Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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 States of AmericaCheck-in was not until 1700, and there was no way to contact the property without a cell phone plan (I had a data only eSIM) to store luggage. Another guest had the same issue. We ended up returning to the station, and I paid for a coin locker. An alternative way to store luggage/contact the staff would be helpful in the future.
The location near JR Wakayama station and value are great. In addition, the capsules are well-maintained, spacious, and thoughtfully designed.

Very helpful staff. Easy to check-in and check-out. My first experience with "capsule" hotel. Capsule is closed with plywood doors so private is enough even you can here what is going outside.... Inside TV, sockets, headphones, enough place to sleep and put backpack inside. But not suitcase - it stays outside your bunk. It is super close to train station.

GermanyThe hostel is conveniently located in walking distance to the station. A supermarket, restaurants and convenience stores are in walking distance as well. The capsules are very modern with aircon, a small TV and even a small foldable table. The shared facilities were decent and clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed my stay a lot.

TaiwanI wasn't aware that there are no staff members working there all the time. I had hoped to store my luggage there before check-in time, but upon arriving early, I found the door locked with a sign instructing to call the staff. So, I made an international call from my phone to inform them of my early arrival. Fortunately, a staff member arrived promptly and assisted me with an early check-in, which I appreciated. In general, offering WhatsApp or Line accounts for foreigners to contact the staff would be a more convenient and friendly option.
Guesthouse kukuru is very close to Wakayama Station. It is a 5-minute walk from the station to the guesthouse. The capsule, the open area for dining, bathrooms, and shower rooms were clean and well-organized. In the open area, there is a fridge, a water boiler, and a TV, so guests can relax there. Overall, it is a good spot for solo travelers.

It was really easy to get to from the JR Wakayama Station, and there's a shopping mall and convenience store nearby, so the location is really great! Facilities are amazing and clean. The capsule itself is comfortable, with TV, clock and you can adjust the air-con as well. The staff that checked me in too was really friendly and welcoming. Truly enjoyed my stay here!
