Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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...).

HungaryOnly cash payment is accepted. The garden is a little run down, but they seem to be working on it. There are no shops nearby.
Clean, spacious room. It is a great location right at the remote end of Kirinda Beach. The room had comfortable beds and a fridge and good AC. The staff was friendly and helpful. They arranged a safari jeep for us to Yala.

SpainHowever, as nice as the people are, its simply impossible to recommend this acomodation. The place urgently needs some work (not only on a cosmetic level), the beds are really uncomfortable, towels and sheets have seen better days and half of the time the electricity was not working. (i cant tell about wifi as we had local sim cards) The airconditioning was way over dimensioned for the wiring in the buiding and went out in a massive shortcut in the middle of the night, shooting sparks out of the wall...at that point it was almost comical. They were nice enough to offer us another room but we already checked out that day. Its a pity because the area and the place itself has so much potential.
The place is located just beside the beatuful kirinda beach, there are almost no tourists around, we really enjoyed the surroundings, the friendly staff and the company of all the animals around. Sheehan was really nice and helped us to arrange transports from ella to kirinda and from there to arugam bay at a fair price with a really nice driver They also helped us to arrange a private safari with a really good guide (saman) for a very competitive price including lunch and breakfast.

United KingdomDid not end up staying even one night. We arrived in the evening, all hotel staff had gone home, except for one security guard (that was also the cook), we weren't even taken to the reception to check in, only told to go to the room (which had faulty lights, broken rails in the bathroom, and smelt as if the room hadn't been aired for a while). The owner was unfortunately ill but friendly, he was available on phone, but there wasn't much he could offer to help at that time. We ended up finding a place nearby that had rooms available, and switched to it immediately. We cancelled this booking without staying at all.
