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.).

United StatesThe beds are very firm, they could use another mattress on top of what’s there & 2 pillows would be nice.
I love this place, stayed for nearly 3 weeks here. Views, kitchens, cool historic home, big rooms, firm beds (typical Japanese style) , clean, lovely hosts & free range chickens. Very simple rooms & only 4. It had everything I needed. It is on a hill, with a 20 minute walk to the closest store, so definitely have a car. Also please be quiet …respecting quiet times in the morning & evenings, the walls are thin , TV & talking from your neighbors can easily be heard. Also on booking all 4 rooms are listed as one, so you’re not sure which one you’ll get… I would ask for the room at the end with the big ocean view if you want full sunset view, which also means full sun in the Summer. If you want more mountains & a cooler room ask for the one closest to the stairs. The middle rooms are actually the biggest & best for groups of 3 or more. All have fantastic views & private kitchens & baths.

GermanyComfortable accomodation, with an incredible view owned by a sweet couple. Need to keep in mind that accomodation is high up in the hills (hence the great view), but requires personal vehicle to go up.

Hong KongThe bathroom was too small, my thighs always hit on the tissue holder when I turned around.
Spacious room, big balcony with gorgeous sunset view, well-facilitated kitchen, lots of small insects but mosquito meshes installed and electric insecticide machine was available in the room. Very nice couple running the residence, though they were speaking Japanese but we were able to communicate with translation app. Free parking, need to drive up on hill. There are two routes to go up, the one I marked with red cross (in attached photo) is steeper, narrower and easily lost, so go for the blue high-lighted route when go up and down the hill.

Hong KongThe greatest sea view of all time from the balcony. You don’t have to go to Sesoko island to enjoy the sunset. The owner lady even offered to drive me around when I didn’t get to rent a car. Really appreciate the kindness!

SingaporeThe location is not ideal if you want to eat in the town. The roads to and from the property is also narrow and steep, and at night there are no street lights at all.
The host was nice and the place is clean, spacious and comfortable. The amenities were also very complete with basic cooking appliances if you need to heat up food.

Great sea view from your room! Lovely staffs. The location need rental car, and the room's walls are thin, so sometimes you can hear people's talking from your neighbor's room. Even so, I love to feel like somebody was the guesthouse.

FranceIt is a the top of 20 mins walk hill. I would recommend only if you have a car. No convenience stores around.
I had a great stay. The owner was very nice and drove me to the accommodation and dropped me at the city center when I checked out. I was very nice of her to do that. I really appreciated it. Very good price for a very spacious room/apartment with wonderful sea views. You even have a big terrace to enjoy the views. Everything needed in the flat and everything was very clean. The area is very quiet. I have 2 restaurants near by the house and a vending machine, in case you need it.

Hong KongNo dryer; the air is damp so it's difficult to dry clothes. A bit far from convenience stores if you don't have a car.

Hong KongIf you hates insects, it is not ideal. But getting closed to the nature relaxes your heart!
We can enjoy beautiful sunset every evening. We made breakfasts ourselves in a little kitchen with adequate utensils, eating while enjoying the sea view. The location is on a hill, away from town, but it was only 15-20 minutes drive to the aquarium.

United KingdomWater wasn’t available in the room and needed to ask the host to turn on the wifi on our 2nd day. These were very small inconveniences. Highly recommend.
Biggest room we have had in Japan. The views are incredible. Having a small kitchen was great and a nice change to be able to cook. The owner offered to drive us to the supermarket and back, which was very kind. The hotel is close to a couple of great cafes / restaurants, which offer amazing sunset views. Easy to get to the ferry pier which takes you to outer lying islands for day trips.
