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.).

United KingdomAll good.
Very spacious and clean apartment with everything we needed for a short stay. Very useful having a washing machine and dryer to be able to reuse clothes. The balcony was also great. Great location in a quiet part of the city but close to the main shopping area and bus stop number 9 for day trips and the bus transfer to the airport. Very modern, clean and stylish apartment.

United StatesA few things...when contacting the property there was always a different person answering. Made for some confusion along the way. Also, VERY difficult to locate the apartment as it is NOT labeled. It was simply between two stores and it took quite some time to figure out where it was. We went to several other hotels first. Also, in the bathroom shower there was no shelf to put toiletries such as shampoo, conditioner, etc. A simple shelf installed in the shower would have been nice. Also there were no tissues in the apartment. The cost was outrageous, I felt! I realize we were there in their high season but we paid $3400 for 6 nights! the location was nice. Not directly in the center of things but easily could walk to anywhere. We liked the fact that it was so quiet. Close to bus stop 9 was convenient also.l
My friend and I rented a two bedroom apartment for 6 nights in July 2025. The apartment was clean, modern, and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. There was also a wash machine. Directions to how everything worked was on the kitchen table and that was also helpful. I would recommend this property.

United StatesThe kitchen could have a few more pots and pans, and the knives were dull (fortunately I was able to sharpen them a little). Replace the plastic water boiler with a stainless steel one, and fix the soap dispenser in the shower. A fan would be nice to have in the summer since fresh air only comes in from the balcony window. It would be nice both from Booking.com and hosts if there were a price reduction for longer term rentals. It seems the price is competitive for short term stays but less so for longer term stays. Lastly there was a recommendation for Blue Car Rental as part of the welcome e-mail - I cannot agree with this recommendation as my experience with them was not so great.
One especially nice thing here was how quiet it was, with virtually no traffic noise especially since this part of Laugavegur is pedestrian only. Just about everything was nice inside the apartment, including the furnishings, the washer / dryer, the kitchen appliances, the TV, and the decoration. I appreciated having the elevator in the building too.

United StatesKitchen and bath were missing a few basic amenities that we had to buy, like a hand towel, extra trash bags, and shower soap. Second bedroom with two twins is cramped and would be better for a family with children, rather than the 2 adult couples that we had in our party. Beds and pillows were a bit uncomfortable and bathroom was on the small side. I do realize that this was an apartment in a downtown area and those do run smaller, it still felt like it wasn't quite there to give a higher rating.
Apartment was in a great location within walking distance of most of downtown RKV (the old harbor is a bit out of range). Neighborhood is safe and has many restaurants and conveniences within a few blocks. Elevator to get to apartment is a big bonus. Was a decent price for 4 people in the heart of the city. Living areas were comfortable and clean.

United StatesIt would be ideal to have a microwave (more useful than an oven for a short period) and having tissues in the apartment would be helpful.
We loved staying here! The owner was very kind and quickly replied to my messages. The location is great (right across from bus stop #9, which is always an option for bus tours and the bus back to the airport). It was a big help to keep our luggage in the storage room before checking in. The view is nice since it's on the fourth floor. It's also in a quiet location right off of the main street. I would definitely recommend staying here 😊

We found free parking about 5 minutes walk away. Close to town and local shops, food court (we didn’t try) very nearby too.

IrelandNot an improvement but maybe something to note. When paying for goods by card in Iceland, you sometimes get an option to pay in Euro or Krona. We were advised by two restaurants to choose the Krona option to get a better exchange rate. Maybe this is something that can be added to the welcome/information folder in the apartment (if this is correct advice).
The apartment is in a great location in the heart of Reykjavik, with a 24 hour supermarket across the road. Despite the central location, it was very quiet. It was very clean and had all the essentials - shower gel, shampoo, towels, dishwasher tablets, coffee, sugar etc. The bed was very comfortable. There was lots of parking, at reasonable rates, in the area for our hired car. Communication from our host was excellent before and during our stay. A folder in the apartment had lots of advice on parking, local shops, buses etc. Our host thought of everything - even carrier bags to bring to the shops. I liked that we didn't have to throw away unused items that we had purchased. They were left for other visitors to use. This is not always the case in holiday accommodation and is a waste.

AustraliaEverything was great , the only thing that I could pick was the bathroom being awkward to access the door being right at the base of the bed , was difficult to get around the bottom and side of the bed but lucky I'm small and didn't worry me too much , maybe a small broom to keep floors clean would have been handy but we managed
This property was in the perfect location to downtown , walking distance to everything , we stayed 3 weeks and was so handy to everything and being able to cook and prepare our own meals was fantastic ! Kitchenette was basic but well equipped with a small cooktop , oven was great , and a small but big enough fridge , washer and dryer in bathroom made life much easier everything made this place very comfortable , the balcony was cozy and comfortable ,
