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.).

IrelandIf the bedroom door is open to the Turquoise room, people from outside can see directly in, as the front door is glass. I would like if the second door closed for privacy. Also there were some men that were very creepy and inappropriate staying in the room with us and there was no night security to tell them about it, or make us feel safer returning home as female travellers.
Clean, everything works, comfortable beds, curtains around beds, USB ports, nice aircon, kitchen.

AustraliaThe room is up 5 flights of stairs which was tricky with a broken toe but manageable. Not really a hostel where you meet and greet other backpackers as there isn't really a social space for that except the bar next door but for the price it's great.
Great location. The double beds were fantastic. The staff were super helpful and accommodating and the aircon worked well.

FinlandWhen I arrived, I did notice a cockroach, which wasn’t a great first impression. Also, there was no air conditioning, and the window opened directly onto the street right by the beds, which made it a bit noisy and less private. The space felt a little crowded and slightly unclean, but not to the point that it really disrupted the stay — just something to be aware of.
The location was excellent and very easy to access, which made getting around super convenient. I also really appreciated the option for late check-in — it made my arrival stress-free. The beds itself was modern and well-maintained, and I especially liked the design of the bunk beds with privacy curtains — a great touch for added comfort!

SloveniaLimited bathrooms - one in the room, another one in the hallway, but it has one shower and one toilet. The showe could be better, but they cleaned it every day, so thats a plus! They chargers next to your bed are only usb type A, and it charges very very slowly.
The location is perfect. The staff is nice, I had an option to check in early. New furniture, nice lockers, you get free towels. Hot water in the shower, AC in the room. Very close to the bus station, store, beach, McDonalds.

CroatiaThere are only 2 things that should be improved upon: 1. Bathroom door was a bit rickety so people would always have trouble sliding it. 2. While the bar/common room is great, I see a potential safety issue as it has its own separate entrance to the street with nothing except the eyes of the bartender preventing any potential street guest from climbing the stairs to the rooms. If there is one thing I would recommend, it is to have a way to close the stairway to the rooms for all except the guests.
Excellent value for money, lovely staff, great position right at St. Julian's bay. The beds were comfy, with the curtains giving a very good degree of privacy even with 6 people in the room. Lockers were also decently sized, allowing for a large suitcase. The location is especially a great strength because you have a few restaurants (including McDonald's) nearby, a grocery store, a self ashing machine parlor and a bus stop, allowing you to reach Valletta with with a 30 minute ride. Right next door is also a cafe, where you can watch sporting events on a big screen. Front door lock combination is frequently changed for safety. Toilet paper and everything bathroom related is changed and restocked frequently. They also have a newly made common room/bar which has a good size and great prices for drinks (Aperol was only 2€ for example) but it may take a bit of time for it to get traction with guests. If I ever come back to Malta, I definitely intend to book again!
