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 reviewStaff were great! The rooms were basic but clean. Location was perfect! Great restaurant, we recommend the Homemade Brownie and Ice Cream!
No hot water. It was noisey at night from the restaurant playing their music. A shelf or hanging space would have been good in the rooms.

Verified reviewSpacious room with AC, fantastic location, and the friendliest staff! We spoke to everyone who worked there and even made friends with Lion (the cat), and they truly made our stay memorable. At one point we struggled getting cash out, and the owners took us into the city without second thought to help us. Fabulous food and drink too. Couldn’t recommend this place more!

Verified reviewAmazing location just off the uppuveli beach near fernandos bar. Rooms were super clean and lovely place to stay. Very good value for money as well - highly recommend this place for anyone wanting to stay in Uppuveli.
Only thing is the music was a bit loud in the evening when I was trying to sleep. Maybe this could’ve been quieter after 11pm

You aren’t going to find a better location as this is right in the middle of lots of restaurants with beach access right across the street. Would stay here again with no hesitation. A/C, WiFi, friendly staff, comfortable beds, great location. Loved it!

Verified reviewThe location is perfect - very close to the beach and restorants, helpful staff, strong wi-fi - very convinient for the remote work.
It would be nice to set up some extra hangers or shelves, also there was jus one plug. But the most negative moment were the repair works the restoran. This kind of things should be anounsed in advance, one of the reason to chouse this place were the good reviews concerning the cafe, but in fact it was in renovacion. There were no pleasure to sit on the terrace due to smell and noise during the day. The discount was given after insisting only.
Dear Alexandra, We would like to apologize for the inconvenience caused due to ongoing interior/construction work during your stay. We were supposed to finish off work before your stay, however due to unavoidable circumstances construction work was delayed. We understand that we were not able to provide our usual services and we are extremely sorry. Since our construction work is over and our restaurant is back in operations we would like to invite you and your family for a complimentary meal. Regards, Asanka
