Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

DenmarkEverything was so nice - just be aware that there is no convenience store nearby. But we just shopped in the city and brought home, it was not a problem. And if you don't want to do that, there are cafes and restaurants near the ocean :-)
The hosts were absolutely lovely and friendly and helpful! They were quick to answer any questions we had and made us feel very welcome and comfortable. The house is big, the kitchen has everything and more if you want to cook yourself. It is a ten minute walk from the station and 15 minutes from the beach.

ThailandThe house is modern and well equipped with all you need. Love the wash and dry machine. Asumi, her husband and daughter were super nice. They even offered a trip to the supermarket by their car. The packing space is a bit difficult for Alphard, and the kitchen is upstairs. The rest is perfect for group of 7.

United KingdomPerfect stay in Kamakura, so much space for our family of 5. Asami met us on arrival to show us the inn. Give us a small tour and how to use the appliance etc. Kept in touch with us throughout our 2 day stay. Was only a 6 min walk from the station. Asami gave us loads of information for things to do in the area, even went out of her way to look at car and bike rentals for us which was fab 😊 The inn itself was perfect, kitchen had everything you need, swing in the living area which was a big success with our daughter! beds were super comfy, Asami made check in and check out easy. We could of easily spent a week here if we had the time! Was sad to leave so soon. Great host, it was lovely meeting you and your daughter. When we come back, we will come here again in heart beat ✨✨

United StatesNothing negative to say.
We absolutely loved the house. There was a ton of room for everyone, and the hosts thought things through. The host that met us was very friendly and helpful. The house is in a neighborhood so it's quiet and peaceful. It's located a quick walk to the train station where a quick ride takes you to tons of restaurants, etc. If you don't feel like venturing out then we actually got food delivered. The host even let us check in early once she was done cleaning and that was so nice as we had luggage with us.

IndiaKensuke Sato san and Asami San were very helpful from the time of the reservation until the time we left. The house was exceptional, the checkin and checkout process very smooth, all the arrangements and explanations of the operations were very clear. The house was very clean and had enough things to help make our stay very comfortable. I only wish we had planned more number of days.

AustraliaIt was very hard to fault.
The house is spacious and thoughtfully designed to take advantage of the views of the forest and gardens surrounding the house. It's in a lovely peaceful neighbourhood, a few minutes walk from Gokurakuji train station. The owners were extremely generous hosts and even invited us to dinner during our stay. We would love to stay again at Gokurakuji House.

AustraliaThere was nothing we did not like, only one small problem is there is no 7 eleven or convenience store nearby, so bring food shopping from elsewhere.
Beautifully spacious presented house and close enough to walk the train station. Lots of room for the family but apart from the main bedroom, which has 2 x single beds, other beds were mattresses on the floor, however when in Japan :) Owners are very friendly and accommodating. They picked us up from the train station when we arrived as it was raining and offered to cook us dinner on our last night. Very quiet and beautiful area.
