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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

United KingdomLiked it all, please never change
The standard are so very high in this wonderful guest house with a brilliant kitchen and dining area over looking the ocean, the kitchens were very well equipped with everything you need to cook food which you can get from keels supermarket which is only two minutes walk, the furnishings was of high quality and the place is super clean with lovely bedroom. The highlight of our stay was the owners who are a beautiful sincere couple who see nothing as a problem and help you with any requests you may have. Was sad to leave and will return again for sure

United KingdomThe only thing I would change is the sheets which I found a little rough as I have very sensitive skin.
The owners of the hotel were lovely - helping us with all sorts of things! For example, they arranged a very good boat trip for us on the Madhu river. The rooms are comfortable, the whole place is clean and the roof terrace and kitchen are really very pleasant and well-appointed! The location is great, so close to the beach; also close to the market and shops so everything is on hand.

Sri LankaI wish there are soaps and shampoo in the bathroom. Wastepaper bin and tissues were also missing inside the room.
Beautiful sea view from the rooftop. It has a common kitchenette with all necessary items and refrigerator. Large dining area on the roof top with a beautiful view. Rooms are spacious and clean. Bathroom is super clean with cold and hot water. There is a Keells super within the walking distance for groceries. Ambalangoda town is also within 5 minutes drive. Owner and his family is friendly and helpful.

GermanyAfter six years I finally managed to visit Sri Lanka again, this time with a friend. Had the most wonderful time there and wanted to visit Ambalangoda again. It was fascinating how much Sonali and Brasenna had done in the meantime. Rooms were clean and comfortable as always but now there are even more rooms and a rooftop with hammocks and tables to relax and to enjoy the view on the beach, just a walking distance away. Beach is still clean and not too crowded which offers the perfectly relaxing time. And Sonali is still a brilliant cook and spoiled us a lot. Thank you so much, will come again and stay longer....

ItalyThis place is amazing! The beach is right in front of the house, and there is a restaurant right around the corner. The best thing was the roof terrace, from where you have an amazing view to the ocean. The owner is super nice and helps you with everything you need. There is a kitchen and a fridge what you can use. The rooms are very big, bright and cleen! I loved my stay there and hope to come back one day!

GermanyAsking for a good Review is unneccessary in my opinion, besides you will get a good one anyway when ur keeping your places like this ;)
Very nice homestay and the family is very very friendly. For ac in your rolm you have to pay 2$ extra, but thats ok I think. To the beach you walk 1 Minute, is ok for a Quick swim, but dont expect a tropical paradise. For food you find some places nearby, just ask

UkraineI like the family home ambiance and a mix of living in a non-touristy neighborhood with closeness to the beach. Nice welcoming and helpful hosts did everything to make my stay exceptionally pleasant. As a returning customer, I was pleased to see all the new developments in the home. Thank you, Prasana and Sonali for making me feel at home!
