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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

United KingdomIn a noisy city only the electrics were challenging, with whirring from the lift and echoes of other apartment's facilities/utilities, when occupied.
Modern minimalist conversion to a high standard within a vintage facade in this relatively quiet area above the Sliema ferry port. Nicely chosen apartment goods and products. Quality dining opportunities nearby, splendid views from Hastings Gardens and quite handy for transportation ie bus station, ferries, parking.

AustraliaNeeded a full length mirror and microwave. TV unable to get television channels.Why can’t they include tax in total accommodation rather than as you leave providing you have change. Something about the local area especially places to buy provisions.
We’ll set out and spacious. Comfortable bed, great shower, appreciated the coffee. Nice having own entrance. Generally quiet. Great location quiet yet close to the action.

United KingdomThere could be hooks in the bathroom for towels. That's all really!
Wonderful. Really responsive, warm hosts (didn't meet in person but were available over message service). Location is the clincher- 7 minute walk from the main area, the gate and not much further to the gardens. So many places to eat nearby. Car park directly opposite only a few steps away so was perfect for us as we hired a car (park in white spaces only, for the public). Clean apartment which felt really safe. Thank you!

United KingdomWithout a car, if you want to cook meals, Is-Suk Tal-Belt food market is the only nearby place to buy fresh food. It has a good range of fresh fruit & veg, dairy, deli and dry goods but you'd probably have to shop daily.
Great location. Easy walking distance to city centre but away from the noise. Lots of restaurants near by if you don't want to cook. Very comfortable apartment in a beautiful sandstone building with a lift, aircon and a washing machine. Late checkout on day of departure was appreciated as our flight didn't leave until late afternoon/early evening.

SwitzerlandUnfortunately the water pressure in the shower was way too low and the hot water lasts for only about 3 minutes. The water tank also makes a loud and funny noise every time one flushes the toilet.
Location was perfect and the furnishings and finishings were top notch! It was a really comfortable beautiful apartment.

United KingdomNothing to dislike.
This is an immaculate property with great attention to detail in the way that it has been presented, it is of high quality, spotlessly clean and has lots of little extras. It is also to be found in a great part of the city for getting around and seeing so many things and it is close to many wonderful eating places.

The apartment was very clean, comfortable and very well appointed. The hosts were extremely professional and provided very clear and useful information. They did everything possible for us to have a very enjoyable and relaxing stay in Valletta. I don’t think you can get a better location: very quiet, but minutes from the buss terminal, touristic attractions and restaurants. Team Trabuxu also helped us with booking the taxis from and to the airport. When we will come back to Valletta with our extended family, we will stay here again (hopefully we can find 2 available apartments).

United KingdomWe had a couple of power cuts for an hour or two overnight, but apart from the lights coming on when the power was restored, it didn't really bother us.
Location in Valletta is excellent, its a pretty small city so everything is easily walkable, but the apartment is in a good position, near the Hastings gardens, Its in a quiet area, but with plenty of restaurants and bars minutes away. Its also close to the Sliema ferry. The apartment is very well equipped, clean and very comfortable. We were on the second floor, with lift & stair access. Very good AC in the bedroom and living room/kitchen, good Wi-Fi, dish washer, washer/dryer, coffee maker- all the facilities!

United KingdomScaffolding erected 2nd day obscuring the sea view entirely, work started at 8am, noisy when erecting Scaffolding. Security is great but keys have a knack ( so don't get too drunk) These should not detract from a great spot. Top floor only one with two apartments but they aren't numbered or named?! We were told we could leave luggage with staff, but there are no staff on site and no reception.
There was a sea view as described, very spacious and well equipped with very good security. Within minutes of all Valletta, but quiet at night. We were on top floor (4th)

Our stay here was nothing short of perfect. I can wholeheartedly recommend this establishment to anyone seeking a truly exceptional hotel experience. It's a place where luxury meets impeccable cleanliness, and tasteful design blends seamlessly with top-notch service. We can't wait to return and relive the wonderful and relaxing stay we had here.
