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...).

AustraliaJust a bit further walking distance then we expected. But still walkable.
The 2 mikes are lovely. Mike has tried to provide a hotel room experience in a bedroom. He has done well with fridge and ironing board included. Better than some hotels we have stayed in. Not a lot of room once suitcases laid out, but manageable. Both Mikes happy to have a chat. Felt very personal. Mike is very organised when it comes to advising transport options. Great communication.

GermanyMike and Michael are great hosts. They give you some tipps on what to do in Dublin. The room was great, just like the breakfast. The chats in the morning were always interesting and they are shady interested in feedback about the city and their rooms. They even had power adapters already in the room. I would love to stay there again

United KingdomJust found street noisy at times but that is obviously beyond hosts control. We had the windows open and could have closed it because an excellent fan was in the room however we preferred the window open so accept it was our problem.
Everything. The 2 Mike's have the host job spot on. Helpful, respectful of your privacy, breakfast no fuss excellent balance of foods some home baked. Walk in shower no struggling into the bath. I really enjoyed the chats as they join guests for breakfast. Location great for city access and near docks for ferry home. Mike explained bus and tram use thoroughly.

AustriaOur stay with Mike & Michael felt very homey. The room is clean and has everything needed for a city break. The room was also quiet. The guests are very friendly, and breakfast was very good and varied. The house is not very central, but you can easily reach the main tourist sites by walking or using the nearby tram. Very good value for money!

AustraliaNothing it was perfect.
The 2mikes homestay is exceptional. The rooms and facilities; immaculate. Mike and Michael are brilliant hosts. In fact the best I have ever had. It was my 1st time travelling OS alone ( age 70) and this was my 1st stop. I couldn't have felt more at home. They gave helpful, relevant advice and information about public transport, places to visit and special, "off the tourist trail" places. Tram travel is easy as their home is not far from the cbd. They had a leap card for me and even drove me to a pick up in the city for a bus day tour to Belfast. It was an early departure and they had a delicious breakfast and lunch packed for me. They truly go above and beyond and are intelligent, delightful, funny and charismatic hosts, and...great cooks. I had a tear in my eye on farewell.

United StatesEverything was perfect.
We loved our stay with Mike and Michael. They were just wonderful. Fun to talk to and exceedingly accommodating to all our needs. They went above and beyond all expectations, including going out of their way to save us trouble and make our stay in Dublin more comfortable. In addition, the breakfasts items were plentiful and delicious. The location was great, just a 10 minute walk to the tram that took us everywhere we wanted to go. The bed was very comfortable, the room was cozy with a lot of attention to detail, and a great shower. Plus two lovely kitties...Buttons and Twix. We spent four nights here after a 3-week road trip through Ireland and stayed in 15 different B&Bs and hotels and this was the best by far. Thanks, Mike and Michael!

PolandOur stay here was a hit. Mike was very welcoming and helpful and made sure our stay was comfortable. On the first day he gave us maps as soon as we arrived and explained the best way to get around. The room was very clean and spacious. The breakfasts were delicious, Mike even baked muffins with his own hands which was much loved. Not to be left out were the two cats who are very sociable. One of them came by our room every morning to cuddle so we were in a great mood all day and couldn't wait for the next morning. We couldn't have come at a better time during our stay in Dublin!

HungaryMike really went above and beyond to make sure we had a plesant stay in Dublin. Our room was spotless and came with more utilities then we'd expected. The included snack bar was nice and the breakfast was everything we could've asked for, including fruits, freshly-baked pastires/bread and everything else that you'd need for a good meal. On one of the days we've went on a day-trip, and Mike drove us to the pick-up point early in the morning and also packed us the breakfast with tons of snacks for the road. It was really like visiting family and we can't thank them enough for making us feel so welcome in their home.💚

I could write volumes about how excellent this stay with Mike and Michael was! From the moment we arrived Mike was an exceptional host - providing us with well prepared information about Dublin and assisting with travel cards! Our room at the top of the home was spacious and we were spoilt rotten with the number of complimentary treats provided in the room. Breakfast was wonderful with smells from the homemade bakery treats reaching us up the stairs to tempt us down. Exceptional hosts and a wonderful Dublin stay! Cannot fault!

GermanyOur stay at Mike’s Homestay was nothing short of perfection! Before our trip to Dublin, the two Mikes kept us well-informed with all the details on how to get from the airport and provided us with a card of Dublin packed with suggestions for things to do. Upon arrival, we were welcomed into two impeccably clean rooms, complete with thoughtful touches like towels and free sweets. Breakfast was a treat—homemade bread, fresh strawberries, blueberries, and friendly chats every morning. On our departure day, the Mikes even drove us to the bus station so we could enjoy breakfast before leaving. Their hospitality is truly a game changer for your Dublin holiday. Thank you, dearest Mikes – see you again

PortugalWe have nothing to declare. Like my wife said to them, they delivered the truely 5-star experience: thoughfullness and friendliness!
My wife and I went to Dublin for 4 days and had a wonderfull time at Mikes' place. Mikes were truely sympathetic , genuine, and thoughfull hosts. One may wonder why they have such good reviews, but all it takes is spending a night in their place and you will discover why. We really appreciated every detail and will give some examples : they picked up at the bus station when we arrived Dublin and they offered to take us to the congress, which happened. It was pouring rain, and their care kept us dry. In the day after we had to get up earlier, before the breakfast hour and they prepared us a "banquet" to take with us along the way. We also very much appreciated the conversations and sharing of experiences during other breakfasts and occasionally during the day when we met at their place. Should we return to Dublin, we alredy know where to stay.
