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 reviewGood location. Kitchen was convenient, well equipped and not too crowded.
WiFi did not work at all. Laundry was disappointing since it was in constant use by staff doing sheets and towels.

Verified reviewComfortable beds, really nice shared kitchen, friendly host, good location beside a walk to a waterfall and lots of other hiking trails and short walk into the town. Had great dinner in Skaftkell. Use of laundry facilities for free a great bonus
Walls were fairly thin and could hear someone snoring in the next room. Was so tired from all the sightseeing I slept through but might bother a light sleeper. Bring earplugs

Verified reviewGreat location, right in town.
Bathrooms & showers weren’t kept exceptionally clean by the other guests sharing the guest house.

Verified reviewLocation was great, nice quaint town. Room was comfortable.
Doors don’t close quietly. One room was adjacent to entry, and got loud banging every time someone entered, but during quiet hours it was mostly quiet.

Verified reviewWe enjoyed our stay. We rented a room for 4, which was not spacious, but we knew it from the pictures. It was comfortable, and quiet. The common kitchen and "breakfast / dining room" was great, and very well equiped. Thanks to the team !

Verified reviewlovely place. location also nice with waterfall outside and water on the other side. kitchen was great (with free coffee!) provided bathrobes (as well as towels) - which was convenient as we were in a room with shared bathrooms
that I didn't have much time to enjoy the location we got here quite late and left early as our trip the next days had a fair bit of driving powerpoints were difficult to access (especially as I need one at night for medical treatment) and a bit far from the bed. Luckily I had an extension cord with me.

Verified reviewVery well equipped kitchen, probably one of the best we encountered on our trip. Room quite small but adequate for our one night.
Better if doors could be changed so they don't bang when guests leave them to close. Were quite noisy in the night.

Verified reviewThis place was awesome! Shared bathroom was very nice and clean. Shared kitchen was well stocked and big enough for multiple families to prepare food. We were greeted by a very friendly gentleman and the other guests were very nice. The one thing that really stood out was how comfortable the beds are. This is 1 of 12 places we Stayed and it was a good value. I would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend. 5⭐️
We loved everything

Verified reviewVery clean property, and friendly staff. You can help yourself to hot drinks from the machine in the kitchen. Shared areas were all very clean also. We were able to do some laundry there also, which was very handy. Great location right on the water front in pretty Seydisfjordur. Rooms were bright and comfortable.
As with all places in Iceland in summer months, you will pay a high price versus the equivalent elsewhere, however that’s no fault of the property or country. It is what it is ☺️

Verified reviewLast minute booking was well accomidated and staff were very helpful and willing in trying to assist me with further bookings. Facilities very neat and clean, loved the shared kitchen/dining room where you can store in fridge and cook. Very clean and modern ensuite bathroom.
Black-out curtains didn’t work fully so room was very bright during the night (midnight sun). Mentioned this to owner who said that further curtains will be set up soon. Prices are also a little high compared to other places if you are traveling solo.
