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.).

PolandSome issues in terms of organisation, missing towels, no new paper roll but it didn't happen everyday.
The employees are very helpful and nice, the bed is really comfortable, it's in a noisy area but you cannot hear much when sleeping.

PortugalSometimes the bathroom had a weird smell; The bathtub wasn’t very functional (the water splashed out to the floor since there was no glass or protection; Even though the location was good and close to a lot of spaces, it was also close to a lot of bars and discos, so the noise was a bit too much at night and until late hours. Good for the ones who look for the partie life, but not so good for the ones who are looking for some rest and sleppy time; There was no warning about having to pay a deposit.
Free and fresh water, excelent A/C, excelent staff, room was very aesthetic.

United KingdomI feel like when we arrived there was a lot of building work going on around the area early in the morning and would have liked to be communicated when booking. Also feel like the shower could be better as it need to be covered as it makes a lot of messy with a lot of water on the floor
The location of the property and the value for money and i’ve stayed here before so knew exactly what to expect. I will be back to stay here again!

CroatiaThe bathtub in the bathroom is very slippery and it is difficult to get into it without slipping. The water tap is at one side of the bathtub and the shampoo and shower gel containers are at the other side of the bathtub, which creates a problem when showering. There is no splash guard, so after showering the whole bathroom is full of water.
Very good hotel, clean and tidy rooms, friendly staff

United KingdomThe only downside is that there is a big construction site right outside the window, and they start construction work at 8 am so it is quite noisy and disturbing, but this is not the hotel’s fault.
Good location, close access to the centre of St Julian where all the restaurants and bars are, also walkable to the waterfront. Bed is very comfortable

PortugalThe only things that can be improved, is making sure that the right information is passed, because when I checked in, I was informed by the reception manager that they would pre-authorize 100€ in case of room damaging. That is totally fine, but I told her that I would need the docket from the machine on check out, with the pre aut reversed and she said that it's not possible and that the money would be in my account in 1 day, even though I told her that I have a debit card so that is not possible. Later I was informed by another receptionist that the pre auth can take until 21 days to be released in the card... Also I asked for an extra key because I left mine in the room and I was informed that only in the mornings they could give me an extra key.. and the receptionist had to leave reception alone to open my room door.
The room was very clean and with all the amenities needed. The breakfast was very good, especially on the second morning because I went earlier, so there was more variety. The owner was present in different departments and always had a smile on his face and was ready to greet the guests. Vino, was helpful and very friendly and Ana from reception is a must in the team, what a lovely receptionist, always ready to help. From the breakfast I have to mention Thomas and the sweet Sushmita. After checking out the room, I left my bag, and Ana also let me keep my things in the freezer. Thank you for everything guys, keep up with the good work!

CroatiaNoise. Constant noise. In the evening from the club/bar in the shopping center across the street which bounces right in that direction. The only positive thing about it is that they have a good selection of music (Italian hits and disco and ABBA nights...) so it wasn't that annoying. However, the noise that was very annoying was the one in the morning from the construction work that happens under the window. It would be good if the hotel would provide a notice or warn their guests in some way.
Nicely decorated rooms. The breakfast selection isn't huge, but there's a little bit of everything. Staff at breakfast is very friendly and helpful. There is free parking in the street. We enjoyed with our kids there.

SloveniaFridays and Saturdays can be lively, as this area is well known for its nightlife. However, it was only occasional moments when we could hear the street activity. It was not disturbing at all, as the windows are well soundproofed and block out the light effectively.
The location is on a beautiful, small, and quiet street, yet close to everything a tourist might need. Parking can be a challenge in Malta, but on our street, we always found an empty spot, which made the whole experience much easier. The staff was very friendly and helped us with everything we needed. Breakfast was rich, and they prepared eggs to our liking every day. A truly warm and heartfelt experience with the employees. We stayed on the second floor, and it was perfectly quiet, allowing us to sleep long and well, which is essential on a trip like this.

CyprusThe bathroom had a bathtub without a curtain or a bathtub door and as a result water was all over the place. Considering that the hotel is located very close to the nightlife, you could hear the music and noise from outside eapecially on Saturday night.
The room was very comfortable, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel was very good for those who want to experience the nightlife of Paceville . The breakfast was also very good since you had a choice of what you wanted them to prepare for you.
