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 StatesI felt like the ambiant music, that I really like, was just a little too loud this time. It went from relaxing ba ground to slightly annoying. Very petty, maybe, but I needed to write something I didn’t like.
I have stayed here before. I was anxious to be back at Sui for its location and ambiance. It also has a kitchen, which is very important to me.

NetherlandsI was impressed by the facilities and how private the beds were in the dorm. Super comfortable stay, the owner was really nice and helpful. Free laundry and cheap drinks in the kitchen! 10/10 probably best stay in Japan! And it’s so nice to be outside of the busy area, there was still a lot to discover around.

GermanyWell designed and quiet hostel. For me the location was great as it is in a quieter, less touristy area of Kyoto. The beds were comfortable and the toilet and showers were separate but adjacent to the dorm. Therefore quiet. You can rent bikes to get around and there’s a public onsen close by approximately 5 min walking distance. Great value for money! Loved my stay!

TaiwanI found it on an architecture design media, and the space is as awesome ! My space is divided by a curtain, it’s like I have my own room. In my space, I had my own desk, lamp, tissue box, bin, window.. And the shared bathroom & toilets are also well equipped. It’s spacious and full of thoughtful details. The best hostel I’ve ever been !

AustriaLovely host, who let me check in early and kept my luggage longer. You can see effort was put into the design of the capsules and the atmosphere of the space in general. Bigger kitchen to eat or socialise. Sad I only stayed one night. Bit of a more remote location in a very cute Japanese living area, but worth a trip.

AustraliaIt’s a bit far away from the main tourists spots. If you don’t mind catching busses it’s fine though.
The staff are absolutely lovely. The facilities are beautifully kept and clean. The women’s bathroom is very safe with a code lock on the door so it feels very secure. My partner and I stayed in one of the private rooms. It was a little bit small but so lovely and clean.

GermanyThe isolation of noise is no the best as it is common in capsule / hostels in general. But ear plugs are provided and the people saying there seem to have some kind of respectful behavior to stay silent in the sleeping area. This is just a minor critic !
The host is such a lovely person! Nice design if the hostel. It can get social in the common space so you might be able to meet people to do trips together. It was very very clean. It was by far the best overall hostel experience I had so far during my trip.
