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.).

AustraliaWould 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.
We 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!

United StatesMy 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.
Great 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!

Great place located in Setagaya - right in the thick of shops and eateries. Conveniently located within short walk of subway station, with numbers shops and eateries to explore. Short subway ride to Shibuya. Self check-on worked out without problems. Hosts were generally very responsive via email.

China- The entrance was sorta hard to find and walked past it for the first two days we stayed there, so a more conspicuous sign may be needed. - Google Map guided us onto a steep slope when we first arrived so we were worried about moving around with large suitcases. - Sorta loud at night - Not enough space above one of the beds and narrowly missed hitting my head when climbing up.
The location is close to the metro station and there are many second-hand shops and restaurants in the area, so very convenient. The room was surprisingly big for a Tokyo hotel room and way exceeded our expectations in that regard, with a small living room and a large table. It was quite clean and comfy by my standards.

AustraliaDidn't like the bathroom, that is a real let down for me. The shower, is a sort of plastic shower like in a motorhome. Seriously not to the standard of all the hotels with stayed over 3 weeks. The bathroom is big but not well thought through. The + is the washer dryer but that is it for the bathroom. Time to invest in proper material and design.
THE LOCATION!! Shimokitazawa is an amazing place to stay, always buzzing with cool people. Mecca of vintage shops. Direct train to Shibuya or few stops from Shinjuku. It was nice to come back everyday. Excellent ramen restaurants. We liked Illi com superior apartment 402. Very cool and big. We were 3 and found it great to have our own space at time.

The space was exactly as described and more. Loads of space and comfortable. We really appreciated that the shower had it's own room outside of the sink area so people could get ready at the same time. The instructions with pictures on how to find the place was very helpful. There is plenty to eat around too.
