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...).

ThailandMy luggage is quite large. It can not fit in space under bed. For me, the location is a bit far from subway. But it's still walkable. The hotel is very quiet even in the cafe/front desk area. It's not that bad but people respect each other, I think. Somehow, that silence make me tensed lol.
Even though I stay in dormitory room but the bed for each person are really private. The bathroom, restroom, the room with sinks and mirrors are always clean and there is enough facility. No queue appear at all:D Reasonable price and safety.

AustraliaI didn't appreciate the inflexibility of whoever manages the online customer service as they rejected my request for an early check-in. Be mindful that check-in starts at 4pm which is ridiculous for anyone landing early in the morning as was the case with my itinerary.
What definitely made my stay was the friendly receptionist. He was very friendly and accomodating enough to understand my situation whereby I had to check-in and check-out of my room on the same day. It allowed me to rest for a few hours and take a nice hot shower before my connecting flight. Would definitely come back again.

SingaporeStayed for 2 nights, and it was great for the price point. The room was clean, quite spacious (we opted for the room for six pax), and it has a lobby for guests to sit and get some drinks. The front counter staff was courteous – one of my travel pals managed to borrow a luggage weighing scale, no questions asked. Also, the location is convenient – it sits next to the Ueno Station.

IndonesiaRoom is a bit small for a compact double bed. but in Ueno, it is about balance between price, location, room size, and quality.
Location. very close to Ueno JR station Iriya gate. Price, quite affordable for this location. Bear in mind that Iriya gate is in the quiet back side of the Ueno station.
