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 StatesFree WIFI,but no information on password. I had to spend 33 minutes on the phone (not cheap) with Bookings.com to try to get them to find the password as the owner did not answer his phone. I needed the internet to check in for our return flight. No instructions on how to work the TV, and the washer and dryer were both filled with laundry, so unusable for us! That was one of the reasons I booked this apartment in the first place, so that was disappointing. Owner was very nice but he needs to leave instructions for using internet and TV and also needs to make sure the washer and dryer are available to use. Thankfully the girl hired to clean the unit was able to show us how to get the keys and open and lock the door correctly.
A very nice, clean spacious apartment. A small grocery store was right around the corner. Close to a bus hub, which would make it easy to get to places. We were only there 1 1/2 days, and we were gone on an 11 hour excursion the second day, so we didn’t have time to explore the area more. We did walk to the Perlan museum which had many great exhibits and was very interesting in learning about all the natural wonders of Iceland!

United KingdomNot an issue, but it took a few goes to figure out the front door. It does have instructions and is very easy once you know how it works!
Great apartment with comfortable living space and bedroom. The kitchen had everything needed for a few days' stay. The location is good, close to bus stops, shops, and the bus stop (12) that many of the tours depart from. Wifi good. Balcony with views of mountains was nice to watch out for aurora as faces north.

United KingdomOnly minor things which definitely did not spoil our stay. Given the choice, I would have swapped the balcony for a second bathroom/WC especially given the number of guests it can accommodate, but we coped so not really an issue. Overall, it's excellent value and highly recommended
Location is excellent, walking distance to local restaurants, shopping and groceries. Walk a bit further and you can easily get to the coast and the harbour on the north side of Reykjavik but it's a little too far for the Grotto lighthouse so you'll need a car for that. It's warm, well decorated and with lots of storage and space. Bonus is you get a secure underground parking space too.

The apartment is just amazing. Super centrally located, a bonus supermarket 3 minutes away, the famous church 10-15 minutes walking distance. We had an underground private parking. The beds were super comfortable, and everyone had privacy and enough room. The furniture is beautiful.
