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 reviewThe room was fabulous and the lovely see view . Host was very friendly. Had everything you could need near shops . Beach's and town.
The kitchen being open all day and night should lock after breakfast. Because of people can just take advantage and use all day and night . And just leave open for breakfast .

Verified reviewThe Rose of the Sea was the perfect BnB, Ann was an amazing host who looked after us during our stay. We booked last minute to take refuge from the weather during our camping trip. Ann went above and beyond to cater for our needs during our stay. The Rose of the Sea property was very clean, we had a large room and en-suite with a very comfortable bed and a communal kitchen area for breakfast. The property overlooks the sea and is close to Belmullet (a nice town with pubs, shops and a tidal pool to swim in). There are many walks near by including Erris Head Loop Walk which we definitely recommend. There is also multiple beautiful beaches and surf spots to make the most of. Overall the value for money compared to other places in the area was outstanding. We had a fantastic stay and plan to come back soon. Thank you Ann for your hospitality!

Verified reviewDue to some recent challenges with assigned staff, the owner was kind enough to contact me to ask if I wanted to cancel prior to my trip, given recent negative reviews. I proceeded with the trip, and by the time I arrived, the very friendly owner was present, and I enjoyed my stay very much. Nice house, relaxed atmosphere, and very good value for money.

Verified reviewLocation was great , water was hot , room was very nice.
Being on the coast it’s very windy and my room (3) was very loud but only in the front side. I pretty much checked myself in and had no contact with anyone from the property the whole time I was there. On a good note, I would stay there again

Verified reviewOnce we were given the correct room, it was spacious.
When we arrived at the property, we came across the host couple out the back of the property, who seemed surprised that we were there. Through google translate, we managed to tell them that we had booked a room and we were shown inside. They seemed flustered and unhappy, as though we shouldn't have been there. They showed us to a room that was not the room we had booked and this was difficult to communicate. We argued via google translate for a few minutes before they showed us to the correct room. They seemed very unhappy about giving us this room even though I showed them the photos and booking proof. The room was quite dusty with visible dust on the surfaces. Breakfast was a self serve situation with just cereal, bread and yoghurts available. This was laid out in the kitchen which was the hosts own, so it felt uncomfortable being in there helping ourselves to food. It was a really strange situation and we felt quite uncomfortable staying there, like we had turned up at someone's house and imposed on them, and even considered booking another room elsewhere. We didn't receive any communication about arriving at the property and got a 'leave a review' message before we'd even arrived. The host couple were certainly not friendly and welcoming as mentioned in other reviews.
Hi Emma, I am so sorry for your experience. We have had some communication issues and the couple are usually very welcoming and the standards of hygiene are usually exceptional. I am not sure what happened but I will look into the matter and will ensure that the hosts are fully aware of when guests are arriving to be fully prepared. The kitchen is for guests, and they should have their food stored in the seperate kitchen, but it is clear that they were not expecting you...... once again, my apologies.....

Verified reviewLocation was perfect for the golf course which was the reason for the visit.
There was no one aware that I was visiting & the old couple there weren't informed. Very little food available so breakfast was minimal. Have contacted the premises but have not heard anything back.

Verified reviewIt was easy to find The staff were nice but couldn’t speak English in an English speaking country. It was very difficult to book in. They showed us to the wrong room first.
The breakfast was extremely poor. Badly bruised apples for breakfast. Two slices of bread in fridge the first morning none the second. Same with the yoghurt’s

Verified reviewGreat location, friendly hosts, comfortable room, access to kitchen and sitting room, wonderful choice of food for breakfast.
The fact we were given a different room than the one we had booked, the very low pressure of the shower.

Verified reviewEveryone was friendly and helpful. Room clean, neat and warm. Beds and duvets super comfy. Liked the casual 'help yourself' approach to the breakfast - no pressure. Beautiful views from room. Hope to be back.
A couple of the lamps in the room didn't seem to be working. Light bulbs might need to be changed.
