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 reviewFirst the place is hard to find, their phone is not correct so when we call no one answered. Once we got the number it's better. We arrived two hours earlier and waited in another hôtel. We paid extra for taxi, for the the hôtel who accept us to wait. We had to pay extra charge also because we wanted to use the room from the morning. Nothing looks liké the photos. Everything is old or broken. There were many big bugs. Beds are not very clean, the covers is not fixed. The room has AC so it s really good, the swimming pool was blue but not very clean and we didn't know if it s good. No one is in the house to care of the guest. I wanted to make a tea, the boiler was broken and the glass so dirty. When we open the window in the toilet there was dust and bugs. It seems not used for many months. And no one clean it. We were near beach and restaurant. The pipe in the bathroom is not working well. In the drawer we found pièces of bugs. My children were scared. 10 000 for one day , we except a little more. The Lady who opened the door was nice and helps us to quit quickly the house.

Verified reviewIt was a lovely property when built.
We never had hot water, no water came out of the bathroom tap and had to use the bidet for water. The bed sheets and towels were worn out and needed replacing. On the first night we had the biggest cockroach I had ever seen in the bathroom.

Verified reviewNothing 😟
Everything 😐 We paid for the lady Host 9580LKR for an AC room + 1000 LKR for pool, but the pool we didn't use it's dirty , but she gave us a non AC room. When we Informed her, she said she will come back in an hour to do a room change, We checked in 4pm we waited until night 8pm, then when we called her she said she will return other 3000 balance just take the Non AC room, we were very disappointed. Then we decided to stay as it's dark. The next day we called her 5 times telling that we needed to check out. Then she came after one hour, we handed over the room to her and requested our room balance 3000 + 1000 pool money because we didn't use the pool it's very dirty. She yelled at us telling us that she could give only 500LKR, we couldn't believe what happened, she threatened us that she can't pay the money and she said her brother is the biggest thug here she can do anything. Then we silently left that place, coz Srilanka is a beautiful country, one person can't make it worse. This hotel is the nightmare

Verified reviewThe room was simple but had everything you needed; air conditioning, a bathroom, a bed. The pool was small but it was nice there was one. The hotel was quiet and peaceful.
The air conditioning didn't get colder than 28 degrees fine once asleep but it was hard to fall asleep in the heat. the wifi did not work at all. When I arrived, I had to wait 30 minutes for the owner to arrive to let me in even though I had notified of my arrival time.
