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 reviewBeautiful place to stay. It’s feelable from the first step you make inside that everything where is done with love and care for people. We came earlier than check-in and were able to leave our luggage in the storage place inside. Maria welcomed us with big smile and made sure we are comfortable. The apartment is just gorgeous - you have amazing view on the port, and from the roof you can see a beautiful view on the city. We had water, coffee, tea, snacks waiting for us in the room. Great experience! Highly recommended place to stay.

Verified reviewThe host had left our key in the lobby with my name tag. And in messages, she had left all other information about getting to and into the house. Everything was clear and went smoothly!
That extra bed for kids was not made! We arrived at 1:30 am, and the host knew we would arrive late; she knew we would be 4 people; we had discussed it before. I really, really didn't like the fact that this bed was not prepared.

Verified reviewThe apartment has a very charming and atmospheric design. We especially appreciated the thoughtful little touches like milk, toast, jam, pastries, tea, and coffee — it was a warm welcome. The rooftop view is beautiful, and we had a brief but pleasant encounter with the host, who was very kind and friendly.
The main reason we booked this apartment was the bathtub in the bedroom, which was clearly shown in all the photos — including those linked directly to our booking. Unfortunately, when we arrived, we found out there was no bathtub at all, and we were given a different unit. That was a big disappointment. Additionally, our first impression was affected by a dirty ashtray with cigarette butts left on the balcony from previous guests. Another major issue was the inability to sleep past 6 a.m. due to the sunlight shining directly into the room. The layout of the room, with a mirror reflecting the light, made it impossible to avoid. There was no way to cover the window either.

Verified reviewPerfect location, lovely view from the upstairs roof terrace.
We had room 2, we couldn’t get the hob to work, apartment is smaller than it looks in the pictures. There is no cleaning or changing of towels or linen, but there is a WhatsApp number to request things if you need them, we didn’t use this.

Verified reviewFirst of all when we arrived the kitchen was filled with ants. The owners did bring a spray and repellent after we persistently complained. Second, the pictures completely misrepresented the "room". We were accomodated in what appeared to be a closed off area od the rooftop balcony (which was a shared area). There were curtains separating us from the shared rooftop balcony but we had little privacy. I The size was very small, and it qas quite hot due to the fact this was not a room at all, but a closed of area of the rooftop.

we would've appreciated having the sofa bed already done, but I understand that not everybody would like that, so it's perfectly fine, maybe a couple of hooks could be added in the bathroom

Verified reviewThe location in Birgu was great and view from the balcony was amazing. We got a lot of assistance from Maria which was much appreciated. It was spacious and attractive and very comfortable.
It was a bit difficult to do any food preparation because there weren’t enough implements.

Verified reviewGreat location. Very quiet and interesting area and only a short walk to several traditional cafes. Checkin was also very straightforward.
There was no curtain on the top window. It looked lovely in the evening but the sun shone direct through it onto the sleeping area early in the morning.
