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.).

United KingdomThe husband was very pushy when trying to sell you something,and didn’t like no as an answer. We had some laundry done by the host,1 received 1 item which wasn’t mine, 1 of my items was damaged and 1 item ripped, Clothes were just pushed into a carrier bag,not even folded..
Property was very nice and clean,food was amazing and half the price of any of the other places near by.

United KingdomOur family of 5 stayed here for 3 nights and we wished it could have been longer. The rooms are exceptionally clean and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and taken on the lovely roof terrace. The family that run this place are what make it special - nothing is too much trouble. We hope we will come back one day.

United KingdomFirst thing we were asked upon check in was to pay which wasn't great (but then they let us pay later). Also there was a lot of noise in the early morning. This started at 5AM already. Some came from outside and some perhaps from the kitchen or not sure where. It was not good for our sleep. Access to/from the beach best to avoid at night, you have to pass a graveyard and there is a gathering place for young slightly dodgy men. We had to make a detour one night as they behaved a little weird with us. Overall the atmosphere of the place wasn't great and we only came to sleep and did all our eating and hanging around outside. So can't say anything about the food. Finally, owner (the father) was a little pushy and made us feel uncomfortable, when we decided, also on the basis of other reviews we read, not to do anything organised by him. He then started to more or less ignore us.Maybe it was because one morning we changed our mind about having breakfast there who knows. We didn't feel like we were his guests or were very welcome in general.
The room was clean and spacious, everything worked well and all this for a very reasonable price. The son of the owner was very friendly and the location was pretty central.

IrelandThe wifi is not very good, but this is really the same all over Sri Lanka. The manager let us use the separate business wifi which was very nice of him
Comfortable bed, really good air conditioning and ceiling fan, clean ensuite bathroom, nice shower with good pressure. The breakfast is amazing. Definitely the nicest breakfast we had in Sri Lanka. Everything cooked fresh each morning (we got a tour of the kitchen to see the food being prepared) Best of all was the staff. Super friendly and helpful, gave us lots of information about yours, restaurants etc. Very helpful organizing whale watching tours and tuk tuks, but not pushy at all about doing tours if we weren't interested. The manager even warned us that whales hadn't been seen recently and if we did the whale watching tour we probably wouldn't see them. He didn't try to sell us every tour and trip etc, just gave us useful and trustworthy information. Amazing value for money.
