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.).

ItalyJust a couple of small things to note: the TV wasn’t working during our stay, and we weren’t prepared for the sulfur smell from the hot tap water—perhaps a quick heads-up to future guests would help.
We had a lovely stay in this nice and clean apartment, very lightful, good position, cozy and super-soft beds. Useful instructions for sofa-bed, many kitchen tools.

United KingdomThe images are somewhat misleading - there is a lot of development on the hill in front, so the views aren't as good. The volcanic smog, but that was just bad luck! (and would have spoiled the view anyway.) Could do with a bit more crockery, e.g. beer glasses, and kitchen basics like salt and pepper.
A very spacious and well equipped apartment with a full kitchen. Helpful host - her son helped fix the TV very quickly.

GreeceThe house is on a hill in Hvammastangi with other independent houses nearby. It has a comfortable living room with an open kitchen, the bedroom and the bathroom. It was clean and the kitchen had the necessary utensils. The hostess informed us that there is a small river near the house (on the path as we leave the house on the left). It was a very nice walk. It also has a small wooden bridge. The path ends above the village and takes you near an area where there were horses. It is worth the walk. The village also has a wonderful restaurant with very good food.

United StatesThe floor heating in the house would be helpful for travelers who visits in winter, but it takes time to cool down.
I could see the bay on the side window. There was a trail along a creek to the small town. I liked the separate bedroom with 2 twin beds, also the sofa can be converted to a bed. Fyi, the fridge was right size, but it doesn't have a freezer compartment.

GermanyWe stayed here as a family of three adults. Very nice cottage on a hill with view on the sea, car can be parked directly next to the Cottage. Contactless Check-In, excellently organized with a message giving all the details needed in advance. Cottage is spacious, has very good opportunities for storage, a very well equipped kitchen also including a microwave oven, a water cooker and Coffee machine. Two beds in separate sleeping room and a sleeping sofa, well equipped bathroom with easily accessible shower and excellent floor hearing. Everything very clean and very nice contact with the owner.

United KingdomSlight foul smell from drains, which maybe the sewage or could even be the sulfur in the water.
No human interaction for check-in or check-out! Freshly fitted property or at least looked like it, with the development having few other properties that were being built/fitted out. Huge living space in our 1 bed property, with a massive sofa-bed that served as the third bed for our daughter. Kitchen was extremely well fitted out with appliances, coffee machine with powder, microwave, fridge etc. and a spare/utility room that had a couple of clotheslines for drying clothes?? Whole property was underfloor heated, with temperature controls available for comfort. Parking was right next to the property.

PolandI like the location, but the picture of the neighborhood is outdated—there are more buildings around now. I appreciate the resting area and the drying room, as well as the kind of storage that's accessible to guests. Very useful, especially on a rainy island.

GreeceWhile our bedroom was really comfortable, the sofa bed was partially broken and our friends who slept there had to find a way to hold it together so they can sleep. It was also an uncomfortable experience for them.
The location was amazing, so enjoyable to have a meal indoors and watch the sunset. Apartment was really well equipped and clean. One of my favorite places along our trip especially location wise.

Very happy with our stay, it was clean and comfortable and exactly what we needed after busy days and long travel. Lovely view and drove a little to see the seals at Illugastadir which was a lovely added bonus. Located in a lovely area, would recommended and stay here again.

Apartments in a duplex are soundproof, so young kids wont bother the neighbours. The location is good, peaceful, and yet in short walking distance to Town, with good outdoor walking opportunities.
