How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

We have a late self service check in and at the room we find no towels because the towels were able only after request but at that time was no reception to give us.

The toilet wasn't properly ventilated so it stank. The toilet was outside the apartment too, but it was private one and like the next door to our apartment door. But overall it was a small minus.
We really liked the breakfast and the room was good, big and cozy (we had 3 person studio). The The warm bread was really good and coffee was great in the breakfast. A plus was also that we could see the aurora from our balcony.

The three back to back doors and locks to get into the room were very tedious. Breakfast was crazy busy one morning if you went earlier, nowhere to sit. Better closer to the end.
The location was amazing!

This is a nice guesthouse. Check-in is at the nearby Guesthouse Aurora run by the same management. I had been in an economy room before, that was really small. This time I stayed in a twin room, which was just perfect. The room had shared facilities but there was never competition for them. In the room there was a "kitchenette" consisting of a small fridge, a microwave, a kettle, some dishes and a kitchen sink. A good desk for working. I very much like the breakfast (served at Guesthouse Aurora), probably one of the best you can have at accommodations in Reykjavik. There are always several types of freshly baked bread, a nice variety of jams, cheese/ham, tomato/cucumber, boiled eggs, cereals, milk. Coffee, juice of course.

Andrea Guesthouse is close to the BSI terminal, church, cafes and restaurants. Its location is very central. I walked to the old harbour ( to catch my boat for whale watching- 12 minute walk ), shopping centre ( 5 minute walk from the harbour ) , Hallgrimskirkja church ( 2 minute walk ) and to the pond ( 5 minutes from the guesthouse ). Reyjavik is a walkable city. The breakfast has minimal options but there was enough for everyone. The sourdough bread is fresh, cheese and butter is very creamy. The bed is comfortable and the place is quiet. I would definitely stay here again if ever I do come back to Reyjavik. Perhaps wintertime….?

Breakfast was in a different building, but still nearby. There was only one toilet stall per floor, but we never had to wait.
The location was amazing! You can easily walk to multiple restaurants, shops, and tourist locations. There’s also free street parking on the same street as the property.

The price is very high for the offered quality and service. The bathroom and toilet are shared, they lacked soap and shampoo. A door was inexplicably propped up in the room.
