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.).

GermanyGood: Price, location, bed was clean and comfortable, light & power outlet on bed Bad: very small bathroom for each room, cleanliness of the whole place a little questionable, have to put on bedsheet yourself All in all the place was ok for the one night and price I paid (15€) and I would choose it again just to sleep for one night But I won't stay there for much longer, since it's really quite run down and you can see that it's not cleaned often. For example there is dust everywhere.There is also no staff, you need to do a self check-in, but this didn't bother me. If you're looking for a place to hang out and meet other travelers, this is not the right place. But if you just need a place to sleep for 1-2 nights, it's ok.

ReunionBathroom and toilet in the room is really annoying, you can't sleep proparly. There is a bar but always closed. So weird hostel, you see no one working there, check in and check out on a tablet. I staid randomly there cause I needed a stop.
I staid one more night cause I met great people there. And As no one there, it feels like we were at friend's place.

PortugalReally expensive! I end here because I get stuck in Kofu. Noisy, from your room you can ear the people at bar just downstairs. The bathroom is a cabin who is in the room. So you can hear everyone using it anytime.
The little common space is a bit messy but comfy. And you can find the necessary. The staff seem very nice.

IsraelWhen I first arrived I thought the place is closed. The smell was not pleasant, everything is messy and fortunately no staff was around. I’m hoping that the owner of the place will return to operate the place in a serious and pleasant way for the traveler. The potential is definitely visible and it seems that before the covid-19 there was a good activity in the place.
The guesthouse is in a good location. I was just myself in the traditional tatami room and it was good. The room is small and not fitting for four strangers people. Very nice kid was carrying on the place.

JapanI was a little scared because there are no handrails on the stairs.
I arrived outside check-in hours, so I only spoke to the staff on the phone. I learned how to do self check-in and how to get the key. Other people were sleeping in my place, so I had no choice but to use the upper bunk. I had a hard time getting down because the ladder was at a right angle. However, the people in the same room seemed to go to the mountains, and when I woke up, they were gone. I didn't see anyone during my stay. It was a strange hotel. Thanks to you, I could use the room as much as I wanted.

JapanThe A/C in room 201 does not work, and it got so hot that it was difficult to sleep. There is no fan either. Opening the window didn't help either as this was the middle of summer. There is no staff and no response to any of the questions I sent via booking.com. Not a problem in winter but in summer? It felt like hell in room 201.
You don't have to leave the room to shower and use toilet; a plus in the mornings as long as it's not full.

CanadaIt's comfortable enough to stay one night but don't expect much.
I really wanted to like this place. The photos made it look fun, lively and social. I was surprised when I walked in that there was no one to greet us. It was just an iPad check in and you get the key from a box. In the photos, it looked like there was an active bar to socialize and meet people but the lights were off and it was being used as a storage area. It was just a mess. The kitchen and shared space looked sad and the further I went into the guest house and up to my room, I honestly felt like I was paying a lot of money to feel like a squatter. At least we had our one private washroom and the room itself was okay. I had booked the room for 2 people but they only had one set of towels so I went downstairs to see how I could get in touch with staff. There was a landline with a phone number to call. They apologized and did bring the towels eventually but I just felt like this place was missing the mark on everything.

United StatesIt was kind-of a weird vibe when I got there. No staff in the evening or morning when I was there. I didn't meet anyone else. Just music playing in the kitchen...it felt a bit weird. But nothing went wrong and they gave good directions on the check-in.
It is walking distance from the train station (about 10-15 minutes). Close to 7-11, places to eat. No one else had booked the dormitory so I had that all to myself! Comfortable.

New Zealandmaybe it was just the time of year but there wasn't any real vibe to the place. not a deal breaker, but if you're looking to meet people I personally didn't have any luck. also the common room/kitchen area could do with a bit more cleaning. I had a food wrapper that i put down for a minute and it was covered in fruit flies when I picked it back up again.
a pretty good guesthouse for a good price. this guesthouse is about a 5-10 minute walk to the station, all flat and pretty much all straight. there's a family mart about 5 minutes away which is nice, and many restaurants and bars closer towards the station. check in was easy and contactless,bed were comfy enough, and rooms were pretty clean. bathrooms could be cleaner but nothing outwardly dirty, and they are in the rooms. there is a bar downstairs, but I personally never saw any staff members during my whole stay. overall for the price, it was decent enough for a couple nights stay but probably not many more.

United StatesAlmost everything was bad.
The bar looked cool in the pictures and that’s about it. We stayed in a private room. The digital check in process was a pain, the room was not clean. Left over trash from previous guests and a buildup of disgust in the bathroom and around the room was gross. I get this is budget accommodations but that is no excuse for poor cleaning, curtains that do not block light or cover windows, and an ac that cannot cool the room. Easily could be improved with decent cleaning throughout the facility and some care into customer experience. I would stay anywhere else.
