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.).

IrelandNothing, they were a lovely family and did everything possible to accommodate us.
The room was spacious and the beds were very comfortable with mosquito nets over both beds. The owners were really hospitable and lovely to deal with, the food was delicious too. There was a hammock and comfy seats outside each room on the terrace. It was only 5 minutes from a beautiful beach and a turtle sanctuary. where we saw a turtle laying eggs which was amazing.

United KingdomNothing!
Amazing value for money. The rooms were huge including the bathroom, and bed was very comfy. We had an outdoor area with a hammock too. Host family were all so friendly and welcoming, and the food was amazing (would highly recommend the rice and curry). The house was a 5min walk from a quiet part of the beach and 5min drive to the busier part (where you can find lots of cafes and bars). Overall would recommend!

AustraliaThe owners are so kind and accomodating. They go above and beyond what is required of them. Their little boy also very kind. Staying here feels like a home away from home. The room and bathroom were enormous for a solo traveller. They provided a mosquito net and a stand fan. It is the basics but also a lovely way to detach and recharge from the hustle and bustle of city life. I would highly recommend to stay here for a homely feel and to be surrounded by nature and your thoughts.

GermanyMy best accomodation in Sri Lanka so far! The family is just amazing, very frriendly and always ready to help you. The house is close to the beach (just 6 min walk) where you find 2 sweet cafés and a nearly empty beach. I really enjoyed this quiet area after my time in Mirissa. Its a bit far from the City so you will need a tuktuk or bike (the bike can be easily rented) but I didn't mind since I knew that before. I took the bike to go to Mulkirigala Rock Tempel (such a beautiful place, can only recommend it) its just 30 min. You can also drive to silent beach (Not far and very nice). The breakfast (fruits and toast with egg) and also the dinner were delicious- make sure you don"t miss it :) They also have a laundry service and I even saw monkeys! All in all I can only recommend this place when visiting Tangalle and looking for some relaxing days.

GermanyWe had an absolutely wonderful time! The hosts were super lovely and gave us lots of valuable tips. Breakfast and dinner we could eat super delicious directly on site. The room was very large, as was the bathroom with separate shower. The balcony was a real dream with seating and a hammock to relax in. Even though there are powercuts during the day, you don't really notice much of it. In the evening, the electricity is back, so you can sleep very well with a fan. Please do not cancel bookings you have already made, you will not regret it! It is absolutely possible to travel to Sri Lanka in a relaxed way.
