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 reviewI have a problem to review Klettar The Old Hatchery because: - it looks very, very nice and cosy - has space for recreation - it is warm - parking - location - good bed - table and wardrobe in the room - good communication with host - self-check-in, late check-in
But: - the room is very small and combined with kitchen - very difficult to air out (I smelled the food from the previous guest and next day - my breakfast - the bathroom is impossible to air out - if You do the dinner it will be impossible to sleep due to the smell :( - the kitchen is poorly equiped - the space for recreation is for two rooms (I did not know that from the pictures) So generally - difficult to assess. I will book this room again but I understand good reivews.

Verified reviewThe room was small but perfectly fine for a one-night stay while exploring the Golden Circle. The kitchenette was well-equipped and spotless. When we couldn’t figure out how to turn on the stove, we called the property and they helped us immediately - very friendly and efficient. The location is quiet and calm, with just a short drive down a gravel road. A good, restful stop before continuing our journey.
Thank you for your kind words! We’re glad the room and kitchenette worked well for your stay, and happy to hear our team could help quickly. It’s great you found the location peaceful — perfect for a restful stop on your journey!

Verified reviewVery nicely located and easy to reach from different paths whether coming from south or from highlands etc. Possibility to cook very nice. Good communication and easy check-in
The room is a bit small (as indicated by the m2) when you have 2 bags + want to cook and eat. The fridge is quite noisy and as it is right next to the bed, that‘s a bit annoying.

Verified reviewThere is a net on the windows which saved us from midges
The floor was sticky and dirty, it was very unpleasant to walk on it. In the kitchen there are exactly two of everything (two spoons, two plates of two types, etc.) - this is not enough for comfortable cooking even if there are only two people. The bathroom has a very narrow sink, it is impossible to bend over to it because of the hanging cabinet (it would be possible to hang the cabinet on the left and it would be much more convenient). There isn't a single sponge for dishes in the kitchen! It's a good thing I had my own with me

Walls are made of napkins, so you can hear other guests perfectly at 1am. Make a good reason to go knock on their door lol
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We're glad to hear our location served you well for exploring the Golden Circle — it really is a fantastic base for discovering the area! We’re sorry to hear that noise from neighboring rooms affected your stay. While we aim to provide a comfortable and relaxing environment for all our guests, we understand how important sound insulation is, especially at night.

Verified reviewGreat location, kept very clean, the bed was very comfy and not too small, and the colourful lights in the bedroom were a lovely touch. It was quiet throughout our whole stay and felt very homely, we were also very grateful to have access to a fridge, stove and little kettle. Even though we booked the little room it still felt spacious for the two of us.
Access was difficult in the snow and only being able to contact by email was a little bit of an issue on our first night, but we figured it out. Parking can be a bit challenging if the conditions are icy.
