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.).

IsraelThe cameras that followed my steps
I stayed one night. Japanese style guest house, most of the time no one was in the reception. There are few security cameras inside that followed the guest (a bit creepy) A good price !

JapanThe bathroom was dirty. The bedsheets were already a bit yellow, which made me think how often they were cleaned and changed.

JapanI didn't like that the facility didn't have clear parking and the inn keeper had to find a parking spot for me. The room was a bit hot as well.
I liked the size of the room. I thought it was very spacious. Bathroom and shower were quite cleanly as well.

JapanThe price is too high for the quality of the service and the type of the facilities they offer to the customer. Even though the clarification that it’s not a “proper” hotel is made, the facilities were old and covered in dust, and the service in general makes the customer feel unwelcome (no amenities offered and they charge for everything, even leaving your luggage before or after check in) . Very different to the usual Japanese service.
The location is very good.

ItalyThe toilet and bathroom could have been cleaner. The host explained everything I needed to know, but other than that there was no interaction. He's not there most of the time. It wasn't a problem for me, but it might feel a bit "cold".
I was abit concerned after reading the reviews, but to be honest I had a pleasant stay for 1 night. The room was quiet (thanks to the other guets) and spacious enough, with AC, a little table and a fridge. The location is great if you need to be close to the station. There is a convenience store with a good restaurant next to it at about 5 min on foot. You get a key for the building and one for your room.

FranceCheck out is at ten it’s too early. No one does that. We did not know before, even though it was told. Because we did not read the message, not everyone does. The owner was not very nice. We had to pay because we arrived 45 minutes to early and pay again because we left one hour too late. In total 20 euros extra. The communication used by the landlord in the messages and on the instructions is absolutely unfrriendly
The staff was nice. The room clean.

MexicoAfter we checked in, the owner came to our room to complain that we did bot answer his message. He did not accept our apologies and even closed the door from the inside and blocked our way out. This continued almost 30 minutes, after which we could convince him to leave us alone. It was so late that we could not change the place any more, but we did not feel safe and left very early in the morning. Never again.
The place is quite old, but we liked that there were many books. It is quite close to Arita station.
