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.).

Lots of construction going on during our stay. Rooms were dated and not very clean.

Verified reviewWow the views from Rawana View are stunning! The rooms are a great size with a lovely balcony that all look out onto that view. The communal area upstairs is extremely well done, and is a real haven. The staff were lovely and attentive, and we found the location to be perfect as it was just far enough out of the epicentre of Ella so not too noisy on a night but close enough to be a two minute tuk tuk ride to get back. Really great place to stay!
Nothing, it was a great place to stay

Verified reviewThe view
Everything! Bedding was a disgusting colour and smelly! The room was warm and basic, and had cockroaches! The shower didn’t work, cold water only. The property was extremely difficult to get to, cars would struggle and the tuk tuk was so scary we thought we were going to fall over the edge

Verified reviewThe view from the room was stunning overlooking Rawana waterfall. Room was large, comfortable beds, good quality mosquito nets, fridge, kettle and good air-conditioning. Loved sitting on our balcony overlooking the stunning scenery. The team were so kind and attentive and helped arrange a tuk tuk tour of Ella and surrounds. Location is fabulous - you feel like you're away from it all but just a 10 minute walk to Ella town centre. Very easy to get tuk tuks if you don't want to walk. Breakfast is very good (choice of Sri Lankan or Western) and massive. Great having breakfast watching monkeys play in the forest.
Everything was great. A safe in the room would have been an added bonus but wasn't an issue.

Verified reviewThe property is located in a breathtaking location with a direct view of the Ravana Falls just minutes from Ella city centre. We got rooms 108 and 109 .. spacious rooms and amazing views. Specially their family rooms were generously big. They have a beautifully done bar upstairs with a decent size pool table again with beautiful views.. They also have a beautiful Labrador whose name is Rowdy :) and She’s definitely a happy pill to your trip …The owner and staff are friendly and very accommodating :) Be rest assured that you will sure come back to this place again.
