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 KingdomWould have preferred a cooked breakfast, didn’t realise this wasn’t an option when booking. Found our room a little small, perhaps so much storage not required for short breaks would give more space, also a little cold in the evening but I’m sure Mick would have put the heating up we just didn’t like to ask. The Steep walk down to the town a little much for us.
Nice clean and well looked after property, thoughtful & very accommodating host.

Amazing! Loved the room and the decor. Enjoyed the breakfast basket. Lots of different items and very filling. Not far to walk down to the harbour and spaces to park out the front of house. In our opinion the best b&b in Whitby.

United KingdomWas a present for my mum and partner and they had a fantastic stay, pretty much faultless. Everything was brill, other than banging there head on the ceiling a few times and their knees on the bed end, which is their own daft fault, it was great!
Breakfast was really lovely, thoughtfully presented and lovely homemade produce with plenty of variety. Lovely clean room, very good facilities, warm and comfy, staff were brilliant, very welcoming and accomodating and most of all friendly, thank you.

The room was excellent and had everything we needed, including a fridge. The owners were very welcoming and had recommendations for places to go. The location was perfect, a 5 minute walk at most. Having a parking space was really useful. The breakfast was lovely, presented in a wicca basket and left outside the room door. There was a table and chairs in the room to eat your breakfast at. We just loved it and will definitely return.

Great location. Only a few minutes walk into Whitby town. We stayed in room 3. A well presented , lovely room with En-suite. Plenty of room , very clean. Own ironing board and iron. Had a fridge that had fresh milk to make teas and coffees. Table and 2 chairs where we ate our breakfast, delivered to the room after selecting our options the previous evening. There is plenty of choice on the breakfast menu. The host ( Mick) was perfect ! He also shared his local knowledge and recommended pubs , restaurants, walks etc. which helped us make the most of our weekend. Will definitely be returning ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
