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 reviewWe had an amazing stay at Suriya Homestay! The breakfast was probably the best we had during our entire trip — fresh, delicious, and made with so much care. Suriya, our host, was incredibly attentive to every little detail, making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The room was clean, and the bathroom was very spacious and spotless, which made a huge difference for us. The location is also perfect — just a short walk to the beach but tucked away enough to be peaceful. We truly felt at home here and would absolutely stay again!#coupleexploration

Verified reviewExcellent location close to the city and beach, but also very quiet. We arrived just when the poya cellebration took place and we almost hear a sound from the city. The house is in the beautiful garden with many trees and flowers. Owners are so nice and helpful! They arrange a scooter for us for fair price and breakfast was always really tasty and various. We appreciated A/C in the room and possibility of hot shower (but we didnt use it, it was sooo hot weather 😁). They also borrowed us a playing cards, that was awesome, because we forget them at home. Thank you so much for a nice stay, if we come back, we will stay in this homestay again, felt like home!

Verified reviewThis is the most lovely place to stay in Mirissa. We stayed a week, during X-mas, when it's quiet busy in Mirissa. Even though, the place itself is very quiet, well isolated (for the party-noise from the beach ;-)). The room has everything you need: good beds, closet, a bathroom with good shower and washing products, a very nice terras with many possibilities to dry your stuff, towels for the beach ànd bathroom, laundry service,... The breakfast was excellent; during those 7 days we got every morning something new, and always a lot of fruits. The host is very friendly, always ready to help and inform. It was a perfect end for our holiday (as I family). Thank you very much Suriya!!

Verified reviewThe breakfast was very good. Varies everday and always fresh fruits and juices. The facilities were clean and new. Quiet place because it‘s not directly at the main road. Although the beach is very near. The host family was friendly and helpfull. Mirissa is not too crowded. You always find a free spot at the beach or in the restaurants.
Nothing to complain about.
We are very happy that you lived with us for 5 days. Thank you very much for appreciating our service. We wish you a successful trip to Sri Lanka!!! Suriya Homestay Team.

Verified reviewWe stayed at Suriya Homestay Mirissa, a short break during our Sri Lanka trip, which is very close to Mirissa. The host was more like a friend than an owner to us. He was very kind, polite and had a very friendly personality. The breakfast was the best we have ever had. The cleanliness and size of the rooms were very good and there was a very clean bathroom. We found a high speed internet connection. We are very grateful to him and we would definitely come back. It is recommended to everyone!!!!!

Verified reviewWe got a room for a very low price. When we arrived at the end of the day, the hoster gave us a warm welcome with cool towels and passion fruit juice. A clean room and a fully equipped bathroom and a room with all the amenities. Also got a very fast and excellent Internet connection. Very quiet environment and surrounded by trees. Since it is located in the center of Mirissa, it is within walking distance to everywhere. A place that can be highly recommended for tourists visiting Mirissa.
