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...).

NetherlandsThe TV was a bit complicated to get going but that may have been our own fumbling around.
Cosy, warm, excellent views, heavenly beds and pillows, car parked right next to the house and very private. We saw the northern lights one night!

MalaysiaSelf check-in and check-out process was easy and there was parking space available for each cabin, so, no problem moving heavy luggage. The cabin had minimalist design, comfortable bed, kettle, microwave and basic kitchen utensil. It was spacious, well heated and located on a quiet location 10 minutes away from Húsavík.

United StatesWe loved our stay at Laxhus! It's located on a farm with beautiful views a short drive from Husavik. We originally were planning to stay closer to Lake Myvatn but I'm so glad we ended up here instead. It was less expensive with much more beautiful surroundings and close to town.

United StatesSeriously nothing it was refreshing.
The privacy. A small studio cottage with no one running down the halls at night. The location was beautiful we sat on the porch watching cows and horses in the pasture as the sun set. There’s no stove , there’s a coffee maker, toaster, and fridge so come prepared.

CanadaThere wasn't anything that I didn't like except that we didn't stay longer. Next time, we might take advantage of the well equipped kitchen to assemble some snacks and enjoy time passing by as we watch the sunrise and sunset, watch the animals go about their business, and wonder where the cars passing by might be heading.
Love the location in a very peaceful field with view of the mountains and water and various farm animals - and so close to Husavik. The private cabin was well-designed, clean and comfortable. Quality touches. Obviously put together with love and care. Very peaceful, convenient and beautiful spot; I would definitely stay again. The hosts were close by but we had no issues that required seeking them out.

PortugalIt was extremely hot inside the hut. It was a great sunny day and all the curtains were open. When we arrived, it was difficult to breathe inside. As a suggestion, in these cases having the curtains closed can mitigate the impact.
A breath taking view. The cabin had everything we expected. Super quiet, with sheep grazing in front, and right on our balcony. :) A great place to stay.
