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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

IrelandPaper thin walls so you can hear everything outside or upstairs etc. The extracter in the shower unit was useless. We used the washing machine but useless as the drying didnt actually dry the clothes. The room was cold, so it required the use of the heater. Also, the location was made to go south down to Izu etc. But found out the buses were very limited and often required a big journey to Owarda before heading back, which would be hours of on a bus. The town also closes at 5. Only few restaurant options
Nice style room. Had air conditioning, fridge, microwave. Nice hot shower. Plenty of extra bed clothes

TurkeySheets were a little old and dusty (residual dust from a drying machine I suppose). Kettle was not working but we used electric stove instead.
Location: Very close to bus stop and docks. It was easy to find with google maps. Has anything you need in kitchen for short stays. Also washing machine is a very big plus. Larger than hotel rooms. You will have 1 bedroom, 1 living room plus kitchen and batroom when you close sliding doors. Two air conditioners were more than enough for our time.

The location is walking distance from several visit point. The room are spacious enough and comfortable. The check-in was a breeze with password to lock box provided to you prior to your stay or upon enquiry via Booking. Great value for money. It is a great place for a relaxing holiday where you can have quiet walk in an amazing scenery and serene atmosphere.

BrazilMy family and I are on vacation and we are visiting several cities in Japan. In the case of this accommodation, it was the worst we have been to. The apartment had a musty smell, there was no space for us to put the two futons, it looked dirty, the bathroom had a bad smell. Furthermore, the bed linen, sheets etc were not clean. Bad place. We don't recommend it. The owner did not return our contact. We will ask for a refund of the payment. The place is horrible.
