Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Very friendly, nice spacious room with the use of guest living room/dining room with 24/7 tea, coffee and cookies. Fussball table and TV in communal space. Nice breakfast set up for us in the dining area with hard-boiled eggs, yogurts, breads, cereals, milk and juice. Microwave and toaster were available. We were able to get on the bus right across the street to go into Galway.

Somewhere to store our toothbrushes/paste in the bathroom and perhaps a towel rail to allow the towels to dry out after showering. Other than that we were very well catered for and welcomed.
Patrick very kindly bought in gluten free breakfast cereals, bread and cakes to ensure I had a safe breakfast each morning which was very much appreciated.

The shower curtain ended a few inches from the floor so the floor got wet. It was a bit slippy when I got out.
The owner was very friendly, courteous and professional. The room was spotless. The bed was the most comfortable bed I slept on through my entire trip. The breakfast was very tasty and more than generous.

This is no reflection on our stay or Pat, but we know it's resolvable. Unfortunately, I was unable to reach the hangers inside the wardrobe, etc, for my clothes. I'm lucky my partner is tall. If I had come away with my sister which I do a lot we both would have had a problem not able to hang our clothes. It would be nice to have a 2nd microwave in the dining area. The other couple were cooking in the microwave for the full duration of our breakfast and longer. It meant we couldn't heat the milk for our breakfast. It would be nice to have a recycling bin in the dining area as we left our stuff for Pat to get rid of. He has enough to do without these extra bits, and we apologise for leaving stuff for him. We were travelling back to Galway by bus. Otherwise, we would have taken it with us.
Pat was a very caring host, making sure everything was OK for us. He gave us plenty of information which we liked. Nothing was too much for him. He was there to greet us, which was fabulous. Our room was very cosy and warm. Pat explained how the heating system worked, so there was never any fear we would be cold. The bed was really comfortable and the bedlinen was absolutely spotless. The Christmas atmosphere throughout the house was wonderful and a credit to Mary. The house was extremely easy to find, and it was like being home away from home.

Bit awkward to find initially as on a corner but once you've got it you're fine.
Patrick was a great host who went out of his way to meet and great us and explain the features of his B&B and breakfast process. Breakfast was simple and sufficient for our needs. Location was out of city a few minutes which was not too far and close to Pádracins seafood restaurant he recommended nearby that served excellent food and very hospitable. Highly recommend it.

We found the bed a bit soft for us, but that is a personal preference. An option for a full breakfast not just the continental with hard boiled eggs would be good. Need a front door mat to wipe your shoes. Felt a bit awkward leaving damp shoe prints on their nice shiny floor tiles.
Stayed here for 1 night in September whilst on our roadtrip holiday from Australia. Friendly host Patrick greeted us and showed us around and to our room. The house was very clean and tidy, our room older style and comfortable with plenty of space. The TV worked ok as did the wifi and the heating. The location was reasonable with off street parking in front of the house available for guests and about a 15min drive in moderate traffic to go into Galway city centre.
