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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

From the moment we stepped across the threshold to this amazing guest house, we were looked after by Annie and Alex.this guest house is filled with love and hard work. We would highly recommend you stay here when visiting Scarborough. Our room was amazing, clean , and comfortable with a lovely hot shower , we loved our breakfast, and my wife opted for porridge while I had the full English, both of which we thoroughly enjoyed. Annie and Alex are the friendliest of hosts who will make your stay here so enjoyable.

United KingdomJasmine 1 A highlight of my trip! Review of St Michael's Guest House Pending review Reviewed I stayed here for a night, and I can easily say this is the best place I’ve ever stayed overnight! I travel for a lot of concerts, and never have I been somewhere as lovely as this, and it’s such a decent price too. The hosts, Alex and Annie are absolutely lovely, and they really make the stay worth it, I felt so welcomed by them. They also had amazing knowledge of the local area which helped me out, and were lovely to speak with :) The room was so clean, and the bed was so comfortable, there was not a single fault I could pick. There was a TV, a shower, a kettle, and absolutely everything worked perfectly! I would also say it’s an amazing location as it’s not far from the train station, and it’s also super close to the North Bay attractions and the town. Finally, I had one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had, those pancakes were unreal and I would absolutely recommend them to anybody if you have the chance. Thank you so much for a lovely stay , it’s a memory, I’ll definitely remember fondly !

United KingdomIt was perfect. The location was ideal as it was only a short stroll to local amenities, the bedroom was a good size and very comfy beds. We would definitely recommend having breakfast, you could choose exactly what you wanted to eat and the quality of the food was very good. More importantly the hosts Annie and Alex made the stay, they were so welcoming and enjoyed our chats at breakfast each morning. I would recommend st Michael's to anybody planning to visit Scarborough. We will definitely be back soon.

I had the best two nights' sleep I had had in a long time. The bed was very comfortable and the temperature of the room perfect. It was warm outside and there was a fan should I have needed it but I was ok. There was plenty of tea and coffee and am sure, had I ran out, then I could have been provided with more. The shower was hot and powerful and the large bathroom had everything anyone needs. I didn't have breakfast because I have a very small appetite and it would have been wasteful. Now the proprietors. Alex and Annie greeted me with a cup of tea and a full explanation of the area. They told me how to get to where I had wanted to go and had a passion for sharing their knowledge of the area. Local information was provided without me having to ask. I didn't see them much but then that was because I went out early and was gone for the day. They both bid me farewell and a safe onward journey. The little touches that you get from an independent business were spot on.
