Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

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. 😁👍

The cottage was quaint, clean, in a good location and had great views. Also great wildlife too. Lisa and Graham were lovely hosts. We also loved the little touches in the cottage, plus the games room in a converted barn. We will definitely go back. I've already recommended it to friends. There was a lovely pub just across the road too.

Booked last minute for 2 nights, what a find. Ideal for a few nights as a base for Whitby and surrounding area. Absolutely spotless inside and out. Man cave/Bar/Shed was an added bonus. Tranquil and close to animals and nature

United KingdomNothing! We will be returning as soon as we can! It’s the best! We highly recommend this property!
The location suited us to drive to a variety of coastal towns. The cottage was well proportioned, open & airy. All the amenities were of an excellent standard. A lovely patio was the icing on the cake. There were goats & sheep in the field opposite! We instantly felt relaxed here! The booklet in the cottage provided exceptional information about the local area & directions for guests.
