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.).

SpainNothing in particular.
It is close to the main station, and the facilities are excellent. The staff was really friendly, they offered tips on what to see around the area, and made an effort to make small talk with me in japanese even though I only speak the language a little. There's a rooftop with amazing views of mount Fuji where you can relax and enjoy your meals/drinks, and you can rent their foldable bikes for free to visit the surrounding lakes.... Oh, and did I mention the free snacks? You get free snacks... Everything was amazing :)

Great location featuring unique rooftop with full view of mt fuji. Owner is greatly hospitable and caring - He actually came to tell me mt fuji was in view when I was about to depart so it really made my trip. Great facility as well - free coffee and snacks so I can grab a hot coffee and head for kawagichiko lake side early in the morning i.e. 5am.

The host was kind and helpful with where to eat and what to see. We spent the day after we checked out ridding the available bikes around the lake. It was also comfortable, clean and spacious.

PhilippinesNothing. Everything is perfect for me.
I am absolutely in love with this place! It is only 5-7 minutes from the Kwaguchiko station and is very accessible! Even though Mount Fuji didn’t show up and it was snowing, I had the best time meeting fellow travelers. And their third-floor balcony was incredible! They offer free bikes for their guests to use, and there were free snacks in the lounge. I think the best part is how awesome their staff are! I’d love to stay longer in Kawaguchiko next time and stay with them again!

MalaysiaThey do provide towel rental each for 100 yen. It would be perfect if it’s free provided. This is the only con that I can think of, which I think most of us will also agree 100 yen is not a problem, at all.
Clean. Comfortable. Friendly. Warm. Informative. The most surprising part of the stay is: they provide free access on bicycles! Which is a perfect transport in Kawaguchiko Area. Due to the cold weather, they even provide us free gloves and raincoat if needed. They also write every day’s temperature and weather on a small blackboard so you can double check the weather before going outside. The staff is super friendly that I couldn’t ask for more. They even give maps of tourist spots in Fujikawaguchiko, lead and guide you of the instructions about their space and access. I’ll definitely stay there again while returning to Fujikawaguchiko!

My friends and I had an enjoyable stay at Fuji Guest House Ao. We booked a mixed dormitory and the bed is so comfortable. Their host are amazing. She brief us on every single thing that we need to know and show us around during check in. Upon our arrival all communication with the host was through chat feature on booking.com. Prompt reply every single time. The guest house is located nearby Kawaguchiko Station, which is about 5-10 mins walk. Convenience store and restaurants are within walking distance too. The host did a splendid job in keeping the place clean, it was spotless. There's a pantry with refrigerator, coffee machine and electric kettle that everyone can use. Free snacks, coffee, green tea and water are replenished everyday. No cooking stove though but that was not a problem for us. There are 4 toilets in total. 2 on the ground floor and another 2 on the 2nd floor where all the rooms are. Showers are located on the ground floor. You can rent towels and purchase toothbrush at a reasonable price. Shower gel, shampoo and hairdryer are free. I find the instructions that are placed at multiple area in the guest house are useful and the best thing about this place is the rooftop. The view is amazing! Mount Fuji right smack on your face during clear weather. There's mini playground for kids too. It was where we spend most of our time when we were at the guest house. They provide bicycle(well maintained) for guest to use, first come first serve. We used it on our last day to explore Kawaguchiko area. This place is perfect for those who are looking for a low to mid range stay in Kawaguchiko area. Recommended!
