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.).

GreeceThere was nothing not to like!
Lovely place overall. Wonderful peace and quiet. The room had very good space and facilities. The owners make a great effort to anticipate your needs and cover them. Vik is a 15 minute drive. So is Reynisfjara beach and Durholay lighthouse.

United KingdomAs a light sleeper, on the first night the fridge was very noisy. I often have to unplug them in hotels and guest houses at night... On the second night, I did not hear it due to hurricane Erin!
Spacious and clean, well equipped. Ideal location to explore the region, good views. Easy to locate and well back off the road #1 to be peaceful.

United StatesBed wasn't the most comfortable, but was tolerable, and the water pressure was less than some of guesthouses we've had this trip
Convenient location right off the Ring Rd, a short distance to Vik and the turns for both Reynisfjara Beach and Dyrhólaey. Snug studios as described, fast wifi, small but efficient kitchenette. Hosts found our son's missing camera and called us immediately, which was very kind of them!

AustraliaRan out of hot water (my fault i had a long, very hot shower). Bed was a little firm but comfortable enough. We had great neighbours but I have a feeling if they were noisy, you would hear them quite a lot.
Beautifully situated, easy to navigate to and gorgeous farm animals to say hello to. Very warm and comfortable layout. Good places to put bags. Plenty of wall sockets. The dog from the house was so sweet and friendly.

United StatesThere was no microwave, which was not a downside for me, but I wanted to let you all know. But that honestly was not that big of an issue. There was no washing machine, which was slightly inconvenient, but this can be planned around.
The location was perfect and the guest house was very clean. It was a great size and very comfy. The shower was very nice, and the bathroom was nice and large.
