Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

SingaporeMy door knob was loose on both sides, my door could not open properly, it got stuck at about 45 degrees due to uneven flooring. Spotted a flying cockroach in my room. Window in the toilet was left opened so I was bitten by mosquitoes through the night.
Location is superb, within walking distance from the railway station and to Jaffna Market. There is also a restaurant that is very popular with the locals, associated with the hotel. Great food! Staff is friendly but not always at the reception.

United KingdomWhen I arrived the downstairs area looked like a building site and reception was a little makeshift stand to the left. I nearly didn't check. Staff said that work and therefore noise would only be during the day, however I can state that I heard power tools been used at 9 pm and I was on the 3rd floor. They are clearly refurbishing the whole of the downstairs section, which is the reception area and the restaurant, which I'm sure will be great when finished. See pics. This was mid July 2024.
Good size room, good Aircon. Good hot shower with good pressure.

AustraliaThe whole hotel is more like a backpackers hostel not a hotel at all. Be very cautious when booking here as the tv doesn’t work, rooms and bathroom with mould and very dirty, really needs and good clean with bleach to get rid of the smell and dirtiness. Beds and dated need a refresh and new mattress as you sink into the bed when sleeping. A lot of the rooms need new bathroom fixtures such as new handles for taps and toilets need to be fitted with proper toilet seats as the rooms we had the toilet seat did not fit the toilet properly. There is no hot water in this hotel and there is so many taps to use and you have no idea which tap is for what. Mosquitos are a real issue here was well as there is an open drain out the front of the hotel. The room rate they are asking to stay here is not worth the money at all. Overall a very bad hotel to stay at.
The only thing that was good was Varani at reception. She was very helpful and polite.

United KingdomThere was major refurbishment going on, the whole of the ground floor was being turned into a restaurant.. We had to walk through a building site every day to get to our room,trying to avoid tripping over electrical cables and avoiding inhaling paint spray. They should not have accepted bookings wile this work was going on. The bathroom was really dirty. The "restaurant" was in fact a bar, full of men drinking, talking loudly and smoking. It was horrible to eat in, so we took one meal in our rooms and ate out the other days.
The room had a fridge and the bed was fine. There was a kind of balcony
