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.).

CanadaThe water taps needs a new filter in the bathroom and the kitchen sinks because the water doesn’t come out properly. The cold water tap in the shower doesn’t work but the hot water is only warm so I guess that worked .
Location was great and staff were super friendly and accommodating.

CanadaThe only negative thing I personally had was the dirty bathtub as my family likes to bathe for the most part but that was nothing, we just chose to take quick showers instead.
This place is amazing, cannot rave enough about how the staff and management treat you so amazingly. It feels as it is in the heart of the the fun. We blew up our paddle boards and walked right into the lake across the street. Awesome beach area right in front of the hotel, also right beside the big moo, 2 min walk from Dairy Queen, Pizza Hut, liquor and convenience stores as well as countless restaurants and bars that are mostly kid and pet friendly. It is an older motel but that was actually why we chose it. I love the cabin style interior( even the rustic smell! You feel you are walking into the past) THE STAFF AND MANAGEMENT ARE THE BEST! So so sweet willing to help and bring anything, awesome to chat with. Typically when we find a vacation spot we like we chose different hotels to stay each time. But as long as this place is available this will be our go to. Ps… check out the sail boat at the rental docks. We had so much fun

CanadaOld carpets, old furniture, old TV, old towels. No hooks in the bathroom, no extra chairs. Dishes were dirty, needed to rewash them. There were only 3 bigger towels, no hand towels or face towels for 4 people. Only 3 cups, 2 glasses, no kitchen towels. Had to ask for extra and it was provided. Cigarette smell in the room although they asked us not to smoke inside. Stayed in much better motels for much less.
Location was very good. Just in front of the lake.

CanadaThe hotel is right on Lakeshore Drive which is great location beside the lake, but the corner unit where I was the street noise was an issue including muscle cars'engine revving until midnight on a rainy evening. Plus, the corner unit has the stairs down and noisy children ran up and down the stairs up to 10 pm, and then in the unit above me until 11pm, but that's the parent's fault not the owners.
Location is great; owners were wonderful, very good communication skills with tired Travellers; pets are accepted.

CanadaIt's an old building, so we could hear people coming and going above us. Nothing terrible though.
Great value for money. It's retro and relaxing and right on the lake! The owners are amazing, and very present. They are there to check you in and walk you through all the elements of the motel. It was perfect for our one night stay to take in the Open Water race. The location can't be beat. It's a classic old motel, but very, very, very clean.

CanadaIt's a party town, so of course there are drunks walking the streets at 2 a.m., but nothing the Motel could do about it. That's the price you pay for a good price and awesome location.
Right across from the Main Beach, nice Lake View, easy to find, restaurants and pubs withing walking distance, More Moo Ice-cream only 2 doors down, good Donair place right beside it, amazing owners.

Tierney is the manager and was extremely gracious and welcoming. We'd stay there again just because of him. Room was clean and comfortable. Beautiful spot, right on the water. Amazing sunsets and easy walk to restaurants and beach.
