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.).

United StatesGreat location to downtown. Small but comfortable if you need a place to stay that is centrally located. Also the owner is a lovely person, make sure to stop by the reception and say hi. He was great to talk to and share some of the history of Iceland.

FinlandThe location was a little noisy with cars passing by and the windows were a little flimsy. Sometimes when people come back late, I could also hear the noise.
I like the location, near the bus stop 6 and the cleanliness and responsiveness. Well equipped room. It is everything I needed since I was mostly on day tours and only using room for sleeping and making food :)

IrelandNoise at night - street noise and some from the nearby apartments. Bring earplugs. Stairs up to the apartments (no lift option…that I could see). No deal breakers - just plan ahead.
Excellent location (short 5-7 min walk from numerous bus stops and close to all the main sights), great facilities for small space (fridge, microwave, kettle, towels and toiletries provided), nice and cosy despite the cold outside, seamless arrival arrangements.

IcelandIt was very modern could use more art and decoration perhaps.
Host updated us to Deluxe with more space. We got a phone call immediately after booking and the check in process was super easy. The place was just what we needed. Soap and shampoo were natural and very good.

United KingdomThe road to the North might be a bit noisy if you're a light sleeper (we only noticed it in the mornings).
Very comfortable, centrally located modern apartment, handy to local bus route and adjacent to shopping, restaurants and bars. Hosts were impeccable and very quick to provide extra bedding when requested. Would love to visit again.

GermanyThere is a professional kitchen on the ground floor of the building. So, sometimes you can hear some noises coming from there, especially around the dinner time, but then it stops.
The place is unbelievable good! Right in the center of the city, nearby everything you need. Clean, comfy, well equipped. Ideal for short or long stays in Iceland. Actually I could live there for some time. The access through the digital lockers is pretty safe. Total fair by the price and way better than a conventional hotel. The bathroom was a bonus!

United KingdomThe only issue for me was I couldn't figure out how to turn the heating down in the room. This probably wouldn't be an issue for most people but I like the room cold and to be honest I didn't really look all that extensively. So overall extremely minor issue and was overall a very positive experience.
Staff were very helpful and even came over early to take our bags before check in so we could explore the city. Facilities were clean, comfortable and overall really good. Location could not be better with less than a minute walk to the main street and 2 minutes from the sea front. Everything was within walking distance whether that be restaurants, tour pickups or sight seeing spots. Very pleasantly surprised by the room and would definitely recommend.

Great location. Small but has everything you need for the trip and the kitchen is great to have so you dont have to eat out all the time. We arrived in Iceland before checkin time, we messaged to see if we could leave our luggage and we were told room was ready so could check in early. Staff are super friendly and helpful when they are on site.
