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.).

CanadaIn the bathroom was load of bugs, but that's because of the open window. Quite hot during a day, and only one fan. But probably you are out during a day so should be fine.

We asked breakfast at 07.00h. They took no time to do it properly, for getting up late themselves. The bathroom was too dirty, so I asked for a brush, cloth, and soap. There reaction was "But we cleaned just now". It took me 20 minutes to make is usable.

ItalyAs soon as I arrived I had to wait 15 minutes as was no one there, then the guy arrived and with the worst attitude, without even to say any sorry, he told me that booking portal was not connected and he gave the room away (I booked 3 days before) Then he told me that I should cancel the booking to avoid paying, almost took my phone to do it himself. The worst experience so far in the whole asia. I could understand an overbooking, that can happen, but the misbehavior from that guy is speechless, the arrogance and unforgivable "non caring at all" expression make this place really avoidable. DON'T GO THERE

IndiaThe room washbasin tap was broken when I arrived, I shared the photo of the same with the owner and complained about the power socket and lighting, but this guy did not have a decency to even talk to me, most of the time he was not in the property but was busy with his resturant which is 3 km away from the property. I didn't have a choice due to bad weather and a very tight time line, I had to spend two days there. But at the end I think they somehow cheated with me by asking extra 20% money to what my room was booked from booking.com, by saying that is tax, while just after two days my hotel at Kandy did not ask for any tax and they charged me the same amount as I booked from booking.com. All in all a big no to the property
I didn't like anything.

Sri LankaVery poor customer service. The care taker wasn’t aware of our booking till we went to the property even after we called the owner and asked him about the confirmation also the care taker wasn’t willing to provide the booked rooms instead complained it was our fault and that we have booked wrong number of rooms . Upon our arrival one room was not even ready and even though it’s advertised to have a triple room they provided us with a double room , when we contacted the owner of the place he told to arrange a bed to the care taker but instead of a bed he just laid a mattress on the floor . And he kept saying us to cancel the booking through the application so he would provide us to a cheaper price.
