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 and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

United KingdomSlightly too far out from town centre, but not a problem for us as we're keen walkers.
Cosy, friendly, typical country Inn. What's not to like? Good selection of ales.

United KingdomWe disliked the overpowering Plug in room deodoriser. Also, the guest who was in the room above ours was very heavy footed until late in the evening and was extremely noisy at 6 am.
The room was clean and comfortable.

United KingdomWe should have paid more attention to the location - not quite as close to the station as we'd anticipated after a 16 mile walk during the day! Bu well worth the climb up the hill to get there!
Really friendly and helpful staff, great meal and very clean and comfortable bedroom.

United KingdomWe loved it all, great value for money.
Very helpful staff. Food fantastic. Room huge (Kentmere - family room with 2 single beds and i king size) comfy king size bed. Although probably needs redecorated. We loved it, it was cosy. I imagine the station inn being very cosy in the winter. Only 5-10 minutes walk from Oxenholme train station. Kendal only 3 minuts by train. We had no children, but there is a fantastic outdoor play area and seating. Plenty of parking too.

United KingdomThe room is on the ground floor and beside the road. There were lots of cars and buses running through the road at night. It was too noisy for us to getting into sleep. It was like the cars were running on my face. And I could hear the people walking on the first floor.
There is a bar and restaurant in the inn. The food is very good.

United KingdomWe couldn't access the double socket to plug our phones in by the bed, so I had to unplug the bedside light. Also could hear all the talking from the neighboring room, but that was mentioned to us in the booking.
Big room that was clean and comfortable and an excellent breakfast. Great location for a walk up The Helm opposite too. Easy parking.

United KingdomThe breakfast was ok , just didn't like that the toast was under the English breakfast , this left the toast soggy. On advertising it says station inn B & B which lead us to think bed and BREAKFAST was included , and ended up having to pay an additional £8.99 each which is a bit on the expensive side .
The room was comfortable, although lots of cobwebs in the bathroom ,the staff were friendly and helpful.
