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, modern and very specious apartment ( pictures don't give it justice. It was a lovely surprise and wow factor when we walked in). Dip pool is a lovely addition. Separate bathrooms are very convenient for the family. Each room has a fitted A/C which is absolutely necessary in hot summer days in Malta. The apartment contains everything that you could wish for. Very well thought through. Very convenient location as well. Now the most important part for everyone who likes to organize holidays by yourself instead of all inclusive resorts. Our host Karl went above and beyond. Very professional approach to the business from day one. Fantastic communication, very responsive to messages and informative. Customer focused. We can't thank Karl enough. I wish that all businesses will have the same attitudes towards their clients. I wish you all the best Karl as you truly deserve it. Please don't hesitate to book this apartment as it is excellent value for money and you won't regret it.
Absolutely nothing. Loved every moment spent at the apartment

Verified reviewI really enjoyed my stay at the apartment! It was very clean, cozy, and had everything I needed. The pool was a real highlight , perfect for a quick refresh during the hot daytime. The location is great as well. It’s about a 10-minute walk to Balluta Bay Beach, which is the nearest sandy beach. There's also a supermarket just around the corner (less than 2 minutes away), and several nice restaurants within walking distance. I’d definitely come back and can warmly recommend the place!

Verified reviewKarl the host was wonderful. Gave a brilliant walkthrough of the property and surrounding area and answered any questions we had. His recommendations for places to eat and things to see was greatly appreciated too. The property was pristine and kept to a very high standard. Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed for our stay and we didn't need for anything the entire time with regards supplies and equiptment. The location of the property was very central and only a few hundred metres to restaurants, shops, bars and swimming locations. Would certainly stay again if visiting Malta.

Verified reviewNice accomodation very close to Balluta bay within walking distance to St. Julian's. Flat was fully equipped with everything we needed for our stay. It has a small and nice jacuzzi on the balkon for cooling down after beeing outside. It seems, that pools are not very common in Malto so this is definitive a small highlight! After we were able to check in ourselves, host Karl received us a little later and explained the apartment and the area to us. He responded very quickly to any questions and always tried to support our stay as much as possible. Thank you very much!
Enelmalta is not in control of its power grid and has shut off the power at times. Fortunately, host Karl tried to support us in the best possible way.

Verified reviewWe had a wonderful stay at this beautiful house! We and our two kids (1,5 and 3 years old) really loved the property. It's a very nice, clean, new house, with all the things you could possibly need (washing machine, coffee maker, etc). We also really loved the heated pool, which was perfect to swim in even in February. The host is super kind en friendly, and was allways available when we had questions. He gave us a lot of good tips for trips and restaurants. We would 100% recommend this place, and are definitely coming back!

Verified reviewWhat was not to like. Great house everything you could need. This is the best apartment I have stayed in whilst in Malta. Close to shops, beach, buses and Bolt for cabs and Wolt for shopping. Lovely plunge pool to chill out in when back from days out.
The hill up from Balluta Bay could be challenging if you have mobility issues. But nothing wrong with anything else
