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.).

This is amazing place when you want your stay to be within a nature, a bit far from main streets but still with easy and quick transfer to the beach. The owner and all staff working there are fantastic people and you can rely on all services they provide. Try amazing food prepared in the Villa, ask for fish / seafood barbecue and simply enjoy it in the garden with beautiful view. However, you need to be aware that Villa is located on the hill within a big garden / jungle. So you might meet various animals and insects. Place is perfect for nature lovers.

United StatesWe started by booking for two days, and then added two more, and then three more, so we spent a total of a week here at the Hillcrest Villas. Located in the hills above Weligama in a quiet neighborhood where you have to pass through the beautiful rice paddies, the room was extremely comfy, especially since we had a little kitchenette to make breakfast and snacks in, the outdoor bathroom was so beautiful with the plants and views to the monkeys passing by, and the property with the pool and view was a dream. The staff was all wonderful and extremely sweet! Kasun the owner did a wonderful job of not only curating a beautiful space, but also curating a wonderful experience!

South AfricaWe had some piles of rubbish outside which were not great, but we didn’t notice till the second day. It’s also far from town/beach but we had our own transport so it was perfect for us.
An incredibly beautiful spot. The little villa is a dream come true - it really is something special. The pool view is amazing and the kitchen is great for some quick breakfasts!

United StatesThe level of motorcycle driving skills must be confident to get in there or should the rain appear, tuk-tuk is always an option on the other hand. Little issues with one shower, but it had an open bath with another shower so it didn’t bother us too much. Some construction works are going on not far from pool area, didn’t bother me we spent whole day on the pool, but that might be breaker for someone.
The view is spectacular, super nice host, this is a family business for him, so he is trying his best. Nice service, very clean rooms. Taste is an individual thing, but my personal opinion is that the owner is not deprived of it, a very beautiful selection of colors, various small accessories and location relatively to the view. So that’s definitely an insta spot and super nice choice to stay out of crowded areas on heels surrounded by forest. Very tasty fruits and pleasant breakfast over all. Only 2 villas on property, so whenever you the only renter the owner treats you like it’s your private villa which is nice)

RussiaAmazing hill location, quiet place, pool with view on bay behind the jungle. No noisy streets and railroads, 5 mins by bike to Weligama beach. Everything is new, amazing choice of furnishings, dishes, bed linen, very balanced and peacful design. Polite, hospital and friendly host Kasun helps in any case, gives best tips. Very good breakfast choice, perfect coffee. Room cleaning scheduled or requested, self cooking facilities. Houses located the way guests never bother each other. My best sleep experience in Sri Lanka. This is actually a hotel level of service.

SingaporeThis unit got 0 views. Make sure you check before you book this unit. All views are blocked. The entrance is not private at all. Luckily they changed the other unit which got the view but no private garden. The staff knocked after we checked in and tried to rest and ask for the payment, usually it is done on the check out. It's very hard to reach the villa, you need a good tuk tuk, a very small and steep road to the villa.

IsraelWe took a room with a bath. We stay with a baby. I waited to My baby falling sleep and then i wanted to take a bath and relax. The room is part from 4 rooms building . After filling half bath there was no more hot water. If you wait 15-30 min you get hot water for more 7 min. Really frustrating. I didn’t manage to take a bath as i planned. When i complain they wanted to water the room but the baby is sleeping and there is no way to fiz this. If you selling a room with a bath you should maintain a satisfied boiler water. In addition at the morning we ordered 2 avocado toast and espresso and latte. We waited 1 hour and 20 min to get the food !!!! After 30 min i go to ask for the coffee servals times. How much time it takes to prepare avocado toast??? 20 min max?? . They even didn’t say that they are sorry
Amazing place. Staff is great and very nice people.

IndiaThe room interiors are all black without enough light. Room looked very dingy and depressing. At the time of checkin, we were given a form to enter our details along with mode of payment which we chose as card. Next day at the time of checkout we were told they are unregistered and dont accept cards. We didnt have enough cash, the property owner/manager came with us to the ATM and while on the way he was stopped by police because he was using phone while riding scooty. It was extremely hot and we had our flights to catch. It wasted a lot of our time and a lot of exhaustion and hassle. The experience wasnt very good. The food was also not very great.
