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):
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.).

FranceThe rooms are getting old. We were in a family loft. The upper bedroom was very hot and the window partly locked. Too expensive for what it has to offer.
The location is very nice, especially in the main building where you can eat.

CanadaThe property is dated and needs a lot of upgrades. the toilet surface near the floor had not been cleaned and the carpets were stained. The neighbours were loud and the rooms aren't sound proof but that's not the resort's fault. The hotel is approaching a 4 star.
Beautiful location on the ocean, the grounds are on their way to being restored and maintained. The restaurant has gorgeous views of the water and decent food. The salad with chicken was surprisingly delicious. Great drinks and price points. The pool has been renovated and is perfect! A washroom nearby would be a great addition. The fitness centre and laundry were perks. The bedding and towels were luxurious.

CanadaPrevious owners didn't keep the property up. But new owners are doing a great job bring this awesome resort up to 5 star standards.
Restaurant and pub won't be in operation until mid-July 2025. For breakfast we enjoyed coffee, muffins and yogurt while sitting on the sun deck overlooking Discovery Passage.

The breakfast was in a great central location. A continental breakfast was provided, but nothing hot. One problem was the coffee; one machine for several people.

Canada-The way the hotel is advertised with the photo, I expected our room (all rooms) to be located facing the water. We also expected there would be beach access due to the photos and there was not. Instead, there were other buildings on the property set behind the beautiful photo of the main hotel. (*All the hotels we stayed at during our trip on the island showed one thing on Booking.com and then fell short upon arrival. Disappointing but noted as something to be aware of upon future bookings). -The restaurant had good food. However, due to new management and on going renovations, there was construction happening during dinner. The outdoor patio/railing was being worked on, therefore, saws, drilling, cutting were happening while we eating and in the dining space. It would have been nice if this area was blocked off so guests were not in the middle of it. -Ice machine is located at the restaurant. If staying in a different building on site, you have to walk to the kitchen. -It would be nice if rooms had a small microwave for convenience. All in all, we wish the hotel and staff great success and smooth renovations/updates as they grow. The location and potential are there! Our stay at this hotel and other hotels during our week on the island, I learned a lot about our family's needs while traveling. Thank you!
-Easy check in and check out. -The location on the water was beautiful. -There was an outdoor pool. Unfortunately we didn't have time to use it. -Our kids enjoyed the loft in our room. A separate area for them to sleep was essential and nice.
