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 reviewThe view is stunning as suggested - great view of the Grand harbour. Location was good - lots of restaurants nearby along the harbour as well as a landing point for the water taxi across to Valletta. Apartment nice and spacious, kitchen well equipped.
Really important for hosts to make clear that there are lots of steps up to the apartment - could be difficult with lots of heavy luggage. Shame that the balcony wasn't big enough to sit or eat out. There is a roof terrace. We loved the location but public transport is limited. We used taxis quite a lot to get round which was not expensive for three of us
Hi Richard, we're thrilled you enjoyed the stunning view of the Grand Harbour and found the location convenient with nearby restaurants and the water taxi to Valletta. Glad to hear the apartment met your expectations too! Regarding the stairs - for any guests who need help taking up their luggage please let our team know and our property area manager will come meet you to give you a helping hand :) [Zoe], [Zzzing].

Verified reviewApartment is in an amazing location. The balconies open up to harbour views and you can see Valletta and the upper Barrakka gardens There are outstanding restaurants just a 2 min walk from the property and the apartment is furnished beautifully in authentic Maltese style There were only 2 of us staying and we had practically our own suites as so much space. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need and the beds were so comfortable. You can use Bolt to get around or take the ferry to Valletta from Cospicua a 5 min walk or the traghetti from Vittoriosa The neighbourhood is stunning and away from built up Sliema and St Julian’s etc but you can travel to those places very easily
There are a lot of steps to the property and then 3 flights to the apartment which I thought was great for fitness but wouldn’t be suitable for less fit or elderly. Also there is no light on at night The tv and fridge didn’t work but small details and didn’t affect us. One of the bathroom sinks was blocked but there were so many sinks in the apartment! The location and views are priceless
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the breathtaking views and the authentic Maltese style of the apartment. It's great to know the location and amenities met your expectations, and we're already addressing the points you mentioned. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back soon!

Verified reviewView from the apartment was spectacular. The decor inside the apartment was also in a beautiful style.
The kitchen was very poorly equipped. Barely any glasses or mugs. Not suitable at all if you like to cook at home. This was very disappointing. TV want working when we arrive there but it was fixed soon after I complained.

Verified reviewLocation was exceptional, apartment was roomy and clean with plenty of crockery. Water was always hot and two en-suite bathrooms was a bonus
The air conditioning was not working correctly and I got no response to 2 messages regarding this. Although there was plenty of crockery there were very few glasses. Also helium balloons from previous residents were left behind

Verified reviewThe flat is very spacious with stunning harbour view. Kitchen is fully equipped for easy cooking. Bedrooms are very big too with en-suite bathrooms. We really like this location as it's close to the airport (less than 15min drive) and quiet for those who are not keen for late-night parties. Many nice resturaunts are located by the harbour. It's about 15min walk to the Ferry Dock, and easily connected to Valletta. We really like the fact that this area is not the centre for tourists nor loud party crowds. Yet so many beautiful spots to walk to, and you'll never get bored with.
The flat was not easy to walk to especially with suite cases or baby buggies. No lift in the building and no light from the entrance to the Level we stayed (it can be quite dark in the night). The flat is quite old. Some of the power sockets are not working. TV can't be connected to wifi either. The shower room in the main bedroom has got serious blockage. Everytime I took shower my feet were fully soaked in soapy water (it's like a mini-bathtub in there). I have complained to the management agency for 3 days and finally they sent someone over. Unfortunately the problem wasn't resolved still. Both sofas in the living room smells like old sweat. The owner should really consider getting the replacements.

Verified reviewThe location is great, perfectly clean and spacious. It was nice to not be in a hugely touristy area. Nice restaurants nearby. Beautiful view
Hopefully only 1 person in your group would want coffee or tea, as there was only 1 mug. I asked for another for our 5 day stay, and got a reply that they would look into it. No further help or correspondence. When I asked if we could leave luggage for a few extra hours, I was sent a link to a luggage storage place in Valletta, a 30 minute bus ride away. Also be aware, there are at least 50, and possibly many more stairs to negotiate between the streets to access the apartment and up the 2 flights in the building.
