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):
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.).

CanadaThere wasn’t much to complain about, besides that the rooms are not very sound-proof (probably because it was originally a house.) so you can hear the conversations and footsteps from neighbors next door.
The entire place was very clean and organized. I loved my stay there! I would definitely comeback and stay there again. Everything was nearby and the walk outside the lake was also very nice. Loved that the room had AC!

United StatesLocation is about 8-10min away from downtown,quiet neighborhood,have an own parking inside the vicinity. We had a big room with a big balcony overlooking the lake.I like the no shoes inside the unit cause it means that they pay attention to cleanliness, room floor is tiled (meaning u dont have to deal with carpet smell) every corner is neat and sparkling clean. i booked the room on the same day we checked in with a very affordable price.host is so kind to provide the room earlier than the check in time after we requested.

CanadaI should stay longer lol.
Everything is perfect! Great location, nice room, fabulous view. I had a superb stay at Lipton Place by Elegant Waterfront! The host was incredibly welcoming and made me feel right at home. The unit was spotless and well-maintained. The location is unbeatable, truly waterfront, I especially enjoyed the peaceful walks along the shoreline, which are just steps away. The area is full of charm, with beautiful historic architecture, all around and a quiet, relaxing atmosphere that made it hard to leave. Perfect base to me in Victoria. I would absolutely come back and recommend it!

United StatesThe laundry times were very limited, we had counted on being able to do laundry and thought 8 PM was a little early to have it off limits. We also would have appreciated a bigger garbage can. I don't recall the no shoes rule on the website, I only had sneakers with shoelaces which was a pain to put on and off and the provided slippers were way too big, I could not walk in them.
Location, view, proximity to stores and to the water, room pretty and comfortable, unique

The property is set in a beautiful location overlooking a lake. We were able to eat breakfast on the balcony and stroll around the lake. It was very peaceful. The room had a fridge which was handy and there was a washing machine and dryer you could use. Washing tablets were provided.

New ZealandThe bed was a little too firm for my liking, but of course this is a personal preference.
Beautifully presented period home, four poster bed, tea and coffee station on the landing downstairs. Very private room with own bathroom and sunroom with its own balcony, facing the side and rear of the property. This home is right across the road from the water. We were able to take an evening stroll along the waterfront to a small park and learn a little about a couple of historic homes in the area.
