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.).

CanadaThe view from the cottage during daytime and that too in the morning is beyond words. The host is really good and he is very friendly and very supportive. Its really hard to find a superb host and the facility that matches your expectation. The facilities in the cottage is really impressive and the view in the background is something you have to see it to experience it. Words don't do justice to the view.

CanadaI booked well in advance, for 5 adults. So we got a suite room. But when we got there, there was only room for 4 adults and then the 5th person had to sleep on a "cot" which was not set up in the room when we arrived. And then sadly they dropped of an air mattress that we had to blow it up ourselves! The main office also needed some cleaning up, as it had a alot of junk sitting around in it. I just didn't feel these things were very professional. I am normally not one to complain, but these things were a bit disappointing in my experience.
I've stayed here many times in the past. The setting is stunning as usual. It was clean in our room. New owners were very nice.

CanadaCouldn't get the TV going and get any channels. But that was maybe a bonus, so we could enjoy nature, reading and quietness.
The location was amazing, the view from the bedroom so calming and beautiful. No fuss with checking in or checking out. A simple place in a location where there is lots to see and do. The restaurant next door was great! Would recommend.

United KingdomFound it difficult to communication with management before we arrived. Units are not actually in Baddeck, but are about 20 mins away in the car. Need to pick up provisions before you arrive.
Self contained unit with lovely outlook over the lake. Good position for start of Cabot Trail.

Although the motel is an old building, it was very comfortable inside, with a TV, microwave and fridge. Bed linen and towels were of excellent quality and a new bath/shower unit provided plenty of hot water. Vince was very friendly and helpful.

CanadaThe bed was OK but could be more comfortable . After staying in several places on this trip I find carpet , no matter how clean, carries allergens. I like that many are now going with vinyl plank flooring .
Beautiful setting on a lake . Next door is a full restaurant so after travelling that was handy .

United StatesThere is a lot of traffic on the highway above the property. Large trucks braking were pretty annoying overnight and intruded on the solitude watching the water and birds in the morning As with any waterside properties, the linens felt damp. Heat pump units to remove the moisture from the air would help. Not a deal-breaker, but the dampness made the bedding feel limp and even our clothing by the third day had a "damp" feel to it.
We stayed in the cottage on the water. It's a rural location right at the base of the Cabot trail, so very close to everything. The cottage has a separate bedroom, living/kitchen area and bath. You could easily cook here if you didn't want to eat out. Very quiet stay and wonderful view out the sliding glass window. Easy to get to everything we wanted to do over the weekend. Nice little area to sit outside and watch the water. The owner was very helpful and amicable; we sort of felt like we were staying at a relative's house in some ways.
