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 KingdomThe parking on Douglas Promenade is limited to 2 hours during the day else it is a car park, which is a 10 minute walk. The apartment is showing it's age and could do with some TLC.
The apartment was clean, spacious and comfortable. The location was superb. To have a view of the beach, sea and Tower of Refuge (which is lit at night) was perfect. Kitchen had everything necessary, beds were all made, en-suite and bathroom were stocked as expected and I felt very much at home here.

CanadaThe dining chairs were worn, and one of the twin beds was a little unstable. But wouldn’t be enough for us not to stay there again. Staff were very helpful and very honest!
The view!! The 2 bed + 2 bath was very convenient for 4 of us and the kitchen was well appointed.

United KingdomFor those with mobility problems make sure that you inform the hosts when booking to get one of the lower apartments. As a reasonably fit set of visitors the climb to the top floor (50 steps) was OK but if you have mobility problems the climb could prove taxing or even impossible.
Met by the host who handed over the keys, explained the parking arrangements and told us of the local shops and restaurant. The apartment had every thing in the kitchen that a family could need. The presence of a PS4, whilst not used during our stay, could prove invaluable for children on a wet day!

United KingdomParking near the apartment while free, worked on a two hour disc system, between hours of 8.00am to 6.00pm, so parking overnight was fine but meant you had to drive away by 10.00am and finding a spot when you returned was sometimes difficult as very busy. Same system worked all over the Island so never paid for parking.
The apartment had every amenity and every electrical appliance you could require. A washer/dryer meant I returned home with a suitcase of clean clothes. The large bay window gave an excellent sea view and looked down on the promenade with its perfectly maintained floral gardens.

IrelandThe parking space situation in which you had move your after two hours from 8am to 6pm Monday to Saturday. The parking issue needs to be explained more clearly to guests before they come to the property so they will know what to expect. Some of the electrical equipment are old and needs upgrades.

United KingdomThe parking situation is dire, though not the fault of the hosts. You'll need a parking disc (we had to get one from the post office) which only allows for 2 hours free parking. For overnight parking the disc has to be set after 6pm to 8am, meaning that you'll have to free the space by 10am. You cannot just reset the disc. We stayed Weds-Sat and it was rare to see a free parking space, especially close-by. Ended up having to use Chester Street car park on two occasions.
Our apartment was spacious and clean with a good view of the sea. The facilities were good and of course the apt is ideally located for the town itself and the ferry port.
