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 StatesBeing picky maybe, but there's not a lot to see and do unless you're into Mormon history. But then, learning is always a good thing!
Lovely old, OLD building; it's the kind of place you could stay an extra night and do nothing for that day but just enjoy the place where you're staying! Enjoyed chatting with the hostess after check-in and with fellow guests at breakfast.

United StatesGetting to the Inn after 7 PM was hard as the streets were blocked off due to the pageants. We had a private restroom down the hall, but we survived just fine.
The location was excellent for visiting the sites in Old Nauvoo. The history of the Willard Richards Inn drew us to the location.

United StatesNot many eating options in town but they drive to Keokuk or Ft Madison were not long and the route along the Mississippi was very scenic
very restful and relaxed atmosphere. The breakfast was well done and the hosts very friendly. We were the only couple there but it would be a great place for a couples or family stay. We enjoyed the historical places to visit and the local “merchantile.”

United StatesI was very disappointed, even somewhat shocked, at the poor upkeep of the exterior and grounds (lack of inviting landscape) of the Inn. It almost turned us away fearing that the inside would be just as unkept. Fortunately, inside was clean. It could be very pretty with all the flowers and greenery that grows in that area. It doesn't do the Inn and its place in LDS history justice to have it look so run down from the outside.
I liked the history, the memorabilia around the Inn, its authenticity and historic relics, location, informative papers explaining events and conditions at that time, the comfortable bed and the two young girls who greeted us who were very friendly.

United StatesThe hosts were practically non-existent. There was no one at the house to check us in, another couple was there talking to them on the phone to find out what they were supposed to do. In the morning the breakfast was passable but there was NO COFFEE and the only milk was almond milk. There was no interaction with the innkeepers, barely saw the man, never saw the woman.
Nicely restored home on the edge of the Nauvoo historical site.
