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...).

CanadaIt's a cute little place, close to the casino, and a water view. I was a little uneasy as there was two other bedrooms up stairs, so you have no idea who is sharing the upstairs with, but my stay was nice, and the owner was pleasant and also lives in the downstairs. He has a little problem with English, hard to understand, but very nice and we just texted over the phone which it made it easier to communicate with him. I would stay there again. I got the room with the balcony and a bathroom, the other two rooms share a bathroom, but it was huge with a walk in shower. I don't justify spending $300.00 a night, just to sleep in a bed and have a shower. I stayed there for $200.00 for 2 nights

CanadaOnce I booked there were a lot of messages that went through my email. So many that I missed the owner asking me if I needed a parking spot. Once you open the emails you see several boxed sections of text, it's confusing to see the owner's current message and easy to miss correspondence. Once I asked about where to park the owner screenshot the question I missed and kept showing me that I missed his question about parking several times. I'm not sure what that was about, I just wanted the instruction for where to park. He eventually sent me a text with the instructions. There's a dog on the property that barked at me when I came in, and in the morning when I was leaving. This would have possibly woken other guests up. The kitchen is dirty and cluttered. There was a full sink of dirty dishes to wash. Cleanliness wasn't the greatest. My room had been sprayed with an air freshener. I had to open the window to air it out before going to sleep.
The location is good, it's close to the border. The free parking was appreciated and I could check in late. This is basically like a hostel with a private room. Shared common areas and bathroom. I liked the extra blanket in the closet since the covers were thin.

LebanonThe old guy who own this property is rude and racist. He kept nagging to move my car parking eventhough I parked it per instructions and wasn't causing any blockage. He came knocking at my door in the night while I was sleeping asking me to move it for no real reason. I refused since it didn't make sense and I was sleeping and it was cold outside, also he doesn't speak English well and I couldn't understand what he is saying. He only left the room once I told him am going to leave tomorrow early morning. In the next day he woke me up very early to leave or move the car. My experience staying here was horrible. It looks like he wasn't happy that I stayed in his place and didn't want me from the beginning although I haven't done anything wrong.

CanadaNo complaints. Everything was perfect.
What an absolute treat to stay in this lovely, clean, warm and loving home. I can't say enough about how cozy, comfortable and safe I felt there. Alan is an absolute gem of a man who clearly loves making guests feel welcome. Every detail was so lovingly thought out. It is really hard to describe the experience of staying here, but within minutes of arriving I felt as if all of my stresses had dissolved completely. I loved the little basket of treats in my room, and how Alan had the bedside lamp switched on and a video of a crackling fireplace playing on the t.v. screen. The amenities just outside of the rooms included a fridge, microwave, coffee and tea supplies. And the big beautiful common area and kitchen downstairs were amazing.

CanadaAs stated in the property description, communication can be a bit difficult. I called to know if we could check in earlier than planned, was asked to text instead, but didn't get a reply to my text until after we had driven to the place and found out that it wasn't possible to check it yet. Also parking is complicated, there are only a few spots in the back alley but they want to you park on the street first, then they text you little diagrams of your exact spot. Not a huge deal, and it is mentioned in the description that they don't speak much English, but still kind of annoying.
Location was very convenient for us and the place was mostly clean. Seemed to have a pretty well furnished kitchen, but we didn't use it.

CanadaEverything was fine at the accommodation facility. As a suggestion to the local government of Windsor, ON, please, arrange more road crossings for pedestrians in your city with signs and bright stripes on the road surface. It is not normal to walk for 200-300 m in a modern Canadian city to find a safe crossing.
Very friendly hosts, met me halfway all the time. Location is perfect. The Detroit River is just across the road. The railway station and the city centre are just in 15 minutes on foot in different directions. Very good coffee. The products for breakfast were fresh and of good quality for the price. Thank you, Alan, and the whole family, for your hospitality and kindness.

United StatesOne side of the bed had a huge dip in it, probably time to replace mattress, I slept in the middle so it wasn’t a big deal for me and still overall comfortable, good pillows, but something to consider if booking for two people. I also prefer accommodations with all white bedding, makes for a cleaner consistent feel.
Location was excellent. Right on the trail and minutes from the Detroit Windsor tunnel or bridge. Nicely updated private bathroom with decent water pressure. Clean room with small closet and chairs with table to set all your things. There was no balcony seating so I just used a chair from the room and put it back when finished. Nice west-facing view from balcony overlooking river and downtown Detroit. Easy self access to house and room. Other guests were no issue.
