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...).

IrelandCould do with new pillows, as the stuffing didn't feel evenly distributed causing to be a little lumpy I very much disliked the road was almost involved in serious crash as on coming car came onto my side of the road while avoiding a pedestrian it's an extremely dangerous road quite narrow and very many blind bends .
Breakfast was very good most people would be quite happy I'd expect.

United KingdomN/a - would definitely stay again.
Great drive from small town of Oughterard up to mountain and loch views which were stunning. Location was amazing. Room was beautiful and spacious with great storage. Couple from Venice who were just leaving had loved their peaceful week exploring. Unfortunately, we were only there overnight. Would've been great to take advantage of the lochs - fishing and boat trips. The Connemara Greenway (Italian with seafood) Restaurant, Powers Thatch Bar and Fahertys Bar in Oughterard town were friendly and made our evening.

NetherlandsNone, all was good.
We'd really liked this B&B which is located in a beautiful area. The host, Silvia, is very kind and went to great lengths to make our stay really pleasant. Breakfast is great, the view from the breakfast room is outstanding; over the lakes of Connemara. We had the family room which was good, shower is good too. The B&B is very comfy and clean. The village Oughterard is only a 10 minutes drive away, with nice restaurants, Galway just 35 mins drive and Kylemore Abbey and the Connemara Visitor centre about 1 hour drive. I can really recommend this B&B. Thanks Silvia for being such a great host!

United StatesI was not exactly sure I was in the right place when the directions took me down a dirt driveway. It was no issue at all, but knowing the house was not visible from the road in advance would have reduced my anxiety about being the right place. It really was no issue but since you are asking for feedback, that’s all I have.
The Tullaleagan Guesthouse was wonderful! My family stayed in two rooms. The rooms were very clean and the breakfast room was also very welcoming and clean. The views for breakfast were outstanding. The food selection and presentation was perfect. Would recommend this guesthouse!

United StatesTullaleagan Guesthouse is situated on the top of a hill overlooking the lake area northwest of Galway. It was a beautiful area to walk. The yard and roadways surrounding the site were filled with blooming flowers and wild blackberries were located all along the roadways. Sylvia was a gracious and helpful hostess. Breakfasts were delicious and the view from the breakfast room were amazing. The nearby town of Oughterard has a wide choice of great pubs for an evening meal. Powers Thatched Bar and Restaurant was a favorite. They had a live Irish music Sunday evening, starting at 6PM.

CanadaWe had to remove our shoes when we entered the house. Slippers were offered, but they were used, so we didn't take them. The 2nd day there, the host told us she was going out for the day and we couldn't get back in the house till 4. She didn't offer a key, so we had the choice of staying in all day or staying away till 4. We had planned an excursion to be back around around 2 pm then have a rest before dinner. As we didn't want to stay in the house all day we left and returned at 4. Seems to me that one rents the place for the day - not selected hours. Bath towels were dried on the line so they are rough like sandpaper. When we asked for new towels, she lectured about cost savings by not drying.. We booked a twin/ double and assumed we'd have a double. But double turned out to be two twins pushed together with 6-inch separation- so not a double. We have stayed at a number of B&Bs during our 3-week trip to Ireland and they have been wonderful. Potential guests here should be aware of these restrictions. It may be fine for some people. It wasn't fine for us.
Price good, lovely view. Good breakfast
