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.).

FinlandThe breakfast maybe was a bit minor. Although there were options to choose, but they provided it in a limited number since it was us who the only real hotel guest there. Nonetheless, in general we are satisfied with everything provided.
At first, I thought it would be a just and normal hotel with fair price. But it turned out that the hotel exceeded my expectation. Although the room was small, but it had a modern-look, and was clean as well. The sea-view was also nice from the balcony.

GermanyMy 2nd stay at the hotel. Personnel is very friendly. My room was small but fully sufficient for me. Breakfast was excellent, with a view of the sea. Modern hotel on the beach, but the real highlight is a nature path that starts not far away and leads to some sections of incredibly beautiful shoreline with large boulders, smooth rock faces and great forest paths.

FinlandThe facilities were a bit outdated, as well as the building itself. We didn’t try the food, but it was rather expensive, and not many options for a vegeterian, especially vegan. We didn’t have bathroom in our room, the toilet was outside the room but it was very small. It was far from the city, so you would need a car.
The bed was great. We were delighted that there was instant coffee and tea in the room. The location was at the beach. We enjoyed minigolf nearby, where was a restaurant-bar as well. All in all the stay was pleasant.

United KingdomHandrail on the staircase needs to be fitted please. My father has limited mobility, and the handrail would have made a major difference to him and maybe others in the future. The other criticism would be that on both nights we stayed there, the restaurant shut at 5pm, which was not mentioned at time of booking. Fine, the local supermarket provided what was needed for an picnic supper on the balcony (The K Market is about 10 minutes away by car). However, felt lost business opportunity here as the hotel seemed full on the second night. Also, it would not have harmed to send a message saying the restaurant was shutting early (Did give a later time on the room key envelope), and maybe offer clients a cold food platter with a drinks choice. The food platter would be an extension of the breakfast offering. Thinking added value here.
If you want somewhere (When we stayed there) that is quiet and peaceful, pleasant location, and out of town, then this place is for you, Breakfast was very good as well.

FinlandI didn't like that at the time of arrival, there was no clerk working in reception, which made it difficult to get assistance when needed. Additionally, there was no electric or smoked sauna available, nor was there a preheated sauna. Furthermore, the grill room was not open during my stay, which was disappointing.
Certainly! - **Breakfast:** I enjoyed the variety and quality of the breakfast options available. The buffet had a wide selection of fresh fruits, pastries, and hot dishes, which made for a satisfying start to the day. - **Room:** The room was spacious, clean, and well-appointed. I appreciated the comfortable bed and modern amenities provided, which made my stay very comfortable. - **View:** The view from the room was stunning. Whether it overlooked the city skyline, lush gardens, or serene water bodies, it added a beautiful touch to the overall experience.

EstoniaThe payment process is a little bit complicated if you arrive late and have to leave early in the morning, before the reception is opened. It would be easier, if it could be done online.
Place was in a great location and getting in to the building and in to the room was with a code.

GermanyJust the price ... sure, the location right on the shore and it was in the middle of the summer, but still a bit pricey for what it is, in my opinion. But what do I know about costs these days!
A decent hotel in a great location - right on the seashore, looking over the bay, next to a larger campground and sandy beach area with various facilities. Staff were friendly and breakfast great. My room was small but ok, it even had a small balcony, but overall nothing particularly special. There is a stunningly beautiful nature trail close by that takes you through the forested tip of the peninsula and along the mighty rocks of the sea shore. So: location a plus, nature trail a double plus, hotel itself decent and ok but nothing too special.

FinlandWe felt that the (at times quite loud) music playing on the terrace all day was unnecessary, and since our room was facing the same direction, we couldn't really "escape" it either. We would have preferred a more quiet environment and for example enjoy breakfast without the extra noise. The beach and terrace offer little opportunity for shade when the sun burns down, and the privacy on the sea view room's balcony isn't great, as people can look right up right at you from the terrace.
Good value for a shorter trip. Very nice location, friendly staff and a beautiful sandy beach. Beautiful view from the terrace/restaurant! Overall not too busy, which we enjoyed. We arrived by bus and taxi and thanks to the restaurant didn't need to make any other arrangements and could focus just on relaxing. The close-by Santalahti nature path is amazing and highly recommended!
