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 reviewWe were self-catering with a good supermarket just a short walk from the apartment. The centre of Victoria was also just a short walk away.
Parking wasn’t easy as the apartment is on a busy residential street where the home owners have their own parking spaces, but we managed without any major problems. The apartment was smaller than expected and there were men working on the roof directly outside of our shower room on two of the days we were there, which we were not informed about.

There was a problem with the aircondirioner which did not work properly. As we stayed there in december we needed it to heat the apartment. The owner provided us with an elecrtic heater so in the end everything was ok.

Verified reviewGood location of the apartment, close to the restaurants. Washing machine available at the apartment. Nice terrace, though didn't use it much due to overall heat. Apartment was clean.
During my trip to Malta I stayed at 3x different places. This was the only one to have a paid AC, beware of that. Kitchen appliances looked old, there was even no proper knife to cut the bread. Old TV (no Netflix etc.) which isn't a big deal, but if you would like to watch something in the evening, there's not a big choice of programs.

Verified reviewThe place was clean
You had to enter at 3.00 and on the day of departure at 9..40 owner sent a message to remind that departure was anytime before 11.00 like they wanted to get rid of us as early as possible. A lot of stairs and AC was with coins would have preffered to pay more than having to put coins all the time in the meter

Verified reviewPenthouse was very clean, organised, great view, and excellent location.
There are 3 floors and no lift, bed not so comfortable, and a suggestion to put a curtain in between the kitchen and bedroo. so that guests can turn on one ac not two (since it comes at an extra pay) in order to keep the penthouse cool.

Verified reviewNot far from Victoria Town
Not a lot of parking outside Air con isn’t free, on a meter. Pictures looked different to actual room in my opinion It’s ok but be prepared to have to spend money for air con, and a lot of noise from the neighbours seemed to be normal

Verified reviewThe apartment is perfect for a couple. It's spacious enough, there is plenty of storage for your items and equipped with anything you might need during your stay. There is a great view on the terrace and plastic chairs and table available so you can enjoy a snack or dinner outside.

Verified reviewThe location was perfect, as it is quiet but just a few minutes away from the centre of Rabat. Parking was not a problem also, which made the experience better.
The only thing we did not like was the bed, which was uncomfortable.

Verified reviewSpacious, modern, well-equipped apartment on the top floor with a large terrace, very close to the center, bus station, grocery store. Helpful hosts - when the TV could not be turned on - the host immediately came and helped. They also checked whether all the lights were on and replaced the ones that didn't work (there are many of them - each corner can be lit separately), even though I didn't ask. Gave an extra adapter. The apartment has everything you might need for life - a cozy kitchen area with a large refrigerator, microwave, oven and dishes. We found salt, spices, tea bags. We missed a little bit of sugar...
Nothing bad. Only the terrace could have a bigger table - there is enough space for two to drink coffee, but not much to eat.
