Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do 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 or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

The stairs leading up to the apartment were a little bit steep, and the linoleum on the treads in somewhat rough shape... not a problem for us but could be tricky for those with more limited ability (though I suppose they wouldn't be booking a loft with stairs anyways!).
So many things to like! The place was in an awesome location right on the Cabot Trail, close to beaches, trail and restaurants/grocery store in Ingonish. The apartment itself was completely separate and private, spotlessly clean and very cozy with thoughtful decor and details. The place was also super well equipped with absolutely everything you could need for your stay. Highly, highly recommend the Ingonish Loft, and will absolutely return if/when we're in the area again. Thanks Noelle!

The stairs are a bit steep, and one needs to be aware of it.
The loft is very spacious, and has a lot of charm. The tight kitchen has everything one might need, and Noelle thought about all the small details. Excellent WI-FI. Loved it.

Nothing comes to mind.
Noelle's loft was immaculate and well appointed. It's conveniently located to some great hikes or walks on some beautiful sand beaches. She has most anything you would need in the kitchen for preparing meals. The bathroom was spotless. We loved the loft and would absolutely stay again.

The main entrance is a bit musty smelling . More than likely a dehumidifier would solve that issue.

The stairs going up to the loft are a bit tight and tricky if you are trying to avoid a two-level location. The kitchen worked well for us but is a little tight.
Location and super-cleanliness were top points. It was also very private and quiet.

A few minor things that would not prevent us from staying here again: The shower pressure was a bit weak, and shower doors tended to slide open. The stairs to the unit could be a challenge for some, but we were fine.
Wonderful place to stay in the park. We had everything we needed, and felt like home. It was quiet and peaceful. The host was great, and helpful. We hope to stay here again in the future!

This little gem is the perfect home base for Cape Breton adventures year round! Excellent location right on the Cabot Trail, hugged by the national park and just down the road from Cape Smokey, I can't imagine a better spot! Communication from the hosts was incredible, from start to finish they were quick to respond and happy to help with anything at all, they make you feel like family all while completely respecting your space and privacy. The apartment has everything your could need, all amenities, fully stocked kitchen and bathroom and everything is wrapped in a warm, cozy and personal touch that makes you feel at home. So happy we found this place for a friend's weekend getaway to hit the ski hill. Can't wait to stay again sometime!

Noelle, the host/owner was super nice, kind, and very patient as I locked myself out 2 of the 3 nights we were there. I loved that this property had a separate bedroom as I usually am awake much earlier than my husband so I could make coffee in the morning without waking him. It was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. There is a beautiful view from the bedroom window.
