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 KingdomFor me personally, would have liked at least one soft pillow, they were too firm for my head and neck.
Location was easy to find, very close to the beach and shops and restaurants. We enjoyed our daily breakfast. The room and whole of the Lodge was very clean. It was great to have parking space.

United KingdomThere was nothing we didnt like but some people might struggle with the location, it's a beautiful walk downhill to the seafront then a choice of 2 hills back up to the lodge- one quite steep and one not too bad.
Our room at the Lindum Lodge was very clean and comfortable, with plenty of storage so we were able to unpack completely. Russell and his family were very friendly and the breakfasts were good!

A great welcome on arrival from Russell the owner. He showed us around the Lodge and gave us information on the best routes into the town. He was a wealth of information and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was excellent and service with a smile. Would definitely stay here again.

United KingdomWe genuinely can’t think of one.
We enjoyed the atmosphere of the property. Russell was very welcoming, polite, respectful and friendly and even gave us a tour of the property which was lovely. The location of the property was perfect, about a 6-7 minute walk to the sea front and restaurants. Our room was very clean, very comfortable and had a great view also.

United KingdomThere was a slight musty smell in the reception area but all the carpets and decor were new, so I am not quite sure why there was a funny smell. There was nothing really to complain about to be honest.
Super clean, immaculate decoration which was modern and tasteful, breakfast lovely, my husband had a full English with sausage, bacon, beans, mushrooms, hash brown, egg and tomato. Beautiful linen tablecloths and napkins. Tea tasted a bit funny but I think it is the water in the area. I had coffee the next day which was fine. Russel the host was very pleasant and funny and made it clear if we needed anything we could ask. It was a bit hot in our room and Rusel said they had fans but we just didn't think to ask. Location great, about 7 minutes down the hill to the beach and harbour, 5 minutes through the car park or down Abbey Road to the town. Parking available, just a bit tight but better than no parking or having to pay for parking.

United StatesWe liked it all.
The Lodge is well appointed and a convenient location for walking down to the beach and the village within a few minutes. Bus stops close by make it easy to visit other seaside villages too. Russell and his wife are lovely hosts and provide all that is needed... full English breakfast, other options as well with the best coffee we have had on our 2 month tour..outside area with tables and umbrellas and a bar with lots of alcohol options. Our room was well lit with natural lighting, a comfortable bed and chairs. Other reviewers have mentioned issues with parking... we experienced no problems at all!
