Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

Czech RepublicModern and smells like new. Close to the main road. The stunning view. The only one cottage in Iceland that had a good enough size for us. The rest were too small. Good coffee machine like at home.

Pretty bungalow, well decorated and comfortable, it's small but there's everything you need. It's located in a very quiet place just outside Blonduos. It's a pleasure to stay here and we wish our stay was longer.

Great location with sweeping views over amazing landscape. Cabin is comfortable, well located and well furnished and appointed. Everything you need for your stay. Weather was terrible the night I stayed, but didn't hear or feel a thing; was able to sit in the comfort and warm and watch it snowing outside in a gale. Cozy, and a great feeling. Super clean, well designed, easy to check in / out and I would definitely stay again.

There is no check-in, you just get sent a key box code. The location is outside of town, get all your supplies before arriving.

CanadaThe cottage is lovely but small - that wasn't an issue for us, it was just the right size for two travelers, but larger groups might be a bit tight.
The view from the cottage was amazing. Everything was very clean and orderly when we arrived. The booklet for the cottage was very helpful. When I needed something, the owner was very quick to respond and very helpful.

We greatly enjoyed this property; everything was very modern and brand new (or at least it seemed that way). Fantastic location. Our only regret is that we arrived a bit late to fully enjoy it and only stayed for one night. It truly deserved a longer stay. Our only suggestion is to add a hot tub (even if shared with the other two cottages); it would be the cherry on top. Nevertheless, it's already idyllic as it is.

United States of AmericaNot much I didn’t like. Coffee maker instructions were valued. I would definitely stay again. Haven’t showered yet as I am enjoying the fjord view while drinking coffee.
We were able to find the place with google maps, after initially missing the Brekkukot sign. Instructions received about check in and facilities were clear and great. Nice little cottage with a view. We were able to watch the Aurora last night with mostly clear skies and really big windows facing most directions.

United States of AmericaOnly complaint, and it's not just here but Ive noticed the pillows at many of our accommodations are a bit flat to my liking and would wake up with neck cramps. Otherwise, no complaints!!!
The views right outside our front door were beautiful. We had the privilege to catch a sun set and just beautiful, peaceful, quiet views all around us. Sheeps and horses just feet away. The cottage was cozy, cute and had our basic necessities. If we were staying in that part of Iceland longer, it would have been an ideal location! Thankfully though, we were able to stay 2 nights on our journey around the country. The second day, I developed a pretty bad headache and was unable to find medication, it was so easy to communicate with host (who lives not too far away) and she provided me with some. Even had the chance to chat with her for a bit. Very sweet and kind! Fairly close to town and restaurants nearby. Hotel Blondous had delicious food! Went both nights of our stay.
