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 StatesBeautiful cottage in a quiet costal town 5 miles from the airport. Set up well enough that no contact with staff was needed, the crib I requested was in the bedroom. I was only there for one night but I think this would be a great option for someone staying in Iceland longer. The deck was very nice for a place to relax.

United StatesI wish there wasn't as much light pollution but it was fine. It was rather neat to see the light from the working lighthouse. I also wish that there was space for a queen or king bed so my husband and I could sleep together. However, we knew the sleeping arrangements when we booked so it was not a surprise and the beds were so comfortable.
The location to the airport was convenient and to walk around the lighthouse and coast line. It was quiet and peaceful. Plenty of space, especially to relax in the family room and to eat in the kitchen. The shower and bathroom were great, and we appreciated the little extras. We liked that we could open the windows and get cool air. Nice that they had a TV with different streaming services, even though we didn't use it. Too many other lovely things to see outside!

United StatesThere was no breakfast. We really would have liked to have salt, pepper, sugar. This was the first BNB we have been to that did not have some food provided. We were disappointed in how much light there was outside. There would have been a much better night sky without all the lights. Northern lights would have been much better the first night. We did not get the correct PIN number to start but luckily had a phone number to call to get it figured out. It would be good if the owners manual was there for the induction burners. We had to download the owners manual to get it off of lock to make it work. Sorry my photos are on my phone and I am typing this on my iPad.
Loved the hot shower. Beds were comfortable. Nice to visit the lighthouses up the road. It was wonderful to be so close to the airport as we had an early morning light. Really enjoyed seeing the root cellar out back. The grocery store was handy. We caught it just before it closed.

United KingdomThere was a bit of a draft from the front door and it was a very windy day/night so could feel a bit of draught. Would have liked a larger kettle.
Chose this accomodation as it was only 15 mins from the airport and avoids the traffic of Reykjavik. Lovely and neatly contained apartment. Lovely space and bathroom. Well equipped kitchen area. Clean and in a lovely location. Would have liked to explore the shoreline if the weather had been better.

GermanyWe had a short, 1-night stopover in Iceland, and it was nice to have accommodations away from the busier areas but still near the airport. The apartment is comfortable for 2. We didn't use the kitchenette, but would have if we'd stayed longer. The view is stunning, and the nearby lighthouse is also a scenic area.

United KingdomI’m glad we were in the end cabin as noise travelled quite badly. The hosts do have rules for quiet hours tho so it didn’t disturb us too much. I think most people use this place as an airport stop over but we stayed here for our whole trip. It would have been good to have spare bin bags and a dust pan and brush in there so we could clean up for ourselves a bit more during our stay. I’m sure we would have gotten them if we’d asked but we were out and about a lot!
Loved the location, right next to the airport but also by the coast so some lovely walks and a nice restaurant at the lighthouse. Easy to get around if you have a car, we drove into Reykjavík a couple of times and it’s only about an hour away. We met one of the hosts and he was lovely. The cabin itself is really cute and nicely decorated, beds are pretty comfy and you can login to your Netflix etc. There’s also a fridge and little freezer and plenty of parking.

SpainSince the "outside" studios are prefabricated, you can easily hear your neighbors. It's ok when they are not noisy, but sometimes if someone arrives late in the night you cannot avoid being woke up by doors or showers. Otherwise, everything fine.
Quiet location, not far from the airport, only around 15-20 minutes by car. Very handy when you need to take the plain the next day. It's also quite close to the "Blue Lagoon" thermal springs.

Super convenient for Keflavik airport with several restaurants nearby (Rostin by the lighthouse is great). The owner is really friendly and helpful. Apartment was well equipped, warm, clean and tidy and perfect for our stopover. Self check-in / out is really helpful if you're arriving late or leaving early.

Very tasteful and good quality furniture. Kitchen perfectly equipped. Thoughtfully chosen products available for cooking as well as in the bathroom. (Thank you for the really generous amount of coffeepads :-) Perfect location upon arrival (or departure) as only 10-15 minutes from the airport but interestingly despite that no plane noise! Very nice walking opportunities and wonderful views along the shoreline (close to lighthouses). Very friendly and welcoming owners (living across the street)!

Very comfortable with big kitchen with Dolce Gusto Coffee machine and several cups available, house is heated by floor, big, complete bathroom with showergel and even conditioner and cotton tips available. Nicely decorated like a beach house. Located close to the lighthouse and because of the dark place, also very good chance on seeing the Northern light.
