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 reviewHost was lovely and fast in her answers, rooms are huge and close to the beach and our destination, Wasanthas Cooking Class around the corner.
We were there off-season, and while the linens were not used, they were not new - there were dead ants all over the bed and on my pillow, there were cobwebs between bedframe and matress, and the water came out rusty red in toilet and sink! It’s not my first time in the region and I am not squeamish when it comes to insects in accomodations, but this was too much. My friends in a different room had another experience, probably this had been used more recently.

Verified reviewThe room was huge and the host family were very nice and helpful. Basic kitchen amenities to cook breakfast in the morning. Close enough to everything but far enough to be quiet at night.
Nothing much to dislike, it was what we needed and met our needs.

Verified reviewWe had a great stay here, the room was huge and had a nice balcony under cover so could sit and watch the thunderstorm roll in - or the monkeys and peacocks in the morning. The room had all we needed including a fridge. Location was great for the beach and close to plenty of restaurants. Staff were very helpful when needed, overall great stay.

Verified reviewThe hotel was perfect, the room was so clean and very spacious with nice outdoor seating. The family are so lovely and welcoming and their home/hotel is one of the best we’ve stayed at on our travels. Their dog is also so cute! We had one small problem with the hot water but they were very apologetic and made sure to fix it straight away which we appreciated. Would definitely recommend or stay here if we ever came back.

Verified reviewRun by a friendly host (Christy), the property is in a quieter part of Unawatuna yet still only a 5 min walk to the beach. Our room was very spacious (2 doubles with mosquito nets) and clean. We didn’t use it, but there is a communal kitchen for use by guests. Good value for money overall.

Verified reviewThe environment is calm. Rooms are large and comfort. Space out side the room is precious. Cleanliness of dinning area and kitchen is superb. Parking area also good.
There is no restaurant there if it will establish it is better. If there is a facility to buy refreshments it would be better.

Verified reviewWe were met by friendly and accommodating hostess. She keeps the place in clean and good condition. I didn't saw other rooms, but our room was very spacious, with lovely balcony and a fridge. Also unusual for us was a segmented lighting in the room.
Sometimes AC could make some strange noises. Seems it needs to be fixed.

Verified reviewThe place was very specious and clean. New look. There is free parking safe and open pantry to cook as well. Very good place for family and friends. Walking distance to the beach from the hotel.
The TV didn't have connection at all. Bathroom was good and clean but a small downside is slow water flow and slow draining out in the bath area.
