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 reviewIt is really an authentic townhouse where you can feel a little bit local. It's located in Senglea, a town where there are fewer tourists compared to Valletta or other neighbouring towns. The two bedrooms are equipped with good double beds and wardrobes. The kitchen area is semi-equipped but okay. The ferry to Valletta is a 15-minute walk, and a fairly well equipped small supermarket is also in this distance. At the end of the tiny peninsula where Senglea is situated there is a small rocky beach with a deep sea and breathtaking view of Valletta and all the ports around; it's a 5-min walk from the house. Our host Harold is very helpful and responsive. Thank you!
It's a townhouse in a densely populated area, so it's not very quiet: you can hear people talking in the street and in other houses, the sounds of cars and trucks. Also, we were there in the first part of August when there were a lot of fireworks even at daytime (typically in the morning and the late afternoon), but at night you can hear boom-boom up until 1 am (!). And yeah, it's a traditional stone-built house, so it's naturally damp, and it has a peculiar smell; but you must be aware of these things when booking this type of accommodation, right?

Verified reviewSelf catering with lots of restaurant options in the locality The location is excellent, including daily swimming at the Senglea point. There are always interesting things to see in the grand Harbour. They recently reinstalled the sea access ladders at the point
Quite a few steps to access the house from the seafront, but manageable

Verified reviewBeautifully renovated in the traditional Maltese style. The location was fantastic for our needs and the host very helpful.
There is a lot of humidity in the lower levels and the odor from it is very strong. I would recommend a door between the kitchen area and the basement or a humidifier. If it wasn’t for that it would’ve been perfect.

Verified reviewExcellent location on Isla - a very quiet residential area, nice neighborhood but at only 10 minutes from the busy Valletta by ferry or watertaxi. The location is excellent to discover Malta. We had the whole house, a beautifull 3 flloor old house with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Harold is an excellent host and he did help us with information and advice. It was a perfect staying.

Verified reviewThe accommodation is located in a nice small and quiet town opposite Valletta. If this suits you, you will be happy. If you are looking for variety in your evening life and are happy with a longer night transport, either by bus or perhaps the Bolt, you will again be satisfied. Wonderful accommodation in an old house that has been carefully renovated. All decently furnished and cosy. The owner is very easy to get along with, whether about arrival, departure or where to buy food.
Noise during air conditioning/heating operation. I felt that the bathroom suffered from using desalinated water. Both bedrooms are upstairs, but only one of them has a bathroom next to the room. The other bedroom has to go to the toilet and the downstairs bathroom.
