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 KingdomShower pressure a bit low.
Friendliness of the owners, Pete & Rhona, homely feeling and made us feel very welcome. Pete carried the holdall as hubby has a slipped disk and thats why we wanted a mini break with a bedroom on the ground floor. Monico is close walking distance to the sea, shops, restaurants and bus stop outside. Yummy breakfast and we were asked what we like serving up each day with plenty of choice including juices, cereals, full english, toast, jams, tea/coffee yhevroom was warm and cozy with TV and en-suite shower room Will definitely return in the near future and love North Bay. Thank you both and wish you all the best for 2024.

United KingdomNothing at all.
Friendly welcome and enjoyable continued interactions. Great breakfast. Slept like a baby for 3 nights. Great location with the park, bars and restaurants nearby. Bus stop 100 yards away for the Whitby bus. Peter and Rhona have work to do to address some issues they inherited when they took over 8 weeks ago but they are tackling them head on.

United KingdomHosts are only 4 weeks in to business so will and plan to look into the B&B side. Room needs a refresh on decor but that didn’t impact the cleanliness. Ready supply of tea making top-up items. Bath towels a little old, maybe supply Bath Sheets .
Host (Peter)was there to welcome me and say make it your home, come and go as you like which settled me in lovely. Breakfast started off with hand prepared fruit salad and full English, set me up for the day. Own shower and toilet. Free wi-fi and modest on-street parking fee for B&B. Location, 10 minutes either way to beach and town. Host happy take on comments, from annother, around the breakfast presentation.
