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):
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.).

There was dust under the bed and the curtain rod was falling down.
The accommodation was as expected and sufficient for one night. We appreciated having both a coffee machine and a washing machine.

United KingdomThe welcome email said that there was free parking at the front and back of the building but this was far from clear. The front had a sign for paid for parking and the back only had bays for other companies and shops. Not clear where we should have parked. In the end we parked 350m away in a designated free parking area.
Like everyone else, the location was perfect. Unlike others we had no problems with the windows. Pleased that there were a few nespresso capsules and milk to make a coiffée.

CanadaKitchen was not stocked with standard items like salt, oil, sugar for coffee, etc. Parking for the apartment was not clearly marked and the host was a bit slow to respond.
Good sized apartment for a couple, maybe even three people. Location is fantastic! Anyone who is complaining about the sulfuric smell of the water - be aware that this is all over Husavik and not just this apartment.

DenmarkSome features seemed a little bit outdated, and the lock in the door was suuuper hard to open. It was also a bit uncomfortable to sleep on the couch and the fact that you had to go through the bedroom to access the toilet. Especially travelling as a group.
It was a really good location and the apartment had what we needed. It was nice that they provided a laundry machine, and I appreciated the thorough message upon arrival.

SloveniaWe got the email regarding check-in info cca 15 minutes after the check-in time (15:00) but we were unfortunately already at the apartment at 15:00 and the owner didn't pick up the phone when called. We did get all the detailed info very soon though so I still highly recommend the place!
Epic location across the road from 2 main whale watching agencies, easy to find and will all the comfort and ammenities you need. The beds (sofa included) are comfortable.

DenmarkIt was very, very hot in the apartment because we were lucky enough to have full sun the two days we were there. The sun was shining in all day and the windows could barely open. There is two very small windows that can open a little bit, and a large window that you can open very little, but then not close again. So the heat in the apartment was way to much. We had to use the curtains to keep some sun out, but that is unfortunate when you want to see the views. The oven was very dirty. The roasting pan was so dirty, that I had to use two pieces of baking papir, because there was so much grease on it.
I spent two nights in this apartement with my son. It is located absolute perfect in town and with a beautiful view of the harbour and mountains. We could walk to a Netto as well and there is a wonderfull bakery close by. The bed was comfortable, the wifi worked fine and the host answers quickly.
