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...).

New ZealandThe unit was comfortable and warm - being self contained was also good for us. While the bed was comfortable it could have been slightly bigger to provide a bit more room. Having onsite parking was also useful.

CanadaI would've liked to have had 3 chairs at the table instead of 2. For 3 people we pulled the table side close to the bed so one person would use the bed to sit on, but for 4 people it would've been a challenge to eat at the same time
It was perfect for our stay. It had a small kitchen, but well equipped and enough for prepping some quick meals. Easy check in using a door code. We had some issues using the code until we figured out you need to push the numbers very gently and then it worked. We also had some issues starting the stove and the personnel was very nice, come to show us how to do it. Felt pretty stupid, but they were very nice about it. Seemed the "lock key" was on, all we had to do was push that lock button to unlock it. Room was big enough for us -2 adults and 1 teen. It could fit 4 people. Perfect location for us to visit the Lava tunnel and the Golden Circle

CanadaBest sleep ever! Bed was comfortable. We flew into Iceland very early in the morning, missing a night of sleep. We called the property and they graciously provided an early check in. We had an afternoon nap, then enjoyed an early evening hot tub and slept soundly for 12 hours.

United KingdomSo the huts are tiny and basic with no views, but they are cheap, so you get what you pay for! I saw reviews moaning about the smell of the water, but that is normal in Iceland. They have two water pipes, one is odourless drinking water and the hot shower water is straight from the earth and smells of sulphur. It's not a big deal once you know that!

New ZealandThe kitchen was small so a bit challenging to cook large meals and wash dishes.
We had our own little cabin, it had it's own little kitchen and bathroom. Kitchen had stovetop and kettle, the necessities for cooking simple meals. The location was not far from town center, close to supermarkets and restaurants.

Czech RepublicTraces of mold in some corners - perhaps inevitable in this kind of building and environment. Also a bit more shelves for food in kitchen and for our stuff in general would be helpful.
Good location for the "Golden Circle" natural monuments. Bungalow comfortably warm even when freezing outside (geothermal heating + hot shower!), comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen. Super easy self check-in (numeric code sent in advance; we would not have to even meet the guy from the reception but we did anyway, as we needed his help to understand the operation of the stove; he gave us a physical key to make entering easier).

GermanyWe had a problem with the toilet that didn't flush. They send someone immediately and it turned out that probably previous people turned on the water supply to the toilet because it was producing noise 🤦♀️
Little houses are great place to stay. There's a small kitchen to cook basic food and a bathroom. It's quite spacious and comfortable

GermanyThe room was very poorly soundproofed and there was a lot of noise from movement in the room next to it and opening and closing the door. The downpipe makes a little odor when there is water running down it (like when you wash your face).
The location was easy to find, the staff were very friendly, the room was small but well equipped and very clean, there was a small microwave and you could heat your own food.
