Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

EstoniaI like the whole concept - little lovely private houses as a room to stay. Shared kitchen and bathrooms, all very well equipped and clean. Comfortable to use. The place is located near airport, which was the main reason we chose this place. It was clear that for others it was the same. At 8.30 in the morning all the cars had left already and we had a nice private breakfast :) They had a hot pool as well but not in use. Maybe it's used in a summertime? Would have loved to have a nice morning dip there but they have a collaboration with local pool for their guests instead. We didn't have the extra time to go there, would have enjoyed the quick dip in the premises.

United States of AmericaThe kitchen is in a separate building. No coffee/tea maker in the room. One has to go to the kitchen to get water.
The location is good, very close to the airport. We had an earlier fight, so this place serves the purpose. Also the shared kitchen has everything one needed to make a simple meal.

United States of AmericaThe taxi driver had a hard time finding it. I would recommend not to take this place past a certain time at night and with a family. It is very stressful not to find it even with a driver who speaks Icelandic. Took us some up to 20 mns to find it after 1:30 am. I would recommend checking with the taxi dispatcher of KEF Airport to ensure the driver knows where they are going before getting on taxi. Other than this inconvenience, it is an excellent place to stay. Next time , I will know exactly where it is.
The place is awesome, I wish we had more time to enjoy it more. The owner was very kind to take 2 calls as we had a hard time finding the place. It had snowed, so this made it more challenging to find it, and GPS was not very helpful either. Navigator may send you to Camping place, which is right next door to "iStay Cottages". On a clearer day, you should see it if you stand on the camping place parking area. Drive up the road ( street address) and take a left. You will then see the sign I Stay ( may need to be iluminated during the night or inclement weather for easy spotting).

FranceDuring my recent stay at iStay Cottages, I appreciated particularly : - The meticulous cleanliness and excellent upkeep of the cottages - The well-equipped and spotless shared kitchen, facilitating easy meal preparation - The inviting BBQ area, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the scenic surroundings Overall, my stay at iStay Cottages was truly delightful, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a comfortable, affordable, and tranquil retreat in Sandgerði. iStay Cottages stands out as an excellent choice for travelers seeking a tranquil and affordable accommodation in Sandgerði. The cottages' cozy charm, convenient location, and friendly atmosphere make it an ideal base for exploring the diverse landscapes and attractions of Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula. It is worth to mention the convenient proximity to the beach, harbor, and an array of restaurants and shops. 👍
