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.).

United KingdomThe bathroom was on the basement floor and was very cramped.
It was really conveniently located, less than 10 minutes walk to the train station and 1 minute walk from a convenience store. The villa was spotlessly clean and well equipped.

United StatesMy main complaint is that the “welcome manual” did not warn us about how long the washer/dryer combination would take. One load took a whopping 4.5hrs! I wish I would have known in advance so we could have started the load sooner. Instead I woke up at 3am to check on the clothes which disturbed sleep.
Wonderful property located only a scenic minutes walk from the train station along the river. Property was so cute and made a lasting impression!

SingaporeIt's worth noting that there's only one bathroom available. This means guests may need to take turns showering, which could be a slight inconvenience for larger groups or families.
Located just a brief 6-minute stroll from Hakone Yumoto station, the guest villa offers both convenience and tranquility. The spacious and impeccably clean accommodations are complemented by modern amenities such as WiFi and a well-equipped kitchen complete with cooking appliances. The inclusion of a dining area adds to the comfort and functionality of the villa, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a peaceful retreat with the convenience of home-like comforts.

The property is very clean. It was good enough to accommodate family groups. It’s very near to yumoto station and 7 eleven is just 2 min walk. We enjoyed our stay and looking forward to visit again in future. The host was very communicative and provided us the region pay coupons as part of Govt initiative.

KazakhstanIndeed it was all great. It locates in 10 min walk from the station, which is very important. There were bus stops nearby, and no problems with the transportation. A surprise was the entertainment system with a wall projector and all possible online streaming services available. A convenient store nearby - across the street, was very convenient. However, due to the Covid restrictions there were almost no place to eat after 7pm even near the station.

AustraliaThe smell. Upstairs smells because the vents on the extraction fan over the stove haven't been cleaned properly or often enough. we opened every window but when we closed the windows at night, the smell immediately returned. Some of the bathroom towels smelt very bad. Like dirty socks. I think they were washed but left to sit in washing machine for too long. We couldn't use them. We couldn't turn off the outside light at night which made it hard to fall asleep. I did look for a switch but couldn't find one. We were booked into Guest Villa for two nights but we left after one night only. We didn't want to stay there any longer than was necessary and we booked into another hotel.
Excellent location, walking distance to the train station. Communication before arrival was excellent. We knew exactly what documentation to provide beforehand and how to reach the premises. Entry Code instructions were very clear. Premises were very clean (although see additional comments).

Czech RepublicWe were 7 people and we stayed in Villa 1. It was not so comfortable for 7 people as 3 couples. 1 couple with teenager needs to sleep in living room next to kitchen, 1 couple under roof where you cannot stand up. Only 1 room was normal as sleeping room. This was extremely uncomfortable. Also everywhere just futon beds. We didn't like it. Not comfortable for western people at all.
Nice accommodation with everything you need. Very clean, very close to hakone yumoto station, 7eleven shop is 50 meters from Villa, very famous onsen is 20 minutes walk.

Australiaour stay in Hakone was a little disappointing. Our villa (no 2) was joint to another villa and our neighbours (6 of them) were loud and kept us all awake until 4am. The shower is located on the bottom level and it smelt musty/mouldy. The towels smelt so bad and we couldn’t use them, the owner organised to get them changed.
The location was good and it was clean.
