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 StatesI mean the staff could be a little more happier and less rude. I felt as if I was held hostage with the questions she asked and how she presented herself. I do love good amazing customer service, I would love to stay here again but idk about the front desk, I’d rather hear my mom yell at me than check in at a hotel with horrible customer service.
It’s cute and cozy, the beds are amazing. My daughter and sister love it.

United StatesThere was no elevator to carry heavy luggage to the second floor. The breakfast that was offered was expensive and awful.
My room was exceptionally large. While the decor and furnishings are not up-to-date, they are clean and very comfortable.

United StatesPayment through Booking was not ideal. This was a business booking and we had to go through a credit card authorization process to make it so that employees did not have to pay for the room and wait for reimbursement.
The room was very comfortable and quiet. This is the advantage of having separate cottages for each group. We look for opportunities to stay there when we see availability and price dips.

United StatesThe neighborhood nearby looked kind of sketchy, and I was concerned until I pulled into the complex. I realize that you can't do anything about that.
It was very clean and comfortable. I loved the view of the river. As it was a stand-alone unit, it was very quiet. It was unfortunately raining, so sitting outside was not an option.

United StatesA little far from stuff, but not a big deal as they have a shuttle service that will take you where you want to go, and there is a Fred Mayer's (grocery store) slightly less than a mile's walk from the hotel.
Breakfast was offered at a decent price, the room was huge and entire hotel was extremely clean. Staff were very friendly, helpful, and accommodating at all hours of the day/night. Airport shuttle was included, and this place was somehow one of the cheapest places to stay in Fairbanks (late Sept, last minute booking).

United StatesRiver walk wasn't much. Just seemed like a grassy path in front of the cottages.
There was no elevator to transport our luggage to the second floor but the front desk staff graciously helped with our suitcases. Very good green shuttle service to Museum of the North and to the Fairbanks Airport. Chena Restaurant was GREAT. The best meal of our whole trip. Had lavender infused halibut. Wow.

United StatesWhen I asked to extend my stay from 1 night to 2 nights the desk clerk didn't look to see if there was any availability. It was assumed that they were full and I was told as much. I looked online and there were rooms available. I booked it and came right back to make the arrangements to prevent changing bungalows. I just feel like a real attempt at customer service would have involved looking to see if they were actually full for the next night. Instead, I was forced to do their job.
I did like the individual bungalows. That was really nice.

United StatesFound nothing really unlikable about it. Though there are no onsite places for breakfast and lunch, there were places close by to either order from and have delivered or take a shuttle/taxi to if you don't have a car.
Had a cottage with river view. Walking trail just outside the back door. It was a peaceful area for the most part. Some noise from boats and traffic if you were sitting outside. Some wildlife to watch.
