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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 StatesNo towel, no TV. The lady who collected the money was nice but I won’t even say much about the gentleman. The airport is just out front. Plane constantly flying gets annoying. One night stay is all I would stay.

United StatesThe internet was kind of hit or miss. The rooms are nice and very clean but no bathroom door just a curtain and glass door with a curtain that goes into room (upstairs downstairs seem more private from what I could see) it is very nice but I would have preferred a solid door for privacy going into the room and for the bathroom.
It is very clean and Bev is a great host. Nice location walking distance to a beach and places to eat. The owner is nice and has lovely gardens around the house. Was not bothered by the planes but you hear them on occasion but much less than anticipated.

United KingdomRemember to bring your toiletries and towel . Also plus tea, coffee and sugar and there is no microwave .Other than that everything else was perfect.
Jamrock is less than 9 mins drive from airport but sounds of planes rarely disturb the tranquility of JamRock. So peaceful and quiet with a beautiful sea view and only sounds heard are the waves outside bedroom window. Wake up in the night and even the insects have gone to sleep. The facilities were good. I had the lounge, sun terrace and kitchenette to myself. Clean room , fast internet and very comfy bed. My host Bev was so friendly and made me feel at home. She was informative on local places to eat. Snappaz , lovely fish restaurant which is about 8 minutes walk from Jamrock. Food is lovely and staff very friendly. If you want to stop over after landing and need to freshen up before moving on to your next destination , Jamrock is a place that I would recommend and one that I will be coming back to.

United KingdomI know the property said that they don’t provide towels but it would have made things easier to swim/ bathe/ change if they had. Not too many restaurant choices near to the guest house. Two fans in the room but it was still very hot. There were lots of mosquitos which were unrelenting!
Next to the sea and able to have a swim before my flight. I could see the sea from the room and hear the waves which was very appealing. There is a lovely patio area with tables, chairs and loungers with steps leading to the sea. Ms Bev was very helpful and accommodating.

NorwayThis is probably on me for not reading the ad well enough, but I didn't realize we were gonna be staying in a room at someone's house... This was fine, and the host was helpful but it felt like we were just "crashing" at someone's home. It felt a bit like we were in the way staying there. But again, I should have informed myself of this earlier!!! That's on me.
The location of the house is absolutely stunning, with an ocean view. However, it is right behind the airport so there is not much to do other than that... We only stayed for one night so we didn't really get to enjoy the place, but would have been wonderful to spend a day there. It was truly one of the most beautiful views I have seen.

United StatesIt’s proximity to the airport was a bit too close and directly under the plane’s flight path. Also, air conditioning would be great. it got very hot in the room. Also, advanced warning that payment was only accepted in cash would have been nice. maybe a remind the day before so we could be prepared.
Bev was great. She recommended a wonderful restaurant for dinner. The room was clean and had an incredible view. We lounged on the deck feeling the breeze for several hours.

United KingdomNo air conditioning, which is inexplicable. Night temperature was 27°c/80°fwith a real-feel of 33°c/91°f, hotter during the day. No Aircon, little respite from the ceiling fans in the room and lounge area. The freestanding fan in the bedroom was OK, but aircon would elevate the place. No full-length mirror in the bedroom. Two mirrors in the bathroom, one chest up, the other neck up. Pre-trip communication from the owner was gruff and not industry standard (I travel for a living, never experienced anything like it on six continents). The points being made could have been articulated better if the owner understood their impact on customer experience. I advise seeking a hospitality comms expert to draft some standard text (that's not in ALL CAPS). These things make a huge difference.
Miss Bev was a great host. Warm, curteous, and helpful. The location was fantastic - close to the airport and a short drive from 'town'. Private access to the ocean - a real treat in Jamaica where so much of the shoreline is owned by big resorts. Peace! No TVs blaring. Other guests were quiet and respectful. The ultra clean, bright, spacious room with a huge, comfortable bed. A decent restaurant just a five minute walk away. The competitive price. Great for a couple of days before onward travel to another part of the island.
