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.).

Bosnia and HerzegovinaCouldn't recommend this place highly enough! It's only couple of minutes walk to the main gondola and it has a great dry room and ski storage is really well laid out. The staff are super friendly and helpful. We had the optional Japanese breakfast each day which was great and amazing value. It's in a quiet part of town with very little noise but only about 3min walk to the center of town with lots of restaurants and shops. Would also recommend the hot-pot dinner they do every night.

Taiwan1. It will be better If public bath opened in the early morning for few hours and closed lately at night. 2. The room is ok for 5 adult to sleep but not enough space to open our big luggage at the same time.
1. Very close to Nagasaka Gondola. 2. Provide good quality gears with a reasonable price. 3. Free pick-up service. 4. Host and staff are very friendly to help all you need.

JapanThey actually have parking lot (on Booking.com it said no), but only available if you book the room via their homepage, so keep in mind if you come by car (overnight public parking lot is a bit far from the lodge). I think they can mention this in Booking so others will know that before making reservation. The heater in our room make noise each time it start running so it was a bit annoying in the night.
The manager can speak English so you do not need to worry if your Japanese is not good. We rented the big room with toilet and shower inside, everything is clean and necessities are fully provided. You can ask them to prepare dinner (before you arrive, using their website) and breakfast (you can ask them when you check in), the food is delicious and you can eat as much as you want. It is close to Nozawa ski's Nagasaka station so you do not have to walk so much (about 100m) to reach ski area. We rented their snowboard gears (discounted price for guess), the manager will make adjustment to make sure it's fit and comfortable for each person, and their gears are in excellent condition, so we ended up rented them for the next day even thought we only stayed there for 1 night. You can also buy ski tickets directly from them, so you can immediately enjoy the slope next morning.

It had everything you needed. The toilets and showers were so clean at any time day or night. Breakfast for 500 yen was a great start to the day. Then you had dinner which was all you could eat which cost us around $30 Australian dollars for 2 adults. Our kids are free as they are under 6 years old. It had ski hire, free washing machine and dryer. Great location a short 5 minute walk to the main gondola to ski the mountains. The owner and staff were fantastic and very attentive and helped with everything we asked. Totally recommend

AustraliaThe accommodation lacks a common area for guests to sit and relax.
Family of 5 (2 adults and 3 kids) stayed in the traditional Japanese tatami floor bedding room and it was super comfortable, the whole room was the tatami floor and nothing else apart of a mini fridge. The shared bathrooms were clean and had a good shower. They sell discounted ski passes and rent ski/snowboarding gear, the quality of their gear is exceptional, much better than what we had in Hakuba! It was super convenient to have breakfast at the accommodation. Theres also a great equipment drying room and laundry facilities. We had dinner there twice and it was delicious! The accommodation is only 5min walk to the Nagasaka Gondola and 5-10min to the village main strip where the cafes and restaurants are.

AustraliaWe came at a busy time, so lots of other guests sharing the slightly cramped common areas.
Friendly, cosy, family-friendly guest house. The owner, family and staff went out of their way to make us welcome and comfortable. Breakfasts and dinners were inexpensive and very satisfying. Gear hire was much better value than the other rental places in town (special price for staying guests) and super convenient. Everything was exceptionally clean. Highly recommended.
