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 KingdomOnly minor thing was the shower room not having heating, but the heat from the rest of the apartment kept it warm enough.
Amazing view. Very smart, clean and cosy. To watch a storm raging outside, waves battering the beach and see the wind blowing everything about but not hear a thing just shows how well soundproofed the apartment is. Lovely and thoughtful host aswell. Made my long weekend stay perfect.

United KingdomNothing it was brilliant just what we wanted and more. ... if I had to mention anything it probably wouldn't be suitable if you have mobility issues as there are 3 flights of stairs and it is located up near the Castle but we loved the location was perfect for us ☺️
Beautiful apartment with lovely furnishings. There is plenty of space in all the rooms, an amazing view from the living room which also has a large dining table, a lovely dressing room, kitchen, gorgeous shower and the most important bit for me is a comfy bed and this is superb I slept like a log. Raf is an excellent host, very welcoming, shows you round and sorts out parking right outside, left the car there and walked everywhere as the location is central to North and South Bays so it's great for exploring, very quiet apartment no noise, will definitely be going back 😁

We really enjoyed our stay here. Raphael met us at the property, he showed us in and gave us a brief tour and a run down of how things worked, he had even provided some milk which was unexpected but very much appreciated after our journey. The property is immaculate with everything you could possible needed for a short break. We ate out, apart from breakfast, but the kitchen was really well appointed and everything was clean and looked new. The decor in the apartment is tasteful and we really loved the artwork and the place mats. The view from the sitting room and dressing room is amazing! We found that the property was well situated for visiting/exploring both beaches, the castle and the town/other attractions-I don't think we took the same route to or from the property in the time we were there. We hope to stay again in the future.

United KingdomLoved everything about this property. I don't think we could have found a better location and value for money for the size. The property is in a nice quiet residential road, walking distance from the station. It's pretty much at the heart of the peninsula of Scarborough. So you're fairly elevated above the sea which contributes to a great view. Scarborough Castle is literally 5 minutes walk up the road with plenty of winding and historical pathways around it and easy ways down to the South beach and the centre of Scarborough within minutes. If you walk 5 minutes the other way , you are pretty much overlooking the North Bay, again with a spectacular view of the castle to your right and easy access down The apartment itself was also awesome. Clean, well kept, modern, secure, spacious and had good WIFI connection as well a good selection of digital channels to choose from on the TV. The view however from the front room window was spectacular. It gave a full view off the whole of the south bay, the cliffs, the lighthouse , the old market place, historical building and the sea. It was almost like watching a picturesque moving painting. The property has a fully functional kitchen as well, dinning table and a comfortable furniture. There was plenty of facilities close by supermarkets, cafes and restaurants, so eating in or out was no problem. Raph the host who met us at the property was also a very cool guy. Showed us where everything we needed to know in the property, showed us which directions everything is and was available if we needed him. I would not hesitate to book this apartment again!

United KingdomFlat was very clean and in excellent order looks recently converted or decorated, the views were excellent over west Scarborough, the whole town is accessible by foot and there is plenty of choice for food. The shower is good as is the heating which was easily controlled. The owner met us on arrival with the keys and also gave us parking cards for our stay, the parking in on street but we did not have an issue finding parking spots after our days out in the car. Good WiFi and Smart TVs in Main room and Bedroom are a bonus on wet days. The apartment is on the 3rd floor so do not take a huge suitcase take smaller ones it will make it easier getting up the stairs and while it is easy to walk to the beach be warned its a steep walk uphill back :),

United KingdomNothing springs to mind - The View has it all.
This was a last minute booking and, in all honesty, it could not have been any better. The location is perfect and the property had everything we could have asked for. Very clean, tastefully furnished, comfortable and cosy (very efficient heating) with a well equipped kitchen. The apartment's name is well chosen too as the view from the living room window overlooking Scarborough South Bay is absolutely fantastic. Would certainly come back again.
