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.).

BrazilThe staff at the front desk is the most horrible I’Ve seen in years. It took me some time for somebody talk to me, when they did they told me Booking should have given my room number, so unless they send it to me, I couldnt check in. Bizarre situation.
Very well located, room is nice and complete

United KingdomIf you end up staying in Columbus Heights (not the main resort), the apartment is located half way up a steep hill, perfect if you have a vehicle (there is plenty of parking available) but otherwise be prepared for a good 10 minute uphill walk from the main road.
We booked last minute and although the booking was accepted, it turned out that there was not space in the main resort. Ms Dyer kindly arranged for us to stay in an apartment at Columbus Heights at no additional cost, but with full access to the main resort. The apartment was well equipped and clean, including a balcony with an amazing view overlooking Ocho Ríos town. The shower had great water pressure and hot water (not always a given in Jamaican hotels). Ms Dyer was very responsive and helpful with any inquiries we had. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.

United KingdomMy only issue turned out to be a positive, the one night stay at Sky castle so I can say it wasn't a issue for long
We loved the location and the water dispenser a very good idea. We had the pleasure of staying in her other apartment at Sky castle for 1 night due to unforeseen circumstances. it was a very lovely apartment and the resort is beautiful I have stayed there before on numerous occasions. We had a lovely say in both locations and would stay again.

The property was beautiful and the apartment was nicely laid out and clean. There is enough room for 4 people to stay and they even have a water cooler in the room. The house keeper was very pleasant and professional and she made the check-in process so easy. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. The beach has lovely beach beds too for relaxing.

United Statesthe property is apartment building individually owned. this room by this owner is a scam. She didn’t even know I booked her room and basically stop responding to me and the front desk. I was stranded in a whole nother country with no where to go. finally she responded very rude and never apologized. After she found us another room 5hrs later). she made me pay cash deposit or I couldn’t get my key. I told front desk a day before my departure I was leaving at 5am and they told me once they check the room they would give me my cash deposit at checkout. when checkout came the front desk couldn’t find my deposit and said she came to the hotel and took the deposit. it’s her room so she can do that. the hotel tried to call but no answer. unfortunately we had to leave without our deposit and catch our flight. she is now saying she can only give me my deposit back by check.

United StatesChecking in was difficult and inconvenient. We initially booked with Booking.com around noon on Sunday, June 5, 2022. We received a confirmation and proceeded to the facility from another facility that had issues. When we arrived at Sandcastle the receptionist informed us that we would need to wait for an agent to bring the keys or send the booking information including where to get the key. We waited and waited and that never happened. We finally purchased a room outright. The agent did not get to the property until 6 hours after our arrival- due to internet issues. The other issue is the lack of WiFi on the property itself. Although we were able to get WiFi in our apartment, once we left out there was no WiFi; that was a quite inconvenient. Other than that, this is facility deserves an A+!
We enjoyed our stay very much. The location was perfect, the room was spacious, clean, and quiet. The view from the room was outstanding! Our receptionist was kind and patient. Every employee that we encountered was friendly and welcoming. Access to shops and taxis was really convenient.
