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...).

SwedenThe lack of amenities: the plates, cutlery, towels, etc are limited in number. We ran out of them after one meal. The lack of simple culinary devices like strainer, grater, etc made cooking a bit challenging.
The style, the size of the room, the comfortable bed, the location.

United KingdomSmell of fried food, the lobby needs some care, all of the room doors and floor fire doors slam loudly and could use some softening so the banging is reduced when people are going in and out. The room could use a microwave.
The room was amazing. Don’t let the lobby throw you off….it could use some sprucing. Room 310 was perfect. Unfortunately there is a restaurant in the building that makes the hallways smell like French fries all of the time, and whoever was above me seemed to be doing laps around the room constantly until after midnight for the first 4 nights…..or maybe they were playing basketball????

GreeceThe room had no cleaning service for the 8 nights we stayed. This is something that was not mentioned in the booking site. There was no equipment if you wanted to do it by yourself (a mop and a bucket maybe). On the phone they said that we should pay an extra cost if we wanted cleaning, towels or change our bed sheets. After our complaints they said that they would change our towels once. Unfortunately as we were busy all day ( work and vacation) we never reminded them to change the towels, and they never did it by themselves. There was no wardrobe , just a rack with 2 hangers. Also the booking description referred to toiletries and paper rolls. But in the bathroom there was only a big, almost empty, bottle of shampoo/shower gel and a soap dispenser for the hands. No conditioner, no body lotion, no cotton buds ,no shower cap or toothpaste. So "toiletries" was an empty bottle. Regarding paper roll, there were 2 rolls. When we spoke on the phone to complain about toiletries they also informed us that these rolls were provided for 8 nights! 2 person, 8 nights , 2 rolls!! After our complains they gave us 2 more rolls! Generally, I find it ridiculous to beg for toilet paper.
The room was modern, comfortable and very clean. It had a nice view of the square and big windows. Doors with code, no keys and quite secure as the building had entrance and floor doors with code also. It is placed in the center of the city close to shops, seashore and sightseeing.

IrelandWe booked the apartment because it had a kitchenette. When we arrived we realized the apartment just had a hob. There was no oven or even microwave oven which really limits the options for cooking. Also, only 2 small toilet rolls were left in our apartment for our 6 day stay so we needed to purchase more. There is no cleaning service so the towels left at the beginning of our stay were not replaced and there was no means to clean them.
Location was great. Close to bus stop 9 which is useful for tours or getting the bus to the airport. The apartment was clean and modern. The keyless entry worked perfectly.

United StatesThere is no front desk, no room cleaning, no additional toiletries, got a dirty pillow. Parking is not included. Paying for parking every day can get expensive. Rooms are nice and renovated, but the building is old.
The location is great, all walking distance to the downtown area, close to restaurants and stores. The size of the room and bathroom is excellent. The room was clean however, one of the pillows was dirty.. The rooms look nice and renovated but the building is old. There's no free parking, and paying for parking every day/night can get expensive. It looks like this is the norm for downtown Reykjavik.

United StatesIf you put in a workout room, that would be great. I didn't see laundry facilities but those would be nice as well. But that doesn't distract from what a nice experience this room was to book and utilize.
It was very clean and you can not beat the location in Reykjavik. Central to a lot of places.

Puerto RicoExcellent location, super clean room, great amenities!!! There are several restaurants to choose from and grocery shopping if you wish to cook. The kitchen is fully supplied with all you need. It's definitely highly recommended. Felt very safe as there are three locked doors before reaching room, and there is a police office building across the street.

United KingdomWe booked an apartment with city view and balcony and the pictures for that property showed an oven, but ours only had a 2 ring hob. Cooking facilities were limited e.g. there was no sieve.
Clean, modern property in a convenient location. The bed was comfortable, the TV a good size and it had a view of the cathedral.

NetherlandsThe sofabed was very uncomfortable though. Thankfully we had an airbed with us and put that underneath. And there weren't enough sheets and towels for 4. But that was solved the next day.
It's a nice studio. Very clean! New, nicely furnished. House is also clean. No mold, nor weird smells and thankfully also no chemical room sprays/parfums or parfumed sticks that always smell too much. It's in the inner city. Parking in nearby parkhouse available, is much cheaper than in the street.

United States- No receptionist to talk to (although responses by email were fast), no luggage storage besides shared/unsupervised laundry room, no late check out option - No devoted parking - need to find paid parking nearby
- Easy walk from bus stop 11 and 12, a short walk to the main part of the city, supermarket and several restaurants nearby - Property was extremely clean, spacious, had almost everything our family needed (microwave would have been great though) - Comfortable beds and bedding - Other places we stayed in Iceland were too hot - it was great we could turn on/off radiators and open windows to get the temperature just right.
