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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

This is a fabulous property by the side of the lake - the hosts were friendly and welcoming both before and during our stay. The food is absolutely outstanding and would recommend both breakfast and dinner in the restaurant.

CanadaThe waterfront/dock area is lovely but unfortunately not enough cots and the two we had to use were quite old and uncomfortable I feel there should be enough cots for all guests More heaters and Citronella candles for the outside dining area

CanadaNot the fault of the property at all. I really want to be clear about this first off. The one thing my wife and I didn’t like I’d that the WHOLE town shuts down at 9pm. I mean everything shuts down.
Property was very nice and comfortable. Beds are amazingly comfy. Food was amazing.

CanadaFor me personally, I would love if it wasn’t right next to the highway. I’m sure during parts of the year you won’t hear the cars, but I personally just like silence and to hear the trees and birds. I could hear cars the whole time. But honestly it’s not a big deal. Everything else is perfect. When you go paddle boarding or canoeing, you can travel down the lake and you won’t hear the cars at all.
Everything is wonderful. All the attention to details. The lavenders on the bath robes, the extra towels, the cleanliness and attention to Covid details, the beautiful balcony that looks over the lake. It’s so easy to access the paddle boards. It was lovely!

NetherlandsUnbelievable that the restaurant was fully booked for dinner for our whole stay of 4 nights. You were able to book in advance but that was not possible for me. A waiting list every evening. Breakfast inside was also fully booked. You could sit at the terrace if the weather was ok.... You could have room service for dinner and breakfast but just after the Covid reopenings you don't want that. The lodges with garden view should be changed to parking view. If there were guests in the apartment above you, you can hear them walk because of the wooden floor. Not a good night rest. The (free) Wifi was poor.
The view and facilities to sit at the lake were very good.
