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 StatesOur room had a funny smell, you could tell the furniture is pretty worn, and I’m not 100% sure the room was deep cleaned after the previous guests. I took my travel sized Lysol wipes and cleaned the counters, wiped the toilets, etc.
We’ve stayed at Simpson Bay Resort 3 times and we love the location. Not far from the airport, walkable to restaurants, the beach, bars, grocery stores, etc.

CanadaToo large for our taste. Prefer smaller and more personal venues if staying for long periods. Since we were there just over night before catching a flight home it served its purpose.
Clean, quiet and convenient. Plenty of restaurant choices in the area. Convenient quick snack and coffee bar in lobby.

United KingdomWe got a late half price deal and it still felt massively overpriced. Given what was being paid it seemed the height to cheek to then change additional money to access proper fast WiFi! The included WiFi can barely be used for messaging. The room smelled like an old tomb which was related to the air conditioning I think. The tv was huge but did not provide access to streaming services. On Friday night the music from a venue at the other side of Simpson bay was so loud it kept us awake for a while. There was also a slightly aggressive undertone in the agreement we signed on check in which included a clause that late checkout by an hour would result in a $100 charge! Not a very Caribbean vibe, which we have thankfully encountered elsewhere
The best feature is the great pool with pool bar overlooking the stunning Simpson Bay. The pool bar was great and the bar staff was great as well. The iguanas that hang out on the rocks beside the sea were interesting to see as well (they didn’t try to actually come into the pool area thankfully!) The sunset view from the room was good as well. The place was clean and comfortable.

SpainNothing, everything was perfect.
The swimming pool was great, the semiprivate beach with the free lounge chairs is amazing, and the room was super comfortable. Beds and pillows were the best we've tried in any hotel, ever. The location is also great and lots of taxis available. There are no bugs, no wasps and very few mosquitoes. They have done a great job of keeping them out. Breakfast was especially good too, with lots of mexican options and custom omelettes. Also the Aqua mania activities right in the resort were great!

Trinidad and TobagoThe fact that absolutely no accommodation was made for early arrivals. We waited 7 hrs before getting access to our room. It was my husband first visit to the islandn. What was more disrespectful was staff's failurer to keep first time guest aware of what was happening, even when asked a question no follow-up or care was given. The manager was just as cold, callus and politically correct in his delebrate and lack of empathy intervention.
The breakfast was great. The outside bar was good and the beaches.
