Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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 States of AmericaJimmy and Mary are so sweet and helpful! They took such good care of us and our baby daughter! Made sure we were comfortable every time they saw us and never balked at any request. Breakfast was bountiful and delicious! The place is quiet, and not that far at all from Dublin, while being very convenient to Dublin airport.

United KingdomNothing to dislike…
Mary and Jimmy’s beautiful property was perfect for our stop in Dublin to watch the 6 nations international between Ireland v Wales. Superb family room, beautiful breakfast and the best hospitality from the owners. They couldn’t do enough for us. We have a 17 year old son with disability and Mary dropped us to either bus or train station every morning to book our daily travels and showed us around Swords and Malahide. Wonderful couple provided 1st class hospitality.

The welcome was warm and hearty. Shown to our room, and breakfast instructions proffered. We asked about somewhere local to go for dinner and Jimmy was extremely knowledgeable. Access to the room was via an outside door.......so we could come and go without disturbing anyone. Slept really well, and next morning breakfast was plentiful and delicious.

United KingdomMary and Jimmy were the loveliest of hosts - we arrived fairly late, but Jimmy still spent time welcoming us, as well as giving us some recommendations on pubs and food nearby. There was a leaflet with some recommendations for pubs and food nearby. The shower was nice and hot, and shampoo and shower gel was provided. The beds were nice a comfortable, and the breakfast was excellent. The breakfast included an assortment of some cereals, yoghurt, fruit and some pastries, as well as some hot food which we had picked the night before. It was a short drive to the airport, so it was super convenient location wise, and the location was stunning - writing this a month after the stay and I'm still able to recall our pleasant experience. :)

IrelandWas perfect for a family party we had nearby. Room was perfect for myself husband and 2 adult sons. Hosts were more than perfect. Arranged our taxi and offered us our breakfast earlier than expected as we had to leave early the next morning. Breakfast was amazing. One of the nicest I’ve had. Very friendly staff. Would highly recommend.

Isle of ManThe towels were not soft. Perhaps air dried? Makes them seem old and takes away from an otherwise comfy experience. Towels should be soft and fluffy.
John and Mary are superb hosts. Can't do enough for you. They even shared their dinner with me and made me a hot toddy (or two). Breakfast is delicious. Will always be my first choice. Hidden gem.
