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...).

Beautiful house in a beautiful location and a very attentive host. Deirdre is a generous host with such attention to detail all through the house and in the ample complementary products provided. We were enjoying it so much, we booked it for next year half way through our stay!

AustraliaThe only thing was that the initial impression upon entering was disappointing as the major bedroom has white carpet which is quite stained… this however is not reflective of the rest of the apartment which is gorgeous!
This property is absolutely beautiful it is very spacious has everything you need right on the beach! The layout is very practical with outstanding appliances,welcome drinks and chocolates very welcoming indeed !!The apartment is beautifully decorated.

AustraliaThere wasn't really a seaview as we stayed in the basement. You could glimpse some sea from the master bedroom but there is a car parking space in front so if that is occupied - no view. I expect that the apartment above would have a great view.
Great modern layout with plenty of room and very comfortable master bed. Lovely location and a quiet area. Big, well set up kitchen.

United KingdomThe apartment is lovely and a great location. It’s located in a quiet place with the dart about a ten minute walk up the road to head into Dublin centre. The view when you walk outside the apartment is really nice looking over the sea. From walking into the apartment you’re blown away by how beautifully decorated it is to how deceiving it too. The host Dierdre was so helpful with the booking telling us all about the local area places and transport available which was really helpful. On an arrival there a lovely card and wine left for us which was really kind. We had a great stay!

United KingdomThe smaller bedroom feels a bit less luxurious than the main bedroom (which has the en-suite). Not a problem at all but something to note in advance to decide who gets which room.
The location was amazing and the apartments was so beautifully furnished and cosy. It was a delight to relax in after exploring the city and I could very happily have stayed in all weekend if we hadn’t had plans! The kitchen was very well-equipped and the treats left for us were lovely. The apartment is very close to the Seapoint swim spot — next time we will have a dip!

IrelandThis was a lucky find, really beautiful property with everything you could need for a short stay. The beds were really comfortable and lovely little touches like hot water bottles, not that you'd need them as the apartment is very cosy. The host even left wine and bottled water for us. The open plan kitchen and living area was lovely to relax in. The location is ideal, across the road from Seapoint Beach (perfect for a morning swim) and a few minutes walk to the dart. There was parking available nearby too. Really enjoyed our break and will definitely visit again.

IrelandThe apartment is beautifully designed and has everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The living area was perfect for our group to sit around in before leaving for the town and to unwind after a long day. Just a short walk to the DART station was ideal too. We all agreed we had one of the best sleeps ever in the beds, they were so comfortable. We were beyond happy with everything from the instructions and directions to arrive to the facilities in the apartment.

United StatesLighting in second bedroom - perhaps a floor lamp near the bed. The bed was large which is great for couples but not enough room on either side - I just slipped the bed over a bit to make room for myself to get in. Hooks for hanging clothes in bedrooms and bathrooms would be welcome. Phone signal strength was non-existent in apartment. WiFi helped a lot after I found the sign in. Washcloths would have been very welcome. I know Europe isn't a fan.
Very easy instructions to locate and then operate the lock box. Wish it was a little higher from the ground but I managed. A little hard to see the grey door from the street but we figured it out. Upon entering, the luxuriousness of the unit is evident. Was worried about it being basement level but my worries were dashed upon walking through. The kitchen is superb. The TV was a bonus with all the local channels available. The fireplace was spectacular - once I figured out that the previous person had inserted the batteries upside down. Loved the towel warmers. Heated floor in the main suite bath was wonderful. Extra towels, mats, etc were so welcome. Beds were comfy. Being from USA, missed a top sheet but used an extra duvet cover. Location is great - love Monkstown and Avoca Market! Buckleys is great. People were swimming in the bay. Amazing. Very close to the train stations but no sound transmitted at all. Hall bath is small but elegant.

IrelandThe apartment is exceptional! Beautifully appointed, it's both luxurious and practical with everything at hand for a comfortable break away. Deirdre quickly responds to messages. We were made feel very welcome on arrival by her kind note, chocolates, wine, water and kitchen basics. While you won't want to leave the beautiful interior, the location is perfect to walk across the road to Seapoint beach for a swim in the sea or hop on the dart to Dún Laoghaire and beyond. We hated leaving and have already booked a stay for next year to console ourselves!😃
