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...).

AustraliaWe weren’t informed in advance that there was an additional air conditioning charge of 500 LKR per night, but we were happy to pay as the accommodation was already so cheap. The bed was a bit hard and the bedding could have been improved by having a duvet. Although, overall it was a great a stay!
We liked being able to use shared facilities such as a kettle and outdoor table. The staff were so kind and helpful! The welcome drink and snack were absolutely delicious. The host allowed us to put some things in their fridge as the communal fridge wasn’t working. He was really informative about the ancient city in Anuradhapura and helped us to avoid paying for the 30USD ticket. Outstanding value for the price!

We had two very nice days at Bas Balcony. Our Host took care about us at any time. With his Tuktuk he brought us to the city, the bus station, to restaurants and did a privat temple Tour for us. He is a very kind and friendly guy and we felt very comfortable.

Czech RepublicOn the Booking.com there is a wrong adress. You need to use the directions from Google Maps.
The hosts are really friendly and nice, the acommodation was very well equipped (it has a hair dryer, fridge, cattle, mosquito net, silent fan, AC...), it's in a quiet locality. The room was very clean and cosy.

Hong KongWe would be happier if they would use some natural incense for the room and bathroom to smell good than chemical ones.
It is located at a quiet neighbourhood, the garden is very nice. Mr Bas and his family are very welcoming. Our room is clean, we especially like the wall lamp which the brightness can be adjusted. We haven’t seen it anywhere in Sri Lanka so far. The was a small problem during our stay, Mr Bas reacted very fast and took care of it quickly. He cares about his guests.

TaiwanAll of the host family are super friendly and went out of their way to make me feel at home. The open terrace has a great view of trees and gardens all round. Price was very reasonable. They did my laundry same day free of charge which seems amazing.

United KingdomWe had an amazing stay at this property for 2 nights. The room was perfect- lovely comfortable bedroom and bathroom which were both very clean. The facilities at the property were also great providing a shared terrace and lots of space! We also arranged a tuktuk tour around the old town with the host which was great would definitely recommend! The hosts were very friendly and generous and went out their way to ensure we had an easy and relaxed stay. Definitely stay here if visiting Anuradhapura!
