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.).

AlbaniaThe rooms and toilets are small and very basic, and some extra cleaning would be a plus.
When we arrived, we asked about hot water, and the owner explained that due to the local weather and piping, it wasn’t originally provided nor advertised online. However, the same day, he went out, bought, and installed a boiler and the shower we preferred, which exceeded all our expectations!!! The host, Babu, is extremely kind and prepares a solid breakfast to your liking. He also offered us free transport multiple times. They have two friendly dogs and a cat, adding to the charm. The accommodation is simple, like a hostel, but definitely a good option for staying especially for adventurous couples and backpackers. BTW local beach is totally close to the accommodation.

United Arab EmiratesWell, there are some little issues for me connected during the stay in this hotel such as: 1) Light breakfast. So it includes toast bread with butter and jam, watermelon, a piece of omelette and black tea. I like to eat a lot, so for me it was a little struggling to get full. 2) Hard mattresses. It was a little struggling to get asleep due to this thing That's it
Really honest and responsible owner! If you have any issues he will help you to solve any kind of problem. In addition, the owner has his comrade Baboo, which is also kind and funny, so if you are sad don't hesitate to talk to him!)) The location is pretty average. Popular Uppuveli beach located 1,5-2 km from hotel, Central Bus station Trincomalee (3 km), Railway station Trincomalee (2km). However if you wanna hang out on the beach and just take a rest, no problem, there's a beach 200 meters from hotel, so you can enjoy it;)

LithuaniaThere was no feeling of privacy, because the owner or administrator the hotel were knocking at the door too often and persistent. The bathroom door had no lock, just a hole in it and was not closing. We got some dirty towels with big old stains.
Location was good, very close to the beach and around 8 min to the bus station by tuktuk.

Italy1. In the room it’s impossible to charge the phone or anything else, because the plugs are not compatible with the world wide adapter. There is only one working plug in the kitchen outside the room. 2. Our room was full of mosquitos and without mosquitoes net. 3. It is impossible to adjust the fan’s speed which was too strong, noisy and annoying. We couldn’t sleep. 4. During the night we wrote a message to the owner explaining the issue, but he answered the day after in the evening saying sorry. 5. It was very difficult to communicate whit the owner. 6. For these reasons we left the room the day after, even if we had paid for 2 nights.
1. Location close to the centre and close to the beach

PolandThere are no mosquito nets (neither on the windows nor over the beds), which is a bit inconvenient. It could be a bit cleaner (in the room, e.g. the sink and in the kitchen). However, the biggest problem turned out to be bedbugs, which bit us severely for two nights (it was not a one-time incident). But we reported it to the host and showed him - he seemed concerned about this fact - we believe that he will take care of eliminating this problem. With great sympathy for this place and the host
The hostel is on one of the main streets, but the rooms are quiet. There is access to a fridge, stove and sink. There is a large table with chairs in the living room. Great internet - which is not common in Sir Lanka. Location close to the beach. The host is open and communicative - he is happy to talk about local customs, people, culture...

Czech RepublicThe location was close to the beach and not far to other sightseeing in Trincomalee. AC was going properly.There is also kitchen and big table available and I saw families with children who used to cook here every day or you can just make coffee or eat great Sri Lanka fruits and sit together with your friends. On the backside is small garden, where you can make your laundry dry. The Best was Babu, funny guy full of humour and energy every day, who served me nice breakfast and helped with everything I needed, even rent of motorbike for Goodyear price. @Babu, I will miss you,please send me email, that we can stay in touch and I can thank you in person, unfortunately my goodbye was due to time preassure very stressfull and I feeled sorry for that... I can only recommend this place, for me nice last days of relaxing before coming back to airport by night bus, price was also fine for my already low budget.
