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...).

FinlandFriendly hosts, a great location if you have a car (close to Reykjavík, and some grocery shops and restaurants are nearby), a nice neighbourhood to go for a walk.

CanadaThe only thing not working was the light over the stove. The bathroom is very small and more shelf space would have been nice.
It is a good location if you have a car. The room is compact but everything you need is there and because the landlord lives next door it is easy to get anything you may need. Easy parking off the street. Grocery store 5 minutes away.

New Zealandthe shower needs urgent maintenance: some of the pipes had come off and the tap got jammed so I spent good 10 minutes trying to figure out how to turn it off - all while accidentally switching water temperature all the time.
once you realise it’s literally someone’s garage - things start to make sense. parking is merely 2 meters away from the door, no steps and self check in via lock box. fast internet and fully equipped kitchen. great to stay

United KingdomWe didn’t stay long enough :)
Absolutely fantastic apartment, everything you need for a stay in Iceland. The location was perfect, very close the main town and a smaller one. Onsite parking was really useful, bed was super comfy and the apartment had what you need for making your own breakfast, morning coffee, lunch and even dinner. Highly recommend staying here, the price was very much worth it. Lovely little stay, thank you so much.

United KingdomI didn't spend much time in the accommodation but nothing stuck out that I didn't like.
Within a very short time of booking the accommodation, I received a message with details of how to get in. The accommodation was lovely and perfect for me. Everything I needed was there and the cupboards and fridge was stocked with basic foodstuffs. Although I didn't spend much time in the property, the time I did spend there, I was comfortable, very warm and cosy. I have no problems at all recommending this accommodation for solo travellers or even couples who are looking for a relatively cheap, warm, safe, clean and comfortable base in this location.

SingaporeBathroom has a cabinet right in front of the toilet seat and I hit my head twice, luckily no bleeding. Please take it down, so dangerous to place it there. The "apartment" is a converted car garage, that means very poor soundproofing, very little space for the bathroom and kitchen. One side of the bed is basically the garage door, only separated by a small drywall from a DIY shop. We know everything is very expensive in Iceland but this location didn't provide a fair value for money in our opinion.
It had very fast internet

United StatesThe sun never really went down and the shades helped a lot but still peaked through the tiniest bit, wasn’t too bothersome though as the bed was comfortable and the shades were adjustable
Beautiful location not to far from the capital but far enough where it isn’t chaotic, it’s very scenic and was by far the nicest place I’ve stayed in when traveling
