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 reviewThe staff and owner were very helpful and looked after us. The mornings were peaceful and really nice to sit out on balcony.
Staircase to room is unfinished concrete and awkward.

Verified reviewOur stay at Felicity Inn was wonderful - from the delicious morning breakfasts to the perfect location it has been 5 stars. As three female travellers we felt so safe and comfortable with the surrounding area and absolutely adored the owners who make you feel so welcome and at home in the very clean and comfortable section of the Inn. The lovely lady who cooked us breakfast every morning was so kind and generous, and the man who also owns the inn was kind enough to hook us up to a safari tour and transport for our further travels. All around amazing place to stay - such a lovely room with incredible views and amazing location close to Ella centre. The whole family were so lovely - would recommend to anyone visiting ella in the future ❤️
Thanks lot 🙏 see your next time❤️

Verified reviewThe room was spacious and cool. It had a lovely balcony with views of Ella. There was so much food for breakfast which we loved! The staff were super helpful and went the extra mile to make sure we had a great stay. They organised a moped for us as well as a trip to the National Park along with a packed lunch. This was our favourite place we stayed in Sri Lanka!

Verified reviewThe family were so friendly and helpful. The property is in a nice location, surrounded by trees, on the edge of town. We left early in the morning for the train and Saman drove us to the station and packed us a takeaway breakfast. Thank you!
The bathroom is a little basic, but perfectly fine.

Verified reviewIt is an amazing place with even more amazing views over Ella Rock. Just a 10-minute walk from the town, this is the perfect getaway to relax and explore the region. 👀 The bed was super comfy and the breakfast was delicious! The 3 nights we stayed here suited us perfectly! 👌🏻 Thanks for hosting us and sharing the Good Vibes! 🍀 Cheers Tommy & Marthe 🤙🏻

Verified reviewLocation is excellent, about 10 mins walk from Ella town centre, and with a beautiful view down the mountain pass. The breakfasts were delicious. The owner was very helpful, welcoming, and gave us a free lift to the station when we left. The room was very clean, and the WiFi worked well.
We had a log cabin type room, which had an enormous bed but not much room for anything else, nowhere to hang anything up. There was a kettle, but the flex did not reach the plug. There was no soap or coffee when we arrived, but they were provided on request. There were other rooms at the property, maybe they have more space or better facilities.

Verified reviewSaman and his family were so welcoming and helpful ... an amazing spot with views straight on to Ella Rock and Little Adam's Peak. Monkeys performed acrobatics in the trees in front of our balcony ...even stole our peanuts and eat them in front of us... such a great spot. Easy to walk to 9 Arches and Adam's Peak and in to town. Very quiet as up a back lane and the breakfast was the best we had in Sri Lanka... a great find!

Verified reviewSo peaceful and quiet at the Felicity Inn surroundings made you feel like you were in the jungle even though you were a very short walk to the centre of Ella. Room was very spacious and clean, tea and coffee facilities in your room as well as bottled water. Breakfast was absolutely amazing and the hosts were brilliant couldn't do enough for you. Would have stayed longer if had the time.
There was nothing not to like - just need to be aware the property is not suitable for a car to drive right up to the property.
Thanks lot 🙏 see you next time ♥️

Verified reviewOwners have made a real effort with the property to make it really nice; lightning, wood paneling, lovely balcony etc. Was sorry to only spend a short time there. Family really lovely.
Tricky location, especially at night if alone, but owner on hand with tuk tuk so wasn't an issue.

Verified reviewOur room had a cute cottage vibe and shaded terrace facing the valley away from the town center. The breakfast was delicious and very generous. The host gave us some good recommendations and offered to take us to the train station for free.
The wifi was quite unreliable. Sound insulation is a bit poor, but it didn’t matter much because it’s quiet around the area anyway.
