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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

United KingdomNo hot water. Air con not in all bedrooms. Change of towels not offered
My own fault, but I thought the picture showed a pool but it was a blue gate! We had the 2 bedroom apartment and only one room had air conditioning. Cooking facilities were very basic but we didn’t need them ( one very old gas ring ) Electric kettle and large fridge and sink in separate kitchen. Very little place for hanging clothes and only one towel each supplied. Towels were not changed in our 5 days but hosts were very obliging so I am sure they would have given clean towels had we asked. Hot water didn’t seem to work but we didn’t need it. Hosts seemed surprised when we mentioned it on leaving. We arranged to leave our cases for a day before moving in and hosts kindly allowed us to get changed at the property as we were soaked after a very rainy boat trip. Everything was clean. Beds comfortable. Mosquito nets and ceiling fans in place. Different plentiful breakfast each day.

The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was nice. The breakfast was also good with varieties between days. The location is relative near to the beach. Its near to many restaurants and shops. The internet was pretty good comparative with other places i've been in Sri Lanka.

BelgiumWhen we arrived the lady first wanted us to park our rental tuktuk outside, although we specifically asked for private parking. Afterwards she allowed us to park on the property. Another strange thing was that she asked us to pay immediately when we arrived. The WiFi didn't work.
Central location, close to shops, restaurants and the beach. The owner is very friendly and prepared a nice (basic) breakfast for us. The room was basic but comfortable, and it included a mosquito net, which is necessary since there are gaps above the door and window.

TurkeyIt was dirty. Especially the common kitchen was unusable, extremely filthy. It looked like the kitchen sink, counter top, utesils, plates, common outdoor seating area, tables were not cleaned in 50 yrs! Just get a detergent and clean it one day instead of sitting around. It is not difficult and does not require money to be clean!!!! Flush of the toliet did not work. Bathroom window was broken, letting all kind of bugs, ants, mosquitos in. Toilet seat was full of ants.. Poor shower, with little water pressure. A used hand soap (wrapped in toilet paper) in the bathroom! Basic and simple is ok for this price but there is no excuse to be dirty and not do basic maintenance.
Hosts were nice. Locatiom was ok. Big bed.

United StatesCan't say there was anything I didn't like.
The beach towns have guest houses galore to choose from. This one was a real pleasure. Sleep after too much time on airplanes, leaves, the house cats and a lizard the size of the cat strolled by. Local version egg lbreakfast, requested ahead and received a room with no stairs, clothing vendor, seafood burrito at the nearby restaurant, tuktuk to the Matara bus station (bus left 1/2 hour early, at 1:30 istead of 2PM), cheerful, helpful people, safe place, bottled water for sale, soundtrack: two college age guests whistling the theme to an old TV show.

United KingdomI hated everything here! Worst place I’ve ever paid to stay in my life! Nothing was good! My bedding was dirty & smelled of dog wee. There was ants all in the sink in bathroom & on floor & up the walls. I complained but nothing was fixed with it. My door was where everyone’s TukTuk & scooters was parked. So very noisy. Early morning & late night noise was unbearable as I got no decent sleep, I tried to change the 3x nights to just one & they wouldn’t except with good enough cause. Staff unhelpful with changing dates or rooms.
Nothing was nice not even location is over crowded area. My bedding was dirty & smelled of dog wee. Mosquito net loads of holes. The fan was above mosquito net so you don’t feel the fan. It’s a sweat box room. There was ants all in the sink in bathroom. My door was where everyone’s Tuktuk & scooters are parked.
