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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 walls were thin and we were woken up by noise in the morning.
Location was perfect - close to bus stops and walkable distance from the city. We had no issues with check in/check out and the availability of parking was very helpful. Beds were very comfortable and the facilities were well maintained. It was an ideal spot for a one night stay with friends.

United StatesWe didn’t have access to the dining area after breakfast and rules said no outside food could be brought in, so takeout was not an eating option. Also, the staff was not actively giving us pointers about the area, something we have appreciated greatly when staying at other B&Bs.
Location was great! It was clean and pretty.

United StatesRoom was good but very small and noise from people walking around on floor above was very annoying especially in the middle of the night. Also we were told we could not hang any washing in the bathroom, even underwear. Fortunately there is a good laundromat in Galway.
Location and breakfast were great. Room and common areas were very clean and pleasant.

Great location with a quick walk to town. Breakfast in the morning was fabulous as was the lovely ladies who worked there. My room was small but had a gorgeous garden outlook which made it feel more spacious.

United StatesBreakfast was a continental (cold cereal) breakfast for 10 Euro, so it was more economical to get a full breakfast at a cafe or restaurant nearby. Also, on-site parking is not guaranteed although that was indicated in the listing. It was not an issue for me at the time although it could be for other guests in the future.
The location was convenient to walk into town and the staff were very nice. The room was as expected, a simple bedroom with private bathroom.

AustraliaThe floors are very creaky so you hear people walking around in their rooms, enough to wake you up. Walls quite thin too, could hear somebody snoring in another room. Can’t be helped of course is an older house, just one those booking should be aware of.
Breakfast was great value for money, 10 euro per morning and there was a great selection on offer. The staff were EXCEPTIONAL. Very lovely people, so welcoming and kind. Bed was very comfy and my room was cleaned which was a little bonus I didn’t expect. Only a short walk to main Galway, 10mins max.

United StatesThe WiFi did not reach fully into our room. The only way we could get WiFi was if we stood right next to the door. This was a little frustrating since we didn’t have much data because we were coming from outside of Ireland, but we are grateful we were able to find some at least.
We booked the budget room, which was obviously a small room but we managed for two nights perfectly fine. The house was cute and the location was great to walk to the touristy areas.

United StatesGreat spot for a couple of nights. Quick walk to city Centre. Lots of food and restaurants within a couple minute walk. Bus station is close. Little noisy in the morning if you’re on the first floor because of the optional breakfast being so close to the rooms. Overall 9/10.

ItalyI booked the single room with an external bathroom, but I didn't like the fact that you don't get a key to the private bathroom, so actually somebody else could use it. I was told that all other rooms have private bathrooms, but still, one would feel better having the key to your own bathroom. Also, the room has a tiny window and no desk or chair. I have to ask for a chair from the dining room and use a drawer as a desk. To avoid disappointments, I suggest including pictures of the room so at least one knows what to expect.
The B&B is nice and well located. Quiet place to stay.
