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.).

United StatesCan’t think of anything.
I chose this hotel for its location, being so near to Kumamoto Castle, and shopping and restaurants. We were pleasantly surprised to find it with easy access overhead and shopping close by. The hotel is modern and clean, with friendly English speaking staff who were very helpful. The morning breakfast was great, with a view of the busy street below.

United StatesWhile the staff was professional and polite and responded appropriately to requests, there was a lack of friendliness, pleasant tones of voice, or genuine helpfulness and patience in answering questions or addressing requests. We had two days of curt, unsmiling interactions.
The location is superb. Next to tram stop, very near a lot of restaurants, not far from Kumamoto station. The hotel met expectations. Rooms were a little small.

1. Breakfast was nice, and all staff were very kind. 2. Kumamoto castle, Kumamoto city hall, the "shotengai" area (restaurant & stores etc.), Sakura-machi shopping mall & bus terminal are all within easy walking distance.

SingaporeThe hair dryer wasn't working properly although we were quickly given a new one when we told the front desk. There were brownish streaks in the toilet bowl from before we came and those didn't seem to be able to be washed away.
A good location, very close to a tram stop for easy access from the JR station. Excellent walking distance from the castle. Breakfast was a good spread that we really enjoyed, though it got a bit repetitive after a few days. Even though there were only two washing machines in the laundry area, we managed to wash without waiting and it was good to have the opportunity on this long trip. Very close to the main bus station as well which is awesome when we did day trips out.

TaiwanThe water stain is obvious and mold needed to clean in the shower space. When sitting on the toilet, unfortunately it is easy to see the stains from that angle.
The location is central to everywhere. There is even wagyu beef for breakfast. The restroom size is big with separate shower and tub. The complimentary drip coffee is good!

ChinaThere are ONLY 2 laundary machines for all the guests. It is fine and I get it. I waited for hours and got a chance to cleaning my clothes by 10:30 PM. But the pick up time is 00:30 AM. I asked the front desk to find someone pick up for me and leave them in the front desk. She just refused. So, I have to setup an alarm and wake up at mid night to pick up myself and took another 1 hour to get back to sleep again.
There are 2 launduary machines.

SingaporeThe room is small. Bed is tucked to the wall. Minimal space to move about or for luggage.
Conveniently located at the shopping district with lots of eateries around the hotel. The tram is just outside the hotel. Kumamoto Castle is just a 5min walk away. Ice machine, microwave oven and coin laundry available for guests use were a plus point. Bath and shower were great too.
