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.).

Food was very good as well and served in attractive dining areas. We didn’t participate in any of the activities offered, but those who said they were very fun.

Breakfast was good, but food at the restaurant was bland. Rooms could do with refurbishing.

The a/c really didn’t cool the cottage off to get a great nights sleep. Would have been helpful to have it on and working prior to our arrival. Also a golf cart or equivalent to shuttle luggage from check in to accommodation would be recommended as some places are a bit of a trek

Verified reviewThe location is very scenic and rural. So it's very peaceful and quiet. The WiFi was very good. The room was rustic but it fit the setting since it's a Lodge in a park like surrounding. There were two towels which is standard but that's not always the case. The shower was hot but took some adjustment and time to get it just right.The bed was very comfortable. I wish there were more quality pillows. The room is very large and so is the bathroom. The buffet dinner was very good and the staff was super friendly and attentive. The breakfast buffet was delicious. Highlight of the stay. Especially the staff. Thanks for your hospitality!
The AC was weak so sleeping was a challenge. There was no TV but it s a Lodge so I guess that' should be expected. I wish there were night stands next to the bed. Beware of the ants and resident bathroom baby frog. Otherwise a quant place to relax after American airlines cancelled my flight and left me stranded to fend for myself.

Verified reviewThe room was very comfortable and clean and spacious. Beautifully decorated with a minimalist approach. The bed was comfortable as well. I loved the pool and the food was wonderful at the pool. The breakfast was good too.
There was no refrigerator or ice buckets available to keep my drink drinks cold. The resort is very spread out so there’s a lot of walking. The pool and spa open at nine, which I think is kind of late. It was very difficult and expensive for me to find my own transportation to the airport. The front desk is not helpful in that at all. The front desk does not open until 630 am and I needed transportation at six to get to the airport for an international flight. I ended up paying way more money than I should have!!!

Verified reviewWe liked when they offered to cook breakfast individually because certain foods were not hot enough like eggs. The location is very nice lookout over the river. We enjoyed the staff communication, and services at the restaurant and whitewater rafting. Our cabin was clean and staff kept it clean. We liked location close to airport and a National Park 18k away to hike.
I think there was enough rooms available to space people out amount the cabins as the walls were thin in our threesome lodge area. Place was clean. Certain facilities are needing painting in hot tubs, and aged look. Could use brighter lighting in cabins!

Verified reviewThe property is surrounded by alot of greenery and provides a peaceful experience. There is alot to do right on the property. The swimming pool was nice and eas our favorite part of the resort.
For a room at that cost $125 usd, I would expect it to be nicer. The room was very dark and outdated. Since everything was old, you couldn't tell if the room wasn't properly clean or just old. They have orange polyester sheets on the bed, and because they are dark and wrinkled, you can't tell if they are clean. (Never stayed at a hotel with orange linens). The AC was so loud we couldn't sleep, so we had to turn it off and had to just be hot. Lastly, the breakfast wasn't too great. The rice was hard and not edible. Oh, and the grounds have the potential to be absolutely beautiful, however the landscaping was not maintained.
