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 KingdomJust FYI… You have to be prepared to park a little way from the house but we found one plenty of places to do that after driving up to drop off our suitcases.
Location was brilliant. Right in the heart of old Whitby at the base of the 199 steps, and minutes from the beach and the amazing cobbled streets with their fascinating shops and eating places. Tim and Julie were so kind and helpful, wonderful people. Our two friends from the YSA had a great time staying there too. We all loved it!

United Kingdomthere was a draft through the room; not enough to be unacceptable in april but as the heating was off it made the room cool the bathroom is very small; whilst that is not an issue in itself, the basin was in a corner, and the shelf protruded over it to the extent that care was needed not to bang your head when using it
as close to the abbey steps as you are going to get very clean room and excellent shower communication with hosts was quick and easy bedding was very warm and comfortable matress

United KingdomNothing, just could not access the Netflix for kid, but this was not a big deal.
The location is superb and very strategic: surrounded by cafes, pubs, and local amenities, very close to 199 steps and Whitby Abbey. The room was perfect for the three of us, the beds were comfortable and clean, the bathroom was spacious and clean, and toiletries (towels for 3, hair/body and hand wash) were provided. A kettle, teas, cookies, and coffee were provided (if possible, please also provide decaf coffee). The host provided clear instructions so our check-in and check-out were smooth. Overall, we love staying here and would like to come back in the future!

United KingdomThere was an issue with the lock on the front door which was quickly resolved with a phone call to the owner. In room 1 there is a big glass door which, on the morning (light mornings) let a lot of light through which woke us up extra early.
The accommodation was finished to a high standard and very clean.

United KingdomI wasn't able to open the window for fresh air. Can be noisy due to being very close to a pub and a passing place for visitors, but that would be most places in Whitby.
It was a lovely sized room with all we needed for an overnight stay. Great location to be within walking distance of all amenities. Wi fi, tv and tea/coffee making facilities. Towels and linen provided. Private bathroom with shower. Clean. The communication from the property host was brilliant, and he was very helpful.

Lots of nearby coffee shops and cafes provided lots of choice for breakfast. Communication with the managers of the property was efficient and timely. Will definitely book again if we can!
