How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewIt was a challenge finding the property to begin with based on the description. This needs to be improved. Also I do not recall the hotel description stating it is paid street parking. Providing the information would be helpful as well as how to use the paid parking machines.

Verified reviewThe location could not be beat. We were right near the center of activity in Reykjavik, yet just far enough from the main drag for it to be quiet. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well-stocked.
There's not much to be done about the layout of the apartment, but it is definitely weird. It is necessary to go through the bathroom OR through BOTH bedrooms to get to the kitchen. The bedrooms were side by side, with a connecting door. The whole layout was a little unwieldy for two couples.

Verified reviewThe apartment was great, really central location, very clean and comfortable, we got loads of useful information before we arrived about places to eat and visit in the local area (as well as our actual check-in details) and an offer from the host to help us get discounts at some local places if needed. The only reason I didn't rate it a 10 is because we didn't realise one bedroom is positioned so that you either have to walk through another bedroom to access it, or go out of the apartment and back in again through a separate door, but this is a very minor thing - would highly recommend this apartment if you're staying in Reykjavik
Thank you for a wonderful review, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay in Briet Apartments. Hope you will be able to visit us again someday!

Verified reviewLocation was good. House was warm
Wifi did not work and owner did not respond when it was reported. Also some broken furniture and no cold water in kitchen. Not very clean on arrival. The house layout is odd, have to go through bathroom to reach kitchen. Parking a costly pain.

Verified reviewThe localization of the apartment was superb, right in city center and close to everything: supermarket, stores, restaurants. The apartment is super comfortable, warm enough and the beds as nice to sleep. Even the room being close to the street it was very quite to sleep. The access was easy to find and to enter at the house. It's nice and important, specially during winter, to have a space to enter and take off the boots like they do. The kitchen is well equiped and easy to cook on it.
The weird part, for us, is that the toilet is in the middle of the house and you can access trough the kitchen or the living room. When arriving we tough we didn't have a kitchen cause it is between the toilet and another room, so the distribution of the house is a little weird but you get used to it. On Friday, our last day, the apartment above us made a lot of noise which was uncomfortable. They were walking a loooot during the night and woke me up several times but this was the only day it bothered.

Verified reviewThe apartment is very centrally located, super close to everything, so you can walk everywhere basically. The owner helped in everything, if we had a request for new sponges, toilet papers, they got those very quickly for us. However, we never got a reply here, on Booking, which was a bit odd. Also, the bathroom's ceiling was pretty mouldy, that made the stay a little uncomfortable, but generally quite comfortable place.

Verified reviewGood location and very central . Walk to old harbour, church, old town, restaurants and supermarket. The key lock box was great with a group. Plenty of space.
A few minor but important omissions such as no garbage bags.

Verified reviewFabulous location, warm and comfortable.
The layout of the property, having to go through the bathroom or two bedrooms to reach the kitchen was not appealing. We were two couples sharing and this was not ideal. Property needed a little TLC, doors very awkward to open, shower broke, threshold between kitchen and bathroom needed attention, too much furniture in living room making it feel smaller than what it was. The property itself is lovely but with a little TLC it could be amazing.

Verified reviewEasy to find keys and get in, comfortable flat in great location. There is a local supermarket for supplies, the kitchen was well equipped (no microwave). Beds were comfortable, shower worked well. Useful having towels etc supplied. Good wifi.
Flat felt cold when we arrived, windows were open and heating not on. Took about 12 hours to warm up the flat and then we were really warm for the rest of our stay.
