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.).

The staff here are absolutely lovely and were a huge help when my airline delayed my baggage for two days. The rooms are well air conditioned and I slept great despite it being the peak of July weather. 10-15 minute walk from Imazato station. Excellent range of amenities with additional extras (like rental clothes for your room) very reasonably priced. Free laundry.

So far the best hostel I stayed in so far. The interior design is amazing and they have like an array of comfy sofas, a kitchen, fridge with beers (not free) and the rooms are spacious and instead of cramming as many beds as possible they keep it spacious. Very nice host, almost every possible amenity I could think of available and great location, with a park across the street if you like a calm morning breakfast in nature. Just a few stops removed from Namba and subway is a 5 min walk. Again, so far the best hostel I stayed in and would definitely recommend it.

It was very comfortable and nice guests, the owner is always around if you need anything. There was a nice public bath near by too!

United StatesThe curtains let through some light around the bed- but not something that was that bothersome!
This place is such a gem- it's one of those spots you can truly feel "at home." So many sweet little touches and amenities included in the price- even though I didn't use many of them I really appreciated the extra services they included. I wanted to extend but they were full. Don't hesitate to book this spot!

SwitzerlandGiven the price, there’s really nothing to complain about. Of course, it’s a very simple accommodation − it’s a hostel, after all.
The staff was very kind and helpful. Both the common areas and private spaces were clean. The price is very low, making it a great option for those looking for an affordable yet clean and functional place to stay. There are several useful amenities available, such as laundry facilities, a kitchen, and even free towels. The location is also quite convenient − about a 7-minute walk from the nearest metro station, which gets you to central Osaka in just 10 minutes.

This cozy hostel is run by a solo host — perfect for solo travelers looking for a warm and personal stay. The owner ken is a nice, friendly person. He sits along with everyone in the common area at night. He's a friendly person full of stories — always happy to share and connect with others.
