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 KingdomThey've got everything right. It's a lovely place to stay. Great little seaside town with amazing history. I've spent a lot of time in hotels and B&Bs. Coastal Joy has been one of the nicest places I've stayed.
This is a gem, in a lovely little town which is a great stepping off point for the stunning Northumberland coast further North. It's not a B&B. It's a very high quality place to stay. You can get a great breakfast at the Maritime Museum, which is a 5 minute walk away. Gary has a dangerously detailed knowledge of all of the restaurants, food outlets and pubs in Newbiggin. You'll need to put 15 minutes aside with a notebook to absorb it all. Room was spotless, beautifully furnished, including blinds and curtains, with everything you could possibly need. Hair dryer, iron, ironing board, fan. You even have your own smart speaker. Loads of proper hangers in the wardrobe. There is a fridge in the room with bottles of water, milk and home made cakes. Free. On the second floor landing is a fridge full of choccy treats, drinks, and a microwave in case you need to heat up a pizza in the middle of the night. With an honesty box! You can drink coffee and tea till you get caffeine poisoning. Great coffee machine with plenty of pods. TV has excellent reception, DVD player and a library of DVDs on the first floor landing, plus lots of books. Bathroom spotless, with fluffy white towels and shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. Shower works perfectly. In the bathroom cabinet are shower caps, toothbrush, toothpaste, shower caps, etc etc. I could hardly get my case shut! Right on the main street, 2 minutes from the beach and free car park, where you can park free for 72 hours. Lots of on street parking. I visited on August Bank Holiday Monday, and there were lots of spaces free day and night. Lovely little area at the back of the house with hot tub and sauna, which is a real sun trap. You can come and go through the front door between 7am and 11pm. If you fancy a night out in the Bigg Market till 3am, there's a key box to get in after hours. The hosts always seem to be lurking downstairs, very unobtrusively, and I felt very happy leaving valuables in the room.

In the room there was everything that you needed and the biscuits and sweets went down very well! The majority of the time there was free parking right outside the guesthouse.
