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 reviewLovely property, room was nice and clean, comfortable bed, Nepresso machine in room. Basic breakfast but was nice to have some grab and go items. Restaurant in lodge next door was great for dinner. Would recommend.
Not an issue for us but you do have to walk up one flight of stairs to reception/guest rooms.

Would have liked a bit more selection for breakfast. It was a basic continental breakfast. Still better than nothing.

Verified reviewNice wooden house. Sauna.
We were woken up by people both days. As a result, we did not rest properly. The noise insulation of the building and the rooms is non-existant. Given the exorbitant price we paid, I find this quite disappointing.

Verified reviewCheck in was seamless, the guy working there was really nice. The room was spacious and had an amazing view. The bathroom was enormous. Hot tub much appreciated. Breakfast was basic but fresh. The pillows were the comfiest I've ever slept on.
No recycling in the room, our first one like this since being in Canada. You may miss AC, we felt the room was fine without it.
Thank you so much for your review, we will work on getting a recycle station in the main area.

Verified reviewI was very impressive about this place.
The only thing is that the restaurant was closed the day that we visited it and we had to head town to have dinner, but it was ok to drive to town.
Thank you so much for your kind words

Verified reviewLovely facility and room.
Location was a long distance from town, and an email was sent with directions to enter building with a code for the door. The place seemed deserted when we arrived and had a hard time figuring out which door to enter. Dinner options not good in nearby resort. Breakfast fell short of expectations. Staff person arrived after us and never saw him again until breakfast. You cannot pull your car close to unload and must climb stairs with bags to enter.

Verified reviewNice hot tub, very clean, though a tad too hot for some. Unlimited tea and coffee in lounge area.
The room was quite small for 4 of us, limited space for bags. Room was only made up for 2 people in terms of cups, towels etc, despite booking being for 4. The lounge was such a nice area, but was used predominately by 2 families with loud young children, so could not use it as a relaxation space in allocated hours.
Anthony, than you for the review, sorry to hear the room wasn't up to your standard, we do have some larger rooms, the family suite and the Loft room that can accommodate 4 people a bit more spacious and the suite actually has 2 separate bedrooms. Im sorry the kids were loud, we try to keep everyone from being loud and disturbing but sometimes that is not possible.

Verified reviewThe location is beautiful and peaceful, surrounded by nature, and the room itself was clean and reasonably comfortable.
Check-in was a nightmare. The reception closes at 7 PM, and this was not communicated ahead of time. When I arrived, the front door was locked and required a code I was never given. There were no signs or instructions anywhere. I had to knock repeatedly and was lucky that another guest heard me and let me in. The breakfast was another disappointment. Despite being included in the price, it was extremely limited and low quality—definitely not acceptable for a stay costing CAD 500 per night. I even saw a guest bring their own eggs and cream cheese because those basic items weren’t available. Also, the room had no air conditioning, which made it quite uncomfortable during warm weather.
Hello Carlos, thank you so much for your review, very much appreciated. We send 3 emails out with instructions on how the check in works and we even send a text on the day of arrival on how the self check in works when you arrive after opening hours of the reception. I am sorry that you missed all of them, perhaps your email or phone numbers was entered wrong when you were filling out the reservation details on booking.com or they ended up in your spam folder. the breakfast is exactly what we advertise on the website , continental we have juices water milk granola cereal, muffins bread jam, peanut butter etc banana bread and Belgian waffles plus Nespresso coffee and tea. Rooms do not have air conditioning, the temperature drops at night to a very pleasant 18 degrees celcius and all rooms have fans in them to create some air flow and all rooms have sliding doors you can open and they have screens to keep the bugs out. I am sorry you didn't enjoy your stay with us.
