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 reviewStaying at the Sunshine and Wine Loft exceeded our expectations! The location is incredibly convenient, a 5-minute drive from Main Street restaurants, Okanagan and Skaha Lakes, Safeway, London Drugs, and liquor stores. The loft is spacious and equipped with everything you need: a wonderful bed, great shower, Jacuzzi, coffeemaker, minibar, air conditioning, extra towels, blankets, and city maps. The breakfast was fantastic, with a huge fruit bowl, bananas, bagels, jelly, peanut butter, butter, fresh coffee, and creamer. And the best part of the experience was, without a doubt, the great conversation with Gary and Sharon. They are amazing people who will do everything they can to make you feel welcome and comfortable, as well as share their knowledge of the area. We truly appreciate all their tips and suggestions and hope to see them, and lovely Ricky, soon. I highly recommend their loft to anyone looking for a cozy and welcoming place!
Nothing, everything is perfect.
Geez Natalia....your review is too much! I forgot we had all those things....It was a delight to have met you and Paulo. You were wonderful guests. Gary and Sharon, Sunshine and Wine Loft.

Verified reviewWe absolutely loved our stay! Gary, Sharon and Ricky are wonderful hosts who immediately made us feel welcome. Our dog, Maple, had the best time and felt right at home too. The house itself is beautiful; spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated, and incredibly comfortable. Our room was cozy and peaceful, perfect for a relaxing getaway. Breakfast was delicious and clearly made with care. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and can’t wait to visit again!
Maple will miss it so much!
Hi Fabiana...we were so glad to have you with us. The three of you were the perfect guests. Gary, Sharon and of course, Rikki....

Verified reviewLocation,the room
Lack of privacy due to shared entrance. Bed was way to soft and uncomfortable to sleep
I am sorry that you found the Loft not to your liking. Had you read the property description you might have seen that it is a common entrance. Had you looked at the pictures, you would have seen that our home has a common entrance. You and your companion had a discussion in front of me, as to whether or not you wished to stay...you chose to. You opted to not have breakfast as was offered. Again..I am sorry our home was not to your liking.

Verified reviewA Wonderful Stay in Penticton The location works perfectly, situated midway between Skaha and Okanagan Lakes, just minutes from each by car. It's also conveniently close to Penticton's town centre. The unit itself is clean, well-designed, and thoughtfully arranged to offer privacy and comfort. But what truly made our stay exceptional were our hosts, Gary and Sharon. Their care and attention were beyond anything we expected. We experienced a few personal unexpected hiccups during our trip, including a car breakdown and other unfortunate events, and Gary went well above and beyond to help us. His kindness and generosity ensured our holiday stayed on track despite the challenges. If we could give more than five stars, Gary would absolutely deserve them all. Highly recommend booking Sunshine and Wine Loft!!!
Geeez Miriam...muchas gracias for such a review. Our home welcomes you and Peter and Pepe...your lovely and oh so very brave little dog. We very much enjoyed our time with the three of you. Gary and Sharon

Verified reviewWe had a lovely time at Sunshine and Wine Loft when we stopped for a three day break in June. Gary and Sharon were lovely and very flexible to meet our needs. We chatted every morning over an excellent breakfast (tons of fruit and bagels - yum) and most evenings. They were so friendly and a great source of knowledge about Penticton and the area. The location of the house is excellent for wine touring, with easy access to South Okanagan, the Similkameen, and the Naramata Bench.

Verified reviewWe really enjoyed our stay while in the Okanagan to visit family. Our suite was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Gary and Sharon were very hospitable and interesting to chat with. I would recommend their accommodation for others visiting the area.
The breakfast was good. We enjoyed the fresh fruit, yoghurt and bagels. Perhaps, a bit more variety in what was provided would have been welcome. However, I know this requires a lot more prep and would likely increase the cost per night for staying here.
Thank you for your review. I shall try and introduce more choices in the breakfast. Gary..Host

Verified reviewExceptional! Warm and friendly owners who made me (and my dog) feel very welcome. The room is very spacious and comfortable with a lovely en-suite. They have thought of every tiny detail to make this a comfortable stay. Extra blankets, beach towels, bottles of water, interesting tea selection, good coffee, bath salts and other toiletries...the list goes on. Breakfast was fabulous and Gary was happy to make it for exactly when I needed it even though that was different each day. Quiet neighbourhood and close to lots of amenities.
Hi Liz....thanks so very much for your kind review. Congratulations too, to MS Bonnie for her wonderful showing at the Summerland Dog Show. Well done to both of you! You were both wonderful guests! Gary and Sharon

Verified reviewThe hosting couple is super nice and kind and helpful. The room is spacious as well as the bathroom (a tiny heads up there: the bathroom ceiling is Open to the bedroom) Everything was very clean and the breakfast was awesome.
Nothing really
Yes...the separation between bathroom and bedroom is odd, isn't it. I have no idea why they built it that way. I see you noted the bed...? If you could tell me what the issue is? Gary and Sharon, Hosts, Sunshine and Wine Loft.

Verified reviewSharon and Gary are amazing hosts, friendly and kind. Their house is pet-friendly (thank you, guys, for that) and the off-leash dog park is just a few minutes away. There is no problem with parking, finding the place or the accessibility in general. The room has everything you need, it's clean and bright. We loved our mornings talking to Gary and having great breakfast and fresh coffee. Would book another weekend here in a heartbeat, so 110% recommendation from us.
I wish we could stay longer. :)
We wish you could have stayed longer, too!! Thanks so very much for your generous review. It truly was a pleasure having the three of you with us. Gary and Sharon

We enjoyed visiting with them and exchanging stories. Their backyard patio area is a neat place to sit back and relax. The room was very bright and very comfortable. Have to mention, it's a quiet neighbourhood, which is great for sleeping.
