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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

South AfricaThe lockers (located right near the beds) are made of metal and are super noisy. I highly recommend earplugs, but then again I always recommend them. The bathroom's cleanliness left something to be desired. There was a blocked basin, which I told the staff about and I was reassured that it would get fixed, by the time we left the next day it was still clogged.
It was adequate. I am happy that the rooms were at least quiet. It is located quite centrally near a major subway station, which made getting around super easy.

United StatesThe bed was spacious and comfortable, but other than that, everything else was pretty run down, at least in the economic section where I stayed. The restrooms in the economic floors are bad, you get a very small locker, and there's limited luggage space. Out of about five dryers downstairs, only one worked while I stayed, and it takes very long to dry. The showers are OK but also need a little work. The only toilet with a bidet is downstairs from the reception. I only went to the social room on the 9th floor a handful of times, it was terrible, in my opinion. All that being said, my stay was ok. You get what you pay for in Tokyo.

AustraliaPretty good, cheap and close to a train station and close to Shinjuku, bed was pretty hard but was manageable. Staff were nice on reception However, no plug sockets in actual capsule which was annoying, lockers are extremely thin and can’t fit in any reasonable sized luggage, place could be cleaner throughout, defo needs to be deep cleaned. Showers are in the basement and bit grotty but wasn’t busy when I went so was manageable Overall I think if your on a budget it’s fine

United StatesThe facilities were a little lacking and the restrooms were not the cleanest or best kept. Lockers were provided but were too small to fit even carry on sized luggage, no additional areas for secure (locked) storage were provided. The location was not very centralized and the options for food and other things was quite limited in the surrounding area. The beds were not comfy.
The staff was kind, helpful, and attentive to our needs. The location was quiet and generally in a good neighborhood.

United KingdomThe room was stuffy and hot. The two male Reception staff were helpful. However... That black female lady. Was rude, abrupt and not a pleasant experience checking in at all. I dreaded if she'd be on again, but luckily two men worked until I checked out. Who were nothing but helpful. Perhaps she could take a leaf out of their book or go through re training. I'm an Ex Royal Air Force Officer, so appreciate respect both ways. Unfortunately she didn't give this to me or other customers.
I liked the location and the price.

AustraliaThe showers were in the basement, and the elevator was the only way of getting up and down the building. The elevator also seemed like it would stop working at any moment.
The capsule beds were surprisingly quiet. Could hardly hear anyone else in the room at night, which was nice.

BangladeshThis is not a comfortable place for a long stay. Additionally, in the mixed dormitory, the same washroom is shared by both males and females. If you compare it with a standard capsule, it is of low quality and may not meet your expectations.
I arrived at the location after the check-in time had passed. However, I had informed them in advance, and they were very cooperative. They provided me with clear instructions on how to check in without their presence. The place was conveniently located near the subway. Since I booked it for only one night, I didn’t encounter any issues. I had booked two beds, and both were clean when I arrived.
