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...).

GreeceEverything was simply perfect....
In my 10 weeks in Sri Lanka, This was the only hotel that resembled the comfort hotels provide in the west. There was hot water in the tap not only in the shower as is usual in the country. The owner, Sooraj, is AMAZING and all staff are very friendly and hospitable. The place is super clean and the bed very very comfortable. There was even a plug in device for mosquitos in the room, as opposed to mosquito nets, and a lampshade activated by touch. Working internet. Great food. Great location. Electricity plugs next to the bed on both sides, working kettle and tea bags, complimentary GLASS bottle of water, keys activate/deactivate electricity in the room. This was the most environmentally friendly place I stayed in the whole country. Great value for money. And the newly created garden restaurant is a must visit!

United KingdomI am a returning guest, and once again I really enjoyed my stay. The place is wonderful, very close to the beach, all the local restaurants, shops and bars, and only a short drive to the airport. There is a a private entrance and drive through the garden, which means you will not hear any noise from the adjacent street. The host is friendly, smiling and helpful and If you need something he will be pleased to assist you. The room is perfectly clean and comfortable. The breakfast was always nice. As a frequent traveller I highly recommend your stay.

United KingdomI had the pleasure to stay at this very nice accomodation. The host was kind and supportive from the moment I arrived until the most mute I left. The room was very clean, nicely decorated, and very quiet. The location is ideal, close to the beach and all the best restaurants are withing 3 minutes walk. This is the ideal place to stay after a long haul flight, and I can genuinely, highly recommend your stay.

NetherlandsWe loved our stay here. The owner and his wife are superkind and we were welcomed with a delicious lime and soda juice. They have a backup generator which came in very handy and the bed and silkysmooth sheets were better than at home. I got sick the first day as I always do and they were superkind and when I needed to go to the store, the manager even walked with me. He is also someone I will remember for his kindness. The location was perfect. Super close to the restaurants and bars and close to the beach. All in all: we recommend everyone a stay here wholeheartedly!
