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.).

IrelandEverything could have been better, but it's a property to which no attention has been paid. You get the bare-bones of a service, if you could call it a service at all. It's not in a great part of town, but if getting a cheap room is your objective, this will do that.
The hotel was a no-frills place. There were no visible staff and no attempt to brighten the decor; no investment in the property and none to make you feel welcome. It was basically a flop house and it was cheap. If saving money is your main reason, then this will do it; a room, a bed and a bathroom is what's on offer here, nothing more and nothing less.

United KingdomStrangely we didn’t actually meet or see any staff (apart from the cleaner who let us in) so never obtained the WiFi code, or were unable to ask for an extra cup for our room ( we only had one in a twin room ) Only half a toilet roll in the bathroom which could have caused us an issue (it didn’t though )
We managed to book in early as the rooms were ready, room was clean and comfortable Good location for the town and the football ground

United KingdomThe noise from other guests consisting of loud telephone conversations doors slamming and loud conversations in the hall llate at night and very early in the morning with little or no consideration for others. It's true that other guests can't be gagged however they can be politely requested to keep any noise to a minimum and be nice. Also there wash no teaspoon with the hot drink facilities and a tear in the bedsheet.
Everything was clean and tidy and all facilities were available and functional.

United KingdomNo member of staff on site upon arrival, to ask about checking-in or parking arrangements. Facilities dated / missing (no bathroom mirror, chair very worn etc.). We were woken at 8:50 by staff hammering and drilling, which we had not been warned about when checking-in. We then had a knock on our door at 9:20, 'just confirming that we were checking-out today'. I am not sure why this was necessary.
Easy access and reasonable sized room.

United KingdomPersonally I believed it was a little “run down”. Room lights only had one working bulb out of the 3 on the ceiling, spots of black mould in the shower, and marks on the wall/bedside unit where something has been dropped and not wiped off.
Situated not very far from town centre, quick and easy check-in.
