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...).

United StatesThere were no cups in the room. Shower was difficult to navigate. Also, we stayed hoping to enjoy the martini bar only to find out it was permanently closed. Not one webpage mentioned that the bar was closed. That needs to be updated.
Beautiful historic building. Room was clean and nice.

United StatesThe first room we got wasn’t very clean. It’s kind of dusty and the room didn’t smell good.
I like the reception deal with complaints really fast. Our first room was somewhat smoky and the smoking detector was beeping constantly. We let the hotel know and we smoothly changed to another room. Our second room was good. AC was great, nothing to complain about.

United StatesThe couches and carpet in the hotel rooms could use an update. When checking out we had to wait for 7 elevator rides since they have small elevators and they aren’t very fast. Not a big deal though. The shower was great with a waterfall and handle feature but was poorly built. The towel we laid out to step on was soaked and the whole bathroom got wet and slippery easily. No parking was a bummer. I will say having a partnership with Hancock building offering $35 parking with and in and out privileges made up for it glad i bought it ahead of time online. Wish there could be a valet though.
The hotel was built in 1927, but the rooms weren’t older like some other hotels. The hotel is pet friendly and has a beautiful ballroom. There was a NYE wedding and it was beautifully decorated. Very convenient location around the corner of the water tower and many stores and restaurants. Highly recommend the Rosebud steakhouse just a few steps across the street. The rooms also conveniently had central air so we were able to adjust to our liking. Lots of lamps though. Not actually bright. Very dim room. Had a vanity but with minimal light. Would have been great to have a stool at the vanity.

United StatesThere were stains on the carpet and the bed skirt, but I always wear house shoes in a hotel anyway. I wish it had a microwave. The coffee pot was really old (pre-keurig version).
The staff was outstanding. it’s right off the 146 bus route, super convenient. Close to the lake shore. I love the old hotel feel, but with modern updates like the bathroom. Very comfortable.
