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...).

AustraliaWe had a room at the top of the house which was fabulous but unfortunately we also had two large suitcases that we had to get up the staircases (two floors) but that was not the host's fault!
There were two choices for breakfast - pancakes, which also came with a small bowl of muesli/granola and yogurt and some fruit, OR an Irish breakfast which included eggs, sausages, bacon, white sausage and black sausage as well as toast. There were also self serve options of yogurt, cereals, fruit and various toasts.

United StatesWe absolutely loved our stay here. The home is beautiful in an equally beautiful and quiet location. The host was fantastic and made us feel right at home. Breakfast was great and much appreciated. The nearby town was also quite nice and we recommend the Oughterard Heritage Walk. It was short, relaxing, and educational.

IrelandVery minor things: - plug points were a little sparse; would've been good to have a point near the bed for phones - the duvet was coming out of its cover through the night
We were in Connemara as my partner was running the marathon, so we chose the B&B based on its location near the pick-up point for the buses to the Connemarathon; but truly everything was wonderful from the moment we stepped in. Location-wise, it's tucked in a cosy street just a 10min walk away from the main road and the town. As soon as we stepped in to check-in, Barbara was there to welcome us into her cosy place and immediately made us feel at home. She showed us to our room, asked us when and what we'd like for breakfast, and was interested in us and so full of warmth and energy – she's an absolute charm and the perfect host. She made sure we had everything we needed, at our convenience, and was extremely generous and fun to speak to. The room was perfectly comfortable and sizeable, the bathroom was beautiful (loved the green and white tiling), shower was warm. Breakfast was freshly made for us when we went down, together with coffee and any other special requests; and the space was bright, comfortable and decorated sweetly with family photos and comfy interiors. I especially loved the sunroom where I spent half an hour in the morning drinking a second cup of coffee and flipping through a coffee-table book on Ireland's beautiful places. There's also a huge deck and back yard/garden, which sadly we weren't able to enjoy because of the weather (but perhaps next time!). It was all the things that are wonderful about a B&B, especially in this time of impersonal Airbnbs and hotels. Special shoutout to Barbara for running her place with all the joy, energy, and charm and making it look effortless.

Barbara is a wonderful host. Great wit. Breakfast was perfect. Twin room was so comfortable and spotlessly clean. The peace and quiet. We slept so well. Very close to town centre. Barbara organised a booking at a perfect little restaurant whilst we were out road tripping the area to Kylemore Abbey and Clifden. Highly recommend a stay at Woodlands. Thank you Barbara you made us feel so at home.
