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 StatesThe WiFi was out but they got it back quickly. The sink in the bathroom had terrible drainage and that was a real annoyance with brushing your teeth and washing the kids faces at night. But they will probably get that done asap.
The property was really nice with lots of pretty landscaping, plants and cool decorative things. We really liked the owner and staff. They made a delicious and full breakfast every morning and it was just so nice. They were helpful with anything you needed.

United KingdomThe night manager was often no where to be found. But that does not take away from the safe and secureness it’s just if you had a question or wanted to check anything he was not there.
Valerie, she 100% made our stay. The breakfast every day was delicious and different, you could have Jamaican or American or fruit. It is a charming b&b with loads of personality.

United StatesThe noisy road that was NOT the fault of Mynt Retreat.
I liked the very relaxing atmosphere of Mynt Retreat. It's not a beachfront resort so if that's what you're looking for you should keep searching. The only downside is that Mynt Retreat is located right off a VERY busy road!! You will hear vehicles large and small whizzing by, honking their horns, at all times of day and night! If you're a sound sleeper, good for you. If you're a light sleeper like myself, you may want to bring some earplugs if you want a restful night's sleep. I'm became ill while in Montego Bay and Valerie, the owner of Mynt Retreat, and her very loyal employees, Whitney and Suzette, took excellent care of me. Many thanks to all three of these wonderful hard-working women!

SwitzerlandI really enjoyed my stay at Mynt B&B. I got to the hotel a little early and was still able to check straight into my room. Valerie is very personable and cares deeply about the well-being of her guests. The room was clean and like the pictures. The breakfast was delicious and freshly prepared. It was specially adapted to my gluteen intolerance. There are many beautiful beaches in the area. I can recommend Doctors Cave. A beautiful and quiet beach not far from the hotel where you can really unwind. In the end, Valerie organized a transfer to the airport for me. When the driver was more than 5 minutes late, she dropped me there herself free of charge. It's remarkable how she had a direct solution and answer for all of my little holiday problems. I can definitely recommend the hotel and will vacation there again.

The room was just fabulous. The breakfast was reasonable depending on what was chosen. A fruit platter beautifully prepared and presented each morning. Staff very friendly - more so the owner she was lovely. The views were stunning and the bed was e our ours and very comfy. There was also a nice bar and restaurant next door. There was also a very pretty garden to sit in as well as terrace. There were nice tables and chairs on shared terrace

United KingdomNothing to dislike :)
Valerie was definitely a highlight. She is such a warm and caring person who goes out of her way to help you out and share information about the area. Suzette who cooked the breakfast and looked after the rooms was also a delight every morning. It was a pleasure relaxing in the garden (we spent a whole day away from the crowds just relaxing and reading) and we even got to see Steve the hummingbird. Valerie suggested a brilliant driver, Isobel, who really took care of us. Although it is away from the main area there is a restaurant next door which serves delicious escovitch fish (red snapper).

I liked the garden a lot and that it was right next to a restaurant. I also appreciated the breakfast.

SwitzerlandThe Retreat is an oasis and super close to the airport. However you are a bit away from Restaurants, Shops etc. But it's still possible to walk there in like 20 min or get a driver.
The B&B is surrounded by a beautiful green garden. The breakfast is served on a little terrace, just amazing and delicious. The owner Valerie is an angel. She is so helpful, honest and real and absolutely understands the guests needs. I felt sick and she cooked a tee with herbs from the garden for me. We loved Mynth Retreat and can reccomend it 100% and would come back at any time.
