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.).

United KingdomIf I had to be really (and I mean really!) picky the only thing I could fault is the size of the kitchen bin! Only the size of a wastepaper basket. This had absolutely no affect on our holiday, just an observation!
Beautiful cottage in a stunning location. Quaint and peaceful but within close distance to Whitby, Filey and Scarborough. The cottage was clean, comfortable and well equiped. A real home from home with friendly, helpful hosts on site. Compared to other rentals in the summer holidays it was really reasonably priced. I would definately recommend!

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike. It was perfect.
We loved the view from the patio and watching the birds in the garden. The whole cottage was bright and inviting. The pictures don't show the little details that make it so inviting. It was very comfortable especially the bed and we felt right at home. Can't wait to stay again. Lisa was lovely and very warm and friendly.

United KingdomThe cottage was very nice and comfortable. The extra little touches made a big difference and the animals out back was an added bonus. Good location to all main areas and a nice walk down to robin hoods bay from the cottage. The visitors books also were a big plus and pointed us in the direction of the falling foss. Which was a nice walk with the dogs and visit to the tea garden. Overall this was a great location, especially if you have a dog/s.

United KingdomWe visited in February when it was freezing outside. There is no heating upstairs so the property did get a little cold. There were throws, on each of the beds, a water bottle and a single heater but the property could do with a heater per bedroom and one downstairs when it gets very cold.
A great location and a lovely property that was very clean well equipped. Lots of great little touches like the cleaning area for dogs outside and dog biscuits.

United KingdomFabulous location; just 200 metres off the A171 yet seems remote and peaceful, with beautiful sea views and countryside walks from the doorstep. Really handy for trips out to Scarborough, Robin Hood's Bay & the North Yorkshire Moors! Our hosts are friendly and helpful. Warm (we stayed mid-February), cosy and comfortable. Highly recommended in every aspect. 😁👍
