air still had a strange smell. Even worse in the garage in the elevator area.
A very good location, lots of machines inside, AC, dehumidifier, another one I don't know, good bad and toiletries

United KingdomIt felt a little tired in parts.
Don’t judge the book by its cover…it may look a little tired from the outside, the rooms are very generous, with everything you could possibly need during a stay. Very comfortable beds. free laundry and big bonus! Enough choice for breakfast, you could even take a packed lunch away with you. All staff were very friendly and helpful.

Better than expectations. Great welcome at reception. Big room with comfy bed, sofa, kitchenette; even a desk with computer and printer! Breakfast was adequate and plentiful. Not gourmet but enough to set you up for the day. Location was excellent; walking distance to attractions with plenty of restaurants and bars on the doorstep. Nice touches with USB charging ports in the room and nightlight in the bathroom. Free laundry with washing powder provided. Paid parking lot nextdoor.

The Business Inn is close to Parliament Hill and Rideau Canal. Perfect spot to visit all the main attractions. Breakfast was perfect for families, great choice and made it easy to make sandwiches for the day. Rooms were the size of small appartments. Perfect for families. We will be back.

United KingdomAs others have mentioned the outside of the building looks more modern than the inside. It doesn’t have built in air conditioning but does have air conditioning units Could have been a bit more environmentally friendly and had soap, shower gel and shampoo dispensers instead of old style individually packaged products and a recycling bin in each suite or on each floor or a notice asking guests to take glass, paper and plastic to the recycling bins in the breakfast room.
The Business Inn is in a good location with plenty of shops and restaurants and a short walk to the Parliament area and Byward Market. The free breakfast had a good range of options but we weren’t fans of the ready made hot breakfast sandwiches. Don’t be put off by the lack of seating in the breakfast room, there are another 2 large brighter rooms with windows. We had a one bedroom suite with a large balcony. The furniture was comfortable but a bit dated and there was also a desk with computer and printer. We paid extra for a nominated underground parking space but didn’t use the car while we were in Ottawa as we could walk to every where we wanted to visit. It was good to know that if we had used the car we would have a space to come back to. The staff were all friendly and helpful.

Isle of ManThe building is quite outdated and needs a bit of TLC. The positioning of our room meant we couldn’t access through reception, we had to walk round the back through the car park which was a bit unusual. The decor needs a bit of attention in my opinion, very outdated and a bit dark and dull.
The location was perfect. Plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby which was great. Within walking distance of the main areas, also bus stops just outside the hotel if you wanted to go a bit further. Having a kitchen in the room was handy for us as we could cook our own food if we needed. The room was kitted out with everything you could possibly need, from hoovers to washing baskets to fans, literally anything and everything.
