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...).

United States of AmericaThe kitchen could have been better equipped, and the bed was two twin beds pushed together, typical of Europe, but without a connecting piece between so it was uncomfortable when the beds would slide away from each other in the night. Also, very hot in the room when we checked in, but that’s just nit-picking a great stay.
Great location, one or two blocks to Laugavegur. Easy check in, and we found cheap parking on Skulgata, maybe 3 or 4 blocks total from the accommodation. Would definitely stay again.

FrancePretty much everything met or exceeded my expectations, I do not have much to criticize regarding Alfred's Studio!
Clean, tidy and convenient room with a great location. All the required facilities are provided in the studio, I recommend it for solo travellers looking for a comfortable place to stay!

United KingdomI'd be nit picking for the price.
For the money, the place was impeccably clean, warm and seemingly newly refurbished. It's a city location, so bare in mind the area is urban, but it's a relatively quiet city, and the accommodation is a handful of metres from the seafront and a very short walk from the city centre.

United KingdomVery comfy and clean room. The location is great...the sea and the mountains are just down the road and he rest of the town is just a few minutes walk away. Easy check in and check out process. They've provided whatever you would need for a short stay. The room doesn't get cleaned, if you are staying longer and need a clean and sheet change then you can ask for one at €50 and they organize it for you

NetherlandsThe beds are on the soft side, but that's a personal preference, so could work well for someone else. Still slept very well.
Excellent location, clean room, nice little cooking area and we could do laundry easily. For a place so close to the main shopping streets and the boulevard it's also very quiet. Would 100% recommend. Great value for money.

AustraliaThe beds weren’t the most comfortable. Too soft and the pillows weren’t great. Unfortunately we didn’t sleep well & doing long days with tours this wasn’t good
Very clean and well presented, a homely feeling. Had all the facilities we needed ie fridge, stove, kettle. The washing machine & drier were a savour traveling as we needed to wash. Liked the heating towel rack to dry your towels. Handy to bud stops and tours

United KingdomIt got quite hot during the night and there were only small windows to open.
The location was excellent: right in the middle of the town and next to bars, restaurants, cheap supermarket and also the sea. There was also a lovely public swimming pool within 10 minutes' walk. It was very quiet: we did not hear the other guests at all. It was great to have a small kitchen as we were able to prepare some simple meals and packed lunches to take on the trips since food in Iceland is very expensive for us. The bathroom was nice and the beds were comfortable. The host gave us very useful and detailed information before we arrived and he also left information in our room that was great, including cheapest supermarket. etc. The Wifi was very strong. We called the host when we arrived about a query we had and he immediately answered and helped us out.
