Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

CanadaOnly minor inconvenience is the stairs if you have many trips to unload the car. If you have mobility issues, ask for ground floor.
Great location. About a 12 minute walk to the main street. Grocery store just down the street. Good view of the lake.

United States of AmericaEverything was great except when we first got to the room, it was clean but there were towels left in the bathroom from previous guests which were obviously used. I did call about it to report it and they apologized and stated they could drop off more towels or we could get sone from the lobby, which we did. So, apart from that, no complaints. I do think an inside doormat should be added to all the rooms especially when snowing, just so we are not bringing in too much from outside. We put down a (used) towel though so no biggie. (We were not there for rentals and I think you have to light the fire pit yourself)
It's a really nice cute little place with amazing views, if you pick the room that states it has views, otherwise you will either see the parking lot or other buildings. We had lake and garden views and they were awesome! Beds are very comfortable, good amenities - we chose the kitchenette, so that helped too. It was a keyless entry but we had no problems with that and no staff on site, but again that didn't bother us and anything we needed was available in the lobby. Overall, a great stay!

United States of AmericaWe were told we would have a kitchenette in our room, but it was just a refrigerator, coffee maker, and a sink. Not even a microwave at least. Also the heat is always constantly on even when it says it’s off. We had windows open all night and it still was very warm in the room.
The location to the lake and down town.

United States of AmericaWith the little kitchen area and the king size bed, the room seemed crowded. Also, the lighting in the room could have been better. We never saw a person, and it’s fortunate we didn’t need any help.
We’ve stayed here several times over the years, but not since the new ownership and renovation. We love the location, on Lake Placid but a short walk to Main Street. There are still canoes and kayaks for use on the lake, and even more chairs as well as a fire pit (which was never lit while we were there, unfortunately). The room was clean and the linens and towels were very nice. Bathroom was well stocked with nice products.

United States of AmericaThe room was not as the pictures on booking.com suggested. It was a lot smaller. Barely room to move around in let alone comfortably fit our luggage. Would much better suit one person rather than two.
The location and provided amenities were great. We used the kayaks, canoes and paddle boards. The views were amazing and loved reading on the dock. Location to town was perfect with just close yet also far enough to get a good walk in.
