How guest reviews work
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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Staff could be more helpful and friendly instead of rushing the guests to check-in, etc. I also found it quite odd to leave the front desk or reception unattended in the early morning hours when we checked-out.

It's not located at Shinagawa station! It's Sengakuji station, 20 min walk from Shinagawa. It's good for those who come from Haneda airport, cause you have a direct train. But I was travelling with a shinkansen, and had no choice, but to take a taxi, cause I have heavy baggage. Also if you take this hotel because of the onsen and have a tattoo, better don't do it. They ask to put a patch, and go with it to the hot bath, and don't remove until you get dressed. It ended for me with a terrible allergic reaction and skin rush. I don't recommend it. Better visit a tattoo friendly onsen, there are many in the Roppongi area.
The hotel is an APA business hotel, small room, cleaning once in 3 days. Very comfy bad. Mostly local people traveling with a business purpose. Didn't take the breakfast, can't say anything.

A bit pricey but I needed convenience for 8:30 flight at Haneda. If you use subway at Sengakuji make sure you take the exit to the right from the train. Left exit adds 500m and 4 flights of stairs!! With 2 large bags I was sweating like a marothoner. Right exit has a lift and 1 set of stairs only. Breakfast at the hotel starts at 6:30 so had to skip but Haneda Starbucks opens at 6:30!
Close to Sengakuji station for Haneda airport. Comfortable bed and good shower

Rooms are very small but you expect that for he price. Careful with the elevators especially around check out time, it took us about 20 minutes just to get to the ground floor because the hotel was busy with few elevators.
Great location, close to the metro for getting to the airport and the centre of Tokyo

Bed was too soft. One elevator was out of order over the 2 nights we stayed so there were long waits at times.

Great location: 2 min from train station, exit even has an elevator, right next to a small good ramen shop that is open until 11:00pm Surprising nice onsen. I would plan to always finish a trip staying at an APA with onsen to relax. Amazing staff, super helpful.
