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...).

IsraelBreakfast variety and quantity could be improved. Be aware of gravel road and take the correct path, according to hotel's instructions.
Cozy and quiet place. All guests are required to take off the shoes, so it's really clean and feels as home. Designed with a lot of nice small details. Only 1h drive from/to Hafnarholmi (famous puffin observation point).

GermanyVery modern and cozy Guesthouse, we had a room with three beds and a private bathroom. The house is in the highlands, green, quiet and beautiful. There were sheep around the house and birds in the trees. We bought bread and cheese and a few other things (at Bonus) because we already knew that there is no restaurant near the Guesthouse. And we arrived at a national holiday and a few restaurants in the town nearby were closed. A very nice and friendly Lady from Portugal and an other very nice young Lady welcomed us in the morning at the breakfast. I saw that some people wrote that the breakfast is poor, but I can’t agree with that. We had croissants, Toast and bread rolls, eggs, cheese and vegetables, cereals and yogurt, jam and Nutella, cinnamon buns and more. We had wonderful weather not to cold. I absolutely recommend staying here when you are in the area.

CanadaWe loved our stay in this Guesthouse a lot. We stayed only one night but would love to stay longer. The area is very quiet and the room we stayed in had a spectacular view (we were lucky to watch the best Aurora from our bed 😀).The breakfast was delicious with a good coffee as well. We really recommend to stay here.

United KingdomI was e mailed to ask what time we would like breakfast and stipulated 7.30. All information on the communication states breakfast starts at 7.30. We noticed on a chalk board the following morning breakfast didn’t start until 8am and were told that 7.30 is only in high season. All information should therefore state this. This did not suit our schedule as we had a lot to visit that day. There was someone in the kitchen at 7.30 so we grabbed a rushed breakfast before it was all put out to enable us to leave on time. Please update correct breakfast information.
The property is decorated to a high standard. It is located in a very quiet secluded area. Peaceful stay.

CanadaParking could be an issue if last to arrive. Better signage at guesthouse for parking. Otherwise everything else was wonderful
We loved this property. Best one on our vacation!! The room was lovely, bed comfortable and very clean. Guesthouse is with 7 rooms and very quaint, like a home, remove shoes and leave in the mudroom. It was very quiet we never hear anything and were by the mudroom(entrance). We had a private bath in our room! Coffee, tea and hot water available in eating area. No restaurant near but we knew this ahead of time and brought a light supper with us and ate it there. A full Continental Breakfast was good which was replenished when needed, by the very friendly staff, so there was plenty to eat. It is located in the country, beautiful drive lovely mountains (good gravel road)(take 925 turn off near 917)with a couple of places of interest to see. Stop at the walking bridge to see the lovely canyon and further on way to guesthouse see Gerissradakirka a replica Viking turf Church- amazing. Loved this guesthouse!! We definitely will stay again on our next vacation in Iceland. Thanks so much!

United StatesI didn’t read the check in instructions and went down the treacherous road that was recommended not to go on. The property is in the middle of nowhere and we were concerned our little manual 2x4 wouldn’t make it. This should be more visible ahead of booking the room. Finding the front door was confusing - I thought we were at the wrong location for a bit.
Nice new property. Breakfast was simple, free and decent. Great location for northern lights. We did the ring road and stayed in many guesthouses and hotels. This one was ok.
