Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

APA Hotels are usually a safe bet when booking for budget accommodation in Japan. This one is very close to kuramae station and walkable to Sensō ji and Tokyo skytree. The rooms are clean and had all.the basic amenities .

Whilst they offer luggage storage for same day (check in/out) and help you with takkyubin (luggage carrier service that I HIGHLY recommend. They are very strict with the weight (other hotels offered to charge more at least) but the staff here had no leniency, they also don’t help you fill the form (other hotels i’ve been to fill in on your behalf). When storing luggages, they don’t have a specific room. It’s all at the lobby so it can get very crowded and tight to move around.
After 2 weeks in Japan, APA’s hotel bed has been the best i’ve slept in so far. Usually the mattresses are hard and pillows not soft - but APA met the usual standard of bedding and was very comfortable. The location is great if you want to see touristy stuff (senso-ji) or get lost in the city!

The windows cannot be opened. Windows cannot be looked through. Almost no daylight. The mode of the AC unit cannot be adjusted per room. As such, it was way too hot in the room and it couldn't be changed.
The room was clean, everything was provided.

Room smells bad since you can't open the windows and there is no fresh air coming in. It had the smell of a long time used carpet. Bedsheets and the black "decoration" were dirty. I could see stains on both. There are better options in Tokyo ppl paying the same rate.
The bed was comfortable

Room is very compact- but this was absolutely fine for me, but you would need to ask about accessibility if this is relevant to your stay.
Great location very easy to find. Staff were extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Room was compact but very clean with a really nice bathroom. Everything you needed.

The location of the hotel made it a bit harder to come back for a break before heading out again.
The room was very clean and felt well designed, so despite being standardly small (for Japan) everything had a purpose and aimed to maximise available space. The hotel was a little way from the main tourist area of Asakusa so was quiet. There were several convenience stores and a supermarket nearby. The staff were courteous and efficient. Note, the hotel is closer to Kuramae Station and Asakusa Station.
