Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

GreeceThe hostess was very kind and helpful, and the room, although small, was very clean. The only problem was the bathroom tap. The sink was very small, the pressure of the water was high, and it was spraying everywhere.

United KingdomMe and my mum had such a great experience at the property. Staff was extremely friendly and they have many facilities available for the guests such as a dinning room with a selection of cereals, teas and coffee available to have for breakfast included. The room was very lovely and clean and the property was very easy to find and pretty straightforward. Overall a wonderful experience.We will definitely stay here again!

SpainYou can't control the guests of the house, in our stay we find that some of the guests were a little bit dirty. I understand that you can't control this continously. And it's not the host guilt, as they try to maintain all in order, and they made it, you will not find the dirt more than a day as they put remedy. Don't blame the owners, blame the other guests.
The location is perfect. Mary the host is wonderful, never a host was so worried about our stay, also his husband was wonderful. The house was perfectly equipped and all you need probably you will find there. To reach dublin is easy, a bus stop is about 20 meters from the house. If you go with a car there is plenty of space to park and dublin is 10 min away. The beds are very comfortable and the house maintain a good temperature

CanadaMy stay was longer (10 days) and it might have been nice to have more access to the kitchen. Thankfully I had family in the city where I could use the kitchen.
My room was incredibly clean and I appreciated that they serviced the room every day to ensure you had what you needed. The location was great and it was so easy to catch buses into the city.

United StatesNo problems at all. It was a pleasure to stay here.
The room was conveniently close to the airport and also within easy reach of the city. It was surprisingly quiet despite closeness to a major route to downtown. Most of all the hostess was welcoming and helpful in every way. We were able to use the dining room and kitchen for breakfast and light lunches. The house and room were always warm and cozy. Hope to stay again, next time in Dublin.
