Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

PhilippinesProbably the stairs as the room that i got was in second floor. I noticed that there are few mosquitoes inside the room, though they provided the bed with a mosquito net. (I just didn’t bother to use it)
The property is clean and huge the room that i booked has 2 beds. And the location is just few mins walk to Mirissa beach..

AustraliaI put my laundry in and all my BRAND NEW white clothes are now a pale lilac. I’d given instructions for cold, gentle wash (translated) and saw the lady put my washing in - don’t know what happened there but all the other clothes had been washed multiple times before. The accomodation does not provide meals like the ones in the pictures. To my knowledge the don’t provide lunches or dinners at all. Aside from the breakfast being good overall my toast was always cold and either stale and very chewy or was so hard it crumbled when you cut or bit it. I was given cold stale waffles one day which had syrup not enough for half of one. They were also tough - couldn’t eat them. There is no card access as stated - just a room key. At midnight, EVERY NIGHT, the gate to the driveway would open, scraping loudly over the concrete and gravel. Four motorbikes and a car would Cole through onto the property and the drivers would be speaking (at that hour of night seemed more like shouting) to each other. It was extremely difficult to get to sleep again after that. It would be good for the facilities listed were accurate. I saw nothing of them when I was there other than the laundry. THE BIG DOG!! Alright to properly wash in a convenient location it had no street lighting so could be dangerous walking in the dark
I thought the breakfast overall was great - I was given a fried egg, two pieces of toast with butter and jam, fruit (awesome) one day I got three (cold, tough) waffles One day I was given egg hoppers. That was delicious! Lady who runs the place was lovely and so were the staff The lady (?manager/owner) made sure I had a ground floor unit (as the accommodation is not suitable for wheelchair access) or for me in this instance where I’d sustained a foot injury The accommodation was in a good area about a 15 -20 minute walk to town.

United KingdomThe toilet was very dark and difficult to shave in, but it was still not an issue for the price
The location was great, just a little walk to the main street of restaurants and very close to the beach The room was a good size, clean and comfy. The mosquito net was the best we have had so far and you didn't wake up with it stuck to your face The owner was friendly and helpful, with a very happy and friendly dog

BelgiumWe had a room at the ground floor and it was not very calm at night (engine motors, people talking). The bed linen was worn and there were holes at some places, maybe needs a refreshment.
Very friendly host. Nice location near the center. Clean room, spacious. Good pressure and hot shower.

United KingdomWe did think the breakfast wasn’t as good as we were expecting from the reviews, eggs were either over or undercooked (runny whites) and while there was mountains of food for two people (huge fruit plate, toast & jam and an egg wash as standard) we did think it was all a bit dry - like serving a plate of about 8 coconut rotti with no dal and or 6 hoppers for 2 people with nothing to eat them with. It felt very much like quantity not quality so it doesn’t depend on what you’re looking for!
Clean & well presented room, comfy bed, friendly owner & staff, very good aircon, hot water & good water pressure. Nice seating area outside of room. Nice quiet area but only 10 mins walk from the beach.

There is also a net around bed so you don’t need to worry about insects. Owner is such a kind a cute person, she made us feel like home. Thank you so much for your kindness and we wish you all the best!
