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 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):
- 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.).

Orientation on the television, tv remote were quite advance, i struggled to look for channels and ended up using my own data to connect to most of the channels displayed and of which some were hard to get to.
The setting of the room was quite well. cleanliness of the bathroom was good.

Thank you Sebastian for the great weekend. My love and me enjoyed our stay so very much. The fact that you went out of your way to help us when we were stuck and had no one to help us. Your bnb was so beautiful, clean and highly recommendable to all. The location is so great, 2 min walk to the beach. Close to every shop that one can think of. Thank you very much once again for everything

Very comfortable room, neat ensuite bathroom, piping hot water. Fridge and microwave were a welcome bonus. Plates and knives and forks were also included, which came in very handy for supper. Secure off street parking set my mind at ease. Sebastian and Tony are superb hosts and made me feel right at home! Definitely will return!!!

Unfortunately, we didn't have hot water for a shower, but an arrangement was made for us to use another bathroom in a different unit that had a gas geyser.
The bathroom was amazing. Bed comfortable, property very close to the beach. Sebastian kept in contact with us long before we got to the accommodation

There is absolutely nothing that we did not like.
Sebastian's Hosting skills is Phenomenal. We were messaged hours before arrival with a Pin, Wifi codes and well wishes for a safe trip. Come on Really??? We have stayed in numerous places which span over different cities but never once have we ever met anyone like this wonderful Gem of a Host. The travel was far, and exhausting being an understatement but upon arrival Sebastian was waiting outside for us in the heat to welcome come us. Sebastian generously showed us our accommodations, gave us a run down of the apartments and rooms and had welcome Drinks and Choccies for us. We enquired about settling payment and this Host my God , he was not even interested in that saying not to worrying, just settle in, relax and we can sort out the following day. I really am speechless as usually payment is taken in advance prior to arrival our upon arrival. Needless to say he did not leave it there, he enquired about our reason for stay and our trip, and the traffic, to be honest i was totally blown away as never once have we ever received such a warm and sincere welcome. Further to that, during our stay he would often wait outside and took every opportunity to advise us on places to eat and enquire about our stay. Upon departure he sent us off with such warm well wishes for a safe trip back and even asked if we could advise once safely arrived.......... Who does that? ........ Only family......... and that exactly how we related to us as Family. This Host is simply amazing. Thank you so much Sebastian and promise all future visits to Gonubie, you will have our support as we know we will be well taken care off. You are an amazing Host and an Amazing, kind and compassionate Human Being, God Bless you with Every Success in Life
