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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

IndonesiaThe only downside was that, while shuttles run from the house, figuring out how to return can be quite confusing. However, this is more of a general issue with transportation in Hakuba rather than something related to the host.
The host was fantastic—very kind and responsive. The place itself is cozy and comfortable, with beautiful views. Having a shuttle stop right near the house was also a great convenience.

AustraliaYasen and his staff treated us to a very comfortable stay. Yasen was kind enough to pick us up and drop us off to the bus station on arrival and departure. The room and beds were comfortable, communal facilities clean, and staff incredibly friendly and helpful. The included breakfast and coffee was a great way to kick off the day before hitting the slopes, and the shuttle stop was just around the corner. Yasen also provided helpful information on timetables for shuttles to and from the different resorts. Just a 10min walk from Echoland as well for those seeking dining and nightlife options. Would highly recommend the FunnyInn and will be back in future!

AustraliaNothing! Everything was great!!!
Our experience at Funny Inn was absolutely fantastic, and what truly made it special was the exceptional kindness of the hosts and staff. We stayed for three nights, and the communication beforehand was seamless—clear instructions and prompt responses made everything easy. We were also so grateful for the complimentary pick-up after traveling across Japan with four kids. The property itself is wonderfully cozy, immaculately clean, and well-maintained. It's conveniently located near a supermarket and the shuttle bus stop, and we even enjoyed a pleasant 20-minute walk from the Happo Ski Resort. We had two rooms that were perfect for our family, fully equipped with everything we needed. Breakfast was simply DELICIOUS! Every morning offered something new, freshly cooked right before us. The ability to access the kitchen was a huge bonus, especially with food allergies in the family. A special mention to Yasen, who went above and beyond to assist us when one of our children fell ill, even taking us to the doctor. Tayla and Tessa were also outstanding—they were always ready with a smile and eager to help whenever we needed anything, really cherished our little chats. Overall, Hakuba was the highlight of our Japan trip, and Funny Inn played a huge role in making it unforgettable. We can't recommend it enough!

AustraliaNothing it was all amazing
All the staff were so welcoming and kind at the property!! On arrival, we were met by Yasen the owner who made time to give us a tour of the Inn. Yasen ensured that we settled in promptly and made ourself feel at home. The morning breakfast that is provided was absolutely delicious with additional cooking facilities available throughout the stay. The private bathroom with onsen allowed for a great relaxing evening after a day on the slopes (not to mention the amazing view from the bathroom window). When we return to hakuba the only place we will stay is the funny inn. Thank you Yasen! We really appreciate you and all the staff for making our trip amazing!!

AustraliaThe location was OK but it was a bit of a hike to the snow (about 20 minutes) if you wanted to get an early start and not brave the super-crowded bus. Similarly the convenience stores were all about 1km away in all directions but with some planning this wasn't too bad.
The rooms were comfortable and roomy by Japanese ski-resort standards. You could use the kitchen if required so you could self-cater if you wanted to save a few bucks. Breakfast was great - a set meal like bacon and eggs on toast and changed most days but I am sure that dietary requirements could be catered for. The onsen was small but we never had to wait long. Staff were friendly and helpful.
