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 reviewPrice, interesting structure in pod, self check-in.
Not comfortable, I have booked for a double bed and there were single beds. Bathroom and kitchen could be better in terms of facilities and cleaning. Finally, it's cheap comparing other accommodations in Iceland, but it doesn't worth the price.

Verified reviewThe pods were super cute and cozy and just like in the photos. It was a great little space to come back to at the end of the day to sleep. The toilet was a super short walk and simple with what was needed. We didn't use the shower as we had been at pools/baths as the last part of our days and used the ones there. Awesome bonus of seeing the reindeer when walking to and from the toilet as the reindeer park was right behind the pod. Easy check in with a key box and easy check out as well.

Verified reviewClean property. Unit came with heater and blankets and was dark which is important in summer when always light outside! Linens extra. Kitchen in common area large and well stocked.
There was only one restroom so at times had to wait.

Verified reviewI'm not sure why this place has bad reviews. The pod was clean, warm spacious. There are no linens provided,you have to pay extra but we had sleeping bags. When we arrived there were free linens. The bathroom is old but clean, you can see the reindeer from the bathroom. The kitchen is well stocked and clean as well. The view from the pod is also nice

Verified reviewIf you make Island tour with tent this is a good solution to warm up and sleep comfortable for one night. POD solution is nice and cozy, in the middle of nature and silence. There's also nice big kitchen with living room where you can cook and relax.woth a cupole of tea. We had also the possibility to use the washing machine which is a nice plus in the middle of 11 days tour. Reception staff very gentle
I would suggest to do something on pod's window to seal better because even if we visited Iceland end of June, this week temperature where around 5-6 degree and cold air was going straight to our heads 😀, but for rest everything was comfortable

Verified reviewBang for buck this place was awesome. It was everything I expected it to be. The bathrooms were better than I had hoped; clean, well lit, flushy toilets, shower stall. The adjoining reindeer park was a bonus. The reindeer came to the fence to greet us but appeared annoyed when we were empty handed.
We were there when the weather was 0c. The little space heater in the pod couldn't keep up and the covers were too thin. We slept in our clothes and tried to stay warm all night. Other than cold though, I was thrilled by the place.

Verified reviewVery cozy, exactly what you expect from a camping pod. We loved it especially with the reindeer park next to it. The people running it are incredibly friendly and caring. Would definitely recommend!
The outdoor bathroom was a little dirty and could need some love.

Verified reviewNice camping experience, especially thanks to the nearby reindeer park and the Arctic foxes. Large kitchen. Two bathrooms with shower (in the woods and the main house).
A bit pricey for the offer: we have used nicer huts in more popular areas. The huts were really tiny. The bathroom in the woods put a few people off but it is in fact clean and nice.
