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.).

PolandWould be perfect with AC, but considering the price it was very nice!
We stayed for one night on our way from Trincomalee to Colombo. Very friendly owner arranged a jeep safari to see elephants. Place is in a very good location in Habarana.

SingaporeIt is advertised as a treehouse afterall. But my expectation was perhaps a little too high, since I've stayed in treehouses in other SEA countries at about the same price but in better conditions. Door does not close properly. Surfaces are slightly dusty. You'd need patience with the steps to go up.
Very affordable stay with a hospitable host who provided us complimentary breakfast featuring local fares like hoppers, string hoppers with fillings, curry puffs, bananas and tea/ coffee. Walking distance from the bus station. Host arranged for our elephant safari experience at a reasonable price with a guide/ driver who was fun and honest. We parked our scooter underneath the house. There's an insect net over the bed. Nights can get chilly since the place is forested. Host also dropped us at the bus station at the end of our stay. Overall a pleasant stay for the price paid.

GermanyWhat a great place to stay!!! It is pretty cool to sleep in a tree house with all these nature sounds. Especially as you can stay there after an excellent elephant safari nearby. It feels like a real adventure all together! I was worried about the Moskitos but the moskito net worked pretty well, so I got no bites at all during the night.

PolandIf you are thinking of trying a stay in the tree house, this is definitely a good place to start with. Really nice breakfast, location is also very convenient as it is very close to the center but hidden among trees and farms. Also owner is very helpful and friendly. Great stay!

United KingdomThe treehouse was a little more exposed than we expected, this meant more animals like frogs and insects could come into the room than expected. There sinks in the venue could do with a little scrub to remove residue.
Srimal and his family were the kindest hosts, they were super helpful. Srimal took us on many trips in his tuktuk, waited for us and showed us extra places on the way back. We ate a great breakfast and thoroughly enjoyed staying on the edges of the jungle!!

CanadaMosquitoes but not much they can do about that. A mosquito net is provided in the treehouse as it is not fully enclosed to prevent them from coming in.
I didn’t stay in the treehouse, I stayed in one of the rooms attached to the house. It was very comfortable and clean. The family was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was substantial and tasty.

The host very kindly arranged for us to go on a safari to Kaudulla National park, where we saw loads of elephants. He also took us to Sigirya for a great price. Thank you!

PolandOn occasion it may get loud ; there are a lot of dogs in the village so it’s not only jungle-loud sort of things. You can reconsider if you are a light sleeper. In that case, there are some homestay rooms on the property as well.
Awesome place; Sounds of a jungle all around ; Plenty of birds, snakes but not mosquitoes, surprisingly! ( the property provides mosquito nest anyhow); Delicious home-made breakfast; The disclosure: no WiFi and hot water are not a problem if you’re prepared for it! And host was honest; Additionally, the host is extremely nice and he accommodated all my needs. Even further, he voluntarily picked me from the train station which saved me confusion with tuk tuk drivers. Highly recommended!
