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.).

SingaporeNothing - only downside is that there is no laundry in the hostel, and you'll have to travel out to a nearby laundromat for travellers. However, its just a short 7min walk away.
Located in Shijo and it is near to various Kyoto attractions. Very easy to get around and just a few min walk to a couple of subways :) The room was spacious for the 4 of us girls, and loved the cleanliness of the entire place, including the toilet. ( ps, Really appreciate the small towels in the toilet). There's also a leg massage, snacks and drinks in the common area. You may also tune in to watch Netflix either in the common area or in your room! Overall was an enjoyable hostel experience. The host was also really friendly and kind, able to speak basic English and Mandarin as well.

PhilippinesI have always hated using the stairs especially when I have luggages. Though there’s only a second floor so it is still bearable and the staffs are really helpful. The room is quite small and it’s a struggle to open the suitcase but aside from that, everything is good.
The location is good. Near the shopping center and stations. There’s also a 7/11 nearby. The shared bathroom is always clean and has available amenities for use. There’s also food stalls and restaurants which are all walking distance. I also live that they have a massager in the common room which I used especially after a long walk.

Unbeatable location in the downtown area, but on a quiet street. Had a wonderful time meeting other solo traveller ladies who were all so kind and considerate and friendly. Felt like I was coming home each day, and was sad to leave! There was even a foot massage machine which was such a treat each day.

United KingdomI chose this guesthouse because it says woman only and it's located in the heart of popular place I love in Kyoto which is Nishiki Market. The guesthouse has everything I need, neat and tidy, comfort bed, clean shower, and nice staff. And the best facility I've got from the guesthouse is..foot massager!

SpainLovely guesthouse for women, you will feel like at home. The girls working there are super nice. Very near to shopping district and Gion. The feet massage machine is a big plus, after long walks around Kyoto. It would have been nice to have washing machines. But in 10 minutes you can reach a good laundromat.

SpainEverything was perfect! 10/10 Would come again for the next time!
- Friendly staff: everyone is very nice! The staff would explain to you all the instructions of your stay and help you as much as possible. They even made a customised key chain for you if you want your bed sheet to be changed. On the day of checkout, you can leave your luggage there and they would offer you for a rest in the living room when you return back to take your luggage. - Installation: there were all the necessary appliances in the living space which includes a microwave, water dispenser, fridge, TV, and even a leg massage machine (there were always people using it, it's very comfy). In my room, which was a 4 bed room, there was another TV just for the guests in this room. - Great location: very near to Teramachi and Shinkyogoku shopping streets. But it's very silent around the area so no worries about any noise.

United StatesThe Wi-Fi didn’t stretch to our room, but that wasn’t a big problem for us. They only accepted payment in cash so I had to make an additional ATM visit.
My 13 year old daughter and I stayed in a double room for 3 nights while we explored Kyoto. We both felt at home immediately. The common space was welcoming and enjoyable to hang out in, our beds were comfortable, and the shared bathroom and shower were clean and comfortable. I’m not sure if it’s always this way, but the other guests were quiet and polite and respectful. Wish we could have stayed here longer!

GermanyNot a social place and I was a bit unlucky with other guests who stormed our dorm at 7am to chat loudly with their friend (but that can always happen) In general it’s mainly older Japanese women in the guesthouse, not much opportunity for communication in English. So if you’re travelling alone and want to socialise I wouldn’t recommend, but other than that great place.
Super friendly and welcoming hosts. Room was super spacious and bathrooms were super clean. Also location is great to explore Kyoto. And best part they have a foot massage machine which is amazing after a day out exploring.
