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.).

CanadaAccessibility is a bit of an issue here. Not only because there is no lift to the rooms -- which isn't unusual in many smaller inns and hotels -- but there is also a labyrinth of fire doors that need to be opened and shut before you get to some of the rooms. Handling luggage up the stairs AND through so many doors is a bit of a pain in the butt. Wifi (lack of it) was also an ongoing issue. We were told it was because of the island location -- but wifi seemed reliable if you were in the pub/ restaurant so it's possible the hotel could do something better to boost signal for the rooms.
Though decor is a bit dated looking, our room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. It was nice to have a seating area where we could settle in with a pizza and glass of wine at night after touring about Achill Island. Bed was very comfortable. Grocery store is a stone's throw from the hotel if you need supplies. Sights on Achill are an easy drive away. Lots of parking available at the hotel.

United KingdomA fan in the room might have helped make it a little more comfortable given the unusual weather event, as it was very stuffy, even with the window open, though admittedly not something many guests are likely to experience regularly I wouldn't have thought.
The staff were welcoming and helpful and the breakfast was lovely. It was in a stunning location and my room was sizeable and comfortable, if a little warm, this said it was unusually hot.

IrelandI can't think of anything
The location was excellent. It was a great place to stay in March as there are not that many places open. We knew we could have meals at the hotel. Beds were comfortable and room very clean. We also liked the view. The staff were great, very friendly and helpful. I asked if they knew where I could buy some turf and they had a bag brought to the hotel! A hotel which the staff care about and are invested in. Nothing was too much trouble.
