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 reviewThe style, the size of the room, the comfortable bed, the location.
The lack of amenities: the plates, cutlery, towels, etc are limited in number. We ran out of them after one meal. The lack of simple culinary devices like strainer, grater, etc made cooking a bit challenging.

Verified reviewSpacious room, comfortable bed, hotel location is great (2 min walk to stop #9 for pickup and drop off by attractions and airport transportation buses), city center is just 15 min walk, cleanness of the toilet and room, strong wifi, coffee machine.
It would be great if you could provide a microwave or sandwich maker in the room. It is so difficult to heat everything in the oven.
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the spacious room, comfortable bed, convenient location, cleanliness, strong Wi-Fi, and in-room coffee machine. We appreciate your suggestion regarding a microwave or sandwich maker and will take it into consideration to improve the guest experience.

Verified reviewThe room was amazing. Don’t let the lobby throw you off….it could use some sprucing. Room 310 was perfect. Unfortunately there is a restaurant in the building that makes the hallways smell like French fries all of the time, and whoever was above me seemed to be doing laps around the room constantly until after midnight for the first 4 nights…..or maybe they were playing basketball????
Smell of fried food, the lobby needs some care, all of the room doors and floor fire doors slam loudly and could use some softening so the banging is reduced when people are going in and out. The room could use a microwave.

Verified reviewThe room was modern, comfortable and very clean. It had a nice view of the square and big windows. Doors with code, no keys and quite secure as the building had entrance and floor doors with code also. It is placed in the center of the city close to shops, seashore and sightseeing.
The room had no cleaning service for the 8 nights we stayed. This is something that was not mentioned in the booking site. There was no equipment if you wanted to do it by yourself (a mop and a bucket maybe). On the phone they said that we should pay an extra cost if we wanted cleaning, towels or change our bed sheets. After our complaints they said that they would change our towels once. Unfortunately as we were busy all day ( work and vacation) we never reminded them to change the towels, and they never did it by themselves. There was no wardrobe , just a rack with 2 hangers. Also the booking description referred to toiletries and paper rolls. But in the bathroom there was only a big, almost empty, bottle of shampoo/shower gel and a soap dispenser for the hands. No conditioner, no body lotion, no cotton buds ,no shower cap or toothpaste. So "toiletries" was an empty bottle. Regarding paper roll, there were 2 rolls. When we spoke on the phone to complain about toiletries they also informed us that these rolls were provided for 8 nights! 2 person, 8 nights , 2 rolls!! After our complains they gave us 2 more rolls! Generally, I find it ridiculous to beg for toilet paper.
Dear Konstantina, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We are pleased to hear that you found the room modern, comfortable, clean, and well-located with secure access. However, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the lack of regular cleaning services during your stay and the limited toiletries provided. We understand how important these amenities are for a comfortable visit, and we regret any misunderstanding regarding the additional cleaning fees and supplies. Your comments about the wardrobe and toiletries have been noted, and we will review our descriptions and offerings to ensure clearer communication and better guest experience in the future. We appreciate you bringing these matters to our attention, as it helps us improve. Thank you again for your honest review, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back with a more seamless stay. Warm regards, Dina

Verified reviewLocation was great. Close to bus stop 9 which is useful for tours or getting the bus to the airport. The apartment was clean and modern. The keyless entry worked perfectly.
We booked the apartment because it had a kitchenette. When we arrived we realized the apartment just had a hob. There was no oven or even microwave oven which really limits the options for cooking. Also, only 2 small toilet rolls were left in our apartment for our 6 day stay so we needed to purchase more. There is no cleaning service so the towels left at the beginning of our stay were not replaced and there was no means to clean them.

Verified reviewThe location is great, all walking distance to the downtown area, close to restaurants and stores. The size of the room and bathroom is excellent. The room was clean however, one of the pillows was dirty.. The rooms look nice and renovated but the building is old. There's no free parking, and paying for parking every day/night can get expensive. It looks like this is the norm for downtown Reykjavik.
There is no front desk, no room cleaning, no additional toiletries, got a dirty pillow. Parking is not included. Paying for parking every day can get expensive. Rooms are nice and renovated, but the building is old.
Thank you for your detailed review. We’re happy to hear you liked the location and appreciated the room size and cleanliness overall. We apologize for the issue with the pillow and any inconvenience caused by the parking situation.

If you put in a workout room, that would be great. I didn't see laundry facilities but those would be nice as well. But that doesn't distract from what a nice experience this room was to book and utilize.
