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 KingdomMartha was so welcoming on our arrival. Give us all the information we needed regarding tours, restaurants and pubs. Our room was spotless with a beautiful view of the sea. Breakfast was really good plenty of cereals, bread, cheese and cold meats. There was as much tea and coffee as we wanted for breakfast and any time during the day. The location is great about a 12-15 minute walk into the town.

Comfortable, very reasonably priced self-catering 2-bed apartment at the back of the B&B. Suited 4 lads perfectly. The owner of the property is very hospitable. A little gem near The Knockranny Hotel, overlooking Croagh Patrick, and next to an off-road walking route 10minutes into town. Recommended. Westport is a fantastic town with great amenities.

NetherlandsShower pressure is pretty weak, though fine enough.
The view from our room was outstanding, and the place had a simple B&B charm to it. Breakfast included in room was good, and we got some nice recommendations from our host. Clearly a local business in a great spot overlooking the city, a highlight of our trip!

United StatesIf there are any faults, a Nespresso machine in the rooms would have been a nice touch for us early risers vs. instant coffee packets and kettle. The bath towels were on the thin side and were shredding at the edges. Mind also the slanted ceilings (at least in our Room #6); you need to mind your head
Located only a 15 minute walk into Westport city centre, Westport Heights sits on a hill in a completely quiet neighborhood with spectacular overlooks of the mountains and water. In my travel experience what makes or breaks a place is the character, personality and level of hospitality of the owners and/or staff. Owner Martha is beyond any high rating I could give in this review! If there were 100 possible points, she would get 101. She is truly an experience all by herself. Caring and committed to help in planning your sightseeing in the area and in all of County Mayo, Martha will guarantee you an exceptional experience. If you understand what a B&B is all about, you will love Westport Heights for comfort, hospitality and location. Luxury accommodations it isn't. But the value for the price is unbeatable. Martha lays out a plentiful cold breakfast buffet and is there every morning to make sure all is well. She greets you every single morning with a smile, good humor and many helpful tips.

IrelandThe room we got a low slanted ceiling. To be fair, this was clearly shown in the photos of the room. But probably isn’t ideal for someone tall as hit our heads a few times.
Nice hostess, continental breakfast, lovely view of the mountains. Towels were changed daily. Keep in mind that the bathroom is shared between 3 or 4 rooms, there’s an extra toilet downstairs. Bathroom was being cleaned regularly.

IrelandThings that first came to my mind- a cosy dining room with an amazing view. It was a great subject to start a conversation with other guests and share our thoughts and feelings about Westport / Mayo. The bed was so comfortable, I could rest with a cup of tea in my hand after a busy day of walking / hiking. Marta - the host - such a lovely person. I got so many helpful tips on how to enjoy my stay in Westport. It was great to meet a person so positive and enthusiastic about the area and open to help. A big plus - a beautiful route to town centre through forest / green space as the walking / cycling lane is very close.
