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 KingdomAwful communication with owner - we asked for tips round NYE and got ignored. Was not told where to leave bins so had to leave our food waste in the outside bins for the public on the sidewalk. Dishes were dirty when checking in for the first time. Smell came from the shower/ drains as soon as you switched on the shower. Safe isn’t ideal, can be picked up with ease.
Close proximity to town centre, ideal for walking around town. Bed was comfy - had Netflix (which you had to sign into your personal account) Key box was very handy Overall clean apartment accept smelly shower and dirty dishes

United KingdomThe only negative would be the eggy smell from the shower. I know you can’t avoid it in Iceland but we stayed in two other places and the smell wasn’t a fraction as bad in those. It made us quite uncomfortable when quickly showering and the smell lingered for a long time. The stairs weren’t a problem for us and are worth it to get to the apartment!
The apartment was really beautiful, well kept and super comfortable. Home from home! It felt cosy and made us want to spend more time in the property, the sleep and storage space was 10/10 too!

United KingdomThe bathroom had an incredibly unpleasant smell, like raw sewage. When I flushed the toilet, I could hear water in the shower drain, like the waste water had been plumbed together with the shower. It made me not want to use the shower for fear of raw sewage. I kept the door to the bathroom closed as much as possible.
Great living room and bedroom - very comfortable and felt like a home away from home! I didn't cook in the kitchen, so i can't comment on that, but there is a supermarket nearby to stock up.

United StatesThere wasn't a lift so dragging a lot of suitcases would have been more difficult. And PARKING was a pain, but its a pain all over Reykjavik. A quick note of useful parking garages might be helpful rather than just looking for a street with an open parking spot with the payment app.
It was nice having our own space. This was for a quick overnight, so can't say I put this place through its paces, but location was really good, and having access to a kitchen and living space separate from the bedroom was useful as we repacked for the flight.
