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.).

United KingdomOne of the mattresses was uncomfortable (we booked 2 rooms) but the other was beautifully comfortable. We were lucky to have other quiet considerate people staying as we were all sharing the same place, I guess inconsiderate loud guests could have affected our stay.
We were made very welcome and shown around pointing out towels we could borrow if we needed to take them out, fresh coffee we could use and spotless bathrooms. It is set in the countryside and was a great base for visiting lots of wonderful places. We felt very much at home there, thank you

some basic breakfast such as jam, bread & cereal etc are available in the morning but nothing fancy. the host was there to greet everyone during check in time who also gave travel tips as a local.

AustriaIt was all great :) An oyster catcher was guarding two eggs directly in the driveway which i did not like since i felt sorry for the little bird. So keep a look out when approaching ;)
The place was very clean and the owners were exceptionally helpful and friendly to us the entire four night stay. The kitchen was the best equipped compared to other hostels, guesthouses and apartments we visited on our 3 week trip in iceland. The breakfast also featured the most variety compared to other places we stayed. There are two different thermal pools close by and the main attractions of the golden circle are also very close. Of course the size of the room corresponds with the price you pay. But other than that you get exceptional value for your money. For people with more time on their hands there is plenty of beauty to be found on the property of the Bed and Breakfast itself (see pictures). Just ask the more than helpful hosts (Silke and Stefan) for directions.

FranceThe room was a bit small with separated beds
This my preferred solution for vacation: large house with separated bedrooms, but shared kitchen and living room Here is a perfect example, you have all you need to cook, and we enjoyed a lot discussing with other guests. Very quite place and very nice host as well

SloveniaLovely place in a quiet and secluded location close to two hot springs and the golden circle route. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking, and the abundant self-service breakfast is great. Clean, comfortable beds, the hand towels in the shared bathrooms are a lovely touch. Friendly hosts.

GreeceRooms are small and very close to one another. There is not much space, it was full of people and it was a bit difficult to move around in the kitchen, sit relax and have diner. Also lots of noise, everyone is talking etc. There was almost no breakfast (unless other guests ate everything 🤣). It is expected of course, you get what you pay. Just Keep those things in mind. Other than that all gold.
I like the price! The cheapest room we booked in Iceland. The girl that greeted us was very friendly. It's like a mix of guest house and hostel. If you don't have much expectations you will be fine ☺️ Very nice beautiful farm location to have a short night rest. It has a kitchen, 2 shared bathrooms with hand soap, shower and big parking space outside. Easy access, check in. Room was warm. Clean sheets and towels. For a short budget friendly stay in a warm place, close to points of interest I do recommend it!

United StatesDue to a family crisis, I didn't make it to Iceland this time, but my friend stayed here and sent this for the review "Skyggnir was good! It was not high class but a little more old fashioned. However, it was comfortable, very well organized and tidy, very close to the hot springs. I greatly enjoyed meeting and chatting with other people from around the world there. It was a neat experience."
