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 KingdomThere wasn’t anything that I didn’t like about the property but most probably not the best location for a solo female traveller unless you are driving.
If you need a quiet location which is not a far drive from the hip strip this is perfect. It was clean and just a nice place to stay. There’s a gym right across the road which was a bonus. Shops are literally right down the road too.

AustraliaThe internet was unreliable at times, but great when it worked. Would sometimes not connect, and sometimes not load. The blinds in the bedroom are not block out so the light from outside would filter into the room
The apartment is spacious, new and clean. It has all the amenities you require. The bed is very comfortable, albeit it a little high and the bathroom is nice and tidy It is close to Clock which is very happening with lots of local route taxis, markets and places to eat.

JamaicaLittle maintaince on the touchpad for the front door handle. Clearer instructions on the screen mirroring feature on the TV. The instructions displayed when you go to select that option, its outdated and is mainly for Android, so if it's even to print instructions and laminate them on the TV stand...stating like for YouTube or Netflix you can use screen share feature on those platforms , find and select the TV...watch and enjoy! Something along those lines would make it easier and faster for others. As well as, the delay it has when displaying movies or YouTube via a smartphone.
I enjoyed how light and simple the place felt. Feels fresh and comfortable.

JamaicaIf breakfast was added then Mika would have to ask me to leave 😉....that would have made the stay more exceptional. I love the fact that the apartment was fully equipped and modernized and felt homely. Mika was very responsive, helpful and patient. The keyless door gave me a sense of security had a very restful night...bed was comfy. The place was very clean I had no problems or reservations about using the rags or towels on my skin. Very close to uptown shopping area either by walking or to get a taxi. This is definitely my go to place once I overnight in Mobay. Will definitely stay longer...thank you Mika...Awesome!!

United KingdomThe only thing I would say is that it wasn’t feasible to walk to and from the beach everyday. And in my downtimes, I would have liked the option of a TV.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at The Shelton. The apartment exceeded expectations in terms of how comfortable I felt. It was exceptionally clean, very modern and aesthetically pleasing. Mika, the host was very responsive and any requests were dealt with promptly. Ms Nola upstairs was very gracious and warm which made me feel comfortable and safe. It really felt like my home-from-home. I loved the keyless access, it made me feel free not having to carry a key every time I left the apartment and it felt secure. I also liked that the bedroom was lockable by key on the outside, meaning that there was that little bit of extra security and peace of mind. I felt a sense of peace and safety staying at the Shelton and I will surely return.

United StatesI stayed only 1 night and wanted to stay longer.
We parked inside a gate and walked down a ray of stairs that led you to a beautiful 1 bedroom apartment that looks brand new. The water was not hot but did get luke warm. There is comfort wifi and great ambience. Ceiling fan and Ac available which is a plus. The bed stands very high and very comfortable. The living room was equipped with a huge full mirror and furniture as well as the kitchen was furnished with all you need to cook. I loved it so much I went back and stayed another night and will be going back. The area is located walking distance to downtown as well.

United KingdomHaving to leave. Could stay for months. That's how homely it felt.
The host is exceptionally kind. Mika first cared if I was feeling safe and if I was at a safe location. I didn't have a taxi number but was quickly sorted. I don't think I ever been so cared for by a host before, and that felt so warm. On arrival, Tamika, the host assistant, was so welcoming and showed me around the apartment and was assertive when saying if I needed anything, I could let her know. The apartment is gorgeous and has absolutely everything you need. If you decide to cook, there's a fully equipped kitchen with cute plates. At the lounge, there's a comfortable sofa and Netflix, so you can chill after a long day. The bed is so comfortable and I had a lovely night sleep. There's also a cute garden where you can sunbathe on days you don't feel like going out. At night, you can get beautiful views of the city lights from the upper part of the property. So beautiful. It's well located if you want to be near town and it has taxis going up and down regularly. It's a good place to stay if you just arrived Mobay or if you want to go either Negril or Portland after. I felt welcomed, comfortable, and safe. I love Mount Salem. There's all sorts of amenities, and you can feel the sense of community around the area. Even found a hairdresser. Will definitely be back and totally recommend.

AustraliaCommunication with the host was quite poor. We sent 3 emails ( we travel without a phone) the day before our arrival, telling her we had arrived in Montego Bay and could she please confirm our early check in(which had previously been agreed to by email). All we got back was “Welcome to Montego Bay”. Not very helpful. We arrived after much confusion from the taxi driver, who was a born and bred local, trying to find the place, which is not signposted and no house number is published on the booking site….luckily it was on a short street and he went up and down the street asking people where the place was. (It’s on the corner of the street, in case you have the same trouble.) The lady there was able to ring the host and she told us that early check in was not possible and to come back at 3pm. Understandably we were very early, but some better communication would have put our minds to rest, and we would have planned something else for those few hours. Also, the shower was almost cold…could not get it above lukewarm…I know it’s the tropics, but you can’t wash your hair with cold water.
The apartment itself was lovely…modern, clean and comfortable. The bed was high, but comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with cutlery and crockery, but could have done with a toaster…something that seems to be lacking in most places weve stayed in the West Indies. It did, however, have a toaster oven, which was very handy. The apartment faced a quite busy road, but the noise did not bother us as the bedroom was quiet enough.
