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.).

The room is a bit small for two big luggage but we managed.
The location is very close by all of the attractions in Myvatn area. We saw the Northern Lights from outside of our cabin! It was an amazing experience! Friendly staff and good breakfast.

We knew to expect midges but perhaps using fly screens on the windows rather than shutters so they could be opened without bugs entering might be nice
A pleasant, light and clean room with a nice bathroom. Great breakfast.

Wish the room can be a bit bigger and maybe less midges (which is pretty common in this area anyway so not for this place to be honest)
We stayed at the room with private bathroom. Room is clean and bed is comfy, I just wish the room can be a bit biggerThe breakfast is simple but good enough considering the price. Location is perfect, where you literally can see lava rocks via your window or kitchen window, next to the lake. Staff are super friendly, I forgot my adapter so asked them before and they remember and lent one to me when we checked in.

Everything was just fine.
We stayed at the B&B accommodation, surrounded by great landscapes. The room was rather small but it had all that we needed. Good, comfy beds and very clean. The buffet breakfast was very good and varied, served right next door to our room. Adequate value for money too in an area that is otherwise very expensive.

Slight lack of sound proofing between the rooms.
Good breakfast and ideal location for exploring the area. Excellent black out shutters and good WiFi in all areas. Useful to have the breakfast area available all day for tea/coffee, reading, spreading out maps etc as room is comfortable but on the small side.

The rooms are very noisy. You could hear everything that was going on in the rooms next to you. The beds are too firm for our liking.
Great breakfast and very nice staff. Pay attention: the check-in is at a separate building on the other side of the road then where you have to go in to get to the bed and breakfast. The pictures look more polished than what it looks like in real life. But, everything you need is there.

The location is beautiful.and close to.all the mayor attractions and restaurants. The room was cute. I like the windows, and it's blinds. It also had an outside table and chair. You have good coffee and tea at all times and the breakfast came with a view of a lava field.
