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):
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.).

JapanIt’s a bit far out from the port area where most of the shops and restaurants are, as well as the ferry terminal. It’s about an hour walk or a short bus, but the price was good so it was worth it.
I liked the range of facilities on offer. I thought it was a regular hotel room but when I arrived I realised it was more like a small apartment, with a kitchenette and washer/dryer facilities.

JapanOnce I came with my phone completely out of batter and I could not open the door for 20 minutes. I was saved by couple that arrived to the hotel. Please organize electric socket near the entrance for such occasions.
Fully automated hotel, there are no people at the reception. You open door with an application and it is convenient. Room is rather large for Japan, bus stop is nearby and it is easy to reach port. Room has kitchen , washing and drying machines - perfect for my diving trip. I stayed 1 week - it was good.

United StatesIt would be nice to have a chair on the balcony.
I enjoyed the East facing balcony and view of the ocean. I liked how light the room was and how quiet it was. I could leave the window open at night and enjoy the fresh air. The close proximity of a bus stop and grocery store made this ideal for a car free, maisonette property. There was no odor or musty smell. If you are coming from the airport on the #4 Azuma bus the bus stop you want is #11 (Okinawa Prefecture Yaeyama Branch Office).

JapanYou get so much for your money! A full kitchen, washer and dryer, a bath and a balcony! It felt like a home of my own and is very close to the airport bus stop, connecting it to the port one way and the airport the other way. There's also a dominos opposite. It has its own parking area too and is self check-in. The door can even be opened remotely through your phone. I can't recommend this place enough!

We had a pleasant stay with a nice view and atmosphere with a welcoming feel. It felt welcoming as the bus stops were so close, a ride away from town. The beach was walking distance away and in general the hotel was very large and offered a lot of utilities that made it a very nice stay.

South KoreaWhen I was making the booking, I marked the number of guests as 3. One adult + 2 kids (13 and 10 years old). I selected the room with a double bed because it said it would fit the three of us. I understood they would have a sofa bed or an extra mattress for one child. I contacted the property by email, asking about it. They only answered they would not provide an extra bed. WHY DO THEY SAY IT FITS THREE PEOPLE IF IT DOESN'T??? Sleeping with my two kids in a double bed was extremely uncomfortable. My booking was for eight days of stay in Ishigaki. I decided to change my trip, cancel flights, and leave on the fourth day. I lost money and time, but I needed to handle it. I woke up feeling pain in my back every day. I was disappointed regarding the size of the bed. It could, at the very least, be a large double bed.
There was no breakfast. I went to the grocery store, bought ingredients, and prepared breakfast in our room's private kitchen. There are two good grocery stores in that area. The location is quite good. There is a McDonald's close by and a few convenience stores. We used public transportation (bus) to and from the airport.

JapanThe 2 big chairs in the room were very nice, but the guest upstairs kept dragging them across the hard floor creating quite a lot of noise. Maybe the small addition of some rubber feet on the chairs, to reduce noise and stop damage to your nice floors?
A really nice, well equipped hotel room with a sea view. Check in was exceedingly easy with the digital key codes sent before by email. More like a self contained apartment that a hotel room, with a kitchen, washing machine and dryer. The location was excellent, close the centre of town, supermarkets and nice places to eat. It would maybe a little far to walk but had a car rental. There was a large carpark / parking lot. The room was very clean and tidy and accessories and toiletries were provided and there was help your self extras down stairs. The balcony was really nice, it would have been nice to sit outside (maybe plastic patio chairs in the summer)?

Close to the diving shop - Nova dive, 3 km away. Many restaurants and kombini around the area. Cozy and free parking lot. There’s a washing machine & dryer so I can wash my clothes after the dive. no need key. less worries about missing the key and so on.

JapanNothing much, we enjoyed our stay a lot! Great value for money. Just 2 recommendations: Would have been nice to have some pamphlets about the island to give ideas for places to visit and activities. Also having a toilet brush would be nice as well.
Great location, halfway between the airport and the center - both within 15-20 minutes by bus. There is a nice beach and restaurants in the area. Having a dryer and a washing machine in the room made a great difference for us.

The location was good, close to the Don Quijote and to the bus station, from where one can easily access the ferry port and airport. There are also convenient stores and rental car places not too far from it. Checkin was quick and easy. Overall great value!

JapanThe main negative was that the air-conditioner did not smell good but if you didn't leave it on, you'd be uncomfortable. I had to take the filters out and wash them as well as spray the internal filter which helped a little but it would be ideal for these to be professionally cleaned every 6 months to a year of so. No closet space was a minor issue.
Everything was very easy - no keys (so no check-in needed), time arrangement for cleaning the room a couple of days in, washer and dryer usage in room with detergent available. The cost for 5 nights was very affordable and it was a short drive into the downtown area.
