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 KingdomA little noisy in the morning due to location. Room was a little small but was great for what we needed.
Perfect location right in the centre of town. Easy check-in process at the restaurant next door and great common area with large kitchen.

United KingdomOnly complaint - like every guest house - duvets are way too thick. Great in the winter, I'm sure!
Nice location, handy for everything. Good taxi company a couple of minutes walk for lifts to Forest Lagoon, airport, local attractions and activities. Shops within easy walk in all directions. Centrum Kitchen and Bar, which runs Hotel Apotek, is right next door, with really nice staff and great breakfasts. Plus, they will store luggage if needed! Room was clean, and the shower was good. There is a great kitchen/lounge on the top floor for self catering.

SwitzerlandThere was a confusion on arrival about the rooms because the personnel didn’t speak English properly (they said I had booked two singles when they should have said that I had booked two twin rooms). Also, many people might appreciate down duvets and pillows, but my nose gets stuffed…
Great central location (although on a weekend night the street below was noisy at first).

New ZealandOnly 2 showers per floor for about 10 rooms, not enough. The shower curtain should have been replaced, it was so filthy at the bottom. Very small bathrooms. There was also a water leak in the wall that dripped all night and stopped when the showers started.
Central location, reasonable sized rooms and rooms were clean.

AustraliaVery noisey at night. Don’t store your food in the fridge - we had ours stolen- lost $100 worth of food. I think because this is a large guesthouse by Iceland standards with no on-site staff member keeping an eye on things and then problems can occur. Only time we had any issues in Iceland.
Great kitchen. Central location

United StatesVery basic. Shower space was too small to fit even 1 person. No elevator in the building
Just a very basic accommodation but in a great location in the fancy town of Akureyi!! Very lovely neighborhood. Has a small play area right opposite to the building. Breakfast was not included in the price of the room but you can pay extra to add it. The blackout curtains worked very well

IcelandThe stairs were a bit steep and for a person with asthma and back problems it was a bit difficult to get up them and you couldn’t get a less than 1L water bottle in the sink to refill
The room was comfortable and they had a common area/kitchen so you could go shopping and cook your own food instead of eating out every day
