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.).

GermanySimple room with a good bed and cooling ventilator. It stays relativly long dark in the morning, so it's possible to sleep a little longer. It's clean and the location is great situated between fishmarket, city center and the major beach of Tangalle. There is basic community kitchen which could be used, and the veranda next to the canal is super chill (no moskitos/dry season). Nihal was a great host, and I would definetly come back the next stay in Tangalle.

ItalyUnfortunately the bathroom was dirty while I was there. It might have been because of the low season and the less affluence of travelers. Not an issue for a couple of nights for me.
Very centrally located and at the same time close to the main beach. The room is nice and there’s a very cute terrace overlooking the river. The host family is super welcoming, accommodating and helpful!

Germanyit is a nice place, hosted by a friendly family. you could asked them any times. the sleeping place is directly in the backyard, with nature animals around you, even a peacock was there! so, if you are searching a cheap place with nice people, where you can listen to the ocean while you are falling asleep, you are quite right here! it isn’t far from the ocean ore the bus stop!

United KingdomThe room wasn’t very clean and covered in cobwebs all around the room and bathroom, the bathroom felt very dirty. The staff were reluctant to clean the room when asked as the floor got very dirty. Secondly I was made to feel very uncomfortable about my appearance / weight from the male staff, he made a joke about the size of my clothes compared to my partners whilst doing our laundry, upon checkout he was asking how much I weighed which was unnecessary and was laughing to his daughter making jokes! It was unexpected and didn’t need to be asked! It made me feel very unsettled and uncomfortable I wouldn’t recommend to stay here as a female!
The location was good it was only a few minute walk from the beach and the local restaurants

BelgiumUnfortunately the rooms are not maintained properly. Plaster is coming off of the walls every time we move the curtains, the room is literally filled with spiderwebs and dust (although it should be easy to remove ??), the bathroom is the worst. Nothing was cleaned, spiderwebs and bugs (dead and alive) everywhere, ... We barely slept at night as we were constantly bitten by ants/spiders in the bed(frame)... (Mosquito nets obviously aren't effective against an ants colony living in/around the mattress and bedframe) Of course nature has its own ways and we can't blame the presence of some mosquitoes/ants/spiders in the (bath)room, but we're sorry to say that this goes way further and is just plain laziness... Such a shame. Also rooms are extremely hot and hard to air, we had to sleep with open door all night (!).
Place with a lot of potential, good location regarding closeness to the beach and bus stop/main road. Owners are kind and welcoming.
