Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

The location was wonderful! At first a little concerned because it was out in the middle of nowhere, but that was the best part of it! The apartment was beautifully decorated and very spacious. It had a nice kitchen area and all the amenities. We were lucky enough to catch the sunset.

United StatesWe are unfamiliar with the induction stove tops used in Iceland, and needed to google instructions on how to get it to work. So instructions would have been helpful, but we were able to google it and figure it out, but that is such a small thing.
We were looking for a place with a kitchenette, quiet, and located on the south coast. We had been on a cruise and it was nice to just be by ourselves in the peace and quiet of that location. Watching the birds, the grass sway, and the scenery made it hard to go out for the day.

United StatesNothing. It was lovely and had everything we needed.
We stayed in multiple different accommodations during our 10-day trip to Iceland and this was one of our favorites. Driving up it looks like you’re pulling up to a farmhouse surrounded by green meadows and a view of the glacier. Inside, we had an absolutely lovely 2-bedroom apartment (for a family of four) with all the amenities you might need. Jon and Edda were always quick to communicate and left great instructions for accessing and checking out of the apartment. The location was just what we were looking for: a short drive to Landeyjahöfn for an early morning ferry to the Westman Islands with easy access to Vik for the following day. We only had two nights here, but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend. We would 100% stay again.

GermanyThere is just one minus point but one that is very relevant - you hear every step from the people above you. One Night our neibours got up 4am so we did. A 10 apart from that.
Very nice and new, great interior. Best quality of all apartments we had. Located just 15-30 minutes away of waterfalls and black sand beach.

SwitzerlandInitially it felt a little bit anonymous but we are sure it was due to the early season with few guests. We missed a small dustpan since we were staying longer and things happen ;) but both are very minor comments, it's pretty perfect overall.
Ideal location to explore South Iceland, very comfortable and well designed appartment including a dish washer and small but cozy armchairs. Great views to Westman Islands (south, small window) and Eyjafjallajökull (north, larger window). We stayed for a week and very much enjoyed the small refresh service (towels etc.) in the middle.
