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.).

CanadaI picked this hotel as I had to catch the Knutsford express the next morning to go to aport Antonio. They didn't have a chef/ cook during my stay, as she hurt herself whilst cooking Having a stand in chef would have been nice. I had to take a $40 taxi to going town for my dinner, so it kind of blew my budget and defeated the whole purpose of staying and eating within the premises. As a solo female traveler, there's a rough bunch our there and I understand people are impoverished here, do it was a case of fendng off unwarranted male energy. All in all, if they didn't have a kitchen, I wouldn't stay there
It's a quaint B@B., with old school vibes. Views from the balcony have you partial sea view.

JamaicaI was a little disappointed that we could not get a late checkout, I was willing to pay the charges but was told the place was very busy and booked, so just have to understand that policy. I travelled for work with my spouse and wanted him to relax in the room until I completed work, so he ended up having to come awork with me. Sugar at the tea station in the room would be a plus for local guests. A a minor thing was that the ceiling fan and the light in the ceiling fan had one switch, so it meant that each time the fan is on the light is also on, not all guests love the AC units.
The Blue Orchid was a very good stay, it was conveniently located to the town, airport and the area where I had to go to work. The room was clean, had a coffee station, hairdryer, fridge, microwave. The bathroom had a LED mirror with bluetooth that you could play music from, it was relaxing while showering. The young gentleman who welcomed us at the front desk was nice, and the senior staff that escorted us to our room ensured we were satisfied with the room itself. The lovely female staff who prepared our complimentary continental breakfast was pleasant. All in all a great experience.

I appreciated the location close to the airport Staff extremely friendly My flight was delayed approx 4 hrs from Canada, Davion ensure I was picked up ASAP by Hawes (security). This made me feel valued. Both Davion and Hawes ensured my arrival and check in at the Blue Orchid was satisfactory. Housekeeping staff Simone and Delva check in on me regularly. I met the other security personnel Philip on my final night, he frequently asked if I was doing well and needed any assistance. I observed Philip frequently walking around the property to ensure safety for all on the property.
