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 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):
- 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.).

The walls are a bit thin so can sometimes hear noise from neighboring rooms but not unexpected in a heritage building. Which, by the way, has been superbly and lovingly refurbished. In no way did it diminish our enjoyment of our stay.
The breakfast was excellent. The owners were lovely and very helpful. The setting is fabulous. The homemade cookies a wonderful touch especially when arriving late in the evening!

Nothing.
The Latch Inn is beautifully restored, tucked into an Ocean cove, with the back patio overlooking the Marina. Breakfast was delicious & plentiful. Our room was lovely. David is a fabulous host and makes you feel welcome from the moment you meet. We will return with others, to experience this wonderful Inn.

Everything was great, This is a very old building that the owners took so much pride in. The renovations kept the history of the home but still upgraded things appropriately. Only complaint we had was that it was quite warm at night so not having air conditioning wasn’t great.
Loved the breakfast, everything we tried we loved. Fresh orange juice, home made berry biscuits, and I couldn’t get enough of the eggs Benedict. The owners were lovely and so accommodating, even chatting with us to give us sight seeing suggestions. The outdoor patio was a great place to drink our morning coffee, we even had our breakfast out there one day when it was warm out.

The property is a few blocks from the Sidney shopping area, but that's barely a dislike, because I liked the quiet.
Elegantly furnished, holding true to the history of the building. I loved that it was in a quiet area, no traffic, just the harbor sounds. The breakfast was amazing, room amenities were lovely and it was very clean. The beds have fuzzy fleece blankets which I prefer to duvets. We were thrilled with our stay, and will recommend to our Yukon friends as a nice Vancouver Island hideaway.

There was nothing we didn’t like…Even had a small fridge in the room & robes for guests.
We knew ‘The Latch’ several years ago for it’s amazing dinners. We just had the opportunity to stay there again as it is now a B&B. The current owners (they bought in 2020) have transformed this place into a jewel, keeping all the original charm. Breakfast is included and was an amazing 5* experience! Lovely location overlooking a marina. We’ll be back! 😊👍
