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 reviewGerard does everything he can to make you feel at home. He offered to collect me from town if needed. He seeks feedback to ensure he hasn't overlooked something.
No clear signage to identify which property quickly. I suggested that a cut-out of a kitty cat would do it, as it is a residential area.

Verified reviewOh, Gerald — I am truly delighted to leave this recommendation. My initial plan was to stay in Shannon, as that was where my work assignment was based, but I eventually found accommodation here. The experience exceeded my expectations in every way. Gerald provided my colleague and me with a level of comfort that went far beyond anything we could have imagined. He constantly went the extra mile — offering to drop us at the mall or around town and always picking us up whenever we were ready. This was far beyond our original arrangement, yet he did it with such kindness and generosity. The facility itself was quiet, peaceful, and the perfect place to rest after long days. It felt like a true home away from home. What stood out most, however, was Gerald’s exceptional hospitality. He created a truly wonderful experience, both within the facility and beyond it. I have already made a personal commitment to return with my family, because nothing compares to the warmth and hospitality Gerald showed us. Gerald, if you are reading this — thank you once again. Even our folks back in Nigeria were delighted to hear about the incredible experience we had.
Thanks so much you were great guest and Gentlemen

Verified reviewTo be honest I did not have breakfast but I did have a shower in the newly refurbished bathroom upstairs. The new power shower was so good and did revive me to full health after a long night out in limerick.

Verified reviewThe location and price attracted us. The place is under a bit of construction, but the work that’s completed is beautiful. The host has excellent taste. The upstairs bathroom has gorgeous gigantic tiles like I have never seen. There are a few tiles left to be placed but apparently there are trades people shortages. The shower was modern, clean and had plenty of hot water. The host was so lovely and apologetic for the shortcomings of the place. We sat for more than an hour getting to know him and hearing about what he is doing with the place. We will definitely stay again.
The parking area is a bit rough, but It will be stunning inside and out once it is completed.

Verified reviewBig comfortable bed, big kitchen open for guests
I saw in host answers that this place is the cheapest in the area. I agree but I would rather small room, small bed and clean bedroom. Floors were dirty (dust and people hair on the floor), cobwebs around the walls and ceiling, dusty side beds and lamps and then under the bed was everything- trash, dusty side beds, mats- everything moved under the bed( took photos as I couldn’t belive it).Place has potential, really- someone has a nice taste of decorating- but they do need a good cleaner
you came very late at night and we were overbooked i showed you a room we don't normally rent out and you accepted you say everything thing was moving under the bed how can that be our beds are low to the ground you would have to go down on all fours to look under there why would anyone want to do that if we choose to use under the bed for storage of mats thats our business not yours we could have refused you and you would have to somewhere else late at night but we dinint and let you stay the floor s were cleaned what you are saying is totally untrue and lies Thanks Gérard

Verified reviewThis was one of the best places we have ever stayed. Not only was the room exactly as described, but it was even better in reality. Everything was thought out to the smallest detail: from the comfortable bed to the fully equipped kitchen. I would especially like to note the cleanliness - everything was sparkling. The owner is an incredibly hospitable person. He met us, showed and told us everything, and also gave some great tips on local attractions and restaurants. Communication was easy and pleasant. We felt at home. We sincerely recommend!
