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.).

United KingdomDesperately needs mosquito nets on the bed. Situated next to a lake so lots of them around - we had about 15 in our room on the first night which was such a shame as it was all perfect apart from that!
Gorgeous rooms - spacious with comfortable beds, garden is beautiful and peaceful. Good distance between Galle Fort and beaches too but definitely would recommend having a car if you stay here! Free water refill & laundry too which was very useful

United KingdomCommunication at check-in and throughout our stay could have been better. When we checked in, we were just given the key. We weren’t told about breakfast times so I forgot that our booking even included it. We then received two texts and a call asking why we weren’t at breakfast. We also went searching for a kettle for hot water in the evening as we weren’t aware a locked door in the room was access to a kitchen. Perhaps if this was clarified as check-in or if there was an information card in the room then these issues wouldn’t have happened. This property has so much potential.
I agree with other reviews that this property has so much potential. - The room we stayed in was large with a/c and a very comfy bed - The shower was also great - The property sits right by a lake and it’s quite a unique setting - Well located away from the main road so you don’t hear traffic. This is replaced by the sounds of nature - Comfy chairs on the veranda

United KingdomThe breakfast was pretty bad with no selection . Lack of furniture in bedroom even though bedroom was very large by standards. And the only seating area was on the balcony, which was shared by complete strangers next door !!
Very clean and modern with lovely balcony (however this was a shared balcony)

CanadaNothing really. An information sheet in the room or sent by message through Booking.com would be helpful though for arriving guests (wifi information, where to find drinking water, what time breakfast is available, etc).
One of the best places we've stayed at in Sri Lanka! - Room was very clean, big and spacious. Big wardrobe as well with lots of storage and hangers. - Property is off the main road so we had slept soundly each night as it was super quiet. The bed was big and very comfortable. - The A/C and fan worked perfectly. - Shower was amazing and had unlimited hot water with tons of pressure. Shampoo, shower gel, hand soap and bath towels all provided. - Breakfast was different and delicious each morning. We could watch monkeys in the trees while eating on the top floor. Property is gated and felt very safe. The owners were very kind and helpful with anything needed. Would definitely stay again!
