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 reviewLocation was great! Near all attraction in the Golden circle
The house was filthy. Upon arrival we made the manager aware of the kitchen that was piled with dishes, dirty sink water and overflowing trash. She said "housekeeping would do a deep clean the following day". House cleaning did nothing except empty the trash and leave the trash bag in the middle of the floor. The shower had brown slime because it didn't drain properly, the bath sink drain had been removed and not replaced, the lighting didnt work. Other repairs needed: kitchen sink had hardly any water pressure and the flue for the range vent had never been completed. Bottom sheets were very pilly and uncomfortable. Windows were dirty

Verified reviewFantastic location with wonderful view over the valley. Short drive to the local attractions including the Geysir, Gullfoss and Bruarfoss. Excellent kitchen (shared) with everything you could need to cook. Shared lounge was also very homely and comfortable. Shared bathroom was spacious and clean.
Nothing! Would highly recommend.

Verified reviewExcellent location, big kitchen (shared), comfortable bed, hot tub with a view
Windows on first floor were high on the wall so we could not see out or appreciate the view. No screens on open windows meant there were loads of flies in the kitchen and dining room. Hot tub needed cleaning. One shared bath for four double rooms was insufficient.

Verified reviewGood location close to everything on the golden circle. The kitchen was well equipped and the room was simple but comfortable.
The flies! There were flies everywhere and they bit you. My sister has multiple bites. It was disgusting to have flies in the bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom. The shower was a trickle of water that took a very long time to get warm; I took a cold shower because I thought it wasn’t going to get warmer. My sister’s shower after mine was warm, so I guess the water eventually got warm. The shower was also not clean; there were clumps of hair on the shower walls.

Verified reviewNot having to interact with people first thing in the morning was refreshing. The views were amazing. Heated floors made for warm toes.
There was confusion upon checking in. We were shown the wrong accommodation. After resolution, we never heard from the owner. It appeared that the owner had just stepped out. Food in the refrigerator, sudoku booklet open on window ledge, dishes on side of sink. there was no explanation of amenities, i.e., coffee, wifi, television, etc.

Verified reviewI booked two deluxe double rooms on the top floor and they messed up our rooms and gave us a two incorrect rooms (one single and one double on the ground floor). We called and messaged but did not receive a response. As a result our family split across two floors

Verified reviewGood location for Golden Circle sightseeing. Kitchen facilities were useful
Shared bathroom on ground floor is one bathroom with a toilet & Shower which has to cater for 4 double rooms. It would be better if the toilet and shower were at least in separate rooms. Shower water was lukewarm and the drain for both shower and hand basin were not working properly.

Verified reviewThe home is beautiful and so is the location and the host was very agreeable. It's very close to really stunning natural beauty such as Geysir and beautiful waterfalls.
My only complaint would be that there's a large living area near the room I was in, so I could hear a large group of people in the morning fixing breakfast.

Verified reviewComfortable bed and room. Great kitchen and plenty of fridge space. Hot spa outdoors available for use anytime.
I really thought I was booking a room with a bathroom, but it was A SHARED BATHROOM. It was a small shared bathroom for three double rooms, no separate toilet. I think most guesthouses have shared bathrooms but they advertise this. The way this is written up is easy to lead you to think it is your own bathroom. The other couple staying at the same time as us also thought they had booked a room with its own bathroom.

Verified reviewThe space and the surroundings was beautiful and comfortable. Although there might be others sharing it was still good enough to catch up with different people. There is some stables there which they allow for you to go and see and maybe have a coffee with the host he is a gentleman. Oh yeah he there is a very exciting friendly dog on site who loves staying outdoors to have fun.. snow or shine he enjoys running around.. honestly a brilliant place to stay and in a perfect location for the golden circle, geysir and the gulfoss falls.
Thank you very much for your visit. We hope to seeing you again soon. The Fellskot guesthouse team
