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 reviewI loved that we had our own shower in the room! The beds were also very comfy and the place was clean
The only thing that was less than great was the fact that it was a little far from food options on foot. Any food options are about a 20 minute walk away

Verified reviewOwners are lovely. Room was spacious. Taxi organised by the owners was appreciated. Great buffet breakfast which started early.
It was incredibly noisy. We were near the lift, stairs and common area so didn’t sleep a wink as people were loud, doors banging luggage being dragged up and down stairs and hallways at all hours. One family left their screaming child in the hallway for about 10 mins in the middle of the night! We left feeling exhausted. Ask for a room down the end of the hallways.

Verified reviewExcellent breakfast with lots of variety. Breakfast opens very early morning allowing guests to have breakfast before early morning flight which is very impressive. Staff were helpful and room was clean, comfortable and tidy.
The location of the property is within short drive from airport however it’s not walkable.

Verified reviewProximity to the airport as we had a late night arrival. Easy check in. Friendly staff. Excellent breakfast
Although the sheets were clean, one had stains on it. Otherwise, the room was clean and was fairly large

Verified reviewSimple, no-frills hotel with spacious rooms—perfect for an overnight stay before a flight. The staff were friendly and helpful, with a super quick and efficient check-in and check-out process. Breakfast starts as early as 4am, and the airport is just a 7-minute drive away.
Not much

Verified reviewThe dorm was rather large and very clean. Bed, table, locker — nothing fancy, but quite good for a night. The bed is comfortable. The kitchen and recreation rooms are also large and well equipped, reception was helpful getting me a taxi. Breakfast is served starting very early and has more options than I expected at this price.
While "Start Keflavik Airport" is just beside the airport as seen on the map, it is still a 10-minute drive or ISK 5000 taxi ride (or 7km walk). Public transport is very scarce and non-existent on Sundays.

Verified reviewVery attentive staff, Sìmon in particular. Rooms were comfortable and clean, if barebones, and the storage lockers were helpful. Breakfast was pretty good!
Airport transfers were absurdly expensive given the short distance. Convenient to get to the airport but awkward to get anywhere else. Expensive for what was offered, though in line with Reykjavik prices.
