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.).

AustraliaInstructions to accommodation could have been more detailed. House is the second house past the reception house with flags. This is a different owner who wasn’t very helpful.
Location was handy to Dettifoss and the included breakfast was fabulous. The rooms were in the hosts house and although small were very comfy and clean. There was only one bathroom for two hosts and four guests. This wasn’t an issue over our two day stay. Had our own space of an evening overlooking the mountains, fields and ponds. The hosts were very respectful of our space. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The eastern side gravel road to Dettifoss and further north was ok to drive in our rented Kia Sportage.

CanadaSigga was friendly and hospitable. She made us Icelandic breakfast. We shared stories and laughter. The house was clean and renovated. It's a few minute drive from the highway on a gravel road with some potholes. It's close to the geothermal area and Dettifoss (waterfall).

ThailandI cannot find the type C power sockets in the room and I forgot to ask for the wifi.
Cozy room in great location when I planned to visit the two sides of Dettifoss. The guesthouse rooms are part of a nice lady and her husband's house, which is lovely. Guests can use the living room and even the kitchen. I like the glasshouse-like living area where we had breakfast. The view is spectacular. The bedroom is clean with comfortable beds. The shared bathroom is kept clean. The homemade breakfast was excellent. I love the smoked salmon and pancake. Plus, staying here also offered a good opportunity to talk to the local people and learn Icelandic culture and useful words.

GermanyWe had a great stay here. Sigga and her husband are very nice people. The place itself is quite remote and thus very clam which we liked. Everything was very clean. Bathroom is well equipped and modern furnished. There are some birds and goose around very close to the house which you can watch from the veranda. Breakfast was great! Pancakes and homemade cake are served :) Wifi was perfect to watch a football game. We were allowed to use the kitchen for cooking and storing a few things in the fridge. Had a great stay here and can really recommend it!

New ZealandSigga was the loveliest, kindest, warmest woman who let us use her kitchen and home like it was our own. Her and her husband were so full of life and love and welcomed us like family. It was like staying with our grandparents and felt like home. She prepared a lovely homemade delicious breakfast and we couldn't have asked for more. 100% recommend staying here if you want to meet lovely people and stay in a warm beautiful home.
