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 StatesSaid the pool was open but the look of the color was kind of alarming lol (it was the very beginning of season) everything else was awesome.
George in the office was very accommodating and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort when the cabin i reserved turned out to be a bit too small for our group. Tons of amenities for the property, absolutely beautiful location.

United StatesYou have to put a deposit down for the cabins and if you don't clean them properly before you leave then you don't get the deposit back. The cleaning is not a normal thing that you do at a hotel/motel but it was not hard to keep the cabin clean and get your deposit back. Just follow the rules posted in the cabin. It took my group about 20 minutes to wipe down the surfaces and appliances and sweep, vacuum and swifter the cabin. Of course we didn't cook at all in the cabin so it would probably take a little longer if you had to wash dishes. The only thing that I noticed and was somewhat worried about was I didn't see a smoke / carbon monoxide detector in the cabin even though it has a gas heater and I think a gas hot water heater.
The place was clean it is not fancy but it was priced right. The owner was very knowledgeable about the area. He was nice to answer some questions about the places to see in the area. This was a good locations to see Crazy Horse , Mount Rushmore , Black Hills National Park and Hill City is a nice town to just walk through. We were not at the cabin much except to sleep. They had some nice amenities like bicycles and gold mining pans that you could use. We didn't use the pool because we didn't have time. There is a very nice trail behind the property that is excellent for running or walking and it takes you into Hill City if you want to just stretch your legs. The cabin is situated in a beautiful area. The property is very clean and nicely kept.

United StatesEverywhere I looked there were unwelcoming signs of rules and expectations stapled to the walls of the cabin, and throughout the property. It was necessary for me to sweep up, vacuum, mop, and have the owner inspect cabin and bedding before I left to assure return of my deposit. Sofa bed mattress/couch severely outdated and worn out. Very uncomfortable as either a sofa or bed.
Location was great. Unit was clean.

United StatesAll of the rules, especially the cleaning . Make sure you videotape as you're cleaning and count the pads in the swifter box. One of the rules or request is that you turn off the AC while gone. One small AC in the living area that don't even reach back to the bathroom or bedrooms. We couldn't even shower there bc it was so hot Had to shower in family's hotel. Don't expect to come back and take a cool dip into the pool bc the water is as green as the Chicago river on st pats day. Bed had thick plastic cover, for God's sake, don't do anything to soil the sheets bc either you spend the money to wash them or they're charge another fee.

United StatesI really can't think of anything I didn't like.
This is a mom and pop roadside motel and cabins in the Black Hills. The location has play areas for kids, access to the trail on the other side of the stream, and a friendly staff. Everything other than food is made available by the hosts. The owner gave me a suggestion for a site-seeing drive to experience the Black Hills for the first time.

United StatesI called the owner to inquire about the refund of the damage deposit I had not yet received more than a week after passing his inspection and checking out, as well as to share constructive feedback regarding the customer service my family and I experienced. The owner, George, quickly became argumentative and told me I was a "piece of s#*t" and that I should "f*@k off" - I did not use any foul language or even raise my voice prior to or after his colorful statements - I've censored them; he did not. After telling me to "f*@k off", then hanging up on me, George felt the need to send me a text message further berating me by implying I'm too stupid to count or "have some other issue". He references seven "working days"; I believe he meant business days, but he had never used either phrase prior to sending this lovely text message. Furthermore, George has a knack for making you feel like you are inconveniencing him by paying him hundreds of dollars to stay at his place. Needless to say, my family and I felt uncomfortable and unwelcome during our stay.
The AC barely cools the kitchen and part of the living room. The cool air does not reach the cramped bedrooms at all. The beds and couches/hide-a-beds were worn, sagging, and uncomfortable. The blankets were scratchy. There are several signs in the rooms written in a condescending tone and threatening additional fees that imply the guests are too stupid and/or inconsiderate to use common sense and show respect for the property.
