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.).

No real staff on premises to assist you except between 4 and 6 pm at check in. In our case the desk staff was gone by 5:30. It seems the property would benefits from more consistent attention. Several items,eg curtain rides and closing mechanisms and towel holder bars in bathroom need repair.

Verified reviewIt was easy to enter code and find room after hours. I appreciated seeing the bottles of water in the refrigerator (I drank one of them). Beautiful view of water from living room. Liked the coffee machine. Reasonably easy to use.
A bit pricey

Verified reviewThe Inn was in a very great location, very quiet and great parking options! We loved the breakfast as well as the staff. They were just very warm and professional.
The Library room’s bathtub needs some renovation. The water gets clogged up for a shower even before you can get in (less than 15 seconds after you turn on the water), so you’re standing in at least ankle deep water the whole time. The whole Inn has a great idea for its decor, but details needs to be maintained properly so it is up to par with its concept.

Verified reviewCharming inn with a cozy and initimate vibe. Amit was a welcoming and knowledgable host taking care to ensure every detail of our stay was perfect. The breakfast was amazing and the lounge was a lovely setting to relax after a long day of site seeing at nearby Butchart Gardens.

Verified reviewLoved the history of the inn. The architecture was so beautiful. The room was very large and beautifully decorated. I stayed in the Governor's suite. Each window looked out onto an ocean view or garden view. The stairwell, which was beautiful, took me to the lovely dining room where I was served the most wonderful breakfast, which was included in the price! I was first able to taste the most delicious blueberry muffin, which they make from scratch. The menu gave a lovely choice of waffles, eggs Benny, two ways, bacon and eggs, or bagel with yogurt and fresh fruit. I chose bacon and eggs. Two poached eggs, two bacon, choice of toast (sourdough for me), and fresh fruit compote. A choice of juices and coffee or tea. 5-star absolutely. Upstairs, there was a sitting room that was breathtaking. The design was one of a kind for sure. The large windows looked across to the ocean. There is a charming little walkway out back of inn that takes you to a garden. The day was rainy, so I didn't get to really enjoy its full beauty. First and foremost, the staff are wonderful. Excellent hospitality given by all. This would be a wonderful place for a honeymoon couple or if you were celebrating an anniversary. I loved my stay here and would definitely come stay again. 5 star all the way! Thank you to The Latch Inn for a beautiful stay.
Absolutely nothing!
