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):
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.
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.).

Canadawifi fell through at times, it was super necessary, as we visite beginning of June, however in winter, it could be potential problem. the heating units in each cabin were on and off, the staff were very nice and helpful and came over to look and help fix in person, and explained that at night there are power outages and certain system resets.
characteristics of the cabin, nice decor, all beds in Iceland seem the same this is a good thing, all were very comfortable. all the essentials were there, free coffee, tea, hot chocolate were especially nice. restaurant available breakfast 2000isk per person, we didnt have any as we left early next morn. available for dinner, good option to have on site.

BulgariaThe bathroom was tiny and the shower cabin was super small and a bit unstable. The walls were rather thin and we could hear other guests/they could hear us. The place looked quite different from the advertisement photos - smaller and not that "polished" as on the photos.
The place is close to the Golden circle and relatively close to Reykjavik. The staff was super kind and friendly. The bed was very comfy and spacious. The room was warm (heating was on).

CanadaI wish the bathroom was a little bigger. The shower kept leaking water into the bathroom and I know to keep the curtains within the white frame but it was quite hard since the space was small. Otherwise, it was very nice!!!
Loved the view of our cottage house. It was so beautiful at night and in the morning and I loved the privacy of the room!

Loved the staff here! They were so friendly and so caring. We had checked in a little later than we wanted to and they still greeted us with kindness. We told the gal we were leaving the next morning at 7am but the guesthouse coffee area was only opened at 8, so she gave us some instant coffee and a kettle so that we can make our own in our room! I loved it here and the room was so clean!!!
