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):
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.).

IrelandI find it too hot with a 15 tog duvet (I should remember to bring my travel one) and, with the window open, the constant barking of dogs from the nearby farm was annoying though I realise the owners can't be expected to do anything about it.
I liked that the property was easy to find, close to the town and easy access for the festival.

Josephine and Barry were wonderful hosts and looked after us so well. There was a beautiful view of Bantry bay from our room and the resident's comfy lounge. The breakfasts were brilliant. Plenty of choice for vegetarian and beautifully cooked.

IrelandSome more hangers in the wardrobe would be nice for longer stays as our
We got a specious room with a view over the Bantry bay. Very comfortable, spotlessly clean and charming. No words to express how friendly and welcoming and helpful our hosts were. Thank you both Josephine and Barry. All was wonderful - beautiful house and front garden, tasty breakfast and the most welcoming hosts. Free car park at the place, which was quite important for visitors. On the other hand, Bantry is a charming town and the perfect starting point to explore West Cork, the Sheep's Head loop (drive and walk to the lighthouse), as well as the ring of Beara. All these sights are just amazing, especially for nature-lovers - stunning views all around. We were extremely lucky with the weather, having perfect sunshine and blue skies most of the six days we spent there. Highly recommended to everyone, you will not be disappointed!!! The Eden Crest is now in our list of favorite places to stay at. One of the best we have ever been to, and we will be back for sure.

The hostess was absolutely lovely and engaging. She was very helpful in assisting us finding places to go and eat, including the local sites of interest. I have never been to this part of Ireland before and the friendliness of the people and sites to see were extremely enjoyable. The choice of food for breakfast was excellent and I really enjoyed my time there. I do intend to go back again.

United KingdomWe enjoyed our stay here with very welcoming hosts. This B&B is on a main through road, a little bit out of town, the place is set back from the road, so no road noise. Our room was of a good size & had a sea view, it was very clean & comfortable with good facilities & a lovely shower room. Breakfast was excellent. We would definitely recommend Edencrest.

The breakfast was the best we have had on our travels, lots of choice, fresh fruit and whatever variation of an Irish breakfast. Also enjoyed Josephine’s homemade scones as well continued our journey north. Would highly recommend.

IrelandThis is a beautiful comfortable bed and breakfast. We were made to feel welcome from the moment of our arrival. The room is just like if not better than a hotel room standard. We drive a fully electric car and we were able to charge our car at this bed and breakfast which was a wonderful added extra.

Warm greeting and host learnt and remembered our names. Everywhere immaculate. Room spacious with everything you needed available. USB plug adapter provided. Very large and comfortable bed. Toiletries provided. Wonderful breakfast with fresh fruit, cereals and cooked breakfast to follow if you wanted. Probably the best B&B we’ve ever stayed in over many years. Better than a lot of hotels.
