How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewAmazing host - great; friendly, professional & checks in via text to make sure your needs are met. The apartment is on the upper level of a 2 storey house at the end of a cul-de-sac. Nice area; we had nobody trouble us while there. The property has a balcony at the front (facing the neighbours) and side (opposite some trees/spare land), where you can pull out a couple of the foldaway chairs and sit. Kitchen has a 2 ring camping stove, so if you're a Gordon Ramsay wannabe, it may not meet your needs, but if you're flipping eggs & eating out, it does the job! Apartment is spacious, comfortable, flooded with natural light and as seen in photos. Host's top tip: open the side door to allow the cool breeze to flow through the apartment. Appreciated the full size dining table and chairs. Mod cons include WIFI, S.M.A.R.T TV & amazing air con in the main bedroom. Second bedroom was locked and not available for use, so cannot comment on it. Handy local supermarket a five minute walk away with great food 'shack' run by Jamaicans across the supermarket's car park. Can take taxi to Rodney Bay; it's a bit of a drive. If you need the host, he's very responsive and lives on the side of the house, so if you need any support, he's nearby, but leaves you alone to enjoy your holiday. He kindly allowed us to check out late at no extra charge.

Verified reviewSet in a lovely area , quiet but close to facilities if required. The owner went out of his way to ensure my stay was comfortable, and if I required anything, he was easily contacted. The accommodation had everything I needed and was very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend for short stay or long stay.

Verified reviewI and my son stayed here for 4 days in June to see the World Cup Cricket Match at the Darren Sammy Cricket ground, Gros Islet, not too far from this place in Corinth. On arrival by bus, from Vieux Fort airport, in the Castries bus station, the owner of the apartment, Bonaventure picked us up. The apartment is as described in the pictures and the description. It has everything you need for a short trip. Nice and very safe neighborhood. Very conveniently located to a supermarket store, local bus stop, beach, and the bigger market and entertainment district of Rodney Bay. There is a Jamaican BBQ place selling Jerk Chicken right close to our apartment, which I found very good for picking up food after a day's trip to the city. Bona, the owner of the apartment is a real pleasure to deal with. He is a great guy, very friendly and responsive, who communicated very well and gave me clear instructions to travel around the city. He was always available by WhatsApp whenever I needed to find out something. On any given day, I would rather prefer to stay in an Airbnb where the owner is so super friendly and communicates very well. He even gave us bananas from his garden and one evening gave us a ride to the city to pick up up food and showed us around. All these extras made the stay pleasant and memorable. He was always a phone call away for help and local tips. Whenever I come back to this part of the world, we would stay here again.
Everything is there for a short stay. Good value for the money.

Verified reviewSpacious accommodation.
Best to get directions from the host. It's easy once you know what to look for, but don't rely on GPS or the taxi driver being familiar with the area.
