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.).

Czech RepublicThere is a big couch in the living room, which normally would be a plus, but the dining table size and overall space around it suffers because of that, so a little more space around the dining table would be great.
Our host was wonderful, very attentive and always available to help. There is parking space right next to the front door and the surroundings are super quiet. The place itself was amazing, clean and it had everything we needed.

United StatesA beautiful, cozy apartment located in the peaceful countryside. Martina is a splendid host; she makes you feel very much at home. She recommended nearby restaurants and her suggestions were spot on. The apartment itself was completely spotless, the bed was very comfortable, and the pergola attached to the apartment was lovely; ideal if you wish to read outside whilst drinking tea like I did. My written praises alone are not enough for Riverside. I will most definitely return. The only negative was that I couldn’t stay longer.

IrelandNothing, this was an ideal location for us and it had every convenience imaginable. There was nothing not to like
The lodgings were really comfortable, well equipped and private, just what my special needs daughter who is autistic and diabetic and I really needed. We were so lucky to get this private apartment with a: kitchen dinet, bedroom and on sweet shower toilet all to ourselves. It was within easy reach of our main interest: The Miltown Malby festival, amid lots of local attractions and our hosts whilst discreet, bent over backwards to make sure we were happy and had everything we needed to find comfort within. And of course my daughter loved their ornamental gardens: lovely flowers, owls etc etc. To my mind this is a hidden gem, totally suitable for any carer hoping to treat a vulnerable person to a home from home holiday in a nice quiet location. Everything was just right and easy to enjoy. Preparing a few simple healthy meals for ourselves saved us an absolute fortune too.

IrelandNo TV in the bedroom, however limited wall space due to the bathroom door so this is very understandable. TV in the living room so a bedroom one was not really required. Meter requires top up if running low, and only accepts €1 coins, so perhaps plan ahead with that one. Shops available nearby (short drive) if not prepared for this.
Amazing location, spotless home. More facilities than you would ever need. Bed was extremely comfortable, as was the recliner couch. Wi-Fi was great, surprisingly enough, given the rural area. Host was fantastic, we were left undisturbed, however Martina was available should we have needed anything. 10/10, we will absolutely be back (if any availability!) Doonbeg itself is very close to some amazing locations, we felt we needed more time to see it all!

IrelandThe apartment is in the countryside, a few kms from Doonbeg town, so it is necessary to drive to get to/from Doonbeg.
Very nice, spotlessly clean, small apartment. Very well equipped with everything you could need. Martina met us to hand over the keys, gave us some suggestions for restaurants, etc. She was very flexiable about check in/out times. A pleasure to deal with. Great location to explore south Clare - Kilkee, Loop Head, etc. Couple of very nice restaurants in Doonbeg town and a small supermarket which was great for picking up breakfast.

The flat has all you need and is cosy and spotless. Martina is a lovely host, and very helpful. We wanted to relax and explore Clare, so this apartment was ideal, plus it's only a few minutes' drive to Kilrush. I highly recommend the place and would like to stay there again.
