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...).

It was a walk away from the subway or train station but it’s not too much of an issue. It was however near the drop off and pick up point of the airport limousine bus, the ANA Crowne Plaza hotel which just right around the corner. As typical of Japanese hotels, the size of the room is small but we were still able to fit 5 suitcases!
Typical of Japanese hotels they are impeccably clean. The front desk staff always had a smile and were very helpful especially when my daughter lost her Kitaca card in the airport limousine bus the night before. They called the bus operator to inquire if any was found and all we had to do was claim it in their office. It amazes me how honest the Japanese people are. There was also a Yayoi Ken restaurant beside the hotel and a Seicomart across the street.

Unable to store large luggage with staff downstairs during our stay. We had two suitcase and two snowboard bags which we had to take up to our rooms for a one night stay (checked in at 4pm, left at 7:30am), but understandable given the limited space. 20-30 minute walk to Susukino and taking the subway does not decrease this time significantly and is expensive for the two stops (2-5 minute difference). The walk is fine both above or underground, but your feet may be sore and tired depending on how many steps you are doing each day.
Stayed here in 2020 and again in 2025 - the facilities are still nice and modern, and well taken care of. It was helpful to have a coin washing machine and dryer in the building. Double room is much more spacious than the room with small double bed. Have tried both room configurations and definitely prefer the double room.

Public baths cannot be used by people with tattoos. The TV was not smart, so we couldn't use streaming apps. There are very few lifts, so there's a huge queue for them in the mornings around checkout time. Can be stuck waiting for one for as long as 15 minutes. Very small rooms.
Very convenient location. The staff was very nice and spoke good English. Huge choice of pillows. Separate shower and toilet rooms!

It kind of sucked that you're not allowed to eat in the lounge. We ate in our hotel room, but there was only one seat so the other person had to sit on the bed to eat. Additionally, we felt that a lot of the areas in the hotel was too stuffy. My partner found the men's baths to be too warm and stuffy. Also, our rooms just felt way too warm, even with the air conditioning on. We were in Sapporo in winter. lol
The size of the rooms at JR Inn were amazing for Japan. Super comfortable, with a decent-sized bed. We also loved the location, it was close to the train station but was relatively quiet unlike Susukino. I also liked that the sink was separate to the toilet and bathroom. There were more than enough amenities and I enjoyed the baths in this area.

Nothing really. Just a minor space thing in the lobby when there are a lot of suitcases left by the guests. It’s not really a big deal.
I took my mom to Sapporo as a birthday present. The check in was very smooth. Dominic assisted us and he’s very professional, knowledgeable about hotel policy and friendly. I live in Japan and even if I have a Japan address, most hotels would photocopy my resident card without asking. I would always end up explaining to the front desk why I don’t want my card photocopied and they would look confused until I present an official online article, and that would be tens of minutes wasted. I am so grateful that it was a quick and smooth check in because we were so tired and ready to crash in bed. Thank you so much! Also, the breakfast was wonderful. It’s a perfect meal to start our day. The staff at Yayoi were all wonderful as well. Gochisousamadeshita!
