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.).

FranceVery nice guesthouse with lot of charm, nice lounge area and inside terrace. Room (w/ 4 bed) was comfortable and spacious (rather unusual by japanese standards...). Felt like a little house with roommates. Close to the station and not very far from the castle and other points of interest within the city

CanadaThe room’s digital key’s mechanism is noisy AND when someone went to the bathroom in the night and did not shut the door properly, it started ringing loudly until the passcode was entered again. I had to specify a time for my check in even though it would be in the specified check in window. The sink area don’t have counters or anywhere to put your few things while you’re brushing your teeth or washing your face. Also, careful with the lights in the lower bunk bed, I saw mine had been too close to the ”roof”and had started to burn the wood. That could be dangerous.
It is close to the station. The bed was confortable. There was a small kitchen and washer/dryer. There seemed to have a lot of extra little things you could need while traveling.

Hong KongWe have 5 people, we stayed in the 4-bed family room upstair plus a bed in the 4-person dorm room. The stair up the 4-bed room is quite steep and narrow and also slippery, kind of hard to walk down for older people, especially when you wear room slippers. Also, feel like the adminstration and security of the hostel is a bit lax. I picked a bed in the dorm room when I check in, and the staff acknowledged that. I didn't put anything on the bed. But when I go back the room late at night, someone else was already sleeping on the bed I picked. I then just slept on another bed. No problem happen afterwards though. But the lax administration may be because Kanazawa is a small town and the neighborhood feels safe. The shower place of the the 4-bed family room is a bit small, but the common shower place downstair is perfect.
Very convenient location, only 10-min walk from Kanazawa Station, where you can find grocery, department stores, restaurants etc. The neighbouhood also has some good restaurants. The neighbourhood is quiet and also convenient, close to lots of local bus stops, looks pretty when it snows. Atmosphere of this hostel is very warm and welcoming. Staff and other residents have been very nice to us. A snow storm hit Japan during our stay leading to JR suspension, other residents in the hostel help us to check the train status and stuff. All facilities including shower, kitchen and common area are OK, not luxurious but clean and functional.

The location is fabulous, about a 5 minute walk from the train station and just around the corner from bus stops. Our room was right next to the showers and toilets, which was handy, and there was a well stocked communal area to help yourself to drinks, etc. Staff were friendly and helpful. The futons were very comfortable and we all had a great night's sleep (except for the earthquake at 5.30am! :-D) Would absolutely stay here again. Definitely value for money.

The ease of communication and finding the place. Even creating the possibility of storing our luggages before checking in at 4pm. It's almost like your home away from home; really glad the use of kitchen.

GermanyThe staff most likely isn't here from around lunchtime until 4 pm. That also means that you cannot check in early. But the biggest downside for me is that they'll rush through the hostel in the morning to have everything clean as quickly as possible. So forget about sleeping in or having some quiet in the morning. They will wake you up no matter if you're checking out on that day or not. It shouldn't bother you if you're a morning person, but I'm not.
The hostel is perfectly located between Kanazawa station and its main touristic spots. Everything in town will therefore be walkable for you if you're staying here. It's also a very social place, so you're likely to meet other people. Needless to say, that is very special in Japan. The staff is very friendly, too. The place provides you with a towel and not only has a water dispenser but even a machine which serves you various soft drinks. Everything's clean and you'll feel like home. There are lots of games on the shelf and a guitar in the corner. A well-equipped kitchen and laundry options exist. Has a balcony to hang your clothes if so desired.
