Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesI was not able to change the amount of total guests on booking.com and had to pay a little bit more when checking in to accommodate the number of people in the party. The information on booking.com was not correct about how many beds in each room. It said that double rooms have two beds and twin rooms have one bed, however at the hotel we found out that this was not correct. However the staff was very helpful in accommodating our requests upon arrival, even though we had to pay more.
Meal ticket was a nice touch, staff were very helpful and went out of their way to accommodate us. Rooms were clean, comfortable and quiet.

What a great idea container accommodation. Clean , comfortable everything was thought about to make for an enjoyable stay. Checking in we were offered tokens to choose from the deep freeze two prepared meals that were delicious, freshly brewed real coffee and as much green tea as you cld drink. They have a onsite laundry also in a container washing machine washes and dries all your clothes (you put in your own code so that the machine can’t be opened by anyone but you) after wearing the same clothes for a few days this was great to find. The inside of the container was fitted out with a separate shower and toilet cubicle, air conditioning, heater, TV, fridge freezer a comfortable bed. The only negative was for a family of four it would be a squeeze but for a couple it was perfect. Two containers together fitted out would be great for a family (container also had a window) didn’t make you feel claustrophobic. Highly recommend 😊there was also a seven eleven store next door

United StatesJust make sure you reserve the correct location!! They have 2. One in Iwakuni and the other in Kuga but both named R9 The Yard Iwakuni (Kuga just has Kuga added to the end)! We made the mistake of making reservations at the wrong one.
Clean and friendly staff!
