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.).

GermanyI was traveling alone and stayed there one night before my flight in the morning. The owner was super helpful. He organized a cheap transport to the airport for me, gave me tips where to walk around and what to do, cooked some sri lankan food for my last rupees and woke up in the morning to make sure I get safe to the airport. In general I felt really safe. He spoke good english and was really supportive. I could pay with card, the wifi was working good in and outside the room and the room was clean with fresh towels.

FranceI arrived at the hotel around 1 am due to a delayed flight. Despite the late hour, the host was there to greet me warmly. Although my stay was brief, lasting only 7 hours, I enjoyed a restful night's sleep. The hotel is conveniently situated near a rental shop that promptly provided me with a ready-to-go motorcycle. I would definitely choose to stay here again.

EgyptThey didn't accept credit cards so I had to withdraw cash which wasn't a good option for me. I was told the check-out was around 10:30 am so I had to pack my luggage quite earlier than planned and spend some time sitting in the hall area.
The room was spacious. Towels, soap and a fan were provided. The staff were friendly and helpful. The location had pros and cons. It was close to the bus road, the tourist stores and the beach. However, being on the road meant that you could hear traffic and beeps all the time. The breakfast was good but for me, it was quite oily to start the day with. (It's Sri Lanka so serving tropical fruit like pineapples, papayas and coconut would be perfect for the guests)

PolandCheck carefully if your room has AC. Some have, some don't. If you need air-conditioning make sure to book a room with AC.
A decent hotel and a good choice for its price. Great location just few minutes from the beach. Very simple accomodation, but all what was needed was there (and one should not expect more for the price) Most importantly, the personnel was very helpful. The hotel runs a decent local restaurant at the ground floor ( not at all disturbing the rooms upstairs and with separate entrance).

Sri LankaYou just need to set your expectations according to the rate. The hosts and food at the restaurant will amaze you.
In the low budget hotel category this is a true gem. The people that host you embody Sri Lanka, they're friendly and helpful beyond compare. The room we stayed in was basic. The WiFi is reliable and decent for local standards, the bed a bit firm and the shower could be more comfortable. We had a room with a fan, which may be sufficient. The rate is amazing and included a standard breakfast. The rooms are above an amazing restaurant with delicious fresh food at affordable prices. The location is on the main road, with other bars and restaurants and the beach within walking distance. Easy to flag down a taxi for longer trips. Staff speaks English and will help you with whatever you need. If you travel on a budget, this is good value for money!

GermanyExcellent place specially if you want to do a stopover close to the airport (30 minutes by tuk tuk).Sri, the owner is very nice and he even let me leave some luggage with clothes while I am away traveling. There are a lot of nice restaurants around the hotel with a good variety of food and the beach is like a 3-5 minute walk. Will stay here again definitely. :)

We had an incredible stay at Royal Family Hub! The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. We really appreciated the extra effort they put in to accommodate our 1 year old son. The food at the rooftop restaurant and breakfast were both magnificent! The room was spacious, clean, and the bed was so comfortable- we miss it already. Lastly, the location was superb- close to the nearest shopping centers, beach, and many tasty restaurants. Truly a wonderful experience overall and would be thrilled to stay there again!
