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.).

United StatesIt was just as expected. We were right above the restaurant/bar and it was perfect. The room was clean. The restaurant had amazing food and a great selection of whiskey.

AustraliaBreakfast starts at 8:00am, I probably would have preferred a 7:30am start.
It's a nice Irish pub with good food and good live music with friendly staff what more could you want? When you do decide to go to bed, it's actually much quieter than I expected (you can hear music, but it's not disturbing - and I'm a very light sleeper). Breakfast was good too.

United StatesSmall room with dirty carpet and a shower that leaks onto the floor. The shower also had sharp edges that my husband cut his foot on. Not as convenient to the night life and better restaurants in the city.
Convenience to the train station.

United StatesThird floor smelled rancid. Very expensive. The floor three button on the elevator also engages the floor 2 button so you have to stop at two different floors to get to floor 3. Room key difficult to use. Room incredibly small.

Great location, staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was basic with a small TV but it was clean and plenty of tea and coffees. There was live music played in the evenings and we enjoyed listening to it.

IrelandFor the price your paying, for the location only, in my opinion, the room was clean and had everything but a bit dated, when we had had dinner, the starter was really lovely hot and fresh, my husband had stake for main unfortunately it was cold alongside with his chips and pepper sauce, I had Guinness Irish stew, there was nothing Irish about it, no Guinness in it what's so ever, over powering with tomatoes (tinned or chopped) which does not ever go into a Irish Guinness stew, with 2 boiled potatoes, it should of been creamy mash ( my opinion), and just warm, such a let down, very disappointing, also for the price breakfast should of been with it, I'd say there's a sewage problem as halfway s during the night in the bar I could smell the toilets coming up the stairs, and when I woke early I could smell it in our room, not sure if it was coming up from the sink in the bathroom or coming in from the vents from outside,
The location was brilliant, center of everything , the waitresses were all very hard working and polite that served us,

IrelandThe TV was so small . it would be good to put in a bigger one. you can hear a lot of the traffic outside from around 6am There is no parking you have to walk apx 5 - 10 minutes to part the car. But this would not stop me from staying there again.
The staff were very friendly. We did not have breakfast , the room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. the fact it is in the city is a great bonus.
