How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewGreat location in the town centre, modern decor and facilities
Room handover was a little brief, no sign outside so not obvious which was the building. Note there is very limited choice for eating in Ballyheigue (basically only the White Sands in the evening) so check if you are going out of season or prepared to drive.

Verified reviewSpotless and newly refurbished private bathroom, very comfortable bed and pillows, short walk from pubs and beach
It was a little noisy as the room faced on to the road, the triple glazing on the window blocked this however the nights we stayed were very hot. Michelle went out of her way to get a fan for the room which solved the problem, very attentive host and greatly appreciated. Would definitely stay again.

Verified reviewLocation was ideal, right on the main street in Ballyheigue.
We didnt have an ensuite, we had to go out on to the corridor for our bathroom. However, the bathroom was private for ourselves. The bedroom was tiny & it was hard to sleep as it was very hot. View outside into a grubby back yard with thrown out furniture.

Verified reviewThe host (Michelle) is an amazing lady. She did help me with a birthday decoration for my girl, and i really appreciate that. The cleanliness of the house is topnotch, and i love the location. The people in the village are noce people as well.
Non availability of basic Kitchenette... I think for the price of the property, a bit of basic kitchenette should be made available for guests in their rooms. Something like "a microwave and a little fridge" to help with takeaways. A guest could stay for more than one night, and these basic kitchenettes would help during the stay.

Verified reviewVery central and spotlessly clean a 5 star accommodation with extremely helpful owners. Michelle and her Mam and Dad were the best.
The stay was too short, will plan a longer stay in future.
