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...).

IrelandThis was a lovely 1 night stop over on our way to Killarney. We enjoyed a couple of leisurely drinks in the Cottage Bar next door where we found the barmaid so friendly. We enjoyed a chat with her. We definitely would stay again. Very good value for money.

United StatesThere needs to be better venting in the bathroom.
The thatched roof and stone cottage is what drew us to this location. It's a small town and quiet. The cottage was right next to a small pub that we took advantage of one night. Joan is very friendly and we enjoyed talking with her. Lots of hot water for the shower. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious.

Joan was a fantastic host, beautiful cottage with cosy and comfortable bedroom and large living / dining space. Added bonus was continental breakfast. Great location too- 40 minutes drive to Blarney Castle and about an hour to Cork City. Charleville town (10 mins away) has a great selection of places to eat- try The Four Winds- great meals.

DenmarkBathroom was cold.
Cute place. Excellent room. Spacious and private. A little cold in the bathroom with no heating and the ventilation was a little loud. Lovely lounge area and dining room. All situated right next to the local pub with modern authentic interior and charming welcoming local folk. Breakfast plentiful and varied. Note there are no shops or filling stations in this village. So come prepared. The landlady, Joan, is very forthcoming, informative, and helpful.

IrelandSome of the facilities/decor are dated but everything was working perfectly, low ceilings in the bedroom so not ideal for tall people.
The cottage itself is very nice and comfortable with some period furniture, handy that it has a little pub just beside it. Our host Joan was very nice and welcoming, great healthy breakfast and super comfortable bed. We had a great stay.

SwitzerlandThe only thing was that it was a little bit cold in the room, maybe because of the thatched roof keeping the heat out. But I do get cold quite quickly. Nonetheless, the duvet was big and there were enough extra blankets to use as well!
The host Joan is such a lovely lady! She made us feel at home in her cottage. The breakfast was lovely with Joan's homemade yogurt. The town was very quiet and in the countryside, which we liked as a base for exploring Cork. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom more than spacious!
