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.).

IrelandThe lighting in the room was a bit too dim. Okay for getting ready for bed but I had reading to do and light was not great for studying. Walls are a bit thin between rooms but all guests were very respectful of each other so I got a good night's sleep.
10 minutes drive to Athlone IT (Technological University of Shannon) when you take the N6 motorway. Owners very friendly and helpful. House was nice and warm. Lovely comfy bed. I had a room facing to the rear of the house so no traffic sound but not a lot of traffic on the main road anyway. Parking on-site. Nice tables and chairs out the front of the house which got the evening sun in summertime. Loved hearing the birds singing and I saw a heron on the riverbank beside the house!

United KingdomOK, if I'm being really (really) picky and looking for something, then I would say that a better quality of toilet tissue would be our personal choice. But, hey, that's being really picky - everything was excellent and we really enjoyed our stay.
Sean and Carmel were incredible hosts, and Sean even ran us into Athlone both nights we were there, lovely people. The room was exceptionally clean and well decorated, and the bed was a pleasure to sleep in. Did we have Irish breakfasts? Of course we did, and they were excellent, well cooked and plenty of choice. Definitely recommended, and definitely on our "we'll go there again" list.

IrelandI cannot fault anything with the property or the hosts. If I could I would give the overall score 20 out of 10!
The hosts went above and beyond. Their hospitality was exceptional. The location was perfect, easy to find and good parking. WIFI was free and quick! The rooms are large and the cleanliness was faultless through out the property. It's one of the best B&B I have stayed in Ireland and I have stayed in quite a few!
