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...).

United StatesI would have preferred a single door at the foot of the stairs, perhaps. At present there is a curtain at the bottom and another at the top of the stairs. The loft is basically divided into two parts with two doors, left and right. A lockable door at the bottom of the stairs would make the loft more of a unit. But this is a minor "quibble." Everything else was comfortable and clean.
The loft was a continuation of my stay after Roisin Dubh Houseboat was booked or I would have stayed on the barge. But the loft was every bit as clean and comfortable. It is only a stone throw away from the Grand Canal and the barge that I stayed on for five days earlier. It's equally lovely, just not as special as staying on a boat.

United KingdomNot a complaint but just to flag up : the bottom of the stairs to the apartment is only screened from the business downstairs by a curtain which I was glad I was aware of from another reviewer before arriving. It is a little disconcerting to start with but once I realised you can lock the doors to your rooms it’s not a problem, plus you only tend to be in the apartment when the business is closed anyway. It definitely wouldn’t put me off staying again.
Everything. Spotlessly clean. Well equipped and well laid out. Great location overlooking the canal. Friendly, helpful owner. Complimentary bike use. Great pub/restaurant just across the way and a shop at the garage selling essentials if needed. Would definitely stay here again if I was in the area.

United KingdomIt would have been great if there had been a washing machine, but we made use of the laundry at the supermarket.
The flat was very well located close to the station and on the canal. The host was super helpful both on arrival and sorting out an early morning taxi. It made a great base for exploring Dublin (about 25 mins away on the train).
