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 reviewClean and spacious apartment. Good location.
Very disappointed with the service. Air conditioner of the main bedroom was not working when checked in. After due diligence (I had to follow up) maintenance people visited in evening next day, could not sort the issue. Several other issues - no batteries in tv remote and AC remote, could not stream on WiFi, some plug points not working...Although paid for 2 bedrooms, used only one smaller bedroom due AC issues. The maintenance team could not repair the AC and offered to come the next day i.e. the third day. However we declined as it was disruptive to our holiday. The company also offered to send some batteries etc the next day, i.e. third day of our visit but I refused as I was really fed up following up the issues. Prior to check in, the company had sent a form with a long list of legal disclaimers, which I signed. However in return the service provision to us/guests was not up to standard.What about our legal rights for deficient services?

Verified reviewThe location was good. They have properly working ACs. Close to bus station.
We were surprised from the fact when we arrived in the apartment there were cockroaches. Some of them dead some still alive. The reaction of the personal was unsatisfying. They told us to go to the shop and buy repellents by ourselsvs. We tried several times to talk to them and someone to come to deal with the problem, but without any success. This was very unfair. In the end of the day we were the pest control and buy repellents, spray them, end clean the mess. Very disappointing!

Verified reviewThe location of the apartment is in a very good part of the Tashbish district, in front of Manoel island. Easy to get within 10 minutes by taxi to Valletta's old town. Within 5 minute's walk are located a few nice cafes, for every taste - from Turkish kebab to French croissants. In a 15 to 20-minute walk is a ferry from Sliema to Valletta or boat trips around the island or to Gozo island.
At the time of arrival, the room was still being cleaned. It took around one hour of waiting. It is expected that staff will inform in advance that the room is not ready.

Verified reviewWhen doing a booking via booking.com, I expect to just do a few clicks in the application and it is done. Here instead, there was a long and complex check in process, with additional limitations not explained in advanced, such as a limit of kw/h in electricity consumption (and weirdly no way of knowing what was the meter when checking in and checking out), a requirement to sign a separate rental agreement contract, a requirement to leave an additional 250 EUR deposit... And many emails back and forth. The property is nice, but I will not go thru the same hassle again.

Verified reviewComfy place in a good location
On arrival there were cockroaches in multiple rooms which was disgusting. Had maintenance come and spray the place twice during our 5 wk stay. So frustrating however they did respond quickly to our request. Did find dead cockroaches in the days after spraying which soured our experience of an otherwise nice place.

Verified reviewThe apartment is large and beautiful (exactly as pictured), located very close to Sliema promenade where you can find many restaurants and shops. It's also very close to bus stops that take you all over the island. Communication with the property was fast and efficient.
We didn't encounter any issues.
