Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

Thank you very much for accommodating according to my requests.

Czech RepublicSome might be bothered by the noise from the nearby temple or railway tracks. As in many places in the south of Sri Lanka, they don't have hot water here either. Internet doesn't work very well if more users are connected. But anything from it didn't bother us. After all I would stay again.
Accommodation is pleasant. Very nice owner who will help and advise you with anything. There are not many mosquitoes here, so we did not lack a mosquito net. There is also a smaller balcony where you can sit. It is very easy to get to both parts of the city from the accommodation - you can use cheap buses. But if you are thinking of staying for a longer time, I recommend a more comfortable scooter. There are not many buses in the evening hours and the tuktuk drivers are harder to bargain with.

United KingdomEverything was to like......
What isn't there to like about this property, out of the way but close enough to all amenities, bus to Galle is only 40 rupee where you can extend your trip via train for a mere 300/500 rupee to the rest of Sri Lanka. This is your home away from home hands-down, Anusha although we have not met is very easy to deal with & there have been no issues from the start of my trip. I have now been here 3 months & intend on staying, Pradeep is an amazing host & has become a very close friend, always willing to go the extra mile to ensure your stay is made worthwhile, not to mention his amazing cooking which beats a lot of your local restaurants. Anyone looking for a nice, pleasant stay with hosts & prices that beat most, then Anusha's home stay is where you should look to put your feet up if you are visiting Galle.

Sri LankaThe host was very friendly and communicates very well. That helped us to proceed with our plans. The place has a very homely feeling specially cause its in a by road around Magalla, Galle. You don't get the beach or any such scenarios per say but you can definitely have a peaceful good night's sleep since the neighbourhood is very quiet. Value for money. We did not stay there during the day time, and we only got there to sleep. If you are planning to stay longer in Galle, then this would be a good spot as its relatively less expensive but close to the city and with that distance you can easily explore the city. Travelling to this place: If you take a Pickme or an Uber Tuk from Galle Fort that would cost you around Rs.350/- (this was Oct 9th, 2023)

HungaryI was completely satisfied with everything,.
I spent almost a week at ANusha's place and I already miss it. I had a spacious bright apartment and Anusha was very friendly and helpful with everything. She is also an amazing cook I can highly recommend her dinners and breakfasts too. When I return to Galle I'll go back to her place for sure :) She was also very flexible as I had some changes in my plans, and when I had any questions or requests she always did her best to help me. Very nice family home with big garden.

United KingdomYou really can't complain with the rates charged. It's a bit basic and maybe a bit of furniture/lighting in the garden would really take it up a notch.
It's just such magnificent value for a stay in Galle, its well located between the fort and Unawatuna. Anusha is lovely as well.

CroatiaIf you are a light sleeper (like I am unfortunately), I do not recommend this place, at least not the room facing the road. It is just too noisy and the doors are too thin to protect from the noise. Even though this place is not on the main street, I couldn't sleep both nights I was there because of dogs barking all night, tuk-tuks passing, loud prayers from the temple in early morning,, train passing.. For me, it was impossible to sleep. In the early morning it was too bright, since the room doesn't have dark curtains on the door and no curtains at all on the window. And the internet connection in that room upstairs was extremely bad. There was no soap and no toilet paper in the bathroom.
Bed was comfortable, room had the pot to boil water, cup and a plate. Cute little balcony.
