Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

United StatesThe location was great, walking distance to all the Reykjavik attractions. The first day we didn't even use the rental car. You have to walk though the main bedroom to get to the kids bedroom, so it is not private. There were plenty of utensils to cook with. I easily made breakfast. There were plenty of great dinner options near by. The hosts live onsite. The main door gains access to 3 units including the host's upstairs. The hot tubs is filled on request so planning is required, and they want to empty it by 2000, so getting back to use it sometimes felt rushed. There is a washing machine that had a note not to use it after 2000, also pretty early for a family spending the day out doing activities. I did ended up doing laundry in the morning. The cycle was fast enough that i could do a load while making breakfast, and another one before leaving for the day, and drying it when we returned in the evening. There is an outdoor cloths line to use, and an indoor drying rack. things dried pretty quickly near the radiator. The toilet has low head clearance, and was uncomfortable for my tall husband to use. There are nice throw blankets and plenty of towels to shower with. We brought bathrobes and towels for the hot tub. The 4 of us stayed 3 nights, the kids are 8 and 11. The fees (that I didn't notice when booking) were about $200. They don't use a linen service, so that would be a lot of laundry between guests. Some of the closets were locked, but we put out luggage under the kid's beds, and were able to unpack our cloths into draws in the kid's room and hang up our coats. There was sealed food, soap, feminine hygiene products and other things left by past guests, which is nice if you didn't have have your own. Everything was clean. The code to the lock box wasn't in the arrival instructions, but the host met us at the door within probably 10 minutes of me messaging them. The location was the best feature of this place.

Perfect location, convenient to walk to shops and restaurants and explore town. Street parking was easy with the Parka app. The apartment was especially clean and well organized for our family. We loved the style of the unit as well. Hosts were kind and welcoming and available when needed. We loved the hot tub after a long day trip to Vik. We would definitely stay here again! Thanks for the hospitality.

United StatesIt was great. Cleaning fee made it a bit expensive for just two nights. But it’s a big place.
The property is walkable to all of the fun stuff. The hosts were wonderful and helped with dinner reservations at an amazing restaurant. The hot tub is fantastic and made relaxing after walking everywhere so easy. The hosts left us wine and there was fruit and breakfast items too. We were there with kids - a room with a door to close for them was great. We loved it. I would come back in a heartbeat. We found parking without trouble the whole time. We saw northern lights by walking a few blocks to the church. It was all fun and easy.

United StatesLike the vast majority of properties in Reykjavik, the warm/hot water has an odor. I had read about it before booking, so that’s on me. That said, we didn’t shower, so don’t think I’d stay longer.

AustraliaThe second bedroom was through the main bedroom which was a little inconvenient but workable. The bathroom ceiling sloped which was troublesome for the men for the toilet but workable.
A cute little apartment right in the old city within walking distance to shops and attractions. Our host gave us a bottle of wine on arrival which we couldn't buy on a Sunday so it was a treasure to receive. The apartment was tastefully appointed and a home away from home.

The very nice owners were helpful. It was nice having them in the apartment above. Nicely decorated, comfortable, cozy. Beds are quite comfortable . Room with 2 singles is small but fine for our 2 adult kids. Walking distance from bus station, and many of the Rekyjavik attractions. If we stayed in Rekyjavik again this would be our first choice for lodging.

United StatesI'm not sure there was anything we didn't like. I would only say that the bathroom is small, but certainly no smaller than most European accommodations.
We had a wonderful time at this apartment! There is plenty of space, the kitchen was easy to use, the hosts were welcoming and helpful, and the location was perfect. It is 2 short blocks to the main heart of Reykjavik and we had a wonderful time both in the city and returning home to the apartment. Plus, parking was super easy even though it is so close to the main center! Highly recommend this apartment for a family of 4.
