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 StatesLet me start off by saying the property itself was ok. I booked king room with ocean view. The room did not exceed my expectations because I thought it would’ve been more spacious and it’s basically an attic. Secondly there’s only one mirror and it’s in the bathroom and you can barely see yourself because it’s small. Also while staying there, there was a water issue. The water was gone for almost the whole day with no solution and little communication.
The location was great because it basically in the town of Ocho Rios. Also I like the fact that room service was everyday.

GermanyVery steep way to get to the hotel, the whole Hotelarea needs to get a renovation. Paint is coming off the walls and so many dirty places with rubbish laying around right in the middle of the hotel. If I could rate only the room I would give it a solid 6.5 and the hotel area a 2. For the price we had way better smaller homestay and hostels
Very big bed and room. Gardenarea was nice. Close to the city center (10 min walk - also to beach). Staff was nice and helpful with organizing tours.

JamaicaIt would've been nice to have a mirror in the bedroom or living so that you could see yourself while getting dressed. There was only 1 mirror in the bathroom over the face basin, which, of course, you can't see your full body in. While doing my makeup, my spouse wanted to use the bathroom, and I had to pause as there were no other mirrors. Also, the buildings could really use some paint, I saw other reviews about it, and I am sure it's not cheap or simple to paint or renovate all those buildings, but seeing as the pool is the only attraction, I think they can atleast paint the ones surrounding the pool as those seems to be the worst or most in need of a touch up. The pool opens at 9, and we sat and watch the pool guy cleaned the pool, and he allowed us to go in right after, and when we went in, it was still filled with bugs and flies, not that the guy wasn't doing his best to clean it, but the water probably hasn't been changed in a really, really really long time so I was very uncomfortable and had to get out.
I loved the fact that there was a kitchen area, so we were able to make our own breakfast and little meals if we weren't in the mood to go out. The gardening and landscaping are very beautiful.

JamaicaThe fact that the tub flooded the bathroom and when we asked for extra towels we were told no because we had to use the towel to dry the water up. They brought a mop after we were finished. Then in the morning, there was no water, had to call and asked why is there no water. Then gonna hear that they’re working on the pipes so therefore we can have a late check out. We didn’t want a late check out because we had an event to attend in Kingston. Would’ve been nice if we had known this instead of having to call and ask what’s happening.
The location was great. It was a last minute booking. Staff was friendly. Room was clean and nice

Property is beautiful to take pictures. It was clean, and the staff were very nice. Bathroom and room was immaculate. Prime location close to everything beach, restaurants, night life, tours and everything. A really family with their own food truck comes and serve breakfast for guest. Real authentic Jamaican dishes.
