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 reviewFantastic location. Perfect for the docks or the city. Excellent facilities. Nice shower room and kitchen.
It’s a basement apartment so there was some evidence of dampness just above floor level although this didn’t affect us.
Thank you for your kind words! We’re happy you enjoyed the location and facilities. We appreciate your note about the dampness and will keep an eye on it.

Verified reviewI stayed at the apartment for a week with my two kids. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, as it is indeed perfectly located. City hall is a two minute walk, from there we were able to get our tour buses for two day south coast and day trip to golden circle easily. Some of the best restaurants are in the walking distance as well. We were also easily able to walk to flyover Iceland and Lava show. There is a covenient store close by from where we could pick up bakery items and toiletteries. I wanted a place with a kitchen or kichenette and this apartment was perfect to warm up hot water in kettle or fix a quick breakfast using the cook top. The rooms are exactly as you see in photos. I liked the bathroom with washer/dryer and towel dryer as we did come back with damp outerwear after our tours. I was able to wash and dry most of our clothes before our travel back and that was super convenient to have on the property. It seems newly renovated with modern amenities so some of the older comments on toilet seat etc are not valid anymore. Also the door was fine to open, I did ask in advance if there was any special trick to it. And the communication throughout my stay was very prompt. You've to punch the key in and immediately move the handle to open with a little force. In time staying in Iceland, Viking power will help with it. I did not have any trouble with it. Also the highlight was the piano in the living room, my son plays the piano, he enjoyed and entertained us with it alot. I truly appreciate the tips on bakery, restaurants and prompt communication by the host.
My only challenge was the television. It didnt work, and with young children it was hard for them to not have any screen time. But we made do with puzzles, games at the property and used my phone at times. I did change remote batteries and the service did come in to check, but was told later the remote needed replacement. So you may want to check if the tv is working before your stay is my additional tip.
Thank you for the lovely review! We're glad you and your kids enjoyed the stay, convenient location, and amenities—especially the kitchen, laundry, and piano. Apologies for the TV issue, and we appreciate your understanding and helpful tip!

Verified reviewLocation and size of the apartment were good
While the location might suit those without a vehicle, I experienced several issues. The initial parking information was inaccurate, and contacting the overseas call center for assistance was difficult. The apartment showed water damage, and nighttime traffic noise was disruptive. The parking situation differed from the listing, with the closest options costing $45 or more per day. Additionally, the dishwasher was full upon arrival, no toiletries were provided, and someone entered the apartment unannounced to clean during my stay. Overall, my stay was unpleasant due to these issues and a lack of responsive service. I won't stay there again as I'm sure there are many other places without these issues.
Thank you for your detailed feedback. We're sorry your stay did not meet expectations and apologize for the parking, noise, and service issues you experienced. We appreciate your comments and will work to address these problems to improve future stays.

Verified reviewApartment was very spacious. Beds were very comfortable (could sleep 6 comfortably, we were only 3 so had loads of space). Shower was amazing, Spacious kitchen, everything you could need for your stay. Location was fabulous, Downtown Reykjavik was in walking distance. Easy access to main road for sightseeing. Not sure we could have stayed in a better apartment. Thanks
Nothing.... Just to note that there are steps down into the apartment but there is a railing so that was helpful for my mother who has some age related mobility issues. There are also steps up to and into the back bedroom, so not suitable for my mother, but plenty of options in the rest of the apartment so it was not a problem. Parking was available outside the door but only for limited periods and also up the street, We used the parking app so that was very convenient.

Verified reviewThe appartment was extremely well equipped with lots of nice little touches
It was almost impossibile to open the front door using the keypad. Once we were inside the lock jammed and we had to use a knife to move the tumblers so we could get out again. Once we were inside and had the key, it was much easier to open and close the front door, but when you first arrive, you have to use the keypad which doesn't open the door properly. The property needs some maintenance, for example, the toilet runs continuously and the bathroom and kitchen windows need replacing.
Hi Alison, Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear that you appreciated the apartment's well-equipped amenities and thoughtful touches.
