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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

EcuadorWater pressure was a little weak in shower but it was okay, taking tuk tuk to get to town but it you want a view of course this is normal
Great place to stay with a beautiful view, of course with beautiful views there are sone difficulties as it is high up, tuk tuks like to cheat you by dropping you off somewhere else and telling you , you have to walk part of the way, not true. You are better off taking tuk tuk ordered through property, they are good caring people, comfortable place, clean, breakfast is excellent, bathroom facilities were good, value was excellent, very quiet , and get to see monkeys.

Czech RepublicNothing. Only the Google maps don’t show the way right so you need to ask the owners or show it to the drivers who will take you there.
The place was great and clean with beautiful location,delicious breakfast,super nice family. The location is far from the city but it is worth it,you can take tuk tuk or taxi. Next to the place is a restaurant with good food,so you can stay there and not go to the Ella city.

TurkeyThe hotel is located high up in the mountains, about 2 km from the city. The view is amazing, but it’s a bit hard to find a tuk-tuk, and prices can be higher due to the uphill location.
The view from the room was stunning, especially with the mountains in the background. Breakfast was delicious and beautifully served with a mountain view. The owner was very friendly and helpful, making us feel truly welcome. Highly recommended!

United KingdomSlightly far from Ella town up steep mountainous roads. Tuk Tuk is required to get in and out of town however, these are abundant and cheap (£1/£2 each way).
Rooms: Amazing rooms with unbelievable view! Comfy beds, good fan, mosquito net, great shower temperature and pressure. Location: Unbeatable mountain views. Hosts: Amazing! Prepared breakfast for us everyday giving us options of omelette, eggs, fruit, toast, and more! Organised all tuk tuks for us. Cute dog!

Th room was perfect with an amazing view and clean bathroom. The host prepared us a delicious breakfast and was helpful with arranging tuktuks. It's a bit far from the main area but that's a plus in my opinion, better be quiet and peaceful in the morning and night then be in the center of chaos.

Sri LankaThe path to the location is quite narrow and only three wheels and bikes can easily travel to the location. Better if you find a tuktuk instead of coming on a van or a car.
The owner and staff were quite friendly and even helped to find traveling support for us. The rice and curry breakfast was quite tasty.

Great location for Ella rock. Really nice view from the accommodation. The breakfast was also delicious and the owner was helpful with everything, he told us the bus schedule to other cities. The room was clean and comfortable, there is hot water, no A/C, only fan, but it was enough, it’s not so hot in Ella during the night. We can really recommend this accommodation to everyone :)
