Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesThe only thing that was less than ideal was our own fault. The room had heated floors and was very warm, which made it difficult to sleep. In retrospect, if we had cracked a window open it would have been perfect.
The location is a perfect spot close to the Ring Road, but far enough away to feel like you have solitude. It was nice to chat with other guests in the common area and the morning waffles were just what we needed to give us fortitude to fight with nature, as our host said. :)

United StatesAs advertised, fresh waffles were served in the morning. I would have also appreciated a few extras such as fruit, skyr, etc. (nothing fancy) and would have been willing to pay a little more for that.
Convenient, quite, rural location, yet just a few km from Hella and the Ring Road. Exceptionally clean, modern, nice size room with private bath, table and chairs and wardrobe unit. Very comfortable bed and pillows. Excellent lighting. Sufficient electrical outlets for charging my devices. Good WiFi. Staff were very responsive to messages via booking.com.

Loa‘s Nest is by far the best accommodation we had in Iceland. From wonderful hosts, parking, the beautiful house and rooms, the bed and pillows were heavenly, kitchen, free waffles, coffee and tea, everything actually!!! It was my second visit and will stay here again when I come to Iceland in the very near future.

Czech RepublicThis was without a doubt the best accommodation that we had in Iceland (have stayed in another ten locations). Very spacious and nice apartment, beautiful view to a nice garden, spacious large dining / breakfast area. The owners were very kind and it was obvious they enjoy running the guesthouse. Spacious parking, free wifi. Fresh waffles in the morning were amazing. I can highly recommend staying here even for longer than one night. Very well equipped shared kitchen.

Polandnothing. Evething was perfect. Totally reccomended
The view was absolutely perfect, and the location was just ideal. The owners were incredibly kind and hospitable, even preparing amazing pancakes for everyone, despite there being no breakfast included in the offer. The place was very clean, cozy, and felt just like home. We arrived later than expected, but the keys were waiting for us, and everything went smoothly. The large showers, well-equipped amenities (hairdryer, towels, bedding, etc.), and comfortable beds made our stay even better. On-site, there was coffee, tea, cocoa, oatmeal, and a fully equipped kitchen available. The stunning mountain view and breathtaking sunsets were unforgettable. The area is very peaceful, perfect for relaxation.
