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.).

We loved every bit of our stay at Kushanas and his wife’s house. The place is like described a little outside the hectic city but still super close by. An oasis with lots of trees, palms and monkeys. They did everything to make us happy. When we arrived, they organized a last minute appointment for a traditional ayurvedic massage and drove us there. They immediately helped us plan our stay based on our interests. If you’d like, you can have an home made dinner- really recommend it. Also the breakfast was outstanding. The best we had so far in Sri Lanka. we had an awesome time, interesting talks and got lots of great recommendations !!!

SpainKushana and Poornima will make you feel like family right away. Kushana was so kind to pick me up from the train station, and then they made me some lunch. The room was huge, with a private bathroom, and the views from the private terrace are BEAUTIFUL! They gave me the best tips about what to do around Kandy, and the next day Kushana drove me and a couple other guests to a tea plantation, an ayurvedic town and the botanical gardens. On my last day, Kushana gave me a private tour to Sigiriya and Dambulla. It’s quite a long drive, but we had so much fun talking non stop and joking! Breakfast is delicious, and i also had dinner a couple times there, also very good! As a solo female traveler, i highly appreciate how much they cared about me and my safety. Kushana, Poornima, thank you for being a home away from home! I hope to be back soon!

Tuktuk to Kandy is about 300 Rupies. Ask Kushana for Pickme App to call tuktuk avoiding overpriced fares. Would come again..

United KingdomWe loved our time with Kushan and his family! They really welcome you into their home and are amazing hosts. Before our stay at The Comfort, neither my partner of I had done a homestay and were unsure on what to expect, but it was certainly worth it. The food was superb, and although a homestay, the rooms were separate from main building so we still had plenty of our own space! Our room was huge with a beautiful view and it was amazing to wake up to such beautiful birdsong. Kushan was an excellent host, not only before we arrived, but he kept in touch after providing contacts and information to make sure we had the best trip not just in Kandy.Kushan was also willing to drive us wherever we needed to go! Amazing! If you're nervous about a home stay, then don't be! The family were extremely helpful which was hugely appreciated in the bustling city of Kandy. We would stay again in the future ! See ypu next time!!

Sri LankaNothing, we had our own tuk for transport as walking here from town might be a bit of a challenge, but you can arrange collection, Kushan answered our WhatsApp messages very quickly.
Lovely clean, cosy and comfortable rooms, nice hot shower, good AC. Location is outside of the busy main city centre so quiet and a lovely view across the green valley to wake up to. Gated driveway ideal for keeping bikes/tuk tuk overnight. We felt very welcome and would have stayed longer if we had time, the hosts are very friendly, and passionate about sharing the best of their country. The home cooking was amazing, the included breakfast with hoppers, pani pol coconut pancakes and fruit was enough to keep us going all day. We would happily stay again. Kushan will happily take you on tours of local (and further away) sights. The families excellent English made it possible to have some good chats about Sri Lanka, our trip and answer any odd questions we had! A great place to stay in a busy city with lots of guesthouse options, we were so lucky to find this place.
