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 StatesThe beds are smallish and the ceilings/doorways are low. There was no effective way to darken the room, an issue in the summer light.
Very well located, convenient to the region. Very nice host. Nice welcome with fruit and chocolate bar.

Clear self check-in instructions. We appreciate having the information to identify the exterior (yellow) of the apartment. Our hosts surprised us with a nice welcoming card, apples and icelandic chocolate the minute we stepped into the living area. She also made effort to greet us in person which was really nice. All the information needed to visit the area are well organized in a folder. The apt is not big but creatively furnished and practical. I like the interior design esp the leather handle and beautiful woodem sliding toilet door. The beddings and linen are soft and comfortable. Very good quality. We also appreciate the quality of the body shampoo, hair shampoo and conditioner. Fully equipped kitchen though we didn't cook. There's a shared laundry room. We appreciate having a separate space to dry our laundry. Everything is very well thought off to ensure guests' comfort. I was a bit disappointed when I got the message that entrance to our flat is at the back of the house. But that back entrance was way better. We had a great open view of the sea and saw northern lights for the first time on Aug 26!

United StatesAlthough breakfast not included, some treats were left and some cooking supplies to make cooking, which I did, so nice. Everything was well stocked with attention given for every need. A seal was out in the water which I could see from the apartment. She was nice to give us sightseeing advice. She went above and beyond during our stay.

AustraliaThe weather was cold & windy - we didn't get to enjoy sitting outside to look at the waterway. Definitely not the owners fault.
Very comfortable and modern apartment. There is a double bed in bedroom, but we also used the foldout couch in lounge room - one of the best double bed foldouts I have ever seen, so easy to put in & out. The owner who lives upstairs, allowed us to use her washing machine & dryer, which was much needed. We had fresh fruit and some chocolate waiting for us. Very pleasant stay, thank you very much.

Very friendly host, responsive to questions. Newly renovated, perfectly appointed, snug but comfy. Very comfortable bed. Though it was two twins pushed together, an extra pad made it feel like a queen. Apples, beers and chocolate were awaiting us. She accommodated us making good use of the laundry. Great coffee shop down the block.

United StatesStayed here a few weeks ago before heading back to Reykjavik and really enjoyed my time. The apartment was spacious, beautifully decorated, and had a very warm and cozy feel. I very much appreciate that I was able to use the washing machine and dryer. We had a great time sitting out on the deck while drinking wine in the evening. We met the people running this place and both were very warm and friendly. Would definitely recommend staying here. I would stay again!
