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 KingdomNothing major just a few little things that for me would make it better like loungers on the balcony instead of the chairs & bench and some shelving in the bathroom to put toiletries but really that’s just me being a bit picky
The view is amazing really couldn’t hope for better and for a small studio it was very well stocked with everything you could need in the kitchen and the added touch of leaving little condiments was fantastic. Very clean and comfortable. Also the area is lovely with lots of little cafes and restaurants - simply lovely.

United StatesToo far for big supermarkets. Plus the infestation of ants was irritating. Also the coffee machine leaked. They were told by me on my second or third day about the problems but didn't do anything about it. That said my experience overall was positive
The view was magnificent. Was very walkable.

IrelandThere was a smell of drains which did not clear for my entire stay. I was out during the day and had balcony door open when there in the evenings so it didn't spoil my holiday but definitely an annoyance. Also the electricity went off when kettle and toaster on together. Just a matter of switching the switch back on in the fusebox .No biggy but worth a mention.
Fantastic location.Close to shops and restaurants and a supermarket downstairs. Lovely balcony with views of the sea.

CanadaLocation was great! But would have been nice to have been told about all the construction going on the whole month we were there! Very disappointed. We had to move rooms to have rooms painted. But not told about the hammering, drilling, jack hammering, was so bad we had to leave every day to get away from the noise. No time to sit quiet on the balancy either the construction and the music from the workers! Just think you should let your customers know.

United KingdomCould do with larger fitted sheets on the mattresses. Water tends to come up from the drain in the kitchen floor from time to time when poured down the sink. These are very minor issues and only being mentioned to assist the owners. Did not affect the quality of our stay
The position of the property is second to none. The large balcony and amazing view of the Ria and beyond is spectacular. It was well provided for with all necessary appliances, utensils etc.

United KingdomApartment very cluttered; Definitely need to get rid of the ad-hoc breakfast bar. Shower drain was completely blocked on the first day (which flooded the entire apartment). This was promptly but temporarily fixed, but afterwards still drained so slowly, that we couldn’t use it for more than a minute before it started overflowing the shower tray again and flooded the bathroom . We were somewhat ‘surprised’ after initially booking with Booking.com, to discover we had to pay a hefty ‘deposit-retainer’ fee to Agutur (in case we left any garbage bags or failed to wash any utensils etc). This was a little unnerving, and I felt the need to take a video recording of the apartment on the day we left, in order to safeguard our deposit. Not something we have ever felt the need to do elsewhere. The sun screen (sail) on the balcony unfortunately makes walking around on the small balcony very difficult, as much of it is below shoulder height (some of it only waist height)
Location was fabulous. Property was very clean. Apartment block very quiet. Bed very comfortable

United KingdomI hated the fact that my apartment was the only finished one in the block and the apartments either side of me were still being renovated. I had been told there would be ‘painting’ going on but, in reality, there was drilling, hammering and a tile cutting machine that were used SEVEN days a week. As well as loud music and poor singing from the builders. There were building materials all over the communal area, trip hazards at the top of the stairs and limited space to exit the building due to scaffolding. I complained to Algartur and Booking.com on a regular basis but neither showed any interest or did anything to assist me.
