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...).

United KingdomThe host/Owner, Chandra, was extremely welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. Located off the main road, quiet location. Very clean and well looked after. It is a simple accommodation, but had everything you need.

United KingdomGlass on the bedroom doors to the main corridors.
Pleasant stay with everything we needed. Close to everything and a short walk to the beach. Good hot shower, comfortable bed although creaky, like most in Sri Lanka! Friendly attentive host. Good that we could use the small communal kitchen and fridge. Safe place to stay with gated entrance.

United KingdomGreat location. Huge room and bathroom - nice A/C. Stored my luggage etc - everything you would hope for in an excellent manner. But best of all is the owner who was amazing and so friendly and welcoming. Would recommend this place to anyone and I would have stayed longer if I didn’t have to leave to my next location. Thank you!

PolandBecause it's next to the railways you can here and feel the trains running, but that didn't bother me at all because it's not too many times a day.
I liked everything here. The room is spacious and super clean, like the bathroom as well. There is also a shared fridge and a kettle to use, all do look very clean and new. The location of the guesthouse is really nice, next to the railways. If you walk the shortcut you are in 1-2 minutes on the main street with all the restaurants and shops. The upper levels of the guesthouse are not finished yet but from there you have an amazing view (there is also the smoking area). The host is such an amazing and communicative person - I wish I could have stayed longer, I loved everything here.

The owner is friendly and looks to make you feel comfortable. I had nice conversations with him. The accommodation itself has a good location and there is everything nearby. The restaurant opposite is very good and also to the beach you have it not far. The rooms themselves are also well equipped and by the fact that there is air conditioning, it makes the stay perfect. I would book this accommodation again, as everything has fit.

United KingdomWe loved being by the train tracks but it can wake you up during the night. The owner insisted on us paying in dollars which I appreciate is a new rule introduced in 2022 however nowhere else required this.. it was inconvenient to have to exchange money.
Great location, just a short walk to a beautiful beach and great shops/restaurants. The owner helped us with arranging laundry and a tuk tuk ride. Comfortable room.

DenmarkThe cleaning a bit disappointing, but not a tragedy.
The lady in charge with the place is very nice and attentive, she tried to accommodate our needs. The room is spacious and nice, the shower is powerful with hot water. The bed is very comfortable and the location is good, in a very nice area of Hikkaduwa, 2 min to the beach and lots of restaurants around the mail street. Most complains about the train, but we loved to see it all the time from our balcony 😊

GermanyWe had to pay in US dollars. And maybe the room near the rails can annoy some people. But even our kids never heard the train for the nights we stayed. Otherwise everything went very well.
Everything was very clean. The staff inside were extremely nice ! Even though they couldn’t speak. lot of English but Google translate is easy and it solves the problem quickly. They are very smiling, friendly and available for us. Lovely. And we had anything to complain about. Wi-Fi works very well. Breakfast with eggs, fruits and toast was perfect for us. We had a lovely stay.

CanadaUnprofessionalism and no response to my calls and messages.
Unprofessional staff and the place was not as it described. Very difficult road access to the place. I was very frustrated about the check in process. When I reached the place, there was no one in the above property to give me the access to the property. I spent about 45 minutes waiting till someone comes. We tried to call them more than 20 times , but no answer. Since there was no one there to give me access, we finally decided to leave the place with frustration. I strongly advised anyone not to choose this place.
