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 are 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 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):
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.
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.).

Beautiful location, lots of birdlife near the lighthouse. The communication with Margret was great! She provided all the necessary information a few days before our stay so everything was clear and easy. We enjoyed a quiet night before our early flight next morning. Thank you so much!

AustraliaWe had a problem unlocking the door upon arrival and needed assistance from the host. It was quite distressing after a long flight.
The cottage was nicely decorated and reasonably well appointed for a self-catering stay. The location was perfect for exploring the Reykjanes Peninsula by car and was about 10 minutes’ drive from the large supermarkets of Keflavik. It was very peaceful and close to the lovely walking trail to the lighthouse.

SpainWe loved the location because we needed a place close to the airport to spend our first night before continuing our road trip. The check in was contactless and went smoothly. We arrived so late that we also saw the northern lights. Thank you for the coffee capsules. Very quiet with plenty of parking.

BelgiumThe sofa bed is kind of hard and maybe to small for two children. Maybe the appartment is ideal for 3 instead of 4.
The location, nearby the airport and in a very nice neighbourhood to go for a walk. Very clean appartment, the owners are super friendly and inform you very well.

FinlandWhile everything is perfect, the place itself is not particularly "idyllic" or "characteristic".
A spacious apartment with easy self check-in, peaceful location close to the sea and easy drive to the airport. Modern, perfectly clean and well maintained "no frills" kind of place.

United KingdomNot sure if the location (probably as near sea) but OMG the wind all night i thought my car was gonna blow away. Not the fault of the hosts tho :-) The bathroom smelt once used. No smell when we arrived but we had a shower and used the toilet and then a sewage type smell lingered. Had to keep the door shut but im not overly fussed and still rate the accommodation it’s cute. The tele was fab but i could only get it in one language and it english. Probably user error but luckily i brought my fire stick which i could switch out for the evening x
Absolutely gorgeous little apartment. Easy access. Close to airport. Cute tea coffee section. TV. Comfiest bed i’ve ever slept on. It’s weird because it’s firm but soft and it’s like it took me as its prisoner. Loved the bed.
