How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewGood size apartment with kitchen and dining table as well as clothing washing machine
The access to the apartment is a bit convoluted and one needs to walk up a staircase which is not at all practical with luggage. There was only one window for the apartment.
Thank you very much for choosing illi Com Shimokitazawa from among the many accommodation options available, and for sharing your valuable feedback. illi Com Shimokitazawa only has an elevator up to the 4th floor, so guests staying on the 5th floor will need to use the stairs from the 4th floor. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. Our hotel is designed to accommodate up to 8 guests comfortably, making it highly recommended for families and groups. The laundry dryer and full-sized kitchen are also ideal for long stays. illi stays is an unmanned hotel that combines the comfort of home with the hospitality of a hotel.

Verified reviewWe loved everything about the property! It was so stylish, big and comfy and perfect for our stay in Tokyo. Shimokitazawa is such a fun area, there is cafes, bars, shopping (lots of vintage) and the train line right on your doorstep! You are spoilt for choice. Beds were super comfy, the bathroom configuration was perfect for a group, one end was a toilet with a door and other end was a shower with a door and the huge double sink/bathroom space in the middle. We ate out mostly but the kitchen seemed very well equipped! Would definitely stay again!
Would have loved an iron! We washed some clothes but then couldn’t wear them because they were so creased. Also perhaps a secondary lock inside as the Apt level is accessible by the public (and there is bar/live music venue on weekends on the floor below) just for an added layer of security! In saying that I never felt unsafe and never saw anyone else other than guests on our floor.

Verified reviewThe space, the atmosphere, the easy check on in and check out. Helpful staff to communicate with. Very charming little suburb to explore.
These may not bother others but were troublesome for all three in our party. Very bright painting at night which illuminated the room and the aircon system/fans are very loud (not the ones you can control) but the ones that run continuously as part of the building. Very strong cigarette smoke. I understood the that these nicotine fumes were coming from the floors below (not illi Com accomodation and guests). It set off my asthma which was hard to manage in this environment and the scent was very obvious at times which made the stay slightly uncomfortable. We done our best to manage this ourselves. Next time we will stay at illi Amu being a newer site should have fewer of these issues.

Verified reviewGreat location, easy checkin, and really well decorated good sized location. A few people have mentioned the shower is small - which is totally true - but I think they did a good job with the space for the bathroom. It allows privacy and has room for someone to get dressed outside the shower while others are using the sink or toilet. The added laundry was a huge plus too. It is ONE machine that takes more than 4 hours to run, so don't try to do a "quick load" - but it was very nice to have since I had been traveling for a few weeks. Additionally, my partner and I are vegan, and there were so many great vegan restaurants nearby AND an organic grocery store open till 10 pm! Huge plus!
My only gripe was with the group people staying above us. It *was* golden week, but it sounded like there were a ton of people up there with different sleeping schedules. They did not respect the quiet hours, and we could hear footsteps, banging, and yelling from our bed. We ended up putting on white noise on our phone most evenings in order to get some rest. I'm all for people having a good time on their vacations, but not till 2 am and starting up again at 6 am. We were there one night after the loud neighbors had left, and the noise level was actually very reasonable - normal street noise, but no yelling or banging. One thing the property might do is add some more rugs or noise dampening on the fifth floor so that the folks staying on the 4th floor can have a little more quiet in the case of loud neighbors like this.
