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 StatesView of the cemetery unsettled my friends, we travelled in June so it was bright all day, but I imagine during the winter months it can get a bit creepy. The lock on the bathroom door was a bit finicky, my friend panicked because she couldn’t get out.
Nice porch to watch sunset on, easy check in. The area near the apartment is lovely.

FranceNo human interaction, but it was winter and there was a storm with closed roads so it wasn't that suprising. Also the restaurant was closed.
I usually stay at the guesthouse but this time I tried the Apartments which is located a bit higher up. The place was empty so it was awesome! The room was big, with a very spacious bathroom with a real bath! Not very practical but it was fun :) The bed was big and comfy and the whole place/location is really quiet. The view was also nice: residential street with only a few houses and the sea on one side, the mountains on the other side. Although there was no common area where you can cook and eat, I appreciated to complimentary tea/coffee and the fact that there was a individual fridge and a boiler in the room, allowing for some (very) minimal meals. It's not an issue, there are a few restaurants in Blönduós. The road were closed the next day but the owner allowed to stay until a few hours after the checkout time without extra, that was a nice gesture.

CanadaThe screens on the windows are not secured so many flies enter. We arranged the netting on the windows to cover better and that did help.
Very spacious! We liked the little balcony, big windows, good blackout drapes for summer nights. The hosts, although we didn't meet them were always pleasant and quick to respond if we messaged them.

United KingdomWiFi didn't work. I believe the hosts will have been aware of this before my stay as someone had previously wrote on the A4 page giving the password, that the WiFi didn't work. Next to a graveyard, but once I settled in that didn't bother me. Not much going on in the town.
Lots of space, warm and quiet and comfortable. Good facilities.

United KingdomIn an ideal world, the shower would have been more spacious, but given the overall comfort, spaciousness and surroundings, it’s a minor point.
First self-catering stop on a trip round the E1, and set a standard that was hard to beat. The apartment was very spacious (the largest we stayed in), well appointed and had marvellous views over Blönduós and surrounding areas (the best views we had at our various stopping points). Cooking facilities were good. A really good start to our journey, which set standards later stops rarely met.
