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 reviewNice view (if you are lucky and have a room facing pastures). Else you would see parking
We booked a family room with bathroom. What we got was a mini room wlith wc and sink.. there was NO SHOWER. There was no equipment at all except very narrow and soft bed and a creaky bunk bed. 1 wall hager and that it. It was very cold on shared premises (kitchen and halls) The wall are so tiny you hear everything happening in other rooms. Shared kitchen has weak air-conditioning so the onion cooked by other couple was smelly all over.Consoderring how expensive it was the value for money is ZERO.

Verified reviewThe rooms, bathrooms, and showers were spotless. The beds were incredibly soft and comfortable, and our room even had its own sink, which was a nice touch. We enjoyed a beautiful view from our window, and the temperature inside was always perfectly cozy. The shared kitchen and lounge area created a welcoming community feel, so it made the whole stay even more enjoyable.
It did feel a bit expensive for not having private bathrooms and showers in our room. We knew ahead of time that they were shared, but still felt the price was a bit high for that. Also, the location isn’t walkable to restaurants or stores, though it’s close enough to drive 13 min to Vík and about a 5 min drive to Reynisfjara, the famous black sand beach.

Verified reviewGreat location for the start of a road trip. The shared kitchen allowed us to freeze water for a cooler and save on expenses with homemade food. The location provided quiet nights with close proximity to the ocean yet close to available activities in Vik.
We stayed for two nights and on the second day they were paving the parking lot and it made it not possible to access our rooms. We made plans to come back for lunch that day and change attire but that was not possible. Not the end of the world but a heads up would have been greatly appreciated.

The common area, kitchen in particular was not very clean. There were a group of spanish guests who were very loud. The price for the facilities was way to high. Considering the shower was not in the room!

No sound proofing, very noisy. Not due to people being rude but just from normal activity. I had a room that included a bathroom but it is very tiny and hard to move around and it doesn't include a bath or a shower Room is small
