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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

AustraliaThe whole place is a little tired and could do with a bit of renovation. The futons were not as comfortable as other places we stayed and are probably due to be replaced, but it's not the most uncomfortable thing we've ever slept on.
The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful even given that language was difficult at times, but google translate will get you through most conversations. We flew in and were met at the airport by their pick up staff, but be aware that check in is a strict 3pm time regardless of when you arrive, they will hold your luggage and you can spend the time exploring the area. It's a lovely river location with views either on the river side or the mountain side, we had a mountain view and loved waking up and being able to see the greenery outside the window. We travelled in rainy season, so expect lots of clouds, and rainy days during this time, very grateful for the sneaker dryer and laundry facilities. Breakfast was included in our stay and was generous, traditional and set us up well for the day. Unfortunately, we didn't get to eat dinner as we were mostly disorganised (you need to advise the day before if you want to dine in the following night), but we expect that the food would also be similar in quality to breakfast. This is a traditional Japanese hotel and we chose the traditional room - futon mattress on the floor that is packed up each morning and set up each evening by staff. The onsen was clean and water nice and hot, yakuta, slippers and shampoo, etc provided. As with a lot of more rural locations in Japan, the workforce is older, but the attention to guests is spot on, we loved meeting the cleaning staff each day and having a chat as best we could and we'd be happy to stay here again. There is a small gift shop on site and hiking gear can be hired if need be, as well as organising bento box lunches. A Co-op store is a short walk away where you can pick up snacks and light meals and anything you may have forgotten and there is a bus stop out the front to take you to local areas. If you want to explore the island further, the hotel can help arrange car hire, or in our case we hired a local guide to take us around the island and go hiking.

An authentic Japanese hotel, on the river. Had half board which is recommended. The staff was very nice and helpful, and there was a free shuttle to the airport.

We had an amazing stay at Tashiro Annex! The traditional Japanese room, baths, and food were exceptional and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The staff were very helpful - even though they don't speak English we were able to communicate with sign language and google translate and they were always willing to accommodate us. We are both vegetarians and this wasn't a problem as the chef prepared special vegetarian food for us every day. They also prepared a Bento breakfast box at 4am when we left early to go hiking! You do notice that the facilities are slightly older, but everything is clean and well maintained so that isn't a problem either. I highly recommend a stay here to anybody visiting Yakushima and looking for a traditional Japanese experience!

The staff were awesome. They are very helpful and caring and always have a smile ready for you. It’s such a delight to interact with them and you know that they will do their best to help you. Next is the location and the scenery that comes with it. It’s nestled in the mountains and every morning I wake up to the sounds of birds chirping, nice fresh air, and amazing mountain view when I look outside the window.
