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.).

JapanVery clean, a bit uphill so if you're worried about tsunamis, it's actually good. The beach is still a walk away but it's definitely feasible. Extremely good value at the price I've paid.

BrazilIt is not walking distance from the beach. So definitely need to go by car. But there is a big parking area near the hotel, so it was fine for us.
Rooms are clean, the bedding too. New AC in the room and spacious. Staff was friendly. And the breakfast for ¥500 was worth it.

BrazilBreakfast is not included but it's only 500 yen and it's a great breakfast for the price. The accommodation is simple but this is all you need when you will spend the whole day at the beach exploring.

PhilippinesThere was nothing to not like except maybe that the walk up to the place can be quife confusing if you're just relying on google maps, and tiring since it's uphill. But that's not really an issue on the accommodation's part. It can also be argued that the charm of the place is because of it's location.
The staff were the best and the kindest. They were very helpful in all our needs from the shuttle to and from the hotel, the check-in, the food, and everything else. The place is also clean and very comfortable. Although there are no near konbinis, you can buy food and drinks in the place which is very convenient. Lastly, the mountain view and the surroundings of the place was very refreshing and beautiful.

JapanUnfortunately the “western breakfast” was already unavailable when I tried to reserve, so I got the traditional Japanese breakfast and it was a nice surprise, with good variety!

JapanIt’s not bad, but if you’re coming here by train or on foot, make sure to bring everything you need like food and other stuff in one trip. The place is uphill, so walking back and forth can be tough. We asked if breakfast was available, but unfortunately, they didn’t have it at that time.
The room was spacious, and the air conditioning worked well. The fridge and TV were both working, too. The mountain view was really nice. I also got to have fun without getting scolded at night, haha. The person who gave us the keys was easy to talk to and very kind. We also found out that you’re allowed to do te hanabi (handheld fireworks) outside the building, which is a nice option.
