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.).

IcelandThe beds are very uncomfortable as the springs in the mattress could be felt when laying in it. The material of the duvet covers was also uncomfortable.
The staff is very polite and helpful. The refrigerator is huge so I could keep all of my food cool. The room was spacious and the location of the guesthouse is very central in Höfn.

Czech RepublicThe room was clean and the shared facilities were perfectly fine for our stay. The kitchen was very well equipped, which made things easy. It’s conveniently close to Netto supermarket, so grabbing essentials was simple. One thing to note: noise carries from the kitchen, so if you have noisy neighbors staying up late, you might hear everything. Overall, a good place for one night while passing through.

AustriaWe had a room with two single beds and the room was way too small. It was quite difficult and annoying to get to the bed close to the window and it was generally difficult to move around. While the beds were comfortable, they were also too small. There were two shared bathrooms on our floor. One of them was very modern. Unfortunately, one of the bathrooms was out of toilet paper in the morning and there was no spare TP in the bathroom.
Great location in Höfn with a view of Vestrahorn. Easy no contact check-in. There is a kitchen in the common area with access to free coffee and a refrigerator.

CanadaThe kitchen was very compact (crowded with 2 ppl) and only a bar with 2 bar seats to eat. There were only 2 small bathroom/showers for all the guests. Apparently the main building is bigger and has more, but you have to walk across the parking lot to get there.
Close to the harbour and restaurants.

LithuaniaIt's a bit old guesthouse, so you can tell things are a bit worn down, the kitchen wasn't necessarily the cleanest, the beddings were a bit cheap and the pillows clumpy. Two shared bathrooms can become super busy in the evening and there was quite a line up.

FinlandThe price for one night was total rip off for what you paid. We’d read some horrible reviews about the place but everything was just fine. The walls were thin but like I said earlier all the guests respected each other and weren’t too noisy. The guesthouse felt more like a hostel and I know that tidiness etc depends so much who is there with you. There was someones hair in the shower and in the sink and that was pretty nasty. The microwave in the kitchen was also pretty nasty and the kitchen wasn’t clean.
Accommodation was ok for one night. But that’s about it, didn’t really want to spend there more time that was needed. The room was good and the kitchen had all the necessities. The renovated bathroom was nice and there was always space in the kitchen and in the bathroom. The other guests respected each other and were quiet etc.
