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 reviewLocation was perfect for downtown and the bus terminal. Layout of the apartment was great. Very clean, inviting and comfortable.
Parking was horrible. If you don't park your vehicle prior to 5 pm, good luck. Thankfully there was a hospital at the end of the street, and they didn't tow the vehicle.

Verified reviewThe washer/dryer was an issue. Unless you put the setting on for a 30 minute wash it took up to 6 hours to wash and semi dry! It never really did completely dry your clothes.

Verified reviewThe apartment is very central, only 5 min walk to the church and very close to a supermarket on the main shopping street in Reykjavík. The apartment was exceptionally clean and well designed with high spec kitchen white goods and all the equipment needed to self cater (which we did a lot as eating out was so expensive!) The code made entry and exit very easy. Access to different tv channels was also great. The beds were very comfortable and it was warm in the apartment. Communication with the owners was excellent.
We thought the sofa could perhaps be a bit more comfortable. The lounge was a little awkward when seating four people. Another shelf in the oven would have been useful.

Verified reviewThough the apartment was compact, it never felt small. It was still spacious. The location was perfect and just a 5-7 minute walk from the BSI terminal and about 10 minutes from town. We also had a bus stop just a few minutes away, however, we walked to most places including towards the harbour etc. As for the apartment itself, it was fully equipped in every aspect. The kitchen had everything, as did the bathroom. The beds were comfortable and living area had enough seating for the long days out to come back and lounge in. Our host, Jonas answered any and all queries in reasonable time and afforded us a stress-free experience. It really was the perfect combination of location and quality. Highly recommend that future travellers consider this place for their stay.
Nothing really, just a tea-towel/hand-towel rack for the kitchen. Makes a difference.

Verified reviewThat it was equipped with everything you would need. Next to the BSI bus terminal which is easy for tor pickups. 10 mins walk to the main street. Jonas ensured that the cupboard was stocked with detergents/ herbs/ spices/ towels and bath amenities. He thought of everything. I would highly recommend for families.
It's away from the restaurants and bars of Reykjavik as this is an apartment in a residential area. So if you want quiet, yes but if you want to be in the centre and bar hopping and restaurant eating then it is not convenient. What I did not like was that bookings.com did not charge my card but the owner called me to tell me we could charge the transaction over the phone. That's dangerous when a stranger calls you up and says can I charge your card for the booking. We eventually arranged for him to come to the apartment in the evening but am inconvenienced as I had to eish back to ensure he could come and I charged my card.
The best way is just to pay through booking.com then we don´t have to disturb our guests with paying. But of course nice to meet our guests Jonas

Verified reviewThe beds and bedding were comfortable and kept us warm and cozy as the weather began to turn colder. The place had everything that we needed as a base from which to explore Iceland. The hosts were informative and friendly. Definitely take their advice on where to dine and experience the geothermal pools. The food was amazing and the pool experience much more low-key than more popular (and overly expensive) places.

Verified reviewThe apartment was very clean and had great facilities included. Great central location 8 minutes from the bus station and 10 minutes into the main town center.
It's hard to find anything not to like other than the parking included is on street parking, it does get difficult to park once most people come home from work.

Verified reviewThe apartment was spacious, bright, very clean, and modern. Great location near the main transport route and just a few steps from the city center. Perfect amenities. Easy and free parking. The only thing to get used to is that the apartment is more or less on the ground floor, and the windows are large. So, you need to be aware that if you open the vertical blinds, the apartment might be visible from the street. I can recommend the stay.

Verified reviewFantastic apartment in a quiet neighborhood! The beds are big and comfortable. In walking distance to downtown Reykjavik and Hallgrimskirka (Church Tower). Supermarkets in walking distance and believe me, those supermarket sandwiches are good! The apartment has everything you need (towels and linen provided). There is a stove, microwave, dishwasher, laundry, and nespresso machine. Truely a home away from home
There is nothing my family didn't like. Would stay again and again and again.
