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 are 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 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.).

United KingdomNothing to not like but as with lots of accommodation in Sri Lanka, no kettle or fridge. That said, we got coffee whenever we asked and offered it when we didn't 👍 We even stored our beers in their family fridge . So what's not to like.
Fantastic hosts - they couldn't have been more accommodating. The whole family are so lovely. Fantastic location . Thankyou for being the perfect hosts

Czech RepublicYou will hear everything during day - road, steps, voices. Fortunately there is silence at night, so it is sleepable. There is a big humidity and you can smell mold in the room.
Whole family was very nice to us. Delicious and big breakfast. A/C on the room and very clean space. Nice placement of the house. It is across the road from the beach. About 1 minute to get there.

It was a total pleasure to stay at Allan Guesthouse. The business is run by a family that is super friendly, caring and attentive at all times. From the moment I arrived until I left they were super nice. They served me the best breakfast I had in Sri Lanka, abundant and delicious. The room on the first floor is very simple and with everything you need. Don't expect luxuries. It overlooks the road and can be a bit noisy. The rooms on the second floor can be quieter. I recommend this place. The family and their charisma made my stay very pleasant. The location is super top. Across the street and you are on the beach, also just a 10 min walk to the coconout Tree Hill.

Czech RepublicWe had a great time in Allan Guest Mirissa. The room and bathroom were clean, we had a nice terrace and it is only 2 minutes walk from the beach and close to the coconut and parrots hill. We got the best breakfast in Sri Lanka and everyone was so nice and kind, we also prolonged our stay :)

MalaysiaWith some improvements to the following I could recommend to stay- Comfort- No hot water which made showering unpleasant. I stayed at cheaper homestays and they all had hot water heaters thus I was surprised when it was not offered here. The mosquito net does not reach the floor and due to the style of the bed frame it was difficult to tuck in- we got bitten at night. A bigger sheet would improve the comfort. Facilities- The rooms on the bottom level do not get much daylight. Someplace to put your things besides the towel rack would be great, simple fix -some place to place your suitcase like a bench for example and a row of hooks on the wall. Advertised on booking.com are in-house yoga classes but there is no yoga place or spa on site. Value for money- After staying at several homestays and hotels in Sri Lanka close to a beach, it is my opinion that in comparison for what is offered the price is too high. Location- Disclaimer- I am a sensitive sleeper and the noise from the main road and neighbour dog barking disturbed my sleep. The path leading up the hill to the house is uneven terrain and you need to walk to the main road to main road to catch a tuktuk or taxi.
We had a fan room at the front downstairs and another fan room at the very back upstairs. Both clean and smelled fine. In comparison the upstairs room better for daylight and airflow. Staff- Family is friendly and helpful to book taxi and tuk tuks (english is limited though) Cleanliness- Rooms and bathrooms are very clean. Location- Great location across the street from the beach. The section of the beach the homestay is closest to is really great for kids to play in the sand and a small pool of sea protected from the waves by the reef. Request the Sri Lankan breakfast which was pretty good, the western breakfast was too basic. I liked the tea was served in nice tea sets.
