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 KingdomCleanliness- dirty floors/carpets and rubbish underneath the single beds. Just required a general clean, kitchen work surfaces/cutlery etc. Also the garden required weeding and the gate repaired.
Brilliant location

United KingdomOutside kerb appeal was poor with both the garden and drive needing a tidy , long grass needing cutting and drive looked scruffy with lots of weeds growing - not reflecting the inside of the property. In the kitchen the freezer needed defrosting, as it was difficult to keep the door closed. The main oven is still not working but the top oven was fine for what we needed. The Dining room did not feel very private or cosy as the main entrance patio doors did not have a blind or curtains and therefore it felt anyone passing by could look straight in. A cracked shaving mirror and faulty sink plug let the otherwise lovely bathroom down. With just a little bit more attention to detail we would have easily scored this a 9.
Seaton House is lovely and spacious, while we were just 2. there would have been plenty of space for four. It was nice to have a separate lounge to kitchen diner and a shower and bath meant all tastes were catered for. While not being overly furnished and equipped, it had everything we needed to be able to self-cater. Off street parking was a real bonus. The property itself is very well located being in a quiet area that is only a few minutes walk to the sea front - and fish and chip shops. It was perfect place for us to explore Hartlepool and the surrounding area, including trips to the Naval Museum and Heugh Battery, and the Nuclear Power Station Visitor's Centre, which we greatly enjoyed.

United KingdomDishes & cutlery was dirty in cupboards. No curtains/blinds on patio doors which was the main entrance to house. No privacy in dining room/kitchen open space due to bare patio windows.
Easy access, nice location in quiet street. Good communication from hosts prior to arrival. Nice beach five minutes walk & park area 2 minutes away. Close to train station. Comfortable but basic accommodation. Had everything we needed for a short stay. Host messaged to advise oven wasn’t working properly & provided an air fryer for us to have cooking facilities. Beds were comfortable. Parking on driveway. Would stay again.

United KingdomWasn't very clean. No black out curtains so bedrooms were very bright at night time. I believe we may have been the first guests, so I attribute some of the negatives as simply being due to that.
Fantastic location and modern decor.

United Kingdomon arrival, the property had no heating or hot water. it was a very cold day and we had travelled for hours. I called the management who said the boiler was broken and they would send out an engineer. we waited several hours. in the end a family member who lives locally had to come and fix it despite several calls on my part urging them to please send someone out. We were disappointed as we would have expected heating and hot water as a standard basic requirement of the property. The property was basic, and not too clean - snail trails on the carpet , spiders, cobwebs, crumbs on the floor. the freezer was broken and there were some plastic casings coming away in the kitchen. the front garden was very overgrown . after feedback the owner seemed unconcerned. Overall a rather disappointing experience. Such a shame as the location was absolutely perfect for us but because of other issues it is unlikely that we will return.
the location was very good - lovely beach and park within a minute or two of the property. The beds were comfortable.
