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):
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.
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.).

United KingdomEverything was great for me during my stay.
Really welcoming and friendly staff, food was delicious and home cooked. I asked for an iron as there wasn't one in the room and Martha had it waiting for me outside my room when I returned after breakfast. The bed was so comfy and everything was spotlessly clean. The room looked out onto the road and the river which I really liked, I could hear the river which only made for a relaxing nights sleep.

United StatesIt wasn’t a problem for us but if you no longer do stairs this is not the place for you. All the accommodations are on the 2nd floor.
The location was good for walking around Cong. It was very clean and welcoming. Nice big breakfast area and comfortable reading/relaxing area with lots of local information. Martha was very welcoming and personable. Would happily recommend her B&B.

United StatesThat we didn't stay longer!
Ryan's River Lodge was a perfect haven for our short stay in Cong - perched right on the river and adjacent to the village centre, Abbey and Cong Woods. Martha is a lovely host who could not have been more gracious or helpful. The B&B is kept in beautiful condition and our room and bathroom were spotless, comfortable and well-equipped. The breakfast is superb and I cannot remember ever enjoying such a delicious tomato and cheese omelette! On site parking and WiFi are additional welcome perks. We will definitely return!

Loved the location with free off-street parking. Within walking distance of restaurants, pubs, and shopping. Our room overlooked the stream. Quaint small town atmosphere. LOVED the modern, HOT, shower. Breakfast and options were devine. Even with other guests, the room was quiet. The lodge decor was superb.
