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.).

Sri LankaIt's a little hard to find, which might be a google maps issue, the first time we put in the adress it sent us 150 km away. But no worries, it is in fact in Marissa, around 4 minutes from the beach by tuk tuk.
The owners took us in around midnight as we were fleeing a roach infested hotel. We were very grateful. The room was clean and the shower had hot water! (something we discovered is rare in Srilanka). It was very comfortable.

We had a great vacation! The guesthouse is in a quiet location, nice well maintained courtyard. The rooms are spacious and comforatable, everything is new. There is not even a hint of damp or mold - which is very rare for Sri Lanka. Everywhere is very clean, every few days they clean the rooms and change towels. The hosts sometimes treated us to local fruit or food. Highly recommended!

AzerbaijanNothing at all! Everything was perfect during our stay.
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Sweet Emotion! The name truly matches the place—it’s all about sweet emotions here. We fell in love with the owners, Ganga and her husband. They welcomed us with such warmth and care that we didn’t feel like we were staying at a hotel; it felt like home. The atmosphere is so cozy and heartwarming. From the very first day, they surprised us with a beautiful gift basket filled with pineapple, bananas, cookies, and even coconuts. Throughout our stay, they treated us with coconuts, juices, and on one occasion, even a delicious breakfast as a gift. It was such a kind gesture that made us feel truly special. The room was fantastic—newly renovated, with a strong internet connection and excellent water pressure. We had no issues with water temperature or flow, which made our stay even more comfortable. The balcony was one of the highlights—we loved sitting there, especially in the evenings. The view was beautiful, and the atmosphere was so peaceful. The courtyard is charming and cozy, and the location is simply magical. It’s perfectly situated between Coconut Tree Hill and Turtle Beach Bay, just a 5-10 minute walk to either spot. This makes it an ideal location for exploring these iconic places while still enjoying the peace and beauty of the jungle surroundings. We often saw wildlife like monkeys, peacocks, and squirrels along the way, which added to the experience. For anyone planning a long stay, this is the ideal place. We stayed for 20 days and used the kitchen, which was very convenient. The place is perfect for feeling at home even when you’re far away. Thank you so much, Ganga and your husband, for your incredible hospitality, warmth, and care. We hope to return again someday! Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a cozy and unforgettable stay.

United KingdomWe loved our stay at this beautiful hotel - the best we’ve had on our travels around Sri Lanka. It was super clean, the bed was comfy and the views from the balcony were lovely. A perfect home away from home to get a good nights sleep and relax after time on the beach. Ganga and her husband welcomed us when we arrived with a coconut, which was a lovely touch. They were really helpful with anything we needed for our stay. We recommend this hotel to everyone who is planning a visit to Mirissa. We hope to come back one day!

BulgariaLovely place. The second floor is completely new. Everything is well-organised and conveniently furnished. The location is close to Coconut hill and Turtle Beach but on the other hand far enough from the noisy road. On top of that, the people who run the place are adorable. They took great care of us and our daughter.

AustraliaI liked everything
I had a lovely stay at Sweet Emotion 😍 The owners very welcoming and made me feel safe and comfortable. The room is spacious and modern and extremely clean. Great water pressure in the shower and hot which is a must form me ☺️. The bedding is very comfortable and I had great night's sleep at this place. I was only supposed to be staying 3 nights but ended up staying 6 nights as I liked it so much. It is set back from the road so you don't get noise from the traffic. It is appoximately a 10 minute walk or short tuktuk ride to Mirissa Beach which is the main area in Mirissa. Coconut Tree Hill is also within short walking distance which is one of the main attractions of Mirissa to get that famous Insta shot. Laundry is available at the property which I used and glad I did ☺️. The owners even let me have a late check out as my train was not leaving until later in the afternoon and they had availability. This was very much appreciated. I hope you enjoy your stay at Sweet Emotion as much as I did. 😊

Ganga and her family immediately made us feel welcome and provided a fresh papaya juice straight from the garden. The room was large, clean and had a lovely modern bathroom.

Sri LankaAbsolutely delightful stay in Mirissa! The accommodation was top-notch - clean, comfortable, and beautifully designed. It was conveniently located near all the tourist attractions, making it easy to explore the area. Coconut tree hill and parrot rock was in walking distance. What truly made our experience special were the owners. They were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable stay. The room was very spacious and there was a large rooftop where you can relax in the evening. They have provided us a hair dryer, two multi plugs & free WiFi.

Charming guesthouse with large clean rooms run by kind owners. Ganga made us very welcome with a fresh coconut from their garden and along with her husband took the time to talk to us upon arrival. She also helped us with aanging onward transport when we left Mirassa. We liked the location as the property is away from the busy coastal road but still only 5 minutes walk from Turtle beach and Coconut Hill. We recommend the ample beautifully cooked breakfast (available upon request). Finally, we were shown what in the near future will be a beautiful open Yoga studio to add to the property when finishing touches are complete.

NetherlandsThe only thing I could say is that they were doing some construction works, after the morning, but this is only to be nitpicking and find an answer to this question. Really enjoyed my stay here!
The breakfast was very good, fresh produce and excellent service from the staff. They are always trying to make you feel comfortable and make sure all is done well. When I arrived they gave me a fresh coconut, from their own garden, and took the time to talk to me. Besides this I felt I could ask them anything, which I didn't, but they made me feel at home there. I would definitely go here again when I visit the country again.
