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.).

AustraliaStove wouldn't turn on so the one night we wanted to cook we couldn't, and the microwave wasn't really an alternative.
Roomy studio apartment with kitchen conveniences. Comfortable beds and nice bathroom with heated towel rails. We enjoyed our couple of days here exploring the westfjords, thanks Sunna for being a great host.

United StatesI understand why the bed for a couple was actually two twins put together, but it didn’t make it any more comfortable. I’m also a big tea drinker and didn’t like the plastic electric kettle.
Very comfortable and excellent location. The kitchen is well equipped for simple meals. So nice to self cater!

United KingdomNothing signficant. A washing machine would have been helpful but we just washed some items by hand then used the heated towel rail in the bathroom which worked well.
If wanting to stay on the Drangsnes peninsular this is a great option. Had all the basics for cooking and sleeping in a good space. Downstairs so easy access for moving bags etc. Nice idea to include bathrobes to use at the hotpots, and the entrance hall has helpful information like a map, shop information, and prices for the hot tubs (we actually used the natural one further round the coastline, but the village ones look very handy). Shower was good and shampoo/conditioner/shower gel provided along with good towels. It was nice that Sunna met us when we arrived :) Nice to have a walk around the village and there is a jumping pillow just behind the guesthouse which gives great views. Orange lighthouses in Drangsnes and on Grimsey look beautiful in the setting sun. It was a treat to spot whales from the main window in the fjord one morning (whilst admiring the beautiful view of Grimsey from the window).....we moved the table to the centre of the room so we could enjoy the view whilst eating etc.

New Zealandsimple but completely clean studio apartment with plenty of space for two people. It was warm and had a kitchen that was perfectly adequate to cook a meal. The bathroom was modern with a generously sized shower. There were two bathrobes as well as towels. It was quiet and with parking right outside. The house is up the hill from the harbour and it was a bit cold (snow everywhere) to walk to the hot pools on the shore so we took the car, but I would estimate a 10 min walk in summer.

SwitzerlandI liked the fact that Drangsnes is a bit off the beaten track. For people who expect a bit of nightlife or convenience infrastructure it could be too quiet.
Beautiful little apartment on the 1st floor of the building with a view on the bay. Perfectly clean and really quiet at night. Plus only 5 minutes walk to one of the best restaurants in Iceland.

United KingdomNothing, the property was good
Really pleasant guesthouse. We had a large room with a kitchenette, it had a hob with 2 electric rings, a fridge, toaster, kettle, microwave (we didn't use it) and a coffee maker (again didn't use it as we used our own coffee bags). The beds were very comfortable and the shower was good. Shower gel and shampoo was provided, as were robes to be used if we wanted to go to the local hot pool (which we did). The lady running the guesthouse was very friendly on the one occasion we saw her and made sure everything was to our liking. Wifi connection very strong. Restaurant Malarhorn is within walking distance and serves superb food. We strongly recommend the whale watching with Laki Tours in Holmavik which is about 20 mins drive away.
