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.).

United KingdomA warm welcome. The host was very friendly & helpful beyond the call of duty. Excellent communication, replying promptly to messages. The house is charming, comfortable & in good taste. The continental breakfast options were comprehensive & of good quality. The location is fantastic, in the centre of the village with but quiet in the room. The pubs & village shop are a couple of minutes walk. Lovely to stay somewhere where the host really cares. Recommended.

United KingdomJust a note - the train stops just by the window, so earplugs would be good to have. As a wife of snoring husband I didn’t care much.
Comfortable bed, cozy little room with a homely feel, what’s not to like. We specifically loved the help yourself breakfast - this allowed us to get up very early, make ourselves some meal and leave early to explore. The owner is a very lovely lady too!

United KingdomThere was nothing that could be improved, had a perfect stay.
Lulu's was perfect, a converted railway station house right next to the railway which we used to travel up and down the coast and yet still quiet as the trains stop running about 9 pm. Our room was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and we slept like proverbial logs. Lulu laid on a continental breakfast with ham, cheeses, eggs, toast, yoghurt, porridge juice, coffee and fresh fruit. Lulu lives in the property so is always on hand to help with any queries and is so helpful and lovely.

United KingdomThe stairs are very steep, especially when wearing motorcycle gear. I would of like some more security or a better place to park the motorbikes, we ended up chaining them together in a car park space on the side of the property next to the main road.
Plenty of choice for breakfast. Very friendly and welcoming. Tea making facilities really good, plenty of tea and coffee and even a fridge with real milk not uht. There was also orange in the fridge and a bag of ice cubes in the freezer. I don’t think there was anything they hadn’t thought about. Everything was very clean and well thought out.

United KingdomAs the property located right next to the train station, it could be a little bit noisy to some people. I woke up many times first night but then fine. We been out all the time plus weather was good so it s Ok. If you are travelling with young children, best to pack some warm closes and an extra blanket if you can. I didn't ask, but may be Louise would have given extras too. There are little electric heaters in the rooms. As it s carpeted so I didnt use it for safety concerns at night. However, nothing else to worry about staying at Lulu's. You will be treated with respect and kindness at all times.
We stayed as family at Lulu's for 2 nights and had the best experience of Lake district trip this time. Our rooms are so clean and comfy. Louise has provided variety of cereals, bread, eggs, milk, juices, which is unexpected and we all enjoyed the hassle free breakfast just like home :) Additionally, she has given presents to my children. She is very friendly and amazing lady. There are children's play area as well at the front garden. It s really handy and safe to leave kids to play and you can have peaceful cuppa on your own :) The property is just next to the train station and only a few mins walking distance from the Beach-St. Bees Head. Whole view is amazing. You can then drive easily to Wasdale or other adjacent areas for extra activities.
