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.).

DenmarkPaper walls and windows - the windows are facing the street with a lot of activity taking place during the night. Bring your earplugs. You can also hear what other people are talking in their rooms, which is hell for light sleepers.
You get what you pay for. The place was clean, close to the beach. The kitchen and common areas are well maintained.

CanadaRoom was very small but expected.
More than sufficient number of shower and washroom in relation to the number of rooms. Being the first time staying at a guesthouse with shared facility, I was concerned but all went well. Also it's very close to the beach and 7-Eleven that has a wide variety of breakfast items including a decent coffee, lunch and dinner if needed.

Hong KongOne of the bathroom's hot water does not working, so it is freezing while bathing at night. The place is a bit far from stations.
The bathroom & washroom is clean. The dining room has decorated so nicely. The place is quiet so I got a really good rest in the 2 nights.

New ZealandLoved the location so close to the beach, slight hiccup with bus service but it's a short taxi ride, there is a train station near by , but we didn't use to get to the B&B , I used it after my beach walk to get to Hasedera temple. I liked the decor, the bed was comfortable and great having a 24hr 7/11 next door .

United KingdomThe only suggestion for improvement would be to swap regular single beds for bunk beds to free up floor space for storing luggage in the bedrooms. The rooms have nice high ceilings, so they could easily accommodate a bunk bed set up.
Location was brilliant. Very easy to access both the beach and the train station. Loads of lovely places to shop and eat locally too. There is a nice lounge and kitchen area and the shared bathrooms were very spacious. The staff were amazingly kind and helpful! :)

JapanSome people did not sleep well because of the noisy AC, and because only one of the 3 windows in the 4-bed room has a curtain so it gets very bright at around 5AM. Maybe bring ear plugs and a eye mask. Swim stuff does not dry well in the room, I had better luck getting up early to dry it out front of the building on the wooden fencing.
Great location close to the beach, the station, and many restaurants. Comfy beds, clean bathrooms with good shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Big shared fridge, well equipped kitchen, chill and beachy common space with couch, coffee table, dining table and chairs.

United StatesFind it a little strange to have to pay extra for a towel. The road noise is really a lot, I never realized how loud motorbikes are until you hear them racing down the road all night - it is ok for a budget accomodation, but it would be good if they provided earplugs. The curtains in Room 5 (corner room) also let in a lot of light, so we were up early everyday with the light and noise.
For a hostel, this was great, but could really be exceptional with a few extra touches. Having the living room to work, relax, eat etc. is good. We had to come a little later than expected and the staff stayed late for us, we really appreciated that. Bed and blankets are very comfortable.

JapanGood location, very close to the sea. And not too far from the next train station. Overall good value, if looking for a cheap, clean place to stay. But no amenities, which includes bath towels. But those can be rented for 200¥. Still a reasonable price I believe, especially if only staying for a short time.

United StatesThe giant list of rules and the hall lights couldn't be turned off- if you ventured out to use the bathroom in the night, you were wide awake from the bright hallway by the time you returned to bed.
The location and the price. It's a hostel so we weren't expecting the Ritz. Beds were comfortable, everything was very clean and staff, although limited in number, were friendly and helpful.
