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.).

Fantastic breakfasts overlooking the beautiful mountains surrounding Ella! Host was charming and very helpful, he brought round the cats and puppy for our kids to meet which they loved. It's nice and quiet compared to the madness in Ella's main strip, just a few passing Tuktuks :) You can easily walk down to Ella (and get a tuktuk back if the walk is a bit steep for you). There are restaurants very close by in Waterfall road, a yoga class and spa treatments further down - everything you could ask for.

BelgiumYou are close to nature so some insects during breakfast.
Price/Quality this was almost unbeatable. The rooms were spacious and clean. Comfortable beds with a good musquito net. The view fantastic and the host was very friendly. On top of that the breakfast was.... wow! It's a 10-15 minute walk to Ella and you can walk over the train rails.

Host was brilliant, couldn’t do enough for us and the delicious breakfast was different every day which was great as we got used to the local cuisine! Lovely balcony area with stunning views. Tea on arrival as well as help arranging tuk tuks.

BulgariaWe loved our stay in Ella Infinity View. The hosts were so welcoming and sweet, they arranged tuk-tuks and laundry for us. The breakfast was amazing, and they made sure it has variety for our stay. Views from the front porch were breathtaking. The accommodation is on a side street 10-15 mins walk from the main road. It is steep at places but okay to walk.

Very kind and helpful owners. We got tea and biscuits when we arrived. It was very good breakfast with fresh fruit and local dishes and pot of tea. Clean room, very nice view. The owner arranged us scooter and carried our luggage.

United StatesEven though outside the city - the tuk tuk volumes can be annoying with their noise early in the morning.
Loved the location away from town. Rooms have amazing views looking out at the mountains and sunrise. Breakfast was very good and the choices almost too plentiful. Hosts offered tea/coffee on arrival and when we returned each day. Super helpful. Good hot shower and very comfortable bed.

United KingdomTo be honest I was not sure about the place when I arrived because it was raining heavily, some building work around and also seemed very far from town in the taxi. But when the clouds went away you have an incredible view, and you can walk to town in about 15mins on the railway track (town is noisy with no real views so it's better to stay outside it I think). The building work next door was never disturbing and the room was big and nice inside with warm shower too. Each of the four rooms has a terrace where you can sit and enjoy the view, and where you will be brought a massive breakfast of fruits and various other tasty things. Hosts were very friendly and helpful, I was sad to leave :(

PortugalIt's right next to the road which means that tuk tuks and scooters ride by very early around 6 in the morning and they are super noisy, so if you are a light sleeper like me, it might be a problem (even if you have earplugs). I tried to negotiate a ride from the train station but the tuk tuk drivers either wouldn't take me or wanted to charge me double, so in the end, I had to drag my heavy suitcase up a really steep hill and ended up damaging the wheels in the process due to the potholes. This is not the owners' fault of course, but it's something you should bear in mind in case you need a tuk tuk to stay here.
Charming place with a wonderful view of the landscape. Lavish breakfast in the front porch every morning was the best way to wake up! Owners are very friendly and always willing to help out with suggestions, directions and information. The room is very big and comfortable. The mosquito net is a bonus. Had no issues with the temperature or pressure of the water in the shower. At night the temperature drops, but they provide warm blankets. Good location close to the train tracks where you can go on a couple of different hikes. Wifi was surprisingly fast and reliable. Great value for money and beautiful surroundings! I can definitely recommend this place.
