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.).

Only stairs and a lot of them. Only one female and one male shower.
The ROOFTOP! The view on mt Fuji is incredible. Nice kitchen with everything that you need. Clean. Eventhough it’s an pretty old building. Check in was in a hotel around the corner but that was no problem.

I’ll admit this was partly on me—I didn’t research the actual location well enough before booking. The name and photos gave me the impression it was closer to Mt. Fuji’s main attractions, but that wasn’t the case. This guesthouse is quite far from the key sightseeing spots. That said, the room itself was clean and well-maintained. Just be sure to double-check the location if your goal is to be near the main areas around Mt. Fuji.

There is no elevator and you have to bring the suitcase to the fourth and fifth floor manually. The location is a bit far from the station.

The dorm is very spacious and the beds are comfortable. Also the toilets and bathrooms are quite clean, but staff needs to be more present and attentive towards other areas such as sweeping/dusting the common areas, and cleaning the kitchen.

When you take a shower, you may have to jiggle with the handle to make sure it stays hot. Also, they told us we would have to move beds and didn’t come to clean the room, so the trash got full. We didn’t end up moving beds, so it was a little weird. But also not a big deal, I think it was just some miscommunication.
It was really comfortable and nice little place. Really quiet and the place was kept clean. I would stay again.

The narrow entrence between the houses, could use some more light in the night and some wood repair at the ground.
The check in was in a nearby hotel “arcade”and the stuff was very friendly and let us check in earlier than 4 pm, the guesthouse is “new “,located at the 4th floor in an old warehouse. It’s nice equipped and clean . From the room we had a nice view at mt Fuji .

Firm bed. Guesthouse is located on the fourth floor and there are only stairs.
Check-in was effortless and everything is new and modern. I stayed for the view and it was 100% worth it. I watched the sunset from the roof. It would be nice if there was more patio furniture on the rooftop. There was a lot of information and directions on how to use the amenities in the hostel.

It was kind of cramped, not much room for bags in the room. A little bit of a pain to get to from the Shinkansen. Sometimes it felt a little "DIY." Hard to get up the spiral staircase.
Very good price. Once I got used to how the property was set up, I realized that it was a good value for the money. Excellent view of Mt. Fuji from the top.

Staff could be more present at the reception. Not enough kitchen equipment as we needed to cook.
Very helpful staff when they were present at the reception. Everything was very clean, the bedroom was comfortable for the four of us. Good value for money, without them we wouldn't have visited the Fuji area as everything is quite more expensive than this. Not every guest house allows kids, really happy that they allowed us.

Slightly inconveniently located if you want to do daytrips. Just because you have to take a special train, that doesn't come very often, to get to the closest main station.
Very clean and cozy environment with nice facilities. The beds are great with a lot of space for your luggage. The view from the rooftop is AMAZING!!! And very close to the train station. Overall a great place.

It was a bit challenging to communicate with the team as all the messages and instructions about how to get there were in Japanese only. When I turned up in the very narrow alley that leads to the door downstairs I had a bit of a worrying moment as noone was there and I had no wifi. But they buzzed me in when I rang the bell, and someone arrived reasonably quickly to tell me which bed was mine etc. Location is also a bit of a challenge as the bus from ShinFuji takes almost an hour to get there.
Nice design, very comfy beds and a fabulous view of Fuji from the rooftop...main challenge is getting there...
