Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Mosquitos were a bit of an irritation for a couple of hours early evening, but that isn't the hotels fault. It is a little way out of the main town, but the advantage is that is was peaceful.
The staff and manager were friendly and very helpful. The room was a good size, clean and fresh. We ate at the hotel. The food was good quality and freshly cooked.

Clean spacious room, great value for the cost. Warm welcome by Sudath who provided excellent customer service making us feel right at home. We appreciated the mosquito netting, comfortable bed and mini fridge. Excellent breakfast was cooked freshly on site and Sudath brought us coffee to the room first thing in the morning.

The room was ok, but a couple lamps didn’t work. Seems like they should either replace the lamps or just remove the broken ones.

Room was tiny and 'out the back'- not part of the main hotel. Air con did not work properly -always very cold so had to turn it off. No Wi-Fi in room or upstairs area, Had to go to main lobby. No facility for boiling water. Charged extra for pots of tea 600 rupees per pot. Overall the hotel did not meet our expectations .
Close to main street with local food choices. Outside areas for sitting. Fridge in room for keeping the beer cold. . Semi at reception was very helpful and organised for pots of real leaf tea,

Nothing I really enjoyed my stay.
Room was a nice size with a sofa in to relax. Shower was powerful and clean. Aircon was great. The best thing about the place however is the hotel manager who goes above and beyond to make your stay a great one. He helped me find the location of my private bus to Colombo and made sure it was running before my setting off on my journey. The hotel has specific tuk tuk drivers they use to keep with there excellent standards. Food portions were large and food tasty. Wi-Fi worked in room.

My room was next to the kitchen and an ill-defined machine that (re-)started every 15 minutes (luckily I had ear plugs). Opening the curtains would expose me to the garbage of the kitchen. I had ordered a chicken sandwich but it contained hard parts (crushed bones??).
The staff was very friendly! Also with the help of the staff it was very easy to rent a bicycle.
