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.).

Polandin the economy class, a view of the adjacent building wall. A very small balcony that we didn't use. We did not like the coffee from the espresso machine - a matter of taste.
for breakfast there were fruit, salad, meats, eggs all fresh.

SloveniaFilthy destination in general, disappointed...trash in front of the hotel, dogs poop outside the gate of the hotel, due to windy days was getting all the dust and trash to the terrace of the hotel, cos there's no gate that can provide protection
Location...I don't know, but it was so difficult to find a parking place, mission impossible almost, and it is not the full season yet

Czech RepublicChoosing this hotel was a huge mistake !!! The first evening nothing worked, light in the bathroom or air conditioning, the room was terrible. I tried to arrange a room change, but it is said that the hotel is completely full (which was not true). The light in the bathroom was repaired the next day, but otherwise nothing else changed - the equipment dilapidated, the incredible stench in the room, the insects in the bathroom, the kitchen counter disgusting, the dirt in the closet that we didn't even dare to put things there. In addition, the room was on the ground floor, we did not fit on the balcony and the balcony was right on the sidewalk, whoever walked into the hotel as if it passed through our room. The smell in the bathroom, mold all over the walls, and water from higher floors flowed into the skylight outside the window. Along with the garbage there was, the smell was unbearable. Throughout the stay, I asked them to clean our room, the lady at the reception told me that she would clean every 3 days, but with us until the 3rd emergency they changed towels once and stopped. Garbage removal or floor wiping did not take place at all. The hotel's access was really zero, I asked for the shortcomings to be rectified in person at the reception 3 times, I wrote accommodation 3 from the right to Booking, but nothing happened at all, we were all ignored. If we knew what awaited us at the hotel, we would NEVER go there, believe me. Honeymoon, when all the inhabitants of the hotel walk through your room and you can't even close the windows due to the stench, nobody really wants that. This was a holiday of horror. I would definitely NOT recommend anyone to go to this hotel at all. Vybrat si tento hotel byl obrovský omyl !!! Smrad, rozpadlé vybavení, v koupelně plíseň. Snažila jsem se domluvit výměnu pokoje, ale prý je hotel zcela plný (což ale nebyla pravda). Uklízí prý každý 3. den, ale nám až po 3 urgenci pouze vyměnili ručníky.

GreeceWe had few ants on the floor, but it is not a biggie. We were just wondering how they managed to get to the 5th floor
For the price we paid, it was really the best standard, that you can get. Also, the personnel is very helpful and kind. We got a view directly to the sea and we had a small kitchen, a private bathroom included in our room.

United KingdomThe apartment needs an overhaul. The built in hob didn't work & we had to use a portable one. There were mattresses and broken airers and furniture on the terrace, these certainly should have been taken away. The curtains had seen better days ! But it's been a rough couple of years for hotels, so hard to upgrade with no income. I had booked it partly because it has a restaurant advertised but this was now closed. In fairness many places seemed not to have survived the pandemic on Malta, and this was a good place, nothing terrible and a good price.
Fantastic building and plenty of space in the penthouse we had. The location is away from the main area of St Pauls, but within walking distance. There are shops within a few meters of the complex and we recommend the butchers "The meat up" which was a short distance away. There is a lift to the Penthouse thankfully ! There were a lot of reviews saying the Wifi was no good, we had no problems and were running TV off it, it buffered occasionally. As it is a login not directly to a router you might want to use a VPN. Staff were lovely.

IrelandThe sofas seem dirty/stained. The bed cover blaket same. Pillows are very old (but pillowcase and sheets/linen clean and soft.). Towels old (but clean and material works to soak up water, not synthetic.) Wardrobe inside has old smell. Sofa matresses very thin only maybe somehow okay for people who weight less than 60kg. The lift when its called makes a sudden loud voice if you sleep in livingroom can scare you or wake you up.The whole apartman has an outdated mixed up interior. The balcony did not have the nice vibe like on photo (Block A room 602 Penthouse.) because plants are dryed out/dead. And everything was dusty on balcony. Not much comfort (on sofa)or beauty in interior, but you can make it work if you just need a cheaper place to spend nights.We where there end of April 2022.
The price is very good for Penthouse.The location is good. People at reception very nice. Coffee place 2 min. away. Small Pub 3 min. away. Big local Grocery shop half min. away. Cafe del mar 5 euro bolt drive away.The size of the room is good and plenty of wardrobe. 2 sofas and 2 balcony for BlockA,room 602 Penthouse. View from big balcony is quite nice. Kitchen with microwave. Always hot water for shower. Heater present if needed. Extra blankets and pillows there. Cleaning service willing to give extra towel.

United KingdomNothing really for the price... I suppose the TV had a very limited range of channels, I could only watch Sky News. Slightly damp smell in the studio this time but it was on the ground floor with a swimming pool opposite so not surprising.
This was my second stay here. The studios are a good size, very reasonably priced, with all the facilities needed for self-catering, plus balconies. Shops and bus stops are convenient, with a view of the sea directly outside.
