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.).

IndiaNothing really. Just the place is little beaten up, but gives little traditional feel.
It was a great value for money for me. The family is quite lovely and help me with lot of information. They were so awesome that they gave a free coffee to one of my guests who visited me. I even made a friend with one of their kid. He is fun to talk to.

The host family were incredibly sweet and generous. They offered us a ride to Sigiriya rock and even to Dambulla after check out. The room itself is sufficient enough for a short stay. We had no problems at all and there was even hot water in the room.

AustraliaJust bear in mind that it’s better for your taxi to drop you off at the street, as it’s a little narrow for cars. It’s not far to walk.
It’s lovely family-run accommodation in a serene jungle environment. All facilites were comfortable, breakfast was delicious and the staff were lovely.

As soon as I arrived even thought it was last minute booking they arranged the room for me and even a Tuk Tuk for the day after in the morning and safari! The room was super clean and nice! Also the family was super lovely. I Highly recommend this place ❤️

IndiaBathroom was not up to date, bedsheets and towel were old, smelly. Insufficient lighting in the room.
The surroundings, it was fantastic with lush green forest-like garden with big trees, can watch peacocks and monkeys while you having breakfast. A small stream flowing just behind the cottage. Beautiful caring family. Awesome breakfast 👌 with lots of fruits. Very polite and helpful. Good location, 1 km from the rock palace.

United StatesThe neighbors who are playing very loud music. Minor things i did not like. Personally, i felt how it almost ruined the whole nature vibe atmosphere. It is fine for people who are in to noises other than truly appreciating the birds around chirping, bees buzzing, wild animals like elephants roaring, and the best part is hearing the flow of the water from a small creek/river in front of the room. When you are inside the room, it is very serene and peaceful. It gets quiet after late night and into the morning.
The location is wonderful. The family are warm, friendly, and helpful. There are so many trails that people could explore and visit different villages who are serving good food. Authentic Sri Lankan local food! Just be careful of the wild elephants roaming around at night.

PortugalWe loved this place so much, it was clean, comfortable and spacious. Also our room was facing the river and we could always watch the monkeys and peacocks in the trees and the fireflies at night. It was amazing!! The animals can be quite noisy tho but if that doesn’t bother you and you love the sounds of the jungle you will love this place. Besides that it’s super close to Lion Rock, restaurants and markets. The hosts are also very very nice. Super nice and friendly family always ready to help and make our stay as comfortable as possible. I truly recommend this place!!

HungaryEverything was good.
We felt like we were in the middle of the jungle, surrounded by lush vegetation, monkeys, peacocks high up on the trees, little chipmunks running around. There are plants and flowers everywhere, and there's a little river running at the end of the property. We woke up to the sound of the birds (and the peacocks). The family is very nice, they helped us with whatever we needed. The aboundant breakfast was served in a little treehouse. The room is simple but spacious, the bed is very comfortable. The place is very central, just minutes away from a great coffee shop (Barista) and a very cool restaurant (Rastarant) where you can enjoy your drink on a barge floating on the river. Sigiriya rock is a 15 mins walk.
