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.).

A fabulous stay at Ballea Farmhouse with my family & parents. Everything you need home to home. Beautiful scenic surroundings. My little girl loved the donkeys. We had a car but Ubers easily accessible to get into cork centre. Thank you we will love to return x

AustraliaThere was a coffee pod machine with no pods and no regular tea was provided. There was minimal toilet paper. The home is not close to shops so these things were disappointing.
The house is beautiful and comfortable in a stunning location. The beds are comfortable, great heating and a kitchen well equipped for cooking.

United StatesOne thing to be aware of is that when you get closer to the house, the road is narrow and only one car can drive through so you need to be careful in this area. Luckily there aren’t many houses and the few cars we did pass seemed to be people that lived in the area and they knew where to pull over so we could pass through.
We had a wonderful stay. The house was spacious and the beds were comfortable. The owner was very responsive and we loved the fresh flowers and muffins that were on the table when we arrived. It was also nice to see the donkeys through the kitchen window as I drank my coffee in the morning and again when we went outside to the back of the house. The three bathrooms were also a big plus and the Smart TV in the living room was appreciated by my kids. I would stay here again.

New ZealandWe loved the location but it is a bit of a way out of Cork if you are looking to be close to Cork- No problem with a car - Uber about €30
Beautiful peaceful rural setting- comfortable home with everything you need - we were three adult couples but It would also be a great country break for Families with children. Marjorie was a friendly, responsive and flexible host
