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.).

Verified reviewAn amazing little gem in a stunning location. A very warm and helpful welcome from Lisa which we truly appreciated after our journey. The views are truly stunning and combined with the hearty breakfast (different each morning) we were sorry to leave after our four night stay. A great spot for exploring the Okanagan and wineries! Highly recommend.

Verified reviewLoved the quaint luxurious room with the magnificent view. (an artist's dream) bed was very comfy and shower was perfect as well as the old fashioned tub! Breakfasts were scrumptious with the bonus of warmed croissants and the box was put together and delivered with care. Lisa was so gracious and approachable and professional as she clearly enjoys her business!
Hmm. Hard to say. Can't think of anything
Thank you Helen for the kind and generous review! I look forward to welcoming you! Perhaps next time for a weekend of sketching!

Verified reviewBeautiful setting on a hill overlooking the lake. Super close to 2 wineries and a short drive from many others and town. Lovely breakfast. Comfortable room with extra bedding and a large soaking tub and fancy shower. The balcony was an added perk, which would have been lovely had the weather cooperated.
So pleased that you enjoyed your stay! Hope to see you both again in 2024! Lisa

Verified reviewMid August 2023 visit. Stayed and extra day as well. Crown Jewel Suite. Great parking. This was a return trip to wine country. Having previously done packed wine tasting interactúes before, this time we wanted 3 days of relaxation, modest wine touring, and just “easy”. This place delivered. Lisa was attentive and anticipated our needs. The private balcony was a blessing with peek-a-boo views of the beach where Penticton meets Skaha Lake. Room was air conditioned. Host Lisa provided great breakfasts each day and we used the suite as part of our relaxing “activities”. Walking distance up the road to Pentage and throwing distance to Crescent Hill Winery. Added a couple of 30 minute drives to Naramata for excellent afternoon and evening meals. Thanks.
