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 KingdomNothing..... Everything was immaculate, couldn't fault it.
The setting was spectacular. Everything we need for a brief visit to Northern Ireland. It suited the three of us, larger families might find the living room a bit of a squeeze if wanting to sit and watch TV. It's not what we were there for though.

IrelandThat I couldn't stay longer!
The property is in a fantastic spot with stunning views - looking out over Lough Foyle and County Derry. The place was really clean, with plenty of towels and everything you need for a comfortable stay. The house instructions were clear and the wifi was much welcomed.

Location and views. We stayed with our 4 and 6 year old and despite the weather not being on our side we made the most of our stay. Hannons is a cosy little cottage with great views and can't wait to return in the brighter nights to make the most of it. Everything at hand for self catering and felt at home

Absolutely stunning area, the views were beautiful 😍 the house was easy to get to, close to amenities. Very comfortable, everything you needed was there and so clean. We were 2 couples so the layout was perfect as each room was either end of the cottage with its own bathroom. The kitchen and living area were in the centre. Very cosy too, fire ready to be lit when we arrived which was so lovely. We didn't see Aine but I knew I could reach out if we did need something.

IrelandWouldn't change a thing. The place is flawless. The only thing we didn't like was that we couldn't stay longer.
The house is absolutely stunning and spotless. The view is breathtaking and the house is perfectly situated. The house had everything we needed and the beds were super comfortable. It is easily accessible to everything and the kids were particularly happy that the beach was only six minutes away. It was great for the teenagers that the house had WiFi and Netflix. The kids also loved the fact that they could see the sheep and cows and hear them too. Would highly recommend this house to anyone and we'd have to definitely love to visit again. The owner was lovely to deal with and quick to respond and very informative. Thanks. Nora, Dermot and family.

United KingdomNothing to dislike…
From the moment we pulled into the Hannons cottage driveway and took in the stunning view from across the tip of the North Atlantic to Portstewart down to Londonderry at the end of the foyle estuary, we were sold…the cottage itself was spotless and spacious with lovely turf fire not that it was needed but hey you can’t beat it for that authentic Donegal feeling…hope to get back soon…had a wonderful three day break exploring the area 10/10
