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.).

AustraliaNot all rooms have mosquito nets. Mine didn't and there were mosquitos. I took heaps of Vitamin C (12 grams) per day and this prevented the bites from turning into itchy lumps. Some items are in need of repair or replacement. Like the power board and chopping board. The TV remote didn't work even with fresh batteries. The WiFi is 2.4 GHz instead of 5 GHz. I was still able to use it and even stream YouTube but the signal would be better if a 5 GHz modem were used. Make sure you bring UK and Indian travel adaptors because like many places in Sri Lanka this place has inconsistent power points.
Shehan (the owner) was incredibly helpful. His Son picked me up from the airport (for $12 USD). He also took me on a paid tour around Negombo. The apartments have a backup generator air conditioning and fast internet. When the power went out I was still able to use the internet and AC. Shehan was happy to accept credit card for a 3% fee which was great as the ATMs charge 800 LKR per withdrawal. Even with the surcharge it was cheaper to pay card. Breakfast was good. Some days breakfast was better than others. The pool area was really nice too. Unless you want to stay in and pay exorbitant prices for a 5 star hotel, this probably one of the best value for money stays in Negombo. A lot of effort has gone into ensuring guests have everything they need. The apartments are larger than most with lovely marble floors and benches. There's a bathroom and kitchen. There is also a desk, which is great for remote workers especially with the backup generator fast WiFi and AC.

Clean, good breakfast a lot of options, good facilities! The host Shehan was very very helpful he waited at the airport for us once we arrived and as we had some trouble with my baggage he was very patient, kind and even helped me get in touch with the airport to sort my baggage out. Would recommend for any one and any age:)

United KingdomOwner was a bit forgetful when asked questions, we requested a taxi to train station on last day we were quoted what we thought was a very high price for a 1 hour journey compared to other journeys we have had. We didn't realise that we were getting the hotel car I'm sure a pickup would have been cheaper. Not a good feeling after a nice stay.
Location, apartment, staff, value we originally booked two days but eventually after a tour we stay actually stayed 10 days.

PortugalAll as expected!
Park Lane Apartments is a true gem in Sri Lanka. The beautiful, clean, and homely atmosphere, coupled with its convenient location just steps away from the beach, supermarkets, and restaurants, made my stay unforgettable. Mr. Shehan and his attentive staff made me feel like both a cherished guest and an owner, striking the perfect balance. The breakfast was delightful, and the reliable Wi-Fi added to the practicality of the well-designed and comfortable apartment. This spot is ideal for short or long stays, offering privacy and a peaceful environment. Park Lane Apartments exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend it for a wonderful stay in Sri Lanka.

He and his staff make you feel like a dear guest and owner at the same time. Words cannot justify this place. I wish we could have stayed there for more days but our time in Sri Lanka has ended.

The staff and the owner with his family were very polite and accommodating. The place is located not far from the beach. I stayed there for two months and enjoyed it. When I had any issue with the kitchen or a bathroom, there are all being fixed immediately
