How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewBru Chlann Lir is in a beautiful majestic location. Our rooms were lovely. They were extremely clean, the beds comfortable and the shower was great. We were made to feel so welcome by Josephine throughout our stay. She has a wealth of knowledge about the local area with great advice on the things not to be missed. The breakfast each morning was delicious, with plenty of choice and great quality food. We recommend the boat trip to the inishkea islands. It was one of the highlights of our trip. We will definitely do a return trip.

Verified reviewThis bed and breakfast has a very old-fashioned feel, reminiscent of a time when travelers didn't just stay in some random hotel as strangers, but when they were welcomed into someone's personal home as valued guests. It felt more like staying in a friend's guest bedroom than an inn. The whole vibe was very cozy and intimate. One afternoon, we came back from a trip to a nearby museum, and the host let us know there was a baby sleeping in the room next to ours. We settled quietly in to watch a movie until the baby awoke. Some guests might not like having to consider other guests during their stay, but that's what chain hotels are for. We loved the overall feeling of a family home. This is 100% a place to bring kids and family. That said, my partner and I don't have kids, and we felt just as catered to. Our bedroom was immaculate, the bed and linens were extremely comfortable, the bathroom was perfectly clean and well-stocked. Josephine was SUCH an indulgent host! We felt completely looked after. On our first morning there, we overslept a bit, and she even knocked on our door to ask if we were coming to breakfast, because she didn't want us to miss out. We were so grateful, because the breakfast was incredible! There were plenty of self-serve options, like yogurt and toast. But she also made us our own breakfast from a menu. I chose a classic Irish breakfast, and my partner chose pancakes. Both were DELICIOUS. My partner and I went to the Mullet peninsula to get away for a few days. We were exhausted from traveling and wanted to stay somewhere off the beaten path. We found just that, along with spectacular views on the drive to the peninsula. Co. Mayo is beautiful. There is also a historic lighthouse on the peninsula, as well as a visitor's center with fabulous exhibits on the natural and cultural history of the region. I cannot wait to go back and stay here again!
There aren't a lot of food options in the area, but it's rural, so that's to be expected! There's a lovely hotel restaurant in Bellmullet with live music, and a great cafe at the visitor's center.

Verified reviewI loved the place and our hosts were very kind and pleasant. My kids were thrilled with the views around. The breakfast had a wide range of options and we even helped saving a dolphin from a close beach 😃
It's a very remote area so there's not much to do with the kids and it's everything very far away.
