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.).

IcelandUnfortunately we didn't sleep well, we stayed at a room on the ground floor of the guesthouse and when somebody was talking in the living room it was almost like that person was inside our room speaking. Also when people woke up at 6 in the morning and went down to the bathroom the stairs made so much noise that we woke up. I think it would be good to put up signs in the guesthouse reminding people to be considerate and not make unnecessary noise during certain hours. Everything else we were happy with.
The location is truly amazing, the staff was friendly and the food at the restaurant was good. We really enjoyed the nature and the view (the sunset was amazing) and all of the animals there. The beds were also comfortable.

PolandNothing, it was perfect!
It's magnificent place! If I could I would give 12/10. At the beginning then getting there I thought that we were lost but this small 'village' and the end of the road is so lovely! Some small animals, green grass, event small chapel, surrounding, the sunset! I regret that I could stay there for only one night. The place was clean, well equipped, exactly as in the description.

United StatesSignage from the highway would be helpful.
This place is in the middle of nowhere, but the views are wonderful. The staff could not be nicer. Issue with the big house so upgraded us to separate hotel rooms (THAT's how you handle that situation). Good restaurant and all comes from the farm. VERY relaxing stay. They even have a rescued pet reindeer (Tova) that is friendly. Would not have guessed this as I drove down the road to get there (thought "where in the world am I going....?) but it was idyllic. Thank you!

GermanyGreat stay at this absolute gem 💎 Stunning views and nice open spaces in and around the guesthouse. Easy and friendly check-in. The dogs are playful and friendly - if you are lucky even the reindeer will greet you at arrival ☀️🏔️ Nice and rustic interior design that fits the vibe and the landscape. There’s a love for details, inviting to stay and enjoy some fresh air in the outdoor establishment for a little longer than planned. I’d step by again any time - if not for an overnight stay, then definitely to enjoy some of the home-made lamp meat soup 🤍

United StatesUnfortunately the room was very hot and it was very difficult to sleep for two reasons. First, there was no way to block out the light. Also, the heater was running and keeping the room sauna like despite the warm summer weather, with no way to turn it off.
Amazing location, lots of animals, and very interesting stay.

United StatesWe were upgraded to a larger room, but I suspect that all the rooms would have been great. It was very spacious and we had plenty of room to unload our stuff and relax. The dinner options were also fantastic which is important, seeing as you're pretty much out in the middle of nowhere.

CroatiaThere was some hair in the shower drain, but not a big problem for us.
We got upgraded to a hotel room and it was amazing. The whole property and experience felt truly Icelandic. We were welcomed by a friendly pet raindeer and two dogs. The room was excellent with a great view and it also included a shared kitchen and common area, which we weren't expecting for a hotel room. This was by far our most enjoyable stay in Iceland. Note: If you are coming in the beginning of the season and coming from the east, you'll probably need to take second left to the road 901, since the first one is still closed.
