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.).

New ZealandNot really a negative, but It was a little off the beaten track so bring food and anything else you need, or have your own transport to go out. +++That being said, the owner kindly shared us macaroni cheese without us asking (very kind… and delicious)
The owner was very kind and made our stay very comfortable. The facilities are modest, reasonable, clean and relaxing

The room is part of a really beautiful area/home of the host. The room is like a Tiny house is het garden. The host is a super friendly woman who also makes breakfast if you ask.

IcelandBathroom had a little strong smell of sewage. Location is a little out of town, but easy with a tuktuk or scooter. The bed has a dent in it, so you do roll towards the middle.
Nice room with a tiny kitchen. The host was very kind and prepared breakfast for us. There where blankets in the bed, as it does get chilly in the evening.

FranceThe bed wasn't the comfiest – might be worth considering a new mattress for future guests.
Had a great time at Moon Plain Inn. The owner was super friendly and really helpful. Loved the tasty and affordable breakfasts and dinners she prepared. The one-bedroom house was basic but totally functional. Plus, the hot water and Wi-Fi worked like a charm, which was awesome.

United KingdomInterior walls slightly grubby, ok -as everything else was spotless.
A heartwarming family run little place. Very friendly, helpful and accommodating to your queries or concerns. Room had fresh white sheets and bathroom ceramics were spotless. You can see the owner runs the place with care and pride. Fresh water tank for you to refill your water bottle. It was very calm and quiet place to rest well, with surrounding garden outside with many plants and a little running river alongside property. 25min walk to Moon Plains or take a nice stroll through tea plantations. A further 15min walk to peaceful Gregory Park

Sri LankaEverything was super cool. the host was very friendly and kind. and she served a breakfast for just 500LKR for both of us. And that meal was really good. And that portion is enough for both of us. and i should talk about the location. It is 2km away from the city center but that place is a calm place and full of natural views. Also the room was beyond my exceptional. I can give a 10/10 rating for that room. The bed is very comfortable and warm. At last if you are a couple and looking for a good clean calm place this is the place you should stay.

South AfricaThe only drawback of this place was the location being a bit far from any food places, and it wasn't really easy for us to cook at the accommodation (although we did make a soup one night in the family's kitchen). If you have a scooter it would be more convenient, but there is also a local bus that passes every hour or so making it possible to get to the town or Gregory Lake area cheaply.
Moon Plain Inn was a lovely place to stay with tranquil surroundings and beautiful flowers all around the property. The cottage is quaint with a huge bed and private bathroom, as well as basic kitchenette (only sink and kettle - no fridge or stove for cooking). Nice and private, great wifi, water dispenser and walking distance from a calm lake with local fisherman. The sound of the stream outside is really calming - a cosy retreat that is enjoyable even in colder weather. Responsive hosts that give you your space and privacy.

Great place to stay in Nuwara Eliya. Not too far from the town. Takes only few minutes to get to moon plains and Gregory Park. Room was nice and clean and we had given enough blankets so that we didn't suffer from cold at night. Had tea/coffee making facilities with a mini kitchen area inside. Also Good Wi-Fi Connection within the facility. Owner was very kind and hospitable. Recommend for anyone.

United KingdomIt does get very cold at night so make sure you have lots of layers, jumpers and fluffy socks but there are plenty of warm blankets to keep you cosy at night. The cherry on the cake for the property would be a wood burning stove, it would give it the ultimate cosy feel! Also make sure you are stocked up on water and food before you arrive as it is a long walk to any nearby shops.
Cosy, welcoming, homely, peaceful and the hosts are wonderful and kind. They welcomed us with some of the best hospitality we have experienced in Sri Lanka and we were taken care of every step of the way! The sound of the stream throughout the day and night makes Moonplain the ultimate retreat and perfect for practicing some of your Yoga and Meditation on the decking at the front of the property in Mooplains Forest Log. Not a bad word to say about it.

Great experience! Very loving family. The plave was very clean. The host made us feel instantly welcome and she even dried our clothes after they were soaked from a rainy hike! Her son showed us a local tea factory, lover's leap and a great restaurant that serves Tamil food. It is called Ambaal's. Overall superb stay, we were sad we couldn't stay longer!

United Arab EmiratesStay away from this place if you don't want to waste your time and nerve cells! When I traveled all the way to the place, it was really hard to find it in the darkness as there were no signs, no lights, nothing! Once I finally found the place, they informed me that no room available , even though I booked it via booking.com and it WAS available!
