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.).

A beautiful Victorian property with large, well lit comfortable rooms. The property has been decorated beautifully, it feels clean, homely and comfortable yet luxurious. The hosts are lovely and couldn’t do more to ensure that all of your needs are met and the breakfast is amazing! x

United KingdomWe thought the idea of pre-booking breakfast for a time slot was excellent, however, other guests must have known to arrive in advance of the time slot as you a served on a first come first served basis. We will know next time.
Spotlessly clean, well equipped with a real feeling of luxury from bedding, to toiletries to hot drinks etc. Easy parking using a permit from the owners. The owners have really thought of everything to make your stay enjoyable. Thankyou.

Friendliness of the hosts Emma & Chris but at the same time being very professional. Great service for breakfast. Room facilities and styling really nice. Love the location around the Esplanade.

United KingdomShower cubical was a little tight in our room but this is be no means a fault or criticism of the room. The room couldn't occupy a larger one. I think it's just with knowing.
The room was clean, comfortable and well presented. Breakfast was exceptionally good with plenty of choice. We would definitely stay again when next in Scarborough.

United KingdomWe were on the top floor and found our water in the shower ran hot and cold. Only a half hour window for breakfast. You fill in your breakfast choice the night before (no problem with that). There are 3 times : 830, 845 or 9.00. We selected 845 but had to wait between 20-30 mins for our hot food. Also each day there was a little mistake despite us choosing via the form provided the day before. I think it would be better to have a longer slot for breakfast. I got the impression it was quite a stressful time for the owners as the B&B was full when we stayed.
Very comfy bed with quality egyptian cotton bedding. Large room. Sofa. Good breakfast On-road parking outside - we were provided with a permit Nice lounge area to sit in if you wanted to - including a juke box

United KingdomScarborough is quite a hilly area so if you find it difficult climbing steps and hills maybe this place is not for you.
Our room was lovely with a very comfy bed and great shower. Loved the fact there were tea making facilities in the room with a variety of drinks choices and some lovely biscuits. Our hosts Emma and Chris were lovely and very helpful if we needed any info. The breakfast was very good. Would definitely recommend this B & B
