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.).

United StatesI would not change a thing, We've been to dozens of B&B's throughout the world. Balally House would be in the Top 5%.
Breakfasts were superb, tasty, and nicely presented. Ryan is a chef, so not surprised. Both Ryan and Dawn were friendly and helpful. The location is within ten minutes of Shannon Airport. We would stay here again in the blink of an eye, given our very positive experience.

AustraliaThe breakfast was fantastic, my husband kept ordering the Irish breakfast and highly rated it. The black and white pudding was exceptional. We couldn’t fault the place at all and would recommend to our family back in Australia. It was a great location for us , as we based ourselves here to travel to different locations.

United StatesThe only thing that could have made our stay better was the addition of an air conditioner unit as our room was quite stuffy and it wasn't possible to open more than one window and allow a breeze to cool down the room. Temps are getting hotter every year across the globe and even places as temperate as Ireland have to start thinking about these things for the comfort of guests.
Dawn and her family provided a wonderful stay for us in this very clean, very well maintained, beautiful house. Each morning they prepared an amazing Irish breakfast for us and answered any questions we had. Shannon itself is not a town with much to see/do, but it is close to Bunratty castle/village which was a totally unexpected highlight of our stay. In the end the location worked out perfectly for the number of sights we wanted to see in the area, including the cliffs of Kilkee and nearby castles.

United StatesWalls were quite thin and we could easily hear the people in the next room.
Dawn greeted us at the door and was very friendly and helpful. Since we were leaving early the next morning, she kindly provided a to-go bag with croissants, fruit and yogurt. The room was very clean and the bed very comfortable. Location was super convenient to the airport as it was only a 10 minute drive away.

IrelandNo tap in the guest tea room. Possibly water supplied separately. I found Bellally difficult to find (as a dinosaur). Not their fault but the criss cross of new roads serving Shannon Town and airport and going to Limerick. With sat.nav ok.
Extensive choice on a menu. Had full Irish which had everything.. The continental was much more than a croissant. Homemade compote and Greek yogurt etc. Personal cafetière. Excellent. Immaculate presentation everywhere. Charming hosts. Very helpful. Excellent food at hotel across the road

CanadaI have nothing bad or critical to say about this home.
All aspects of Balally house were wonderful. Communications were responded to quickly and meaningfully. There was a bus top within 50M of the house. Dawn was very friendly and helpful. As I was leaving early in the morning, she arranged a lovely breakfast tray for me - perfect. Dawn also arranged for a taxi to transport me to the airport - 15EU. It arrived on time and I arrived for my flight just at the right time. The bus would also have been quick also, only 5 EU, however it would have placed me at the airport either 3 hours too early, or 45 min too late. Worked perfectly. The room was beautifully appointed and well thought out. An extension chord ensured decent access to electrical outlets.
