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.).

Philippines(5) Check-in No baggage storage and check-in process is tedious and takes a lot of time. 1-2 days before the date of check-in, host will send an email with the Lock Code for the door and a link to input the details of each guest staying, including uploading a picture of the ID pictures of each guest. Guests are advised to do this in advance, otherwise, they will have to do this to complete check-in process via tablet on the day of check-in. If done in advance, a QR code will be sent and used to check-in via tablet. However, even with advance inputting of guest information, there will still be a video authentication per guest on the day of check-in -- a picture of each guest shall be taken on the tablet then an agent will call to authenticate check-in via video call.
(1) Villa / Facilities The Villa and facilities are clean, new and complete. The appliances and interior/furnitures are beautiful and new. The villas had dishwasher, beer dispenser, dyson blowdry, robovac, nespresso coffeemaker (with pods), aircon and heater, projector and TV. The hosts also provided us with toiletries, towels, etc. and everything we needed for a pleasant and convenient stay. Our villa had a massage chair and barbecue area/backyard. (2) Travel The location is about 30min bus ride from Hakone-Yumoto Station. Coming from Tokyo, we paid for the Hakone Free Pass that would allow us unlimited passes for all transportation rides in Hakone (including the trip from Shinjuku to Hakone-Yumoto). Note, however, that for the Limited Express train to Hakone-Yumoto, we had to pay an addition 1,200 Yen for the Romancecar. From Hakone-Yumoto station, we had to take the Togendai bus from the station and stop at Tokyu Shin-Iriguchi which is just in front of the Rakuten Stay Villas South but about about a min or two walk to Rakuten Stay Villa North. Guests can use the side road that goes around Rakuten North to avoid walking by the side of the main road. (3) Location/Groceries/Restaurant/Tourist Attractions The Villas are near Togendai Port/Ropeway Station. It's about 10min ride to the nearest grocery/shops in Sengoku. However, it's quite far from most tourist areas and restaurants. The nearest convenience store is still a bus ride away and the nearest grocery closes 6pm (most shops/tourist areas close around 4pm-5pm). Guests should make sure to buy their groceries and food before shops close. Convenience stores are not open 24/7. (4) Onsen Onsen is wonderful. Ours overlooked the forest, others overlooked the highway though. We had an outdoor footbath too.
