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 reviewLocation and oceanview
The house was very dusty and appliances outdated. The mattresses on the floor was unexpected.

Verified reviewIt has all you need if you're a family travelling. It is also in close proximity to shops (via car) and is also on the main road leading towards the western and northern parts of Ishigaki island!
Nothing, it's a basic place that has all your needs - don't expect a 5 star stay and there might be lizards/cockroaches but there's bug spray available.

Verified reviewAlex was a great host. Very helpful and friendly. Location is good but you do need a hire car. Ocean view is exactly as described. I would definitely come back.

Verified reviewGreat place with everything you need. The place is spacious (for Japan) and very comfy. We did not have a car so the bikes were very useful to bike around, to the bus station or to the grocery. The view and the balcony were a great bonus. The host was also very helpful! We really enjoyed our stay :)

Verified reviewThe owners family was great, they offered us a ride to the airport on the last day and have been lovely (also, they have two adorable doggos onsite which is always a plus 😍). The location is great if you have some own transportation like a car or scooter since its pretty close to the city and to the rest of the island.

Verified reviewVery big and comfy beds and a great space to enjoy the ocean view. Away from the city so it's calm and relaxing while still close to many attractions like Banna Park. The host was extremely friendly and his son helped us check in and gave us the best recommendations so we avoid overcrowded tourist locations and saw alternative and equally as beautiful beaches. The bathroom also has a traditional soaker bathtub so it feels like you have a private onsen. Really wish we could have stayed longer but next time we visit we will definitely be staying here again!
Nothing! It was perfect!

Verified reviewThe host and his family were very friendly and gave us many genuine and unique experiences. We highly appreciate that we could borrow snorkelling equipment and life wests for the whole family. They also gave us two bikes! We enjoyed eating all our meals outside and relaxing in the hammocks.

Verified reviewAfter almost three weeks on the road in Japan, it was great to be finally staying in an apartment. Alex's house is large, well appointed, comfortable and clean. Alex and his family are great hosts, they gave us an amazing breakfast and he also was so nice to drive us to the airport on our final stay. It couldn't have been better!
Nothing. The one word of caution I'd share for fellow taller people is that the bicycles aren't exactly fit for those who are above 1.75m of height. I think it's a problem common throughout Japan, so it's not something I'd hold against the property (especially as the bikes are provided for free!) but they might be a bit uncomfortable if you're riding long distances.
