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...).

United KingdomEas Dun Lodge is situated in a beautiful part of Ireland, with lots of things to see and do. The accommodation itself is in a very quiet spot with great views of the countryside around. The room was very comfortable and clean, and the hosts were more than helpful, making sure everything was right for our stay, including getting some vegan options for breakfast.

We had a great stay, patsy and Anne are fabulous hosts. Breakfast was great, with freshly cooked eggs, toast or pancakes offered each day, as well as a great choice of continental breakfast sundries. The room was spotless, beds were very comfortable, we would highly recommend this place. You will probably need a car to travel around, donegal town is approx 15 mins drive, which is a great place to visit. But there are taxi companies available also. Would also recommend visiting some of the sites, silver strand beach, was amazing, but patsy will guide you to visit places based on what you want to do. The castle bar in town is a lovely place to eat in, and Harvey's point is worth a visit too, which is only 10 mins away.

United StatesSome of the roads in the area are "two way-one ways," so be prepared to nervously drive around sharp corners.
Eas Dun Lodge was a great stay in County Donegal. The hosts were welcoming and personable. The breakfast was very good. The rooms were spacious and accommodating.

My sister and I loved everything about Eas Dun Lodge. Ann and Patsy were amazing hosts and went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. We travelled extensively in Ireland and stayed in 10-12 B&Bs and Eas Dun Lodge rates way ahead of the others.

CanadaAn insect screen may be needed on the roof window to keep out critters when the bathroom light is on at night. The toilet has a "lazy flush". Each of us had to flush up to 4 times to empty the bowl. A couple of milk sachets would be nice in the refrigerator; I prefer milk in my coffee or tea to having them black.
Breakfast was great with lots of choice. One of us enjoyed eggs and the other especially liked the varieties of yogurt. Tea/coffee and kettle in the room were great, as was having a refrigerator. The bathroom was quite spacious; the Velux roof window in bathroom was great for ventilation and light. The shower worked really well. Tourist information is provided, as is a lovely sitting room on the main floor.
