How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe host came to greet us and fixed minor defects.
The parking is not on location. The house is a bit run-down and not as clean as other places in Japan.

Verified reviewIt is a traditional style house and gave a nostalgic feeling, the toilets were updated to a newer style so that was nice, we enjoyed the stay. The owner was responsive and the instructions were clear.
The kitchen was old and the fridge could have been cleaned better. There was tea available but no coffee. It is off the beaten path so you do need your own car to arrive. Cars are necessary to get to the nearest convenience store also.

Verified reviewIt was a historic beautiful house that suits every traveler who seeks Japanese tradition. At the small bay within a short walk the breathtaking view of Mt,Fuji was greeting us and became the highlight of my trip. The people near the village were honest, and friendly and they gave us free local brand Mikan many times. We enjoyed looking around the Sunday market and got fresh and good price local fish for dinner. The owner was always nice and helpful and responded fast. It is always hard part to manage the temperature in a historic house in winter, but we were pretty comfortable in kitchen and living area in the house.
We stayed here for the Christmas holiday. Even though the owner set plenty of heaters, the room temperature in the bedrooms was not pleasant, but it was not a deal breaker. The hospitality from the owner was perfect, and he made the futons before arrival which was great. The only I wanted one improve was the mere scent that came from the futons which annoyed me because I am long time carrier of chemical scent allergy.

Verified reviewIt's a pleasure to have the opportunity to stay at a traditional Japanese house. The owner has prepared lots of cooking utensils which has an option to cook and stay in the house at slow pace. It's also happy to use the kotatsu.
It's much easier if bathroom washing tap also modernised like the one in kitchen.
