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 reviewWe had a truly wonderful stay. The host was extremely attentive and always made sure we had everything we needed, which made us feel very welcome. The breakfast was fresh and delicious every morning, a perfect start to the day. The pool area was fantastic – clean, relaxing, and ideal for unwinding. Overall, the atmosphere was very peaceful, and we left feeling completely rested. We would definitely love to come back and can highly recommend this place to others.

Verified reviewThe farmhouse is really nice and our room was very spacious and cosy. The owner is super friendly, very responsive to any message we sent and always helped when needed. The farmhouse is really well kept and full of plants. Owner is very attentive and ensured everything was in order. There is even a TV with Netflix and everything included, which is a nice little touch. We were allowed with our dog and it was perfect. The breakfast was extremely good and he provided a wide variety of items. He was also kind enough to provide me with gluten free options. Definitely a place I will want to return to
The only reason I did not give this pretty accommodation a full 10/10 is because the bathtub did not have much water pressure. Nothing else was bad
Thank you so much for your lovely review and kind words Michael. We’re really glad you enjoyed your stay at Serene Escape Farmhouse and appreciated the space, the breakfast, and the extra touches like the plants and Netflix. We truly appreciate your feedback about the bathtub water pressure. We’re happy to let you know that we’re addressing this issue a water pump is being installed this week to improve the water pressure throughout the farmhouse. We hope to welcome you back again soon for an even better stay! Warm regards, Ivano & Liberty

Towels were not provided until later during the day but it was not a big deal!

Verified reviewIt was unique and very peaceful
The buildings aren’t designed for tall people, but this is standard in Malta and there isn’t very much can be done about it. But it still made for an excellent stay, I just had to be careful navigating around the room.
Thank you for your kind review, Becky. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere. We appreciate your understanding regarding the traditional Maltese architecture and hope to welcome you back in the future.

Verified reviewWe recently had the pleasure of staying at Serene Escape Farmhouse B&B in Għarb, Gozo, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the warm hospitality of the hosts made us feel right at home. Their genuine friendliness and attentiveness added a personal touch that enhanced our stay. The B&B itself is a beautifully restored 400-year-old farmhouse, retaining its original limestone architecture and vintage tiles, which exude rustic charm. The rooms were impeccably clean and well-organized, providing a comfortable and serene environment. One of the highlights was the breakfast. Each morning, we were treated to a delightful spread that was both varied and artfully presented, making it far from the usual fare Traveling with our pet, we were pleased to find that Serene Escape is pet-friendly, welcoming our furry companion with open arms. The outdoor spaces were perfect for leisurely strolls and relaxation. The tranquil swimming pool offered a refreshing retreat under the Mediterranean sun, and the location in the picturesque village of Għarb provided easy access to local attractions like the Ta’ Pinu Basilica and stunning coastal cliffs. Overall, Serene Escape Farmhouse B&B offers a perfect blend of historical charm, modern comfort, and exceptional hospitality. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a peaceful and authentic Gozitan experience.

Verified reviewThis is a real GEM in Gozo! Especially for people seeking a nice QUIET escape, away from all touristic hassle and bustle yet close to a shop, hiking trails and a few interesting beaches not far (4km). There is a small swimming pool which I loved. It is a small family run accomodatiom. There are just 3 rooms they let thus the swimming pool was practically for my exclusive use whenever I wanted to swim. Our room was basically swim-in (3 meters from the pool) and 2 other rooms are located on 1st floor. All property is filled up with beautiful real plants so it looks pristine, and there are even birds living in a tree! Very relaxing atmosphere. Easy access by public bus. 2 restaurants within 10 min walk with reasonable prices and super-yummy pizza! (you can also order a takeaway, plenty options). Breakfast is served in adjacent live-in room. In our room there was a fridge, a kettle and even some coffee and tea bags. I could order fresh strawberries from a nearby farm and the host Ivano picked them up for us when they were ready. You feel there really well looked after (yet not overwhelmed). Highly recommended!
That I didn't stay there longer! :)
Thank you for taking the time to share your lovely experience! It means a lot to us that you felt the calm and simplicity we aim to offer here. We’re glad you made the most of the pool, the garden, and the nearby gems. Knowing you felt looked after but still had your space is exactly what we hope every guest feels. We’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime, hopefully for an even longer stay next time! Warmest regards Ivano and Liberty
