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.).

RussiaThe room windows face the restaurant and the shoreline where there are people all the time, so we had to keep the curtains closed all the time
Ocean view from the room. First line (but this part of the beach is not for swimming because of waves and rocks) Large and fresh room with air conditioning and fan. The air conditioner is properly installed and does not blow on the bed, so you can safely sleep at night and not catch a cold Good breakfasts which include fresh juice and tea and hearty meals There is a supermarket one minute walk away Good restaurant on site Welcoming and friendly hotel staff who help with any request You can give your clothes for washing - 700 rupees per kilo Generally good wi-fi There are a huge number of cool restaurants within five minutes of the hotel The bathing beach is about a 10 minute walk along the shore. You can meet turtles and go snorkeling there

Brazilthe air conditioning made strange noises at night and couldn't handle the 30 degree heat that was at night. It would be enough if they provided a good fan.
the room is literally on the beach! Waking up and sleeping to the sound of the waves is truly fantastic! the shower is wonderful and the food in the restaurant is delicious! unfortunately, not all the staff speak English, which makes interaction a little difficult (so everything I wanted to ask I used the booking platform and they responded promptly) but this does not alter the service provided in any way, they were very kind to They let me leave my bags at the hotel while we waited for the train that would leave later! the bathroom I think was the cleanest I saw in Sri Lanka, thank you very much to the whole team, I hope to return one day!

United KingdomThe A/C wasnt the best and worked JUST enough to make room cool. Whilst the rooms were huge, not the most modern. Thought they could make much more of the 2 sea facing rooms to justify extra price.
Fantastic location in Hikkaduwa, rooms steps from beach, great staff and a really popular beach restaurant which serves great food. Huge rooms. (2 sea facing, 1 facing a wall)

HungaryThere was no trash bin. It is weird because it should be a very basic amenity of a room. Next to that, there was no shower gel.
It is located super close to the beach. You step out from your room and after a few steps, you are already standing in the sand. The beach and ocean can be seen from the bed and it is very nice to get up in the morning with this view.

United KingdomStaff were not very friendly and I had to keep asking them questions as they did not cover things when I first arrived. I even had to ask for a room key because they didn't provide me with one. Always felt like I was bothering them. Room I was in looked out straight onto the restaurant so I had to keep my curtains closed at all times so could not enjoy the view.
Lovely big, spacious room. Big, comfortable bed. Bath and shower with hot water. Breakfast trolley in room with free tea, coffee and water. Big closet for clothes. Safe for valuables. Room service and the food was delicious. Great location in Hikkaduwa.
