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...).

IsraelThe only thing we didn't like was the fact we couldn't stay longer.
An amazing place, beautifully designed and decorated. The sweetest owner, so welcoming and kind. The place smelled so clean and fresh, the surrounding area was beautiful! We loved every second of it.

United StatesLoa’s Nest had a personal touch that we didn’t experience anywhere else we stayed throughout our 10 day trip in Iceland. The room was immaculate and the common area was a wonderful space to relax or converse with others. The black out curtains were perfect for getting a good night’s sleep and the waffles & coffee in the morning added a nice personal touch. The owners were present in the morning and offered their knowledge and expertise regarding the area and things to do. We would absolutely stay here again! Thank you Loa’s Nest!

CanadaIt was an excellent and homely place to stay – great location, clean room, comfortable bed, shared kitchen and spacious living & dining area. The hosts are warm, friendly and very helpful. We had freshly-made, delicious waffles with homemade rhubarb jam and tea for breakfast. Out of all the places we stayed in Iceland this was one of the best.

10/10. Great place, rooms just right and very comfortable beds. Lobby/common area perfect and excellent hosts. Waffles and coffee in the morning really appreciated.

Very nice room with plenty of space. The hotel is managed by a lovely couple - Unnur and Ingi, and they were both very helpful and kind during our stay. Every morning they provide the guests with coffee and delicious waffles! Also, it's not very far from the Golden Circle attractions.

United StatesNot a thing. Wonderful place. And being Iceland of course it was windy and cold but you wouldn’t know it walking inside. And all the birds nesting and flying around made it so special.
It was absolutely the best stopover for every reason. What an amazing family operating this sweet rental place. Made you feel like you were just home and happy and everything you needed and everyone came together in the morning to meet and chat and become friends. What a special place!! Anyone coming through here would absolutely miss out if they missed this place. Just wonderful! Can’t say enough about it.
