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 reviewSmall but cozy and clean room in a beautiful colonial house. The owner was super welcoming and prepared incredible and abundant srilankian breakfasts during our staying. Excellent position very close to the Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi.

Verified reviewThe location was in a lovely quiet part of town. About a 25 min walk from the bustle of Anuradhpura. Make sure you hire their bikes or a tuktuk to get to the Temple attractions, it's tiring otherwise as there's such a lot of temple! Breakfast was exceptionally good.

Verified reviewExcellent location in the quiet holy district, in walking distance from Bodi Tree. While the room is very small, it is still comfortable.
Nothing.

Verified reviewThe hosts were very kind and met all our requests. The rooms were very clean, the breakfast was good and abundant. There is the possibility of washing your clothes. Definitely pick this place if you are into cycling. Ask the host for stories about his husband ;)
The room in the front of the house was a bit smaller than the other two. Give it to your friends that are not bothered by occasional insects roaming around (common in this part of the country). Still was very clean and we had a very nice stay. I can't recommend this place enough.

Verified reviewThe location is good, close to the historical area We rented bikes directly from the very friendly owners, they were very helpful with every request we had. The rooms are clean, we had good AC, comfortable beds, and warm water. The breakfast was delicious (sri lankan style breakfast) and very filling, the portions were huge.

Verified reviewThe room is too small to accommodate two people comfortably. Additionally, the space is almost entirely occupied by the bed, leaving little to no room for movement.

Verified reviewLocation was by far the best in the entire city if your aim is to explore the holy sites. Less than 10 mins by foot from the Bodhi Tree which is the heart of all attractions. The most delicious Sri Lankan home cooked breakfast that we are still thinking about. Room was simple and clean but had all we needed. Hosts so kind and friendly.

Verified reviewLovely, new and clean room with a large, king-sized bed and a spacious bathroom. Towels and complimentary bottled water included. Close to local attractions.
Note: it was hot, humid and stifling in the room because the airconditioner’s setting was locked to “fan” or a higher temperature. It was blowing hot air and we couldn’t sleep. We arrived late and checked out early the next day, so we couldn’t address it with the property.
Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear that you liked the room and the amenities. We sincerely apologize for the issue with the air conditioner and will ensure it is resolved quickly.
