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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

Property was spotlessly clean and in a great location. Central to Windermere village and a short walk from Bowness. Room had everything we needed, even down to small details like a heat proof mat for hair straighteners. Everything was thought of.

United KingdomI loved everything about this property.
The location- was just about 15 minutes walk to Bowness, and 3-5 minutes to the train station. Shops and restaurants all within 2 minutes walking. Our room was huge and so very clean, the bed and pillows very comfy. I literally slept like a baby all through. The room has everything you to enjoy your stay. The host was very friendly and professional.

Our room was was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated and equipped better than a 5 star accommodation and our host Carmel had thought of every detail to make our stay comfortable and welcoming...even a first aid kit and shoe shine pad...quite exceptional for a relatively small guest house.The room was also made up every day to the same high standard as if we had just arrived and nothing was too much trouble for our wonderful host. Although there is no breakfast option the location is just a short stroll from numerous cafés and restaurants in Windermere centre who cater for a variety of breakfast meals. We had a great stay at this little gem of a place...thank you.

GermanySmall but nice! Clean room and bathroom with everything you’ll need (towels, blow dryer, modern shower, shampoo…), comfortable bed, TV, little snacks and tea/instant coffee. A bit of private luxury in comparison to hostels that solo travelers often (have to) revert to. easy to get to from the train station and only a 3 minute walk to the Windermere town centre.

United KingdomI stayed in a single room and really enjoyed my stay. My room was quiet and extremely clean with a comfortable bed and a spotless en-suite shower room. Tea, coffee, juice, bottled water (and even a bit of sherry) were provided. The hosts were lovely and friendly. I liked the location; it's just along from the local cafes and shops in Windermere, and it was easy to walk down to Bowness and the lake from.

United KingdomThe only downside which isn’t a reflection of the guest house or the hosts. The guests staying below us were very noisy and inconsiderate with their noise level, banging their doors and loud music at 6am. Other than this our experience here was exceptional.
Cosy and some lovely little touches in our bedroom. Clean and comfortable.

United Kingdom'Didn't like' is far too strong, but the disadvantages were: ...a very small room ...noisy building/plumbing work during the day (but it stemmed from an emergency, so there was nothing the owners could do about the timing)
Great location - really near the shops, station, bus stop etc - but in a quiet residential area. Lovely welcoming staff. Comfortable bed. Nice bathroom. Totally agree that it is a great place for a solo traveller.

AustraliaThe electronic shower had a couple issues (turned off/on) by itself but it sorted itself out after having a few tries.
Loved everything - very welcoming staff, and they kept the room and facilities in great condition. Location is great, close to the train station and a short work to the main part of town (shops, restaurants, etc.). Room had all the trimmings, and was very comfortable and excellent for my stay. Brochures in the hallway (and on the table on my arrival) had some great info about the lakes for my trip - a nice touch. Overall, loved it
