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's nothing else there, so if you didn't bring breakfast or coffee, it's a drive away. Come prepared. No breakfast options available and no tea or coffee available in the morning in the main lodge. The bathroom door did not close completely. There was also no large pot -- we had planned to cook pasta for dinner as a quick way to feed teens. It rained for the entire time we were there (about 20 hours) and there wasn't really anywhere to hang coats, put wet boots and just a small mat for wet shoes, so our room got a little soggy. I don't mind the rain, but usually in this area places are better set up for it with hangers and mats.
The location is truly spectacular. Beautiful views, lovely walk on the rocks of the beach. Classic gulf island vistas. The restaurant was great for dinner and super accommodating to our big group. Cute cabin. Comfortable beds. Very quiet. The sound of the rain on the metal roof was lovely. Even with a pub and restaurant next door, we hardly heard any traffic. Big enough for a family of 5 to sleep comfortably with a small kitchenette for self-catering. It is across the street from the water, but the road is very quiet. Beautiful sandstone formations, arbutus trees, blackberry bushes to pick in the rain. Cozy living room area in the lodge when the restaurant is closed. My eldest child played creepy songs in a minor key on the out of tune piano, and it was beautifully atmospheric. Great for our family for a short stay to connect with other family members camping near by.

CanadaNo Extra toilet paper or extra towels in the cabin - there were six of us. There is no toaster in the kitchen or drying rack for the dishes. There should be wasp traps we couldn't sit outside with food or wine. The driveway has way too many pot holes - it might be an idea to have extra gravel to fill those holes especially after heavy rains.
Liked the self contained cabin - but there was no orientation when we checked in - we were just given the keys and told where the parking was. Beds were comfortable and wifi was good.

CanadaAs the only remaining pub on the island, the place was busy especially at meal times. The experience was spoiled though as due to no shows in the staff, the people that had turned up were run off their feet. When we arrived we waited 25 mins before anyone came to our table.
Great location with beautiful walks. Accomadation clean & tidy. Very quiet surroundings with great views of the shipping lanes.

CanadaA great location, and wonderful to stay at a family run pub with character and history, so much nicer than a generic impersonal hotel chain. The place is dated but that is half the charm. We lucked out in that we happened to be there for an open mike music jam session which attracted some local island talent - a wonderful way to spend a summer's evening.

CanadaWhen we come back again, I think I would take a room or cabin with a patio rather than focusing on the king size bed. The bathroom in room 9 is quite small. The room is very dark at night so I would bring a night light next time.
We liked the dining room and the pub and appreciate having them right where we are staying. I enjoy having a great meal and drinks and not having to worry about driving. The sea view from both the pub and the dining room is fantastic. The jalapeno poppers were great. Really loved the building construction from logs and stone. Our king sized bed in room 9 was very comfortable. The room itself was strange with the different levels on the window side of the room. I've never seen anything like that before but it did work well for storage of our luggage etc. Very nice to have the fridge and coffee maker in our room.
