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 reviewClose to town. Relaxing jacuzzi outside with gorgeous view. Also a sauna if you choose to use that. Comfortable and quiet room. Host is helpful and friendly. Good parking.

Verified reviewVery comfortable and quiet, no fuss sort of experience. Very modern and spacious building and facilities. I particularly liked the extra touches like proper coffee and a French Press for the morning - wasn’t expecting that! They make many notes of being 2km out of town, so I suspect there have been complaints - but it’s really not that far, no issue even though I was travelling on foot.

There isn’t a common space — sleeping arrangements and bathroom only.

Verified reviewThe bed was comfortable, the room was lovely, clean and warm and the house was quiet. The location was wonderful, with scenic views to the front of the property overlooking water and mountains.
The amount of instructions that I received from the property via messaging on Booking.com, and the abrupt tone of the messaging made me feel anxious about my arrival and what I would be met with. I was very pleasantly surprised by how nice the property was but I would recommend reviewing the altering of communication style and content made with guests. E.g., 'We are 2km on the outskirts of Portmagee. If you want to stay in the village, please book a place in the village'. There is a nice way to say that.

Verified reviewGood location even though not in centre this didn’t matter. Good view from the bedroom towards the bridge and sea. Very clean and great shower and tea coffee etc. very good value for money. Good communication with hosts prior to arrival.
The mattress was comfy but the bed was a little squeaky. Probably just needs tightening up a bit. Really would struggle to find fault the accommodation has been well thought out.

Verified reviewGreat location. Beautuful scenery. Highly recommended. Great place to stay at a very reasonable price.
Bed is too rickety, and I had to put a pillow between headboard and wall to keep it stable. The toilet seat is loose.mirror in the bathroom is too small and hung too high.

Verified reviewThe 25 euro per booking on the sauna and jacuzzi was well worth it. The host was very helpful and provided us with a return taxi to the local pub.

Verified reviewIt is close to the little town with a great seafood restaurant and the port and close to Cliffs of Moher.
1) we were not advised that there was no water upon check in. It took 4 attempts and over 3 hrs to get water service restored. Was told it was due to power failure and would be restored soon, only to finally find it was a trip switch that was never engaged...once the trip switch was found disengaged, the water was restored quickly. They did apologize but it was frustrating to have to keep inquiring, especially after a 2nd text went completely unanswered and had to go back to the ring doorbell to speak to someone... 2) toilet seat was hanging on by its last thread so had to be very careful when using it. 3) bed rocked back and forth so much, we were afraid it would break. We stuffed a pillow behind the headboard so it wouldn't rock anymore 4) the brown cover on top of the duvet was very dirty with several stains and hair 5) rented rm # 2 for "sea view" which is only viewable from the far left side barstool at the door.

Verified reviewThis property was perfect for me. It is a great base for exploring the wonderful places around Valentia Island, The Skellig Ring and Portmagee. Paula is a wonderful host who is available to help with anything needed. She gives great info on where to eat in the area, from where to get breakfast to amazing evening meals!
I could find no faults during my stay.

Verified reviewClean basic accommodation in a converted house. Grand for what you pay for. Don't underestimate that it's 3 km from portmagee pubs etc so you need a car etc - road not suitable to walk safely either. Plenty of tea and coffee and water in room too
